Holgersen, Ståle – Journal of Geography in Higher Education, 2021

In this paper, I argue there is a need to better incorporate theory into field trips. I seek to explore relations between…

Ludvig Sunnemark; Fredrik Sunnemark; Karl Dahlquist; Emil Gahnström; Per Assmo; Laurence Piper – Critical Studies in Education, 2024
In this article we interrogate how University of Sweden (UoS), the leading Work-integrated learning (WIL) university in Sweden, represents WIL publicly, discussing this in relation to higher education's changing role within an increasingly knowledge-based capitalism, in which knowledge and research become subsumed under demands for market utility…

In many parts of the world, researchers and policymakers alike report possible threats to democracy and its institutions.

Arce, Alvaro J.; Young, Michael J. – International Journal of Testing, 2022
The paper argues that contemporary test validity theory places the consequences of testing on the lives of all college applicants at the back of the test validation argument. It introduces the notion of test efficacy as a process to gather evidence on claims on consequences of testing on all college applicants that can be traced back to validity.…

Physical education (PE), and specifically the teaching area of dance, has been identified as an important pedagogical setting within which young people develop creativity. Creativity is thus an important aspect of schooling. Several studies have suggested however, that dance is seldom taught in PE in ways that acknowledge creative aspects of…

Österling, Lisa – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2022
The present study adds to an ongoing debate about third spaces in teacher education, spaces where theory and practice come together. One third space is constituted by the written tasks from practicum. Yet research has shown only modest emphasis on theory in such tasks. Tasks from two versions of a programme are used to represent two different…
