Dwayne Paré is a cognitive psychologist and the associate director of the Advanced Learning Technologies Lab at the University of Toronto. He is also the co-founder and CEO of Cogneeto Inc, an edtech company whose primary mission is to build evidence-based technologies that will best prepare students for success, leadership, and to be innovative thinkers. His doctoral research focused on the efficacy of formative feedback using peer and self-assessment – which lead to the creation of peerScholar. Although he has spent much of the past year working from home (like many of us), he has found his silver lining of getting to spend family time with his wife and two young children.
