Winterbottom, Christian – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2013
Japanese immigrants have been living in the United States for nearly 150 years.

In an attempt to understand this phenomenon, this paper…

Malinowski, David – L2 Journal, 2016
Building upon paradigms of language and languaging practices as "local" phenomena (Canagarajah, 2013; Pennycook, 2010, Pietikäinen & Kelly-Holmes, 2013), this paper narrates a teacher's experience in an undergraduate seminar in applied language studies as an exploration in transdisciplinarity-as-localization. Taught by the author in…

Wenger, Gina Mumma – Studies in Art Education: A Journal of Issues and Research in Art Education, 2012
What did art education look like within the confines of the Japanese American Internment Camp classrooms? Did the art education in the camps reflect the same curriculum that was being taught outside the camps and what other factors may have played a part in the students' experience? I propose that there were at least three significant…
