Biography
I am a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in Education within the Education Leadership and Policy group at the University of Glasgow.
My current research focuses on a) the impacts of education policies, curricular programs, and civic learning opportunities on civic learning outcomes, b) access to civic learning opportunities, and c) the measurement of civic learning opportunities and outcomes.
I am the co-PI of an evaluation of "Reading Like a Historian: Preparing Students to Understand the Past and Present," funded by the U.S. Department of Education in partnership with the Digital Inquiry Group (formerly the Stanford History Education Group) and the American Institutes for Research.
I have advised on evaluations of civic learning programs implemented across several school subject areas including mathematics, English language arts, and social studies such as Citizen Math, Facing History and Ourselves, and iCivics.
I currently serve as an expert on the International Civic and Citizenship Education Study (ICCS) 2027 Framework and Test Development Committee at IEA.
I previously held research positions at the American Institutes for Research (AIR), the Annenberg Institute at Brown University, the Hector Research Institute of Education Sciences and Psychology at the University of Tübingen, and Educational Testing Service (ETS).
I received a Ph.D. in educational policy from Michigan State University and an M.A. in education and social policy from New York University.
