Article: “Queer breaches and normative devices: Language learners queering gender, sexuality, and the L2 classroom” by Drs. Ashley Moore, James Coda, Julia Siegelman, and Melisa Cahnmann-Taylor. This work was published almost a year ago, in January 2024. 

Robert and EducateTheEarth discuss the importance of queering educational pedagogies and practices for all learners in a classroom. From their discussion, they acknowledge the importance of having fun by exploring your own pedagogies and practices and that educators can be fluid, evolving, and flexible. Robert and EducateTheEarth also note the brilliance of appreciating that students can be your co-learners/co-conspirators and have so much to offer to support your teaching, so long as you're open-minded!
