Emma Liptrot

I am a PhD student in the Learning Sciences program at McGill University in the Department of Educational and Counselling Psychology.

My research interests are in educational technology, particularly educational apps and games. My work focuses on evaluating the educational quality of apps that children use to learn and practice skills.

Previously, my master’s research investigated how parents and educators use information in app stores to choose good apps. Ultimately, I want to improve learning outcomes by helping parents and educators choose high quality educational apps.
