Case Study Approach
The case study approach is defined as the study of a single instance or a number of instances of a particular phenomenon in order to explore the context of that phenomenon. Since focusing on a case study makes it possible for scholars to compile a nuanced, holistic, and detailed analysis of a selected place, group, or process, it is especially useful for doing qualitative, theoretical research. There are three main types of case studies – explora…
Academic Migration at the Canada–US Border
This article uses data provided by national faculty directories, individual and departmental websites, interviews, and autobiographical essays to engage the literature on academic migration at the Canada–US borderland. Our goal is to analyze the cross-border migration, spatial patterns, and motivational factors shaping the cross-border flows of academic migrants from one selected discipline. Following a foundational discussion of the related poli…
American Migration, Settlement, and "Belonging" in Francophone Canada
More Americans now reside in Canada than at any time since the Vietnam War. Of particular note is the surprisingly large population of immigrants from the United States who now reside in Montreal—Francophone Canada's largest and most diverse city. This article documents and analyzes the migration experiences, spatial patterns, and "sense of belonging" of Americans in Montreal during the post–Vietnam era framed within the larger political and ling…

Mapping the Journey Toward Self-Authorship in Geography
Learning is a developmental journey, and geography curriculum plays a key role in supporting student progression. In this article, we argue that the concept of ‘self-authorship’ is a useful guiding principle in supporting curriculum revision and reform. A series of international case studies illustrate how self-authorship can be enacted in different ways within geography curricula in a range of contexts. The role of a range of collaborators and t…
Fuzzy Transnationals? American Settlement, Identity, and Belonging in Canada
More Americans now reside in Canada than at any time since the Vietnam War. This article documents and analyzes the migration, settlement, and identity of US-born residents in three Canadian cities. My work helps fill the gap in the scholarly literature on issues related to international migration at the Canadian–US borderlands. The article's overarching goal is to illustrate that transnationality, as exhibited by US immigrants in Canada, is far …
Identity, Place, and Locale in Galveston
Education and national identity in a comparative context
A missing link in the voluminous chain of prior studies on Canadian versus American identity is a comparative analysis of the impact of social studies – especially civics – education on the construction of national identity in these two North American nation-states. This article analyzes curricular documents and secondary-level school textbooks to learn more about how social studies education contributes to constructing a sense of ‘being a Canadi…

Discourse, Identity, and “Homeland as Other” at the Borderlands
A critical reading of the relationships between social identity theory and the shifting national identities of immigrants residing in a borderland region illustrates the processes involved in linking identity construction, international migration, and context. This spatially grounded discursive study builds on the notion that identities are constructed not only as attachments to particular places or nations, and an eagerness to grasp and hold ont…
None of Us Sets Out To Hurt People’: The Ethical Geographer and Geography Curricula in Higher Education
This paper examines ethics in learning and teaching geography in higher education. It proposes a pathway towards curriculum and pedagogy that better incorporates ethics in university geography education. By focusing on the central but problematic relationships between (i) teaching and learning on the one hand and research on the other, and (ii) ethics and geography curricula, the authors' reflections illustrate how ethics may be better recognized…
Internationalizing Professional Development in Geography through Distance Education
This paper assesses the value and relevance of geography education in the realm of professional development. It explores the potential of distance education to support lifelong learners through courses or modules that operate across international boundaries and incorporate materials from local and global contexts. The authors argue that Internet-enabled distance education offers the potential to extend access to many prospective students who are …
Nodal Heterolocalism and Transnationalism at the United States-Canadian Border
Since the late 1990s Wilbur Zelinsky's theory of “heterolocalism’ has provided human geographers and other social scientists with a new approach to analyzing the spatial patterns and ethnic identities of recent immigrants in the United States. Zelinsky's heterolocal model suggests that, to a degree unknown in the past, new migrants in North American cities may choose to settle in widely dispersed places, rather than in more concentrated ethnic en…
African, Russian, and Ukrainian Refugee Resettlement in Portland, Oregon
The residential patterns, adaptation experiences, and impacts of immigrants on North American cities have been well documented in the geographical literature. In this article, we build on prior work by testing the theories of Gaim Kibreab, who identified three factors that shape the experiences of recent refugees: attitudes of the receiving society; current policy environments; and employment opportunities in local communities. We analyze some of…
Migration, embedded networks and social capital: Towards theorising North American ethnic geography
This paper critically evaluates the impacts of networks of ethnicity and social capital on the migration paths and settlement decision‐making of refugees now living on the Pacific Coast of the US. Of particular significance are the social networks of two complex groups who relocated in large numbers to communities in central California and the Pacific Northwest over the past decade. Postmodern sensitivities to race, space and place in recent year…
Galveston: Ellis Island of Texas
The isolated windswept port of Galveston, located on the Texas Gulf Coast, served as the entry point for tens of thousands of immigrants from many parts of the world between 1850 and 1920. This paper maps, analyzes, and compares the ethnic/racial geography of this "Ellis Island of Texas" using a triangulation of ethnographic methods to understand more about (1) the settlement of particular groups on the island between 1850 and 1920; (2) the relat…
Humanising the Technology Landscape through a Collaborative Pedagogy
A major shift in educational paradigms from a competitive model to a more collaborative model is now under way in higher education. Using collaborative theories espoused by Freire, Bruffee and other scholars working outside the discipline of geography, this paper presents an argument for integrating their collaborative approach into distance education courses at the postgraduate level. The Step Up to Geography Through Distance Learning project is…
Delivering Geography Courses Internationally
Increasing interest is being shown in developing distance learning courses within geography. Emerging educational technologies, based on the Internet, seemingly lie at the root of much of this interest. Experience of providing distance learning materials argues, however, that technology should not be the central concern for groups wishing to develop distance learning programmes. Other issues are more important. These include defining the model of…
