Research

research overview

  • Dr. Montiegel is a qualitative researcher whose interests center on language and interaction in social institutions and how social actions, relationships and identities are constructed, invoked, and negotiated to accomplish certain goals in a variety of settings. She has applied these interests to two main areas, instructional settings and political contexts. She is currently launching a new research program that aims to understand how social equity/inequity and equality/inequality in the larger special education system might be reflected in interactions on the ground level, particularly in the context of Individualized Education Program (IEP) meetings.
