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…

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…

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…

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…

With the rise of authoritarian politics across the globe, echoes of a fascist past are with us once again signaling a looming and dangerous threat to education and democracy. This essay argues that is it crucial to engage fascism both as a language of white supremacy and a politics of disconnection. If fascism is to be addressed both politically…

Co-regulation refers to warm, receptive, and supportive interactions between caregiver and child that provide guidance and modulation of the child's emotions, behaviours, and thoughts.

In China, higher education institutions (HEIs) have a governance arrangement in which the university president and the party secretary occupy key roles. However, their legal roles as institutional leaders are vaguely specified in existing legal frameworks. Based on a four-dimensional theoretical model, this paper (i) clarifies the leadership roles…

There is a lack of instructional literature on how to conduct a feminist evaluation to highlight and transform systemic issues in gendered and intersecting power relations. Feminist Participatory Action Research (FPAR) enables a process for conducting community-driven, -led and -owned feminist evaluations that drive social justice actions. By…

This study explored the lived experiences of 21 graduate students in counselor education programs in talking about race, racism, oppression, and privilege in the classroom. We identified four themes from the data that will be shared in the study findings with implications for counselor education, counselor training, and research.

Educational assessments, from kindergarden to 12th grade (K-12) to licensure, have a long, well-documented history of oppression and marginalization. In this paper, we (the authors) ask the field of educational assessment/measurement to actively disrupt the White supremacist and racist logics that fuel this marginalization and re-orient itself…

Introduction: Post-secondary institutions are increasingly promoting equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) in health professions education. Yet, institutions continue to be spaces of exclusion and marginalization for health professional students from marginalized groups. Purpose: To explore the education experiences of health professionals from…

Post qualitative inquiry is an immanent approach to research that I engaged during a study on TikTok with my 11-year-old daughter. In this article, I reflect on how its experimental style enabled a provisional escape from the hierarchy of adult/child through lines of flight. I also reflect on how binary thinking that disparages children's…

This study examines the ways that school policies are understood and taken up by teachers. A review of the relevant literature suggests that much school policy, even that which is explicitly designed to ameliorate inequities that exist within schools and school systems, often have an inverse effect. It is also established that teachers, for many…
