"The number of upper secondary school graduates in Japan has declined by 38 per cent since 1990, when the country's previously booming economy began to flatline, and job vacancies outnumber applicants by more than 60 per cent. Such factors have prompted questions about the country's ability to maintain a workforce capable of paying off the world's largest public debt; Japan's government owes around two-and-a-half times what its entire economy produces each year" (¶4, 2018.11.26).

New challenges in how we identify and contextualize various kinds of fabrications in libraries, archives, and museums-and in the classroom and in the learning experiences of students more broadly-will continue to arise" (¶10, retrieved 2018.11.15).

"Reflection requires a type of introspection that goes beyond merely thinking, talking or complaining about our experiences. It is an effort to understand how the events of our life shape the way in which we see the world, ourselves and others. And it is essential for any leader" (¶2, 2012.03.09)
