His main research interests include learning motivation of students and teachers, self-regulated learning in various educational contexts, instructional research as well as diversity issues in primary and secondary education. Within the field of self-regulated learning his primary research focus is on the self-regulation of achievement motivation as an important type of resource management. This research uses various perspectives on underlying competences, situational specificity, proximal and distal consequences, as well as training of motivational regulation.

Nancy Perry

 

Abstract

Nancy Perry is the Dorothy Lam Chair in Special Education and Professor of Educational and Counselling Psychology and Special Education at the University of British Columbia (UBC), Canada. Her research has two main goals: (a) understanding how classroom processes are implicated in children’s development of self-regulated learning (SRL); and (b) working with teachers to design activities and structure interactions with students that support SRL. Nancy Perry is a main contributor to our understanding that young children can and do regulate for learning and how classroom tasks, instructional practices, and interpersonal relationships influence their SRL. She is also a leader in the development and use of measures, beyond self-report tools, that reveal children’s self-regulation in situ. Finally, Nancy Perry has served as President of Division 15, Educational Psychology, of the American Psychological Association, and the Canadian Association of Educational Psychologists, and on editorial boards of the top journals in Educational Psychology, including the Journal of Educational Psychology, Educational Psychologist, Journal of Learning and Instruction, and Metacognition and Learning.
