About me
Majid Komasi is a Doctoral Student in Learning Design and Technology at NC State University's College of Education, where he works as a Graduate Research Assistant affiliated with the Literacy and Community Initiative (LCI). His research focuses on the intersections of multimodal literacy, culturally responsive pedagogy, and technology-enhanced learning, with particular attention to immigrant and refugee youth in community-based settings. Drawing on his multilingual and multicultural background, Komasi brings a situated perspective to questions of identity, belonging, and self-expression in literacy education. He has contributed to research presented at national conferences including AERA and NCTEAR, and is currently involved in the Artful Narratives project in partnership with Dr. Angela Wiseman. His work at LCI centers on supporting adolescent literacy development through arts-based and trauma-informed approaches that honor the lived experiences and cultural wisdom of refugee and immigrant communities.
