Research Description:

My primary research interest centers on children’s longitudinal grammatical development with a focus on adult input and intervention. The long-term goal of my research is to develop and disseminate grammatical and narrative interventions for preschool children with language impairment and language-learning vulnerabilities. A secondary area of research interest is the scholarship of teaching and learning.
