ABSTRACT
This chapter tells authors' triangulation saga in a straightforward manner but admit that the process was more back and forth than documented. It provides a brief literature review that defines authors' the concept 'triangulation' and their view of the relationship between triangulation and researcher roles. The chapter also provides background information about the broader project in which our two-school study is a part. It revisits authors' research sites and methods by comparing our plans to the actual triangulation outcomes. The chapter provides authors' candid acknowledgment about the lack of triangulation in terms of emergent identities of race, ethnicity, and national origins. It uses cross-national comparisons to explore researcher identities at a more global level. The chapter focuses on the perspectives of the researched rather than on the perspectives of the researchers. A broad definition of triangulation lists the multiple aspects as multiple sources of data, multiple researchers, multiple theoretical perspectives, or multiple methodological approaches.
