Katie E. Davis
Katie Davis is a Project Manager at Harvard Project Zero, where she works with Dr. Howard Gardner and colleagues on a number of projects investigating the role of digital media technologies in adolescents' academic, social, and moral lives. She also serves as an Advisory Board Member for MTV's digital abuse campaign, A Thin Line. In addition to publishing and presenting her research in scholarly venues, Katie regularly shares her work with parents, teachers, and school administrators in an effort to build connections between educational research and practice.
In 2011, Katie graduated from Harvard Graduate School of Education with a doctorate in Human Development and Education. For her doctoral thesis, she undertook a research project in Bermuda's secondary schools entitled "The development of self and relationships in 21st century contexts." The project explored adolescents' sense of identity and the role that parents, friends, and digital media technologies play in the construction of the self.
Katie also holds a master's degree from Harvard in Mind, Brain, and Education and another in Risk and Prevention. Prior to coming to Harvard in 2005, she taught second grade in Framingham, MA, and fourth grade in Bermuda, her native country.
