Equity and inclusion efforts have increased at educational institutions in the United States. However, equity and inclusion leadership has been fraught with political challenges, as well as a lack of resources, clear strategic direction, and campus support and engagement. The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study aimed to examine the…

While environmental education has been present in the field of education for decades now, only recently our particular subject areas of science and geography have started to pay more critical attention to specific concerns surrounding the intersection of environmental issues and social justice (also known as environmental justice) within the…

Video diaries are an innovative tool for ethnographic research, contributing to the quality of fieldwork and ethnographic data by giving additional attention to participant voices. Grounded in two fieldwork periods in secondary and higher education, this paper illustrates three key qualities through which video diaries contributed to ethnographic…

Background: In the wake of COVID-19 and protests against racial violence, scholars of education, alongside educational organizations, called for innovative responses to address racial injustice, but one solution was consistently mentioned across educational spaces: the need for educators to reimagine education in a postpandemic/endemic world. And…

Music educators are guided by learning standards designed to foster comprehensive music literacy through development of four artistic processes: "Create," "Perform," "Respond," and "Connect." In-service teachers, however, cite lack of comfort and insufficient preservice preparation to engage students with…

Globally, the use of visuo-semiotic models (VSMs) in the mathematics classroom is called for across levels and topics. Literature confirms that visual cognition/literacy in teachers is limited and that their capabilities in visual representation is low. The aim of this study was therefore to explore pre-service teachers' (PSTs) conception of VSMs…

Research studies have documented the causes of perceived stress in teachers, while less attention has been given to identifying appropriate stress-management strategies. The aim of this article is to provide insight into the strategies for coping with stress that newly qualified primary and lower secondary school teachers with a five-year…

This paper captures and reports on mathematics pre-service teacher (PST) voices. Mathematics PSTs, in a tertiary mathematics secondary curriculum teaching subject assessment, were asked to perform a small-scale literature review on an issue they identified as important in mathematics teaching. The assessment, written as an article, required…

Sarah Longair launched a collaborative project between school history teachers and university historians in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. In this article, Longair and her teacher colleagues, Kerry Milligan and Emma McKenna, share how they used online collaboration to develop a flexible and practical approach to school-university…

Undergraduate mathematics instructors are called by many current standards to promote prospective teachers' learning of geometry from a transformation perspective, marking a change from previous standards. The novelty of this situation means it is unclear what is involved in undergraduate learning and teaching of geometry from a transformation…

This paper is about the role and the potential of the history of mathematics in mathematics education. We report a discussion that we had about theoretical issues in this context, particularly about the notion of Otherness as developed by the French philosopher Emmanuel Levinas. The focus is on the reading of historical texts, both in the context…

This study used the Communities of Practice (CoP) framework to analyze how social media helped build an online community in a collaborative process by carrying out exploratory research design. For eight weeks, data was collected from ten teachers enrolled in an educational technology graduate program. The data was collected by Facebook through…

This study investigated secondary school teacher's experiences in learning to teach 21st Century skills through the design and implementation of Project based (PBL) curriculum. Data collection focused on in-service teachers who completed a 3-unit, 16-week course part of a Master's degree program in Curriculum & Instruction (C & I). Data…

Secondary English Language Arts classrooms are spaces where teachers can pursue justice through curricular, pedagogical, assessment, and discretionary decisions they make, using popular asset (i.e., cultural modeling, culturally responsive pedagogy) and justice pedagogies (i.e., critical literacies, culturally sustaining pedagogy, restorative…

While many schools have gravitated away from an emphasis on 'zero tolerance' discipline, embracing a range of 'restorative practices' (RP), only a handful of empirical studies have examined how RP have been received by educators. Moreover, frameworks which embrace RP in the classroom often neglect newer forms of online-mediated conflict and harm…
