RESEARCH INTERESTS

My research focuses on developing interventions that support teaching practices and improve learning outcomes for K-12 students with mild to moderate instructional support needs. Currently, I am investigating the effects of using the Self-Regulated Strategy Development (SRSD) framework—a strategic approach to developing written expression skills and self-regulation in the writing process when constructing arguments.
