Doctor of Philosophy in Teaching and Learning, Policy and Leadership - Language, Literacy, and Social Inquiry

This program leads to a Ph.D. in Teaching and Learning, Policy and Leadership with a specialization in Language, Literacy, and Social Inquiry. The Ph.D. specialization in Language, Literacy, and Social Inquiry (LLSI) provides students with a broad conceptual understanding of language and literacy research and offers a choice between two areas of focus within the program: Applied Linguistics and Language Education and Literacy Education.Faculty research interests in the Applied Linguistics and Language Education (ALLE) area of focus include classroom discourse, conversational analysis, dual language learner education, language and literacy teacher development, language assessment policy, language contact and multilingualism, language diversity, language in school contexts, language planning and policy, multilingualism, peer interaction, second language teaching, sociocultural approaches to second language acquisition, teacher collaboration, codeswitching, and translanguaging. Faculty research interests in the Literacy Education area of focus include culturally responsive approaches to elementary reading instruction, emergent literacy, family literacy, preparing teachers for diversity, learning with text, literacy teaching and learning, new literacies, reading assessment, reading comprehension strategies, stasis theory, and vocabulary for literacy learning.The doctoral program is primarily focused on the study of language and literacy learning in pre-kindergarten through high school settings in the US. It is designed to prepare students as researchers, curriculum specialists, teacher educators, and educational leaders who work effectively with children, families, and communities engaged in diverse language, literacy and social practices. Students first take an integrated set of seminars designed to provide an overview of the field and engage in research apprenticeship experiences with faculty, then develop a tailored program of study fitting their specific research interests through a selection of elective courses offered within our department, or from other departments and programs within the University.
