Abstract:
This paper is an ethnography, meaning the study of a group of people more closely related to the customs and culture of the group of people. This was done as part of the coursework to receive a Masters in Education and a Preliminary Multiple Subject teaching credential in California. I began by looking at how the varying experiences throughout my life have shaped me into wanting to become a teacher. This is a place in the ethnography where I evaluate my own schooling and look at who impacted my life academically. Through looking at these people, I was able to see the kind of learning style I f

This thesis represents a small-scale ethnography of access education.

Abstract. Since the inception of compulsory education in the Western world, learning in school has privileged our senses of sight, hearing and touch.

In the twenty-first century, environmentally injurious phenomena related to climate change and biodiversity loss have profound impacts on our total environments and our whole bodies—especially beyond what is perceptible by vision, hearing, video and text.
