ABOUT

Claire E. Cameron holds the title of Associate Professor in the Department of Learning and Instruction at the University at Buffalo (SUNY), where she teaches Mixed Methods and Doctoral Writing.  Claire studies how children develop “learning to learn” and school readiness skills like managing attention and behavior and successfully navigating learning environments. She’s best known for her research to develop the Head-Toes-Knees-Shoulders (HTKS) task, a game-like assessment for children that has been translated into over thirty languages. She also developed the Motor Skills Rating Scale (MSRS), a teacher-report survey of children’s motor skills in the classroom.

Bio
In 2007, Claire earned a PhD from the University of Michigan’s Combined Program in Education and Psychology. Before taking the position in Buffalo, she lived in Charlottesville, VA, where she completed a postdoctoral fellowship (2007-2009) and served as Research Scientist (2009-2015) at the University of Virginia’s Center for Advanced Study of Teaching and Learning (CASTL) and helped found a writing group called BACCA Literary.
