Jillian Hogan is a Ph.D. student in Developmental Psychology in the Arts & Mind Lab at Boston College. She holds an M.M. and B.M. in Music Education and Clarinet Performance from Boston Conservatory and has additional training in Montessori and Orff-Schulwerk approaches. In her research, she uses mixed methods to investigate what we learn through arts education and how those findings align with public perceptions. Her primary interest is the teaching and learning of habits of mind in visual art and music education, which is informed by teaching for six years in schools that specialize in gifted, inclusion, and autism spectrum disorder populations. A happy introvert, she wrote this book under the watchful eye of her two cats. www.jillhoganinboston.com www.studiothinking.org
