Ongoing Research Projects

Service Learning in Technical and Professional Communication through Social Justice and Intercultural Frameworks: A Multisite Study

  • Supported by the CPTSC Grant, this project seeks to understand how programmatic actions in TPC clarify issues of social justice and intercultural communication in service-learning programs. In this project, we are conducting survey and focus group discussions with different kinds of postsecondary institutions with the U.S. and beyond, including land grant universities, SLACs, community colleges, tribal colleges, Hispanic-Serving Institutions, and HBCUs. Project in collaboration with Dr. Jessica Edwards, Dr. Jennifer Sano-Franchini, Dr. Josephine Walwema

Citation Project with Studies in Writing and Rhetoric

  • The Citation Matters project via Studies in Writing and Rhetoric Board about whether its own publishing record adequately met such critiques. The project aims at creating a databse which would document how the field was currently engaging with scholars of color and, additionally, international scholars of color. Project in collaboration with Ellen Cushman, Khirsten Scott, Laura Gonzales, Haivan Hoang, Paula Mathieu, Steve Parks, Staci Perryman-Clark, Jacqueline Rhodes, Tiffany Rousculp, Kevin Smith, Bo Wang
