Prof. dr. Fred Paas

Fred Paas is professor of Educational Psychology at Erasmus University Rotterdam and a professorial fellow at the University of Wollongong in Australia. He is one of the developers of the Cognitive Load Theory, which is one of the most influential theories on instructional design. The theory uses evolutionary theory to consider human cognitive architecture and uses that architecture to devise novel, instructional procedures. His research is multidisciplinary, focusing on the design of effective and efficient learning environments. His recent research interests include the role of the physical environment in cognition and learning, evolutionary approaches to cognitive load and learning, and the effects of physical activities on cognition and learning. 

Dr. Kim Ouwehand

Kim Ouwehand is an assistant professor at the department of Psychology, Education & Child Studies/Educational and Developmental Psychology at Erasmus School of Social and Behavioural Sciences, Erasmus University Rotterdam. Her research focus is twofold. The first line focuses on learning in individuals with a main interest in optimising human information processing (i.e. memory and learning) by studying instructional and environmental (physcial and social environment) factors. The second line of interest focuses on teacher and school characteristics in relation to effective school policy and teacher wellbeing. She investigates these subjects with the Teacher and Learning International Survey for which she participated as data analyst in 2018.

Dr. Lesya Ganushchak

Lesya Ganushchak is an assistant professor at the department of Psychology, Education & Child Studies/Educational and Developmental Psychology at Erasmus School of Social and Behavioural Sciences, Erasmus University Rotterdam. Her research interests are related to language processing. Her current research is centred on the fundamental aspects of reading comprehension as well as developing interventions that improve reading comprehension. But also, topics such as (self) monitoring your own comprehension, bilingual language production and comprehension are part of her research interests. She examines these questions using behavioural, electroencephalogram recordings (EEG), and eye-tracking methods.

Martine Baars

Dr. Martine Baars

Martine Baars, Ph.D., is an educational psychologist at the Department of Psychology, Education and Child Studies.
