Abstract
In this work in progress session, these scholars are beginning their journey on the dissertation. Amos historicizes digital technology in education, focusing on the 1990's as the primary period when the push for computers in schools became standard. Augustine Chizmar will conduct an ethnography of the Savannah River and create connections to eco-pedagogy. Manning will look at moments of crisis and how schools have changed (or not) in these times when shortcomings are exposed and reforms are pushed. Paulk will explore podcasting as a research methodology as she interrogates her experiences of raising black children as a white mother. Zhang will analyze a Chinese television series focusing on what it suggests about families and education in China.
