Biography
Dr. Hughes’ current research is focused on critical media literacy and gender studies. In her present work teaching literacy and technology (CTL7000, CTL7016), Dr. Hughes leads students in a critical examination of issues in literacy, including the role of media in challenging gender inequity. Her critical arts-based research course (CTL1099) draws on her cross-disciplinary doctoral research that utilized institutional ethnography (IE) as a method of inquiry to examine homeless individuals' unique health care challenges and barriers to medical and behavioural health care (primary care, substance use, mental health).
