"Research Methods for Studying Young Children" is a volume developed to bring together in one source research techniques that researchers can use to collect data in early childhood education. These studies can then contribute to the knowledge in early childhood education. To conduct valid and reliable studies, researchers need to be…

Background/purpose: The introduction of learning management systems, interactive whiteboards, educational games, and artificial intelligence-supported educational technologies highlights the importance of technological leadership as a top competency for teachers. Since effective technological leadership requires a high level of education, numerous…

Background/purpose: In a global context marked by accelerating digital transformation, higher education institutions are encountering significant challenges in integrating online learning tools. Although educational technologies are increasingly recognized as catalysts for pedagogical innovation, their effective adoption remains constrained by…

Mathematics education researchers (MERs) use practices unique to the mathematics education discipline to conduct their work. MERs' practices, i.e., ways of being, interacting, and operating, define the field of mathematics education, are initially learned in doctoral preparation programs, and are encouraged and sanctioned by conferences and…

Despite the ubiquity of variation in child development within individuals, across groups, and across tasks, timescales, and contexts, dominant methods in developmental science and education research still favor group averages, short snapshots of time, and single environments. The Learning Variability Network Exchange (LEVANTE) is a framework…

The authors of this report provide findings and recommendations of a mixed-methods evaluation of a multiyear action research project by Learning Creates Australia (LCAust). The authors aimed to answer five research questions organised around the three focal areas of LCAust's work: convening supporters, curating evidence and demonstrating…

Purpose: This study aims to examine publishing patterns regarding the incorporation of organizational learning in philanthropic organizations. Design/methodology/approach: This study conducts a quantitative bibliometric analysis using Scopus database data from 1997 to 2024. The search terms "organizational learning" combined with…

Purpose: This paper aims to expand contours of social and cultural theories of literacy by developing a framework emphasizing the necessity of journeying and everydayness in literacy research and teaching practice. The authors situate their analysis in contemporary educational contexts shaped by pervasive English dominance, anti-immigration and…

Advocate Aurora Research Institute (AARI) has implemented a Research Authorization and Protocol Review (RAPR) process to streamline the review and authorization of research conducted within Advocate Health (AH) Midwest. RAPR aims to facilitate the submission and review of various types of research, coordinates scientific and administrative…

Arts-based research (ABR) has been gaining attention and popularity in recent years. One manifestation of this is the increased adoption of research-based documentaries as a means of knowledge production and mobilization in the field of gifted and talented education (e.g., "RISE, The G Word"). However, there has been little conversation…

Mixed-methods research (MMR) holds promise for investigating several empirical questions within special education, capitalizing on the strengths of quantitative and qualitative traditions. We present an overview of MMR in special education and quality indicators for conducting and reporting such studies. We look to the future for how MMR may…

Following in the tradition of systematic reviews of research, this paper reports the findings of an overview of Arab scholarship in educational administration, management and leadership. We first articulated a framework for analysis anchored to a proposed 'scholarship maturity' theoretical model then applied it to analyze 20 reviews of Arab…

In recent years there has been a notable increase in the use of phenomenology as a research method, particularly in educational research. With the rise of phenomenology as a research method, confusion has also arisen concerning what counts as phenomenology, and how best to practice phenomenological research in non-philosophical contexts.…

This article is a personal reflection on borderlands as a professional home. Researchers who find themselves beyond their home discipline, i.e., the one in which they have been credentialed, have tried to assign terms for their location and its psychological ramifications. Defying an intellectual lane is to traverse a boundary that is constricted…

Conducting rigorous impact studies that produce actionable evidence for educators and policymakers is a key goal of the Standards for Excellence in Education Research (SEER). Although studies can be initiated by individual districts or schools, researchers often conduct their own studies to address broadly relevant questions about the…
