Edmonstone, John – Action Learning: Research and Practice, 2019

Performativity, in particular, has increasingly become internalised by people at work. CAL seems to be limited to power…

Elementary Literacy Teachers Change the Underlying Story through Transformative Read-Aloud Curricula
Vlach, Saba Khan – Journal of Children's Literature, 2022
Transformative, anti-oppressive curricula, as theorized by Banks (1989, 2014) and Kumashiro (2001, 2009), directly address present-day realities of racism, discrimination, and oppression. According to Banks (1989), a transformative curriculum includes "the infusion of various perspectives, frames of reference, and content from various groups,…
