“Blowin’ in the Wind”

Abstract

Responsibility for the columns included in this department will alternate between the two authors/editors. Donna Alvermann leads off with the first column (JAAL 60:1). Colin Harrison will take the lead on the second column (JAAL, 60:2), and so on. We envision this department being a venue for thoughtful discussions of contemporary issues dealing with policy and practice—especially when remixed in ways that generate new insights into enduring dilemmas.

Cautionary Questions

“…In my first column for the Policy and Practice Remix department (Alvermann, ), I defined a remix as a creative space, one in which negotiated changes in policy and practice coexist if not equally, then equitably. A remix makes room for brokering or arranging a deal.…”
