Reflexivity has become a key concept in RE. It plays a vital role in the interpretive approach and the broader contexts of hermeneutics, anthropology, and research methodology. Moreover, reflexivity is closely related to other terms like self-awareness and self-reflection. How can we conceptualise reflexivity and these related concepts? What are…

Transnational children's texts can bring communities together, forcing us to reflect critically on our past, present, and future, and pushing us to action. In this column, we propose that texts that do this form of activist work are "cuentos combativos" and that all teachers and researchers can leverage "cuentos combativos" for…

Technology education internationally has for some time struggled to achieve continuity between what is depicted in policy and curricular documents and the reality of day-to-day practices. With its focus often articulated through the nature of activity students are to engage with, technology teachers are recognised as having significant autonomy in…

This conceptual replication study, building upon Bartholomew (2020), addresses a notable gap in the literature by investigating the potential of using learning by evaluating (LbE) as an interview primer for individual assignments in design coursework. While peer feedback commonly involves both giving and receiving feedback, LbE uniquely focuses on…

Design thinking dispositions are essential for students to understand why design thinking knowledge should be applied to perform specific tasks. However, few studies are focused on teaching design thinking dispositions. This study proposes a conceptual model that supports teaching design thinking dispositions to address this gap. The model was…

This paper questions the bounds of hegemonic knowledge production focusing on how student learning at the university level is a site to re-imagine knowledge produced in the Global South/Majority. It argues that there are transformational approaches to teaching and learning within the Caribbean that need to be centred in global pedagogical…

Acknowledging the lack of literature on 'how' to teach about, through, and for social justice in physical education teacher education (PETE), the authors studied their own practice as teacher educators 'doing' social justice work. This article describes seven working principles of practice for enacting social justice pedagogies in PETE for those…

In this quasi-experimental study, we examined the effect of a self-reflection activity on the utility value of pre-service teachers in teaching game design. A pretest-posttest design was used to determine any differences associated with the intervention. 129 pre-service teachers from different majors participated in the study. The participants…

This article outlines how teaching strategies developed at Key Stage 5 can be built on in Higher Education. Focussing on act one, scene two of "The Tempest," a play that is taught in both 16-19 curricula and university syllabi, we posit that collaboration between teachers and academics across successive stages of education can extend the…

Reflection is an important component of professional practice in the field of policing. While reflection goes beyond a mere evaluation of officer behavior in police-citizen interaction based on legitimacy and functionality, deeper levels of reflections, where underlying assumptions are challenged do not automatically take place within the system…

Background: Natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning technologies offer significant advantages, such as facilitating the delivery of reflective feedback in collaborative learning environments while minimising technical constraints for educators related to time and location. Recently, scholars' interest in reflective feedback has…

A drama educator and a high school English language arts teacher use drama-based pedagogy to promote criticality and joy in a literature unit on Nella Larsen's "Passing."

It is important for instructors to reflect on and develop their teaching practices and pedagogy. Using a poetic inquiry method, this article offers an alternative model for reflecting on academic writing and teaching practices using a found poetry cluster. My example focuses on graduate academic writing instruction. I create found poems from my…

This conceptual paper suggests the notion of 'affective justice' as a means to critically address the problem of sentimentalism within Human Rights Education (HRE). Originating in sociolegal studies affective justice focuses on how legal frameworks for human rights generate embodied, affective experiences that allow learners to engage deeply with…

In self-study, researchers explicitly identify how their practices add to the body of knowledge in teacher education (Vanassche & Kelchtemans, 2015). This self-study aims to document and analyze some of my learning as an early career teacher educator in Ontario, Canada. Being cognizant of the well-researched theory-to-practice gap in teacher…
