Alma Rodriguez
Ph.D. Student in Education, admitted Autumn 2024
BioAlma Rodriguez is a third-year Ph.D. candidate at Stanford’s Graduate School of Education, specializing in Sociology of Education under the supervision of Dr. Anthony Lising Antonio. Alma is a DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) recipient who earned her Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with highest honors from the University of California, Berkeley. Her research interest focuses on the undocumented student population. During her undergrad, Alma completed her senior honor’s thesis under the supervision of the Sociology department at UC Berkeley.
At Stanford University, Alma's research sits at the intersection of social movements, undocumented student activism, and higher education. Her work examines how undocumented students in California engage in hidden forms of activism and strategic adaptation, navigating visibility, risk, and resistance in response to shifting political climates. Drawing on non-visible, everyday activism and social movement scholarship, Alma explores how undocumented students resist, and continue to exercise their political voice when visibility imposes existential risks.
A qualitative scholar by training, Alma conducts ethnographic fieldwork inside Dream Centers, centering the lived experiences and political agency of undocumented students as her primary unit of analysis. -

Jonathan Rosa
Associate Professor of Education and, by courtesy, of Linguistics, of Anthropology and of Comparative Literature
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am currently working on two book projects through which I am continuing to develop frameworks for understanding ethnoracial, linguistic, and educational formations. The first examines racial reckonings across distinctive societal contexts by interweaving ethnographic analysis of diasporic Puerto Rican experiences and broader constructions of Latinidad that illustrate race and ethnicity as colonial and communicative predicaments. The second spotlights decolonial approaches to the creation of collective well-being through educational and societal transformations based on longstanding community collaborations in Chicago.

Shima Salehi
Assistant Professor (Research) of Education
BioShima Salehi is a Research Assistant Professor at Stanford Graduate School of Education, and the director of IDEAL research lab, the research component of Stanford IDEAL initiative to promote inclusivity, diversity, equity and access in learning communities. Her research focuses on how to use different instructional practices to teach science and engineering more effectively and inclusively. For effective science and engineering education, Dr. Salehi has studied effective scientific problem-solving and developed empirical framework for main problem-solving practices to train students in. Based on these findings, she has designed instructional activities to provide students with explicit opportunities to learn these problem-solving practices. These activities have been implemented in different science and engineering courses. For Inclusive science and engineering, she examines different barriers for equity in STEM education and through what instructional and/or institutional changes they can be addressed. Her recent works focus on what are the underlying mechanisms for demographic performance gaps in STEM college education, and what instructional practices better serve students from different demographic backgrounds. Salehi holds a PhD in Learning Sciences and a PhD minor in Psychology from Stanford University, and received a B.Sc. degree in Electrical Engineering from Sharif University of Technology, Iran. She is the founder of KhanAcademyFarsi, a non-profit educational organization which has provided service to Farsi-speaking students, particularly in under-privileged areas.
