This critical duoethnography takes silence in classroom discussions as a sociocultural artifact that reveals the norms of the society that upholds it. In this research, we made visible and explored the content of silence we experienced as international graduate students. We found that repeated patterns of silence in classroom discussions acted to…

Collective cheating is a widespread phenomenon in school and academia. A large majority of students report having cheated--individually or collectively--at school. In many settings, collective cheating is part of a culture and reveals a descriptive norm. However, no measure exists, to our knowledge, that captures the presence of a collective…

This article considers "My Friend Dahmer" as a pedagogical document of educational critique. A graphic novel memoir, "My Friend Dahmer" depicts the teenage life of Jeffrey Dahmer in the years before he gained notoriety as a serial killer.
