Biography
My research interests are aimed toward literacy practices and how contexts influence learning of adolescents in urban environments.
I am also interested in exploring students understandings of their own learning in school and out of school spaces. I use qualitative and design-based research methods to explore students experiential knowledge and their evolving disciplinary-specific literacy and understanding. Other related interests include classroom discourse and how it shapes teaching and learning.
