I am a Comparative Educator and an Associate Professor of Educational Policy Studies. In that capacity, I teach Foundations courses in the teacher preparation programs as well as instructing graduate students in international/comparative education and in educational policy studies. I conduct research on education and cultural change both outside and inside the U.S., with research and publications on educational policy formation in international assistance agencies; gender and education in the Third World; comparative multicultural policies; the sources and forms of global awareness among children and youth in the U.S.; and on citizenship and education around the world.
