Teens, Technology, and Transformation
Dr. Cox is an Associate Professor in the School of Education at Utah Valley University, where she works to help prospective junior high and high school faculty better understand the psychological landscape of their students in order to improve classroom climates and instruction. Her research interests include developmental neuropsychology, technology integration, and learner-centered teaching. She is particularly interested in finding ways to engage students in deeper learning using technology and in the technology-life balance. Dr. Cox has presented at numerous local, regional, national, and international conferences, including the prestigious Learning and the Brain conference in Boston, MA and San Francisco, CA. She also conducts workshops for teachers and students about brain development in an effort to help both groups better understand the adolescent mind and strategies we can all use to make the most of this amazing period of development.
