Iesha Jackson (Teaching and Learning), Miguel M. Gonzales (Educational Psychology, Leadership, and Higher Education), and Adjoa Mensah recently published an article in the Journal for Multicultural Education titled, "It Is Not Equitable If It Is Not Culturally Sustaining: Teaching and Learning in 1:1 Laptop Schools."
