Inquiry and scholarship

in the intersections of language, literacy and culture in educational settings
Scholars pursuing an Education Specialist (EdS) or Doctorate in Education (PhD) in Language, Literacy, and Culture Education engage in inquiry and scholarship at the intersections of language, literacies, and culture in K-12 and adult educational settings. Students and faculty examine ways to create transformative educational spaces that enrich, empower, and advocate for all learners. Our scholarship and praxis in language, literacies, and culture education (LLCE) explores the sociocultural contexts of learning, promotes digital and global perspectives on language and literacies education, and advances expertise in the complexities of communicating and engaging in K-12 pedagogies that foster equity and inclusion. 
The LLC program degrees are offered in person, primarily on the Stillwater campus, with some courses offered in a hybrid online format. They are not fully online degrees and do require a portion of in person coursework.

Program Pillars

Our degree studies focus on the ways in which language, literacies and culture are integrally linked in K-12 and adult teaching and learning contexts. We examine the social, cultural and political constructions and institutions that affect language, literacies and culture education from various theoretical lenses and through diverse research methodologies. Much of our coursework and scholarship aligns with the following five disciplinary pillars:

  • Sociocultural perspectives on LLCE
  • LLCE social justice and equity
  • LLCE leadership, policy, agency and advocacy
  • Literacies and language education
  • New literacies studies
  • Children’s and young adult literature
