Cloud, Doug – Written Communication, 2017
"Coming out" is a powerful way for individuals to disclose, constitute, and perform membership in stigmatized identity categories. The practice has now spread far beyond its LGBTQ origins. In this essay, I examine how atheists and other secularists have taken up and adapted coming out discourse to meet their situational and rhetorical…

Janzen, Melanie D. – Asia-Pacific Journal of Teacher Education, 2015
Teachers are caught in a tug of war between what they are supposed to be and who they are trying to become. The teaching subject, striving to be recognisable, is socially constructed and discursively constituted through ongoing relations with power--an identity essentially determined in advance. What is it to live--to become, as…

Buchanan, John – Australian Journal of Teacher Education, 2015
The transition from pre-service to in-service can be difficult for teachers. One means of looking into the minds and hearts of such teachers is to elicit the metaphors they adopt for themselves. Previous studies have indicated that during this transition much of the confidence, idealism and optimism of teacher metaphors is displaced by bleak and…

Catalano, Theresa; Fox, Jill; Vandeyar, Saloshna – Journal of Language, Identity, and Education, 2016
Much research is available that details student experiences of immigration and adaptation to receiving countries and schools, but few studies analyze the metaphors used by immigrant students (IS) when talking about the immigration experience, or offer a comparative lens through which to view identity negotiation in two very different contexts. The…

Torres, J. T.; Anguiano, Carlos J. – Practitioner Research in Higher Education, 2016
Feedback has typically been studied as a means of improving academic performance. Few studies inquire into the processes by which feedback shapes student identity.

Dix, Stephanie – Teaching and Teacher Education: An International Journal of Research and Studies, 2012
Changes in political, social and educational curriculum policies over the past four decades have created discursive shifts in writing theory and practice for New Zealand primary teachers. While these policies have historically privileged a particular view of writing over others, very little is known as to how teachers engage with experienced…

Chun, Jiang – ProQuest LLC, 2010

Pacheco, Denise L. – ProQuest LLC, 2011
In an era of reductionist approaches to teaching and assessment, this dissertation returns to the fundamental question: "What is the value of writing, particularly poetry writing, in our society today?"
