Biography
Stephanie F. Reid (she/her) is an Assistant Professor in the Literacy and Second Language Studies program in the School of Education. She is a first-generation college student from an industrial and historic town in Kent, England. She studied English Literature at the University of Cambridge (BA and MA) and then secondary English education at the University of Oxford. She achieved her MA in Education and K-12 Reading Teacher endorsement at Hamline University and her doctoral degree in Learning, Literacies, and Technologies at Arizona State University (2020). Prior to pursuing her doctorate and her career she was a middle school Language Arts and/or Reading teacher for 15 years in both England and the US. She earned national, state, and local recognition for her teaching excellence.
Stephanie’s current research and scholarship is organized around three key strands: (1) Content analyses of visual and multimodal texts relevant to education and literacy pedagogy (e.g., picturebooks, middle-grade multimodal novels, TIME magazine covers representing education issues). (2) Explorations of multimodal approaches to literacy and content area pedagogy in K-12 school contexts (with an emphasis on co-designing curricula with teachers and students). (3) Interdisciplinary and collaborative research that explores how literacy scholarship intersects with knowledge-building in other fields (e.g., special education and art education) to understand how educators might work across disciplinary boundaries to benefit children and youth in PK-12 formal and informal educational spaces.
Stephanie has published her scholarship across various venues, including The Reading Teacher, Visual Communication, Written Communication, the Journal of Language and Literacy, the Theory and Research in Social Education, and Voices from the Middle. She has also presented her scholarship and shared pedagogical ideas at international, national, and state conferences.
