This article presents a pedagogical model for implementing a special topic class on science and feminism for chemistry students…

The decline of public education and the concomitant loss of the commons are increasingly recognized as significant and interwoven issues. Like other prevailing societal problems, such as the tenacity of institutionalized racism, classism, and patriarchy, these conditions are rooted in the ways growing numbers of people have come to think and act…

Three Australian Government commissioned reports from 2011-2017 convey a longstanding child development theory-practice gap in early childhood education. This study explores what informs mentors' discussions of theories of child development with early career preschool teachers. Grounded in Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis, themes relate to…

Research indicates racism is a persistent and pervasive presence in the United States. Wealth gaps between White, Asian, Black and Latinx families are wide and expanding (Parker, Horowitz, & Mahl, 2016). Since wealth for the middle class is often maintained in real estate, the long and continuing legacy of discrimination in housing markets has…

Purpose: The aim of this invited paper is to explore how more complex epistemic environments generate opportunities and challenges for organizational learning in professional realms. Based on these explorations, a second aim is to discuss whether there are specific conditions in Nordic working life that facilitates or restricts such learning…

In this conceptual article, we explore allyship as the intended result of participation in LGBTQ+ social justice education interventions on college campuses, often called Safe Zone or Safe Space trainings. We contextualize how these trainings align with Boyer's (1990) concepts of teaching and learning in student affairs practice. We argue how the…

Past work suggests that children have an overly rosy view of rich people that stays consistent across childhood. However, adults do not show explicit pro-rich biases and even hold negative stereotypes against the rich (e.g., thinking that rich people are cold and greedy). When does this developmental shift occur, and when do children develop more…

Mixed methods research in developing countries has been increasing since the turn of the century. Given this, there is need to consolidate insights for future researchers. This article contributes to the methodological literature by exploring how cultural factors and logistical challenges in developing contexts interplay with mixed methods…

This paper is a critical reflection of a critical ethnography, a study focused on how 'healthy lifestyle education' programmes were implemented and experienced in two primary schools. In an attempt to disrupt the "status quo" I employed a range of ethnographic methods: 'hanging out' with children and adults; building trusting…

Higher Education (HE) constitutes a space that calls urgently for new understandings in the contemporary political moment. One way of establishing such an understanding of HE is to consider more fully the work of political theorists in relation to questions of power in the modern nation-state, particularly as these impinge upon the key problem of…

As Canadian education systems implement the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's Calls to Action, various expressions of white settler resistance become amplified. This article examines the potential for settler-educators' stories to teach about processes for working through settler ignorance. Insight into the question of how to transform settler…

This study seeks to demonstrate how knowledge and authority are linked for preservice mathematic teachers and how this link may pose a challenge for teaching mathematics for social justice. A CDA of multiple preservice class discussions is presented. [For the complete proceedings, see ED630210.]

Sociologists of education have shown that schooling tends to favour the most powerful groups and that even well-intentioned researchers can run the risk of perpetuating some of the very power structures we seek to critique. In this paper we explore how a male, Brahmin researcher from Nepal (the highest caste group in Nepalese society) attempted to…
