Decolonizing Transcultural Teacher Education through Participatory Action Research : Dialogue, Culture, and Identity
This volume describes a Participatory Action Research (PAR) project involving educators from Belize and the U.S. to illustrate the critical role of shared dialogue in transnational teacher education. First identifying issues which inhibited the success of formerly didactic training delivered to Belizean teachers by U.S. educators, this volume documents the transformational impact of a shift to collaborative training approaches and uses first-person accounts from Belizean and U.S. stakeholders to illustrate their successes. Chapters powerfully illustrate that by engaging in Freirean-like dialogue and building relationships based on a mutual understanding of the cultural and historical context, as well as the identity of educators involved, partners are better able to engage in effective transnational pedagogical collaboration.Particular attention is paid to the importance of acknowledging the post-colonial setting and unique positionality of teachers in Belize. This text will benefit researchers, academics, and educators with an interest in action research and teacher research, multicultural education, and continued professional development in particular.Those interested in teacher training, education research, and international and comparative education will also benefit from this book.

Virginia Woolf, Science, Radio, and Identity
This book offers an extensive analysis of Woolf's engagement with science.It demonstrates that science is integral to the construction of identity in Woolf's novels of the 1930s and 1940s, and identifies a little-explored source for Woolf's scientific knowledge: BBC scientific radio broadcasts.By analyzing this unstudied primary material, it traces the application of scientific concepts to questions of identity and highlights a single concept that is shared across multiple disciplines in the modernist period: the idea that modern science undermined individualized conceptions of the self.It broadens our understanding of the relationship between modernism and radio, modernism and science, and demonstrates the importance of science to Woolf's later novels.

Is gender identity sexist?
Gender identity itself is not inherently sexist. Gender identity is a deeply personal and individual experience that reflects a person's internal sense of their own gender, which may or may not align with the sex they were assigned at birth. However, societal norms, expectations, and stereotypes around gender can be sexist, as they often reinforce traditional gender roles and perpetuate inequality between genders. It is important to separate the concept of gender identity from these societal constructs in order to promote understanding and acceptance of diverse gender identities.
