Direct linkPhillip Poulton – Australian Educational Researcher, 2025
This paper explores the impact of ongoing performativity and accountability agendas in education which frame curriculum merely as a product for delivery and teachers more as 'technicians' rather than curriculum-makers. While research has explored the impact of such agendas on the realities of teachers' curriculum experiences within schools,…

Masooda Bano – Oxford University Press, 2025
Why do so many well-intentioned efforts to improve education in developing countries fall short? Despite decades of donor-driven initiatives, millions of children remain out of school, and even those who attend often struggle to learn. In "Fixing Governance from Below," Masooda Bano critically examines the repeated failures of…

The international nature of doctoral education creates interesting tensions where national systems, institutional policies, disciplinary customs, individual supervisor preferences, and doctoral researcher needs meet. The Thesis by Publication (TBP), a model where published works are included within the thesis, is available to doctoral researchers…

Kim, Taeyeon – Harvard Educational Review, 2023
This portraiture-informed study by Taeyeon Kim challenges the dominant discourse of accountability, which often focuses on high-stakes policies at the expense of relational aspects of accountability in schools. Building on working theories of accountability, humanizing leadership, and paradox theory, Kim theorizes the "human side of…

Pablo Bezem – Educational Assessment, Evaluation and Accountability, 2023
Test-based accountability offers schools limited guidance on informing sustained reforms, whereas on-site school evaluations provide broader and more nuanced evidence. In order to transform inspection feedback into long-term reforms, school leaders' attitudes towards these evaluations are critical. Relying on organizational change theory, this…

Feldberg, Zachary R. – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Cognitive diagnostic models (CDMs) provide pedagogically relevant information in the form of a student profile of multiple binary categorizations of students into mastery or nonmastery statuses on latent traits called attributes. Federal educational accountability requires accountability measures to designate students into one of at least three…

The last few years have produced a groundswell of interest in improving our school accountability systems. Some suggest it's necessary to fine-tune current practices, while others advocate sweeping reforms that pave the way for entirely different approaches. A range of perspectives fall between these ends of the continuum, but support for the…

Victoria Reyes; Elizabeth Bogumil; Levin Elias Welch – Sociological Methods & Research, 2024
Transparency is once again a central issue of debate across types of qualitative research. Work on how to conduct qualitative data analysis, on the other hand, walks us through the step-by-step process on how to code and understand the data we've collected. Although there are a few exceptions, less focus is on transparency regarding…

Previous research reviewed how transparently reported qualitative, interview-based, studies were in contemporary technology…

Nedzib M. Prasevic – Research in Pedagogy, 2024
One of the most important problems in philosophy of education is known under the name of the paradox of moral education. The hypothesis from which we begin and the validity of which should be proved is reduced to the claim that this paradox arises when the basic categories of philosophy of education, such as autonomy, authenticity and the purpose…

Reynaldo Reyes – Teachers College Record, 2024
Giving quizzes to get students to read may continue to be misunderstood, even grossly undervalued. Using a quiz to encourage (enforce) reading plays a significant role not only in students learning content of their chosen field, but also as the critical first step toward an awakening of the mind--or, at the very least, the mind being more…

Laura E. Smithers; Lisa A. Mazzei – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2024
In this paper, the authors consider the intersections of philosophy and education. Extending the concept of a "minor pedagogy" first presented by Mazzei and Smithers (2020), the authors reorient thinking toward more equitable and just pedagogy as a cultivation of difference. This paper has three major sections. In the first two, the…

Will Lorié; Scott Marion; Damian Betebenner – National Center for the Improvement of Educational Assessment, 2024
In 2023, a group of district and school leaders and other education constituents convened by the Delaware Department of Education raised questions about the growth metric in the state's accountability system. They wondered whether the state's growth model was too highly related to achievement and, therefore, not rewarding schools for helping…

Gareth Evans – Policy Futures in Education, 2025
Accountability in education takes many forms. One of the most prominent in the Welsh context is school inspection, which is considered an important measure of school performance and a way of holding schools accountable for the public money they receive. However, inspections are not accepted as adding value to the system without exception, and much…
