Theresa Rogers

Professor
Department of Language and Literacy Education (LLED)

Dr. Roger’s research focuses on how youth/adolescents use literacy practices in learning and civic engagement in formal and informal educational contexts. Her work extends the notion of literacy practices to include a range of media, arts, and critical practices. She has been particularly interested in examining the literacies of disenfranchised youth, including street youth, as productive, critical and engaged practices. She also does research on critical perspectives in teaching literature in classrooms.
