The “Musings” section of Dialogue highlights innovative popular culture integration in the classroom, best practices in teaching and learning inside and outside of K-12 and college/university classrooms, emergent multimodal teaching approaches, critical insights into popular culture, and/or additional items/ideas not fitting neatly into a scholarly article. Of particular interest are “Musings” that explore one or more of these topics/areas:

• The politics of popular culture
• The role of popular culture in politics
• Intersections between critical pedagogy and popular culture
• Intersections of social justice and popular culture
• (Mis)Representations of class, (dis)ability, ethnicity, gender, race/racialization, and sexuality in popular culture
• Global popular culture
• Multimodal popular culture
• Student perceptions of popular culture
• Representations of academia/education in popular culture
• Popular culture as pedagogy
• Popular culture and media literacies
• Popular culture and multimodal literacies
