Scope

The scope of this study is limited to textbook creation for non-dominant languages, specifically through processes that involve international agencies and/or ministries of education and teams of international and local educators. Textbook creation by publishing houses, while interesting, is likely to be unavailable through the professional networks accessed in this study. Textbook creation for dominant languages is likewise out of bounds, largely because the processes are assumed to be very different than those for non-dominant languages.
