Students’ Pathways Across Local, National & Supra-National Borders: Representations of a Globalized World in a Francophone Minority School in Ontario, Canada

By D. Farmer et al., published in 2015 in the Journal of Social Science Education.

Informed by anthropology of childhood and youth, this paper examines how elementary students make sense of their diverse trajectories in an expanding culture of spatial, virtual, and linguistic mobility. Drawing on data collected in one francophone minority school in Ontario, Canada, we discuss students’ representations of a “globalized world” as they co-construct with peers and teachers the multiple meanings associated with mobility, citizenship, and nationhood.
