As in face-to-face education, teachers are the most important part of the education…

For over 15 years, researchers have described a crisis in early learning classrooms in the United States. Hundreds of children are expelled from child-care programs and preschools every day, a rate nearly three times that of kindergarten-12th grade students. While policymakers have taken steps to mitigate this crisis, disparities in who is…

This report examines out-of-school suspension data from the Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC) from the 2011-12 school year through 2017-18, tracking trends over time and differences in suspension rates of students based on their race and ethnicity, school level, and disability status. Data is presented at national and state levels, and because…

For decades, redirecting Black students' behavior has been the focal point of mitigating discipline disparities among Black student behavior despite the evidence suggesting the involvement of educators and the possibility of their discipline practices perpetuating this issue. The literature has yet to address a coaching approach to professional…

There is an issue occurring in public schools that is not often addressed and that is the Black-White disparity in exclusionary discipline. The conversation often centers around the "achievement gap" or more recently the "opportunity gap". But what are some of the factors that can be addressed in schools that are leading to…

The purpose of this quantitative study was to analyze the data from schools that have and have not implemented AVID for at least three years to determine what difference, if any, existed between the schools' racial discipline gap.

One of the controversies surrounding charter schools is whether these schools may either "cream skim" high-performing students from traditional public schools or "pushout" low-achieving students or students with discipline histories, leaving traditional public schools to educate the most challenging students. In this study, we…

Despite interest in the contributions of school discipline to the creation of racial inequality, previous research has been unable to identify how students who receive suspensions in school differ from unsuspended classmates on key young adult outcomes.

Grouping students into separate classes according to their 'ability' is an inequitable practice that does not, overall, improve academic outcomes. Research has continued to show that class ability grouping widens the educational gap between students from disadvantaged and privileged backgrounds. PISA data analysis suggests that class ability…

Researchers' notions of research quality depend on their field of research. Previous studies have shown that field-specific assessment criteria exist but could explain neither why these specific criteria and not others exist, nor how criteria are used in specific assessment situations. To give initial answers to these questions, formal assessment…

Creating a safe and supportive classroom learning environment has been challenging due to disciplinary issues during the COVID-19 pandemic. Research on effective, equitable disciplinary practices and reducing school disciplinary action is limited. This phenomenological research study investigated effective disciplinary techniques used consistently…

The conversation on the effectiveness of blended learning experience in Algerian higher education has not received the necessary attention compared to developed countries. Moreover, there is a scarcity of research that discusses the impact and benefits of the pandemic-induced changes in Algerian higher education. The primary goal of this paper is…
