Dr. Grammer studies how experiences in school shape students’ cognitive development and learning. Drawing on methods from developmental psychology, education, and neuroscience, she focuses on processes – including executive functions, self-regulation, attention, memory, and metacognition – that play an important role in academic growth and social interactions in school. For the past decade, Dr. Grammer has been conducting neuroscientific research directly in schools and classrooms to characterize the complex interactions between students and their environments that propel developmental change. In doing so, she works to identify classroom-based strategies that teachers can use to develop more equitable learning opportunities for their students.
