Lisa F. Smith (formerly Wolf) is a US-New Zealand education academic. She is currently a full professor at the University of Otago.[1]

Academic career

Smith attended Rutgers University in New Jersey for a 1993 Ed.D titled 'The effects of motivation and anxiety on test performance' before working in New Jersey and New York, both teaching and researching in museums (including The Met) with her partner Jeffrey K. Smith. The pair moved to the University of Otago in 2005, both rising to full professor.[1][2][3]

In addition to her museum work, much of Smith's research involves visual perception in a learning context and creativity.
