Dr. Vincent Hoogerheide is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Education at Utrecht University. He obtained both his MSc (2011) and PhD (2016) in Educational Psychology from Utrecht University, graduating cum laude on both occasions—the highest academic distinction in the Netherlands.

His research focuses on video-based learning and centers on three interrelated themes. First, he investigates the conditions under which instructional videos in online learning environments enhance students' learning and motivation. Second, he examines self-regulated learning (SRL), with a particular emphasis on how video examples can foster students' self-regulation skills. Third, he studies learning-by-teaching, especially through student-generated vlogs in which learners explain newly acquired knowledge to a peer.

Vincent has established a strong international research profile. He has published many articles in top journals. In 2022, he was identified as the fourth most productive junior researcher in educational psychology worldwide, based on publication output in five leading educational psychology journals. In 2024, he was ranked as the 33rd most productive researcher in educational psychology worldwide, based on publications in six leading journals.

In addition to his research, Vincent plays an active role in the international educational research community. From 2021 to 2025, he served as Senior Coordinator of Special Interest Group 7 (Technology-enhanced Learning and Instruction) of the European Association for Research on Learning and Instruction (EARLI). He was Associate Editor of Applied Cognitive Psychology (2020–2023) and has guest-edited several special issues in international journals.

Vincent has successfully secured competitive research funding as both principal investigator and collaborator, including a Rubicon Grant from the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO) for a research stay at the University of Freiburg, a Jacobs Foundation Grant, an Incentive Grant on vlogging as a homework strategy, and two grants awarded in 2025 for the Immune Patrol project on game-based education about immunity and vaccination.

He is actively involved in supervising early-career researchers and serves as co-promotor of four PhD candidates, one of whom has successfully completed the PhD and three who are currently pursuing their doctoral research. Vincent is also committed to high-quality, research-informed teaching and contributes to both undergraduate and graduate education at Utrecht University. He coordinates the Master's course Leren en ontwikkeling van individuen, teams en organisaties and the Bachelor's courses Ontwerpen van Leersituaties: Gevorderd and Education & ICT. In recognition of his dedication to teaching, he received the 2025 VOCUS Best Teacher Award.
