Robyn Ilten-Gee

Dr. Ilten-Gee's primary research interests are in children's moral / social development and reasoning, critical and social justice pedagogy, and digital media. She takes a critical approach to moral development, investigating ways in which a developmental framework can illuminate possibilities for critical pedagogy and critical moral reasoning.

She is especially interested in how digital media production (e.g. podcasting, multimedia journalism) in classroom settings facilitates a process of students rethinking and revising conclusions and judgments about the world and themselves.

As part of enacting critical moral development in the classroom, she is interested in culturally-sustaining frameworks of social-emotional education and opening decolonizing possibilities in educational psychology. She is currently the PI on a Spencer Racial Equity Grant examining teachers' digital racial literacies, with Drs. Jabari Mahiri and Pooja Dharamshi.
