Alfredo J. Artiles is the Lee L. Jacks Professor of Education at Stanford University. His scholarship examines equity paradoxes created by educational policies. He studies how responses to disability intersections with race, language, gender, and social class can unwittingly stratify educational opportunities for disparate groups and is advancing responses to these inequities. He and his colleagues have led national and regional technical assistance initiatives to address educational inequities. Artiles has received numerous recognitions for his scholarship, including the American Educational Research Association (AERA)’s Palmer O. Johnson Award and the AERA Review of Research Award. He edits the book series Disability, Culture, & Equity (Teachers College Press). He has been appointed to three consensus panels of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine. Artiles served on the Obama White House Commission on Educational Excellence for Hispanics. He is an elected member of the National Academy of Education and Fellow of AERA and NEPC. He was a resident fellow at the Center for Advanced Studies in the Behavioral Sciences.
