Peck, Frederick A.; O'Connor, Kevin; Cafarella, Julie; McWilliams, Jacob – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2016
Mathematics has long been understood to be a "gatekeeper," which functions to restrict access to educational opportunities due to (a) its central role in formal educational sequences, and (b) the high failure rates often observed in mathematics courses. Failing is an encounter with a type of border: a border that divides a continuous…

Jauregi, Kristi; de Graaff, Rick; Canto, Silvia – European Association for Computer-Assisted Language Learning (EUROCALL), 2011
Organizing and implementing telecollaboration projects in foreign language curricula is not an easy endeavour (Belz & Thorne, 2006; Guth & Helm, 2010), as pedagogical, organizational and technical issues have to be addressed before cross-cultural interaction sessions can be carried out (O'Dowd & Ritter, 2006). These issues make many teaching…
