This study infused storytelling through "platicas" (interactive interviews) conversations with five individual…

Student achievement disparities in inclusive science classrooms are concerning, as knowledge about science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) is increasingly important for upward mobility. When students identify with multiple marginalized sociocultural groups, progress becomes more troubling, as the interplay among these factors is…

The effective implementation of blended learning for transforming higher education is hindered by a lack of consensus on its definition. There is a dearth of comprehensive attempts to understand blended learning at the intersection of policy documents and academic literature, particularly in the Indian higher education context.

The incorporation of intersectionality into the study of belonging and inclusion/exclusion mechanisms in educational institutions acknowledges the complexity of potentially discriminatory factors such as ethnic background, linguistic diversity, gender, class, and (dis)ability, and the overlaps and interaction between them when it comes to…

For Black/African American LGBTQIA+ college students, adjustment and success in college is often shaped by the complex and pervasive nature of the interplay…

In 2016, Missouri State University (MSU) received a National Science Foundation (NSF) grant to provide scholarships in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (S-STEM) for academically talented students with financial need. The MSU S-STEM program provided two years of financial and academic assistance, supporting students who began their…

Background/Context: Although research on the experiences of multiply-marginalized Black and Brown students with dis/abilities in higher education is limited, this growing body of work indicates that these students navigate racialized perceptions of ability, which impact their experiences on college and university campuses. This research highlights…

Background/Context: This paper explores how intersectionality and DisCrit can be used as analytic tools to scaffold preservice teachers' ability to see the ways in which referrals to and services within special education reproduce inequities as a function of race and perceptions of ability that are rooted in White, middle-class, able-bodied norms.…

Little is known, however, about these students or about the…
