About
Research Interest
I study teaching and learning with visual data, in history and social science classrooms from middle school through college, museums, and public discussions. Most of my work is located in Chicago communities and public schools, using data maps and other visualization tools to help people reason and argue about complex social phenomena - change over time, race and racism, narrative and identity. Theoretical frameworks include sociocultural, socio-cognitive and critical lenses. Methods include design-based research, and analyses of discourse, interaction, narrative and representational practices.
