Canham, Nicole – Research Studies in Music Education, 2023

Lee, Jack T. – Asia Pacific Education Review, 2023
Recent calls for the decolonization of the academy demand recognition for diverse canons of knowledge. Asia's economic ascent also imparts rising confidence among Asian scholars and institutions to promote indigenous knowledge.

If ever there was an appropriate time to reassess models of instructional delivery for language learning, that time is now.
