Details "With every class one encounters one learns something about them. However, when I had a particularly high level English university class including a large proportion of ‘returnee’ students who had spent periods of their childhood overseas I wanted to find out more. As part of their second-semester course ‘Educational Issues’ I had them conduct peer interviews into their educational experiences which they video recorded and wrote about in term papers. The identities revealed in this project are compared and contrasted in this poster with their shared Facebook persona offering food for thought for me and hopefully other teachers!"
