Presenter

Mr. Gregory McGowin is a PhD candidate in the Modeling and Simulation program at the University of Central Florida and is a recipient of the Multidisciplinary Doctoral Fellowship. His multidisciplinary research explores the intersection of cognition, technology, and learning, with a current focus on XR—specifically Immersive VR—and their applications in learning sciences. Grounded in the philosophical and cognitive sciences theory of 4E cognition, his work investigates how technology can have transformative effects on learning and training, especially when integrated with interdisciplinary principles and frameworks.
