Understanding distinctions between morality and conventions is an important milestone in children's moral development. The current meta-analysis integrated decades of social domain theory research (Smetana, 2006; Turiel, 1983) on moral and conventional judgments from early to middle childhood. We examined 95 effect sizes from 18 studies (2,707…

Despite increasing attention to citizenship education since the turn of the 21st century, the recent spread of authoritarian populism worldwide has raised relatively little attention in educational policy and research. As a result, the possibilities and limitations that national curricula offer to educators to deal with this phenomenon are still…

Diagnostic classification models (DCMs) are psychometric models designed to classify examinees according to their proficiency or nonproficiency of specified latent characteristics. These models are well suited for providing diagnostic and actionable feedback to support intermediate and formative assessment efforts. Several DCMs have been developed…

Due to the learning paradox, students cannot have real difficulty in understanding a mathematical concept that they have not yet understood. There is a gap between real difficulties, directly experienced by students, and illusionary ones, only observed by researchers. This paper aims to offer a critical reflection on our understanding of the term…

The emerging literature on research-practice partnerships in education explains the conditions under which these partnerships operate to achieve the desired impact. This study adds to that literature base by exploring variation in the perceived impacts across three partnerships whose goal was improving achievement for multilingual learner…

Public sector accounting education (PSAE) has recently attracted increasing attention from both scholars and practitioners. Nonetheless, there is still an education/practice gap that undermines public servants' ability to face the complexity of the current working environment. This paper reviews and critiques the PSAE literature, identifies the…

How do universities encourage academics to buy into a shared vision while often setting punitive targets in teaching and research? This article explores possible antecedents of a university's shared vision and its relationships with academics' research and teaching performance in the era of managerialism. This cross-country study of two large…

Following Jones and Stewart's (2016) organization of student development scholarship into three waves, researchers have advanced understandings of learning and development using critical and poststructural frameworks. Though many scholars understand what scholarship fits under this third wave, less guidance is available to shape studies of…

Introduction: The ageing world gives rise to changing family structures, as well as the way different generations interact with each other. While research on intergenerational relationships and intergenerational learning have started as early as in the 1960s and 1970s in North America and Europe, little is known about scholarly discussions in this…

Effective research in educational settings requires collaboration between researchers and school-based practitioners to codesign instruction and assessment, analyze findings to inform subsequent iterations, and make thoughtful revisions. This innovative reference and course text examines the theory and practice of design-based research (DBR), an…

The purpose of this article is to differentially engage in the work of thinking with Indigenous theorists and theories with decolonizing science education research methodologies in mind. As a rejoinder to Tracey McMahon, Emily Griese, and DenYelle Baete Kenyon's "Cultivating Native American scientists: An application of an Indigenous model to…

Given the rapid growth of research-practices partnerships (RPPs), we need a framework that helps the field understand how RPPs can facilitate mutual learning for those involved. Drawing on both cultural-historical and organizational learning theories, we argue that learning can happen in RPPs for both researchers and practitioners at the…

Purpose: The practice of theory borrowing from other research fields is common in interdisciplinary and applied research. Nevertheless, educational administration researchers seldom discuss this phenomenon and its complexities in depth. Design/methodology/approach: This essay provides an overview of what has been written about the practice of…

This article explores affective alignment and epistemic polarization in the field of feminist research, resulting from the neoliberalization of the universities and a performance-oriented research economy. Previous research has described and analysed the 'epistemic splitting' that feminist scholars engage in to live up to standardized performance…
