Purpose: The concept of distributed leadership (DL) has been widely advocated within higher education (HE). Yet, there have been few empirical investigations and little theory development outside Western contexts to date. This study presents a unique conceptualisation of DL and tests it empirically in India. Design/methodology/approach: This study…

Health professional learners are increasingly called to learn about health inequity to reduce inequities and improve patient care and health outcomes. Anti-oppression pedagogy (AOP) addresses the need for health professional learners to understand multiple health inequities and the structures and systems that produce inequities. However, the…

In this essay, Brady L. Nash and Allison Skerrett reexamine the New London Group's theory of multiliteracies thirty years after its initial conception, considering how changes in technology, culture, and politics have impacted the ability of young people to act as designers of social futures. Multiliteracies theory led to an explosion of…

Research-practice partnerships (RPPs) offer a strategy for supporting educational change and bringing researchers and practitioners into meaningful engagement around pressing issues. Whereas traditional research models often position researchers in hierarchical relationships with those who take part in their projects, RPPs aim to shift power…

This article explores the role of education in shaping new ideals of womanhood in the Late Ottoman Empire, focusing on the women's magazine "Kadinlar Dünyasi" (1913-1921).

In this article, I examine the sustainability of employing philosophy for children (P4C) to address the ongoing ecological crises affecting Guam. I argue that although P4C aims to foster a more ecological form of living, its failure to cultivate contemplation and dialogue grounded in specific ecosystems renders it incapable of fostering generative…

Learning management systems occupy an almost ubiquitous position in higher education today and may be leveraged to streamline and standardise course delivery. Despite the potential for multiple enrolment, centralised courses to offer efficiency and consistency in institutions, there is a lack of research investigating the relationship between…

Realist evaluations, a form of theory-driven evaluation, aim to explain how, why, for whom, and to what extent a complex health intervention works (or does not work). Realist evaluations are often "methods-flexible" and encourage the appropriate use of a range of evidence types that provide explanatory value. However, there is a lack of…

This article establishes a framework for teaching and learning for mutual respect. I define mutual respect as intervening on power asymmetries typically found in classrooms by way of according students increased equality, autonomy, and equity. In highlighting how equality, autonomy, and equity interact in ongoing and unpredictable ways in…

What explains why reductive explanations of social phenomena in the global South persist? This paper addresses this question by considering how researchers' assumptions of their positionality premised upon global North-South explanations of power shape "how" they collect and determine the scope of their data. Building upon standpoint…

To read this article, it is important to know that I am a transnational (but not transracial) adoptee and that my Taiwanese birth mother hoped my adoption would give me a "better" life in the United States. I present three interconnected arguments that introduce the concept of a "nomen"curriculum. The first argument is that my…

This article suggests three orientations within sociology toward issues of morality and character development. The first stems from Durkheim, one where sociological tools diagnose the operation of any society and its constituent parts, including typifications of the individual. This tradition holds that sociologists can help diagnose…
