The UMBC Department of Education Research Seminar concludes the spring semester with a presentation by Dr. Christine Mallinson, Professor in the Language, Literacy, and Culture doctoral program and Assistant Vice President for Research and Scholarly Impact.  In this presentation, Professor Mallinson illustrates equity-oriented models for linguistic research with examples from her own interdisciplinary and collaborative work that has expanded public understanding of language and helped sustain linguistic diversity in schools and communities. She offers strategies and action steps for other scholars of language and education who aim to connect community-engaged work with teaching and research for broad scholarly as well as social and public impact.
