Dr. Olivia G. Stewart is an Assistant Professor of Literacy at St. John's University in New York City. Her research interests center on the inclusion of critical digital literacies and multimodal assignments in classrooms, particularly for academically marginalized students, to counter traditional power structures often found in increasingly outdated school policies and oppressive systems. She examines how students can use various digital media for authorship that allows them to make meaning in non-traditional forms to push back on “what counts” as writing in today’s classrooms. From a critical theoretical perspective, she also examines how teachers and students can co-create spaces to understand the relationships between power and language and the inherently non-neutral ideologies that are conveyed through texts. She has also applied this critical lens to: 1) research surrounding AI, creating a framework for critically engaging AI in education, 2) and humanizing online learning environments, conducting studies on humanizing online courses to improve equity and to explore what elements serve to best humanize courses, focusing on multimodality and other contributing factors.
