Parent and child research has made important contributions to literacy research and advanced research methodologies in studying linguistically diverse families. Positionality has been a cornerstone concept in ethnographic research and often referenced in parent and child studies. In this article, I present a review of the literature on parent and…

Background: This review synthesizes the available literature regarding factors which facilitate a sense of belonging in people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and provide a comprehensive integrative view of the subject.

This chronological review of the literature is a summary of primarily non-empirical articles that explore the specific approach of dyadic (paired individuals or conjoint) interviewing. The evolution of dyadic interviewing is highlighted including the strengths and cautions of this approach beginning in 1942. The review of the literature is…

Researchers have become aware of a need to focus on the continued development of gender and sexuality research in mathematics education, as frameworks and conceptual perspectives have been difficult to operationalize, particularly outside of the heteronormative categories of cis-male and cis-female studies. Early pioneers of this work have…

This paper reports the results of a review of 33 journal articles chosen from 87 empirical studies on learner identity in Chinese as a foreign/second language (CFL/CSL) education, published during the years 2005-2019. By analyzing the co-occurrence of keywords in these Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) journal articles, this review identifies…

As globalization increases, there has been a rise in expatriate families and, consequently, students enrolled in international schools. These children, known as "third culture kids" (TCKs), face difficult transitions, identity development challenges, and adverse social-emotional effects. Transition programs have been developed and…

Students' identities shape and are shaped by learning experiences inside and outside classrooms. Three recent papers present theoretical frameworks for understanding the complex dynamics of identity development with implications for equity in science and mathematics education.

It has been argued that the transition from adolescence to adulthood has been prolonged in many industrialized countries with many young adults pursuing a higher education degree. Accordingly, Arnett introduced a new life phase "emerging adulthood" in which the transition from education to work is a central event. The current systematic…

Every year, nearly one million staff work seasonally at summer camps. Although little research has investigated staff experiences compared to campers' experiences, literature does exist.
