How can photovoice method and pedagogy contribute to Global Citizenship Education? This was the question I explored with participants at the 11th International Conference on Global Citizenship Education (IConGCED), held at Seoul from 26 to 27 August 2026. [1/4]

What's your summer plan? I often get this question & my reply can't be more banal — I teach. And this teaching comes in the form of traveling, not for a week or 2 but a whole month. That's what the #GlobalExperience course at #NUSCollege is abt. Immersive, fun. Can be tiring but def rewarding.

GEx MD started testing how photovoice works in a field course in 2024. Each year we seek to further refine it. From a community library in Tra Vinh to border town Chau Doc & now Saigon. Excited to have an opportunity to bring it to RMIT Vietnam for GEx MD26, extending our impact beyond NUS College.

Elgar Encyclopedia of the Sociology of Education
‘This encyclopedic volume reimagines the sociology of education through connected sociologies and a methodologically denationalized approach. By addressing myriad issues—from mobility and borders to decolonization and race—and advocating for decolonial, relational, and inclusive pedagogies, it fosters global solidarity and challenges inequalities for a more just, interconnected future.’ – Riyad A. Shahjahan, Michigan State University, USA

Super proud of this team who pushed through till the very end & delivered on their Creative Practice, marking the culmination of their 2- year impact experience project.🎉 Just a few days ago bad news came abt damaged materials while being shipped, huge setback on their plan.

My whiteboard writing is as messy as it gets. But that's nth compared to the messiness of designing & implementing impact projects that simultaneously serve student learning goals & community needs.

A really fruitful trip to Nanning and Guangxi University — along with Sin Yee and Rin — to reunite with research collaborators, and where we get to meet a team of postgraduate students ever so eager to support all aspects of our trip.

Speaking of Vietnam, fresh out of the press is a piece I worked on with ​Hao Phuong Phan​ about the BRI creating new opportunities at the Sino-Viet border regions, which are accelerating educational ties and student mobilities that, in turn, recalibrate Vietnam's axis of educational diplomacy.

🌱First post! Teaching in Impact Experience at NUS College meant that I got to work closely with teams of students directing and canvassing projects that seek to benefit/contribute to local communities across Vietnam.
