Stephanie Power‐Carter

Stephanie Power-Carter studies how language, race, and literacy intersect in classrooms and educational settings, using detailed discourse analysis methods to examine how students and teachers communicate and how power relations shape these interactions. Her work often focuses on issues of race, silence, and self-expression in schooling contexts, including how Black students use writing as a form of empowerment. Much of her recent output centers on developing and explaining a specific analytic method called microethnographic discourse analysis for studying language and literacy events in schools.

Publication activity was steady at about one per year through 2020, then increased sharply in 2021-2022 (likely tied to a multi-chapter book project) before settling back to a more moderate pace in recent years.
