We operationalize these concepts by drawing from the theoretical notions of chronotope, scale, and habitus. Using data from…

Smith, Patriann; Warrican, S. Joel; Alleyne, Melissa L. – International Multilingual Research Journal, 2020

Qin, Kongji – International Multilingual Research Journal, 2019
This classroom discourse study examines how curriculum becomes a resource for identity performance in one ESL classroom.

These parents' experiences are embedded in different sociopolitical contexts: an…

Employing a rhizoanalytic research approach that…
