Lee, Sun Young – Curriculum Inquiry, 2021
This article explores the cultural practice of observation in teacher education, focusing on how teachers "learn to see" the differences between students.

Public Policy Institute of California, 2021
California has begun moving toward a "cradle to career" approach that connects early childhood, K-12, and higher education more closely. But COVID-19 has disrupted learning, funding, and progress toward improving student outcomes and has exacerbated racial and economic equity gaps. This publication is part of a briefing kit that focuses…

Howard, Rachelle Una – ProQuest LLC, 2022
The problem that was addressed in this study was the digital divide in virtual learning following the outbreak of COVID-19.

The purpose of this quantitative correlational study was to…

This commentary provides an external perspective on NASP's first public report on racial and ethnic differences in Praxis outcomes.

In Chile, a vast and persistent gender gap in math performance at university admission has negative consequences for women's opportunities. International evidence suggests that these gender differences reflect gender inequities in educational and economic opportunities available in a given culture. A theoretical model suggests that sociocultural…

Madriaga, Manuel – International Journal of Inclusive Education, 2020
This article highlights antiblackness pervading English higher education. This antiblackness is attributed to a majoritarian view, which not only upholds the view that education is value-neutral, meritocratic, colour-blind, but also has a cultural disregard for those racialized as Black Minority Ethnic (BME). There has been considerable attention…

Additionally, the Latino population is projected to increase by 25 percent by 2030. Furthermore, the median age for Latinos is 30, compared to 44 for White non-Hispanics. As more…

Folk, Amanda L. – College & Research Libraries, 2019
Within the past decade, academic librarianship has increased its focus on critical librarianship and assessing student success, as well as undergoing a complete reconceptualization of information literacy.

Jordt, Hannah Lillian – ProQuest LLC, 2019

Kennedy, Jade; Percy, Alisa; Thomas, Lisa; Moyle, Catherine; Delahunty, Janine – Teaching in Higher Education, 2021
Since Universities Australia's Indigenous Strategy recommended a sector-wide approach to 'closing the gap' between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians, universities have grappled with how to do this. Resisting mainstream approaches to curriculum development that eschew any kind of relational accountability (Wilson, Shawn. 2008.…
