Sandra Weber is Professor of Education, a Fellow of the Simone de Beauvoir Institute at Concordia University in Montreal, and Co-director of the Image and Identity Research Collective (see www.iirc.mcgill.ca). In addition to acting as Principal Investigator of the Digital Girls Research Project funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC), she is also leading an interdisciplinary, funded project on dress, body, and identity. Her passions include exploring the many uses artists and scholars can make of visual research methods and searching for ways to make research less hierarchical and more accessible to the public through film, performance, and collaborations with others. Her publications include 2 co-authored books, 2 co-edited books, 4 videos, an art installation, a play, and over 38 articles and book chapters. The courses she teaches usually focus on one or more of the following areas: popular culture, material culture, and the technology of childhood, literacy issues in first and second language acquisition; issues concerning language, gender, and identity; self-study and professional development. She confesses that she has a hard time making any distinctions whatsoever between work and play.
