Profile
Faythe Beauchemin is an Assistant Professor at the Lynch School of Education and Human Development, specializing in the areas of language and literacy. Through her research, she explores how students聽and聽their聽teachers use聽critical literacies聽to build relationships and communities in classrooms that provide deep, academically excellent learning experiences while nurturing聽linguistic justice, belonging, and intellectual excitement.听She is particularly interested in how聽classroom聽interactions hold the potential to affirm and聽re-value聽young children's聽perspectives,聽languages, cultures and聽transnational聽knowledges in instruction.
As a professor of teacher education, she hopes to support pre-service and in-service teachers as they grapple with the聽multi-layered nature聽of classroom interactions that unfold during literacy instruction. In particular, she focuses on developing teachers' capacities to engage in聽the complex and multidimensional process of聽early聽reading and writing聽instruction through case studies and discourse analytic methods.
Her work has appeared in journals such as Journal of Early Childhood Literacy, Linguistics and Education, Literacy Research: Theory Method and Practice, English Teaching: Practice and Critique and English Journal. She聽serves as the聽Secretary/Treasurer of the American Educational Research Association (AERA) Language and Social Processes SIG and as an Executive Board Member for the National Council for Teachers of English Assembly for Research (NCTEAR). She also serves on the editorial boards of Research in the Teaching of English and Childhood Art.
