Email communication is pervasive in faculty interaction. As there exists status imbalance between students and professors in this type of context, emails are expected to cater for the uneven power relationships by means of using appropriate polite features. Previous research (e.g., Eslami, 2013; Salazar-Campillo & Codina-Espurz, in press) has…

The Common Core State Standards, released in 2010, were rapidly adopted by more than 40 states.

What kind of impact, if any, has it had on the…

The primary objective of this dissertation was to help illuminate why most students who enroll in developmental English at community colleges never make it to a college-level course. The extant literature suggests that students' learning experiences in a course largely account for success or failure, yet few studies have uncovered how students…

Purpose: This paper aims to theorize observations as an American professor that schools are a morally formative culture for all students, but international students especially.
