Abstract

Through the careful analysis of the border-crossing epistemologies that are collaboratively shared and validated by a fifth grader and ethnographer in liminal classroom spaces, we identify key methodological approaches for researchers working with border crossers to document the co-production of knowledge among researchers and participants, to engage in active reflection with trusted thought partners, and to understand the possibilities for personal epistemic expansion.
