Abstract

This presentation shares qualitative research on how elementary pre-service teachers’ social science literacies and curricular experiences have been constructed, influenced, and informed by popular-culture, bounded ritual spaces (Moore, 1980), such as Walt Disney World’s EPCOT. Implications for pre-service teacher reflection, elementary social studies education, and critical pedagogy are discussed.
