To demonstrate, we offer our own attempts to globalize our teaching practice, through both personal and historical narratives. Ultimately, the paper seeks to complicate global education—both historical and contemporary versions—as we draw upon the work of John Dewey in an attempt to reconstruct our own particular version of a location-specific, globally minded, progressive education practice UR - https://dergipark.org.tr/tr/pub/ijpe/issue//277382 L1 - https://dergipark.org.tr/tr/download/article-file/258581 ER -
