​

I am a professor in the Lynch School of Education and Human Development at Boston College, and director of the Curriculum & Instruction doctoral program. I have served as an associate editor at Child Development, Applied Psycholinguistics, and an editor at Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools. I was a bilingual teacher in Detroit, MI and have worked in district, state, and nonprofit settings. I work with bilingual learners from multilingual homes in K-8 settings, thinking about  language use and development, cross-linguistic relations, instructional interventions, and teacher practice. I've published a bunch of articles and book chapters, and have developed language and reading curricula. I always work in close collaboration with teachers to facilitate the translation of research to practice.

Mexican-American studies being reinstated in Tuscon

7/30/2013

I missed this last week, so maybe old new to some, but I thought it was still worth posting. A federal court order is requiring that Tuscon reinstate the 2010 banning of Mexican-American studies at the high school. They had to change the name to "culturally-relevant classes", which seems just plain silly to have to do. Still, presumably a victory for the linguistic and cultural rights activists who have fought so tirelessly for this cause. Here is a link to the NPR story from July 24th. Will post more as information becomes available.
