College of Education

Literacy education is Dr. Hancock’s passion and purpose. She has proudly served as a classroom teacher, language acquisition specialist, instructional coach, professional development coordinator, member of a campus administrative team, as well as a university instructor and researcher. As a teacher educator, she engages students with literacy methods instruction that sparks delight with the written word, magnifies historically excluded voices, provides form for vicarious experience, as well as inspires advocacy and activism. When she’s not teaching, Dr. Hancock enjoys spending time with her family as well as competing in marathons and ultramarathons.
