Rate My Professor Roxana Marachi

Marachi's research publications have focused on evaluations of policies and programs related to school violence prevention, high-stakes testing, privatization, and the technologization of teaching and learning.

Key publications include "The case of Canvas: Longitudinal datafication through learning management systems" (2020, co-authored with L.
