Background
Research
There is so much information available online – how do people find what they need, decide what to believe, and avoid the many distractions the Internet brings? These are the kinds of questions Greene explores in his research. Together with his students and collaborators from the School of Education, the greater UNC community, and around the world, Greene studies how to help students self-regulate their learning so that they can maximize their potential online and in the classroom. In addition, he studies how to help students be better critical consumers, users, and producers of knowledge. His work shows teaching the science of learning to students results in better, deeper thinkers who can experience greater academic and lifelong success.
