Biography
Nathan is working within the Classroom Assessment Research Team (CART) and the Assessment and Evaluation Group (AEG). Nathan’s research focuses on how educators can leverage classroom assessment to enhance students’ learning. Drawing on self-regulated learning theories and learning analytics, he examines the cognitive and affective mechanisms of students engaged in self-assessment to support teachers in fostering lifelong learners. His hope to one day model internal self-assessment processes is informed by his work as a high school English teacher wherein he observed self-assessment's central role in empowering agentic learners.
