Decolonial Multiculturalism And Local-Global Contexts: A Postcritical Feminist Bricolage For Developing New Praxes In Education, Katharine Matthaei Sprecher
Doctoral Dissertations
This dissertation presents a conceptual bricolage that explores complex, reflexive, and interrelated dimensions of educational praxes.

In Article 1, I demonstrate how this framework synergizes aspects of social reconstructionist and critical multicultural, global, and …

With the solutions proposed in this paper, teachers can meet student needs and the negative effects of open enrollment will be …

Perceptions of Access to Education: Inclusion and Exclusion for Non-Karen Refugees in Mae La Camp attempts to understand, through qualitative data, how non-Karen speaking refugees perceive their access to education.
