This manuscript carefully examines racialized surveillance, a mechanism of anti-Black violence, or what Hartman has called the afterlife of slavery, that persists in society despite the formal end of enslavement. To accomplish this, I conducted a critical discourse analysis of an incident in the public sphere and one in an educational context to…

Research has shown that linear relationships do not adequately represent publication and citation measurement behavior. They are much more curvilinear than that. However, we tend to try to look to citation counts linearly to draw outcomes about productivity. This study examines bibliometric and altmetric measures for emerging and senior scholars…

This article focuses on teachers' and principals' experiences of aggressive emails in home--school collaborations with parents. Semi-structured interviews with 31 teachers and principals from primary, lower and upper secondary schools in Sweden were conducted. Three categories were identified in the material which illuminate the phenomenon of…

Numerous studies have discussed the "ethics of care" and "safe learning environments" in relation to educational experiences. Yet, there is a dearth of literature on such aspects in vocational, non-western higher education contexts. This paper examines how students and teachers view entanglements of the ethics of care and safe…

Researchers have increasingly understood their positionality should be actively considered. However, these considerations usually focus on select characteristics, treat "identity" as a fixed construct, and are limited to discussions of research methodology. Returning to fieldnotes from one community that has long exemplified the…

Teacher identity is a dynamic nexus of experiences and narratives on which teachers draw to understand and situate themselves in teaching. Additionally, teacher identity becomes pedagogy as we teach who we are. This narrative inquiry used an Appreciative Inquiry (AI) framework to explore stories of teaching that have interwoven into the teacher…

Navigating support and seeking resources to support children and young people with additional learning needs (ALN) can be a challenge, but for those receiving state-funded education, the barriers to ensuring effective provision can be further compounded. This paper explores the challenges faced in Welsh-medium education by the hegemonic discourses…

An increasing number of districts and schools have adopted/adapted a multi-tiered support system (MTSS). The investments in some states have been in the millions. Over the last five years, a variety of concerns have arisen across the country about how well MTSS is meeting teachers' needs for student/learning supports. Some concerns have emphasized…

This study analysis the role of Pakistan's National Curriculum textbooks in normalising religious-based construction and demonisation of the 'other'. Specifically, it examines textbooks issued by Federal Textbook Board for high school students using thematic content analysis. The research aims to investigate the portrayal of religious-based…

The latest buzz word within the intersecting terrain of postcolonial pedagogy and social and applied epistemology seems to be the notion of 'reparation' -- or, to be more precise, reparation pertaining to past and ongoing epistemic injustice and harm. Reparations are frequently taken to involve decolonisation of both education and knowledge. The…

In this article, we examine how thinking with affect theory offers fertility within higher education studies to see and do teaching and learning differently. For many educators in universities, the idea that teaching is a cognitive process of information transmission is still taken-for-granted. These beliefs are visible through the persistence of…

Collaboration between universities and schools has been emphasised by both governments and within educational development research in the Nordic countries. However, educational research has tended to focus on the practitioners' perspectives and experiences, i.e., researchers and teachers. Our intention is to contribute to the field with research…

This study examines educators' experiences of implementing research--practice partnership (RPP) in three schools in Finland's capital area. The data consisted of educator interviews (N = 12) and self-report questionnaire responses (N = 101). Teachers' experiences were traced by data-driven thematic analysis of the interviews and quantitative…

Currently, multicultural societies are characterised by multiple, complex, and interdependent changes and challenges at the local, regional, national, and global levels. Many individuals and groups experience racism, deprivation, exclusion, and discrimination in areas such as education, healthcare, the workplace, and social settings.…

This paper brings together two scholars, Filipina/CHamorro and Cantonese (respectively), to engage in collaborative story-sharing sessions. We accessed our upbringings, K-12 and postsecondary educations, relations with processes of coloniality and racialization, and critical consciousness formation to situate our lives and knowledges in how Asian…
