Bio
Jessica Vergano
It’s been a pleasure working with Jolene. Her extraordinary depth of knowledge in Learning Sciences research has been a valuable resource to me, and I’m sure all of her OE colleagues, as we develop a large and complex menu of products and services to serve teachers and students. She understands learning research, skill development, pedagogical approaches and methodologies better than anyone. She creates thoughtful and well-researched content and provides clear direction to her colleagues to elevate their work. Jolene is also great at bringing people and teams together to solve problems collaboratively and developing pitch-perfect prompts to create productive conversations among colleagues.
