My main research area is curriculum development. I am also interested in early 20th century German cultural studies, specifically the analysis of cultural expressions of women's experience in war. I work with many of our graduate students as an advisor and mentor for their teaching practice. This work includes exploring approaches to teaching, planning lessons and delivery of planned lessons.
