Research interests

Dr Carolina Kuepper-Tetzel (CPsychol, SFHEA) is a Senior Lecturer in the School of Psychology & Neuroscience at the University of Glasgow, an expert in applying Cognitive Psychology to education, and an enthusiastic science communicator. She leads the TILE Network (https://tile.psy.gla.ac.uk/) and is one of the Learning Scientists (https://www.learningscientists.org/).

Carolina obtained her Ph.D. in Cognitive Psychology from the University of Mannheim, Germany, and pursued postdoc positions at York University in Toronto, Canada, and the Center for Integrative Research in Cognition, Learning, and Education at Washington University in St. Louis, USA. Before joining the University of Glasgow, she was a Lecturer in Psychology at the University of Dundee, UK.

Carolina's expertise focuses on learning and memory phenomena that allow implementation to educational settings to offer teachers and students a wide range of strategies that promote long-term retention. She is convinced that psychological research should serve the public and engages in various scholarly outreach activities. She is passionate about research-informed teaching and aims to provide her students with the best learning experience possible. She has delivered workshops and talks on research-informed teaching to schools and at teacher conferences worldwide.

Carolina is on the advisory boards for Evidence-Based Education (https://evidencebased.education/) and for a project of the National Institute of Teaching (https://niot.org.uk/). She is also an Associate Editor for the Journal of Experimental Psychology: Applied.
