Learning, Literacies and Technologies, PhD

Arizona State University - Kaplan International

The Doctor of Philosophy program in learning, literacies and technologies is designed to prepare scholars who address socially significant educational programs and transform pre-K--20 educational programs through rigorous research, transdisciplinary engagements and educational interventions. Students rely on multiple theoretical and methodological perspectives to explore, influence and transform educational institutions and their practices. Students begin engaging in research studies during their first semester and continue throughout the four-year program. Faculty members with diverse disciplinary backgrounds collaborate with doctoral students, individually and in teams, to design powerful studies, implement them in authentic settings, collect and analyze data, write research reports, and present and publish research primarily in academic journals. Students prepare to enter the academy and to conduct theoretical, conceptual and humanities-based educational research. Students in these areas are encouraged to apply to the program.
