In today's reform context, much attention is placed on policies and outcomes and far less emphasis on understanding the social and cultural processes in schools.

Christmas, William A. – Journal of American College Health, 2008
In 1964, Eric Berne, MD, captured one's imagination when he wrote "Games People Play", in which he described some common life experiences as repetitive social exercises requiring participants to assume specific roles to achieve an objective or situation about which they were not always aware.

In this case study, we are able to take a close look at a situation not often encountered in the literature on ICTs in emerging economies: a private company from an emerging economy provided much-needed funding for a US NASA higher learning consortium through a contract for training and research and development in 3D visualization. This study…

Ness, Molly K.; Osborn, Terry A. – Critical Inquiry in Language Studies, 2010
Reading teacher education, as is true with much of higher education, is plagued with pressures of providing "here and now" answers to very complex, entangled issues.
