My work focuses o­n (1) understanding adolescent language and literacy development, and (2) creating and testing interventions to improve adolescent literacy outcomes. I am particularly interested in interventions and instruction that support reluctant adolescent readers, and individual differences in learning from in-school and out-of-school activities.
