Jansen, Amanda; Kalb, Lorianne; McCunney, Denise – Democracy & Education, 2021
How can middle school mathematics teachers navigate their roles as authorities in managing classroom democracies while providing their students with opportunities to exercise their rights?

Jickling, Bob; Blenkinsop, Sean – Canadian Journal of Environmental Education, 2020
The first climate change conference was held in 1979 in Geneva and sponsored by the World Meteorological Organization. Since then there have been many other initiatives and accords along the way.

Darwich, Lina – Democracy & Education, 2020
McGuire, Stevahn, and Bronsther (2019) focused on civic education in elementary grades, an important but sorely missing topic in schools.

Farley, Amy N.; Chamberlain, Leah M. – New Educator, 2021
Since 2015, several high-profile surveys have painted a grim portrait of teacher stress and job satisfaction. Although some educators have attributed those trends to educational accountability and reform, little evidence exists connecting education policies to teacher working conditions or -- more distally -- to the mental and physical health of…

Arlene Laverde – Knowledge Quest, 2023
Now more than ever school librarians need to be advocates. COVID brought to light so many things that are wrong with the education system around the country.

Bolumole, Motunrola – Higher Education Research and Development, 2020
In this personal account of living through the coronavirus pandemic as a US graduate student, I reflect on the major events and themes that defined the time: the hasty closure of university campuses, the clumsy transition to remote learning, the economic consequences, the controversial reopening of campuses, and finally, my hopes for US higher…

Guilbaud, Sylwyn – Scottish Educational Review, 2019
I watch my eighteen-month old daughter talking to the soft-bodied doll that I have made her. I wonder what she sees in the undefined cloth face. I wonder if she will make a similar doll for her child one day and I wonder if she will wonder as I do. While the repetition across generations of early childhood experience is both common sense and much…
