Elizabeth K. Jeffers – Educational Policy, 2024
Departing from mainstream accounts of the post-Katrina New Orleans state takeover and the more recent "unification" of schools under local governance, this case study utilizes the plantation (Hartman, 1997; Woods, 1998, McKittrick, 2011) as a theoretical device and the silenced archive (Trouillot, 2015) as a method of inquiry to better…

Lustick, Hilary – Urban Education, 2021

Nichols, T. Philip – Educational Leadership, 2021

Teachers learn about new devices, apps, teaching techniques, and leadership strategies as they show up in articles, reports, and other professional resources, or after they have already been implemented elsewhere.…

Ngo, Federick J.; Velasquez, David – Urban Education, 2023
Examining linked academic transcripts from urban community colleges and their feeder high schools, we identify math course-taking patterns that span sectors.
