There is growing interest in incorporating multiple voices and ways of knowing into assessment efforts. Attention to incorporating multiple approaches to measuring student learning increases equity in assessment (Montenegro and Jankowski 2017) and promotes engagement with a variety of stakeholders with diverse perspectives on knowledge. However,…

I dedicate this paper to my friend and colleague, Mike Fetters, who served as senior co-editor of the "Journal of Mixed Methods Research" (JMMR). In this paper, I discuss key mixed methods developments over the last 35 years, my fortunate involvement in them, and my collaboration with Mike Fetters in several of them. The discussion…

Rigor evaluation in mixed methods research is a growing need. Linking rigor to Hong and Pluye's (2019) concepts of methodological and reporting quality, the purpose of this article is to operationalize and expand Harrison et al.'s (2020) Rigorous Mixed Methods Framework. Drawing from a systematic methodological review of 66 inclusive education…

Since the establishment of the "Journal of Political Science Education" (JPSE) in 2004, the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning has become more rigorous and data-based, thanks in large part to the efforts of editors, peer-reviewers, and submitters to the journal. Where does the field go from here? I argue that our greatest strengths lie…

The purpose of this article is to illustrate the process and insights gleaned from developing an implementation matrix to convey a concise, yet detailed representation of the project integration steps in a single diagram. The article is based on an explanatory sequential study conducted with 248 teachers exploring how beliefs shaped their use of…

Background: Course-based research experiences (CBREs) are highly valued for science learning and research. Most are discipline-centered, but there is a great deal of interest in developing them to promote interdisciplinarity. Yet, we have much to learn about how CBREs work, and even more to learn about how disciplinary diversity operates as an…

The purpose of this exploratory study was to document aspects of research methodology in educational leadership directed at emerging school leaders and the academic community that supports them. The intricacy of educational challenges highlights the necessity for a thorough investigation, the results of which will inform suitable reforms. Scholars…

Anonymous marking, as a means to mitigate bias in grading, involves evaluating student work with their identities withheld. Anonymous marking is explored in this self-study to mitigate implicit bias, which negated a practitioner-researcher's educational values. The mixed methods action research findings show withholding student identities during…

This article aims to elevate the appreciation of Dr Michael D. Fetters's contributions to mixed methods pedagogy by highlighting his innovative teaching methods called the "mixed methods treasure hunt." Utilizing Vygotsky's sociocultural theory, this paper provides a detailed examination of how Fetters's legacy can be adapted and…

Systematic overview of environmental literacy research in Indonesia is a crucial aspect for determining effective strategies for strengthening environmental literacy, unfortunately, this is not widely available, especially regarding research published in Indonesia. This research aims to reveal the profile, challenges, and opportunities for…

Despite research investment and a growing body of diverse evidence there has been no comprehensive review and grading of evidence for public health emergency preparedness and response practices comparable to those in medicine and other public health fields. The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine convened an ad hoc committee…

This study examines the prevalence and quality of mixed methods research (MMR) in educational journals, highlighting its growing acceptance yet emphasizing the need for enhanced methodological rigor. Although MMR has become popular across education sub-disciplines, its specific use in educational research is underexplored. This study aims to…

Rural special education research is necessary to demonstrate effective practices for rural students, teachers, schools, and communities. However, the majority of educational research is conducted in urban and suburban U.S. schools, which may not generalize adequately to rural locales. Rural special education teacher and student experiences are…

Mixed methods research studies have the potential to answer increasingly complex questions facing early childhood special education (ECSE) researchers. Despite the value that qualitative methods add to mixed methods research designs, most published mixed methods research in special education are quantitatively-dominant. In this article, we aim to…

There is a paucity of empirical research on teaching mixed methods. To fill this gap in literature, this convergent mixed methods study explores the effectiveness of using active learning approaches in teaching a mixed methods course. The qualitative data, including 10 individual interviews, 29 students' reflections, and 26 teaching evaluation…
