Elisabeth Schussler
University of Tennessee, Knoxville Professor, Ecology & Evolutionary Biology
The primary research focus of Dr. Schussler’s lab is the shaping of undergraduate learning environments to foster meaningful student learning. Although learning environments are organized around specific curricula, the effectiveness of the curriculum is often impacted by the instructor and/or student perception of the instructor. Much of my research has focused on this interplay between curricula and the instructor and how it affects student affect such as anxiety or perceptions of instructor support. Graduate students in my lab have been working recently on factors related to the success and career trajectories of graduate students.
