Thanks Amy! Yes, the 'hidden curriculum' is an ongoing interest of this blog. I also share your views about explicitly clarifying that what we mean by 'logic' is Western, empirical logic, and that's not the only way you could think rigorously, or have extensive academic training! Once we name and explain our assumptions, students can meet them or challenge them!

https://researchinsiders.blog/20...I find this article very interesting and echoes my ongoing interest on the hidden curriculum in HE. I often wonder that the logical progression of reasoning and the expectations of how to construct paragraphs are part of how the culture communicates and how the language is used, shaped and shared by people of the same cultural/Socio capital etc. Different cultures communicates differently and learning to write academically is not always about language proficiency or skills. It’s about understanding the culture and joining in the community of practice. This is what I tell my students especially if they are English as second language users.
