Kvernbekk, Tone – Educational Theory, 2011
There exists a vast literature on evidence-based practice (EBP) in education.

Lockwood, Elise; Knuth, Eric – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2014
In many STEM-related fields, graduating doctoral students are often expected to assume a postdoctoral position as a prerequisite to a faculty position, yet there is no such expectation in mathematics education.

An Occupation's Responsibility: The Role of Social Foundations in the Cultivation of Professionalism
Gunzenhauser, Michael G. – Critical Questions in Education, 2013
In this essay, the author argues that inquiry and engagement in the social foundations of education is fundamental to cultivating professionalism in education.

Not so many years ago the American language was purged of offensive statements by political correctness.

This article focuses on how confession operates in contemporary discourses on reflective practices.
