To address a student-teacher educator perspective in the engagement of critical pedagogy (CP), I employed a critical and analytical autoethnography to self-investigate my lived experiences during coursework in a doctoral program in the United States.

Ali, Zahra – Changing English: Studies in Culture and Education, 2021
One of the consequences of globalisation in recent years has been the unprecedented spread of English as the world's lingua franca. This has particular resonance in postcolonial countries, such as Pakistan and Australia, whose histories have been strongly shaped by English colonisers in contrasting ways. Written from the perspective of someone who…

Risager, Karen – Language, Culture and Curriculum, 2021
What images of the world do we find in language textbooks? What countries and continents are favoured, what key problems of the world are mentioned and taken up, what segments of the world's populations are represented and how, what role is given to the understanding of world history, colonialism and imperialism, what role is given to the…

The Construct of Gender and Ethnicity in Language Proficiency of Post-Colonial Filipino ESL Learners
Parangan, Betsy Pearl Paclibar; Buslon, Junette Berenguer – TESOL International Journal, 2020
Gender and Ethnicity are essential constructs considered to be interwoven with each other. They are imperative considerations in the study of language learning. However, there remain a dearth of investigations on language proficiency that have accounted both gender and ethnicity, specifically among post-colonial Filipino ESL learners. Against this…

This article provides a critical sociological examination of how Hong Kong youth's relationship towards Chinese identity and China is negotiated vis-a-vis schooling, language policy, and the broader Hong Kong postcolonial condition, and how this mediates these students' aspirational imaginations regarding possibilities of studying and working in…

Matthews, Julie – International Journal of Inclusive Education, 2021
Refugees are seldom admired or applauded for their resolve and resilience, and their post and pre-migration experience rarely serves as the basis for the development of educational practice or policy solutions. Using a postcolonial theoretical framework this paper argues that while the maligned mobility and disparaged figure of the 'refugee'…

Lee, Daphnee Hui Lin – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2023
Singapore's higher education history had students involved in anti-colonial movements. This study examines how historical discourses on state efforts to manage university student movements (1953-1980) unintentionally reproduce in the intercultural business practices of today's professionals. It explores how professional accounts of intercultural…

Kieran, P.; Mc Donagh, J. – British Journal of Religious Education, 2021
In Ireland primary RE is a fractured, contested, complex and changing territory devoid of a common language and characterised by a proliferation of syllabi and curricula generated for increasingly diverse school types. For centuries the dynamic decolonising process has led to a questioning of former orthodoxies and an attempted de-linking of the…

Within this context, the intrinsic complexities of the African child who enters the academia with a multiplicity of epistemic identity contestations are simultaneously explored. The ensuing alienation resulting from…
