Aaminah Norris is a doctoral candidate in the Graduate School of Education. She is interested in uncovering the relationships between emerging technologies and the instantiation of self-perceptions, racialized and gendered identities, and appropriated ideas. Aaminah's research and teaching foci include: 1) how emerging technologies influence the literacy practices of students from traditionally under-resourced schools, 2) the relationships between gendered and racialized identity processes in urban schooling contexts and the use of digital and social media, and 3) how 21st century pedagogical approaches inform the learning of African American and immigrant students. Aaminah's future research and teaching will explore how self-concepts inform identity processes for traditionally marginalized youth in formal and informal learning environments.
