Ana Solano-Campos is an Assistant Professor of Teacher Education, Literacy, and ELLs in the College of Education and Human Development at the University of Massachusetts-Bostonhere. Her work on sociolinguistics and education in transnational contexts investigates the mechanisms by which different approaches to linguistic diversity exacerbate or diminish existing educational inequities for immigrant and refugee learners. She asks: What are the barriers experienced by bilingual immigrant/refugee students (and their teachers) in schools? How can we find avenues to diminish or eliminate those barriers? She has primarily examined the differences between South-North and South-South processes of migrant incorporation, specifically in educational settings in the United States and Costa Rica. Her scholarship proposes a focus on shared civic histories, practices, and spaces across geopolitical contexts. Recent publications: Solano-Campos, A. (Forthcoming). The Nicaraguan diaspora in Costa Rica: Schools and the disruption of transnational social fields. Anthropology and Education Quarterly. Solano-Campos, A. (2017). Language ideologies in a U.S. state-funded international school: The invisible linguistic repertoires of bilingual refugee students. Journal of Research in International Education, 16(1), 36-54.
