Call for Papers / Research Participants
looking for research participants
I am conducting a research project with university educators across Japan who teach using anti-oppressive, social-justice-oriented, inclusive, and/or global citizenship education teaching methods. I am specifically interested in learning from teachers who teach either a) English courses, or b) pre- or in-service teachers how to teach English.
I will use the information learned to add to the data I collected from 20 university educators across Canada who teach using similar methods in an ELL context, as a means to seek a more nuanced and epistemologically anti-oppressive understanding of how such approaches are used in different parts of the world.
If you or someone you know is interested and fits the description, please email me and I will share an information letter that outlines the research in much more detail. In short, I will ask you to read the info letter and consent to the research, complete a short survey (~10-15min), and participate in 1-2 interviews (between April-June 2023). Please feel free to contact me for more information about the project (funded by JSPS’s Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research/KAKEN). Participants will receive a ¥2000 gift card for their time.

In total, the questionnaire will take 15-20 minutes to complete.
A message from the researchers: Thank you for participating in our study! Please don’t hesitate to share the survey link with colleagues in and outside Japan. We welcome responses from educators in any context! Contact Marc Jones by email if you have any questions at jones056@toyo.ac.jp
