Means, Alexander J.; Slater, Graham B. – British Journal of Sociology of Education, 2021
Despite proliferating attention within the social sciences toward the sources and consequences of climate change and environmental crises, educational sociologists have been slow to confront ecological questions. This omission may seem surprising given the prominence of global perspectives within the field. However, we argue, such a focus is…

Strom, Kathryn J.; Viesca, Kara Mitchell – Professional Development in Education, 2021
Although many researchers agree that teaching is complex and contextually situated, dominant conceptions of teacher learning, and the enactment of such learning in practice, tend to be linear and reductionist. Because simplistic conceptualisations of teaching activity have far-reaching impact on teachers, students, and school systems, generating a…

Lawrence, Penny – Contemporary Issues in Early Childhood, 2023
This article generates two dialogical theorisations of young children's encounters in more-than-human worlds involving metaphor. The first theorisation devises metaphor as an entry point into the dialogues of more-than-humans and includes rare attention to metaphors as multimodal intra-action. The second theorisation provides an alternative to…

Elliot, Andrew J.; Sommet, Nicolas – Educational Psychology Review, 2023
Integration is a valuable yet underutilized process in scientific literatures, including the achievement motivation literature.

Larsson, Håkan – Quest, 2023
Pedagogies for movement learning have been affected by a gap between natural science and social science. The gap has meant that pedagogy tend to focus relatively more on either product, material context, and normative ways of moving, or process, learners, social context, and non-normative ways of moving. Here, I suggest that philosopher and…

Prabakaran, Madhu – Higher Education for the Future, 2023
The article's central theme is that knowing cannot be equated with knowledge because knowing is an innate process and knowledge is a product. Knowing as an intuitive process is an inalienable experience, whereas knowledge is an alienable property. Knowledge is a discursive construct of human political economy, whereas knowing is the very character…

Andrea Fiore – Educational Theory, 2023
In this paper, Andrea Fiore sketches the notion of familiarity in Dewey's thought, particularly in its relations with education, aesthetics, and art.

Niklas Luhmann – Educational Theory, 2023
Inquiries into the medium of education take up a question that has so far usually been answered teleologically or psychologically. The coherence of educational endeavors has been illustrated by their objective, and this again has been illustrated by the changes in the state of the educatees. The difficulty of such an approach is that no educator…

MacGill, Belinda – International Journal of Art & Design Education, 2023
Understanding and advancing pluralist worldviews through education is a tenet of decolonisation. This paper explores the importance of a decolonial pedagogical framework in visual art and design education by disrupting epistemic injustice through employing creative body-based learning (CBL). This approach focuses on relationality and…

Henderson, Emerald – Theory and Research in Education, 2023
A new theory of emulation--the method by which one learns from moral role models--is emerging through the combined efforts of philosophers, psychologists and educationists. Using a previous argument reconceptualising emulation as a moral virtue as a philosophical springboard, in this paper, I extend this theory by building a more robust case for…

Margaret Beale Spencer – Review of Research in Education, 2023
In analyzing the disseminated call, the commentary suggests the need for a consciousness consistent with a quote from Maya Angelou concerning identity. It is applied--in this case--to the situation of social science and specifically developmental science vis-à-vis published scholarship pertaining to communities of color. Questioned is the field's…

Coleman, Jason; Pankl, Lis – Communications in Information Literacy, 2020
In the chapter we wrote 10 years ago for "Critical Library Instruction: Theories and Methods" we asked instructors to free themselves from the stifling heritage of positivism that privileged tools and instrumentality above meaning. Drawing on Henry Giroux and Oscar Wilde, we urged our peers to embrace dialogue that respects the…
