My research and teaching are in the field of equity and social justice education, with a focus on anti-racism, feminism, anticolonial, critical multicultural education, and the impact of globalization, internationalization, and neoliberal policy reform in education. My research and teaching on race, class, and gender grew out of my commitment and passion for equity and social justice education. I received the Faculty Scholar’s Award from the University of Western Ontario for recognition of my achievement in teaching and research.
Currently I am working on 2 SSHRC funded research project; one working on accountability and large-scale testing and its impact on teachers, administrators and racialized students. The other project deals with the enactment of equity education policy in Ontario. I have published several books and numerous papers in refereed journals. I have supervised more than 50 graduate students (19 PhD, 36 Masters).
