About
Detra Price‐Dennis is a leading scholar in literacy education, whose work centers on the intersections of digital media, equity, and teacher education. Her research critically examines how marginalized youth, particularly Black and Brown students, engage with multimodal and digital composing practices, and how educators can design more inclusive literacy curricula. A notable contribution is her role in the intergenerational dialogue captured in "Generative AI and composing: an intergenerational conversation among literacy scholars" (2023, 23 citations), where she helped foreground urgent questions about the impact of artificial intelligence on writing instruction and equity. This work reflects her broader commitment to ensuring that technological shifts do not deepen existing disparities in literacy learning. Price‐Dennis has also published extensively on culturally sustaining pedagogies and the use of digital tools to amplify student voice. Her scholarship, widely cited by literacy researchers and teacher educators, has shaped conversations around critical digital literacies and antiracist teaching practices. Through her research, mentorship, and editorial leadership, she continues to influence how the field understands literacy as a dynamic, socially situated practice in an increasingly digital world.
