Educational psychology professor William Bart and his former graduate advisee, Seth Langley, Ph.D., are the recipients of the 2010 Outstanding Research Award from the New York College Learning Skills Association. This award recognizes the excellence of their article “Examining Self-Regulatory Factors that influence the Academic Achievement of Underprepared Students,” which appeared in the fall 2008 issue of Research and Teaching in Developmental Education. Langley is currently assistant director of research development at the State University of New York (SUNY), Downstate Medical Center.
According to Amy Crouse-Powers, the president of the New York College Learning Skills Association, the research article “positively contributes to the field of developmental education and ultimately benefits students. We thank you for your work in this important area.”
