University students in paid employment have less time for studying, report more stress, and participate in fewer extracurricular activities than non-employed students. These negative outcomes that result from combining work and study can cause employed students to experience the domains of work, study, and social life as practically incompatible,…

This article discusses the false dichotomy between criticality and historical inquiry. We argue that adding "critical" to "historical inquiry" can be interpreted as something distinct, instead of integral, to historical inquiry. It can normalize the idea that historical thinking is not critical, which, in turn, upholds the…

Building on youth literacies in formal learning spaces is a promising direction for asset-based literacy learning designs.
