The Application Of Memes On English Learners' Idiomatics And Motivation, Fatima Azzahraa Raafat
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Students nowadays live in a visually rich world where they continually generate meaning and knowledge through images (Romero & Bobkina, 2017).

Wayne State University Dissertations
The purpose of the study was to examine early career physical educators' perspectives on learning to teach in urban schools. Using occupational socialization theory (Lawson, 1983a, 1983b; Lortie, 1975) and cultural relevance theory (Flory & McCaughtry, 2011), I studied three early-career physical education teachers who taught in urban schools but did not grow up in urban communities. Data collection occurred for approximately six weeks with each teacher via lesson observation and in-depth interviews. Data were analyzed using constant comparison. The findings of this study outlined the particular elements from each teachers' experience during their pre-professional socialization, professional socialization, and induction …
