Hamilton-McKenna, Caroline – Children's Literature in Education, 2021
Where and how do I belong? As Erin Spring (2016a) notes in her examination of space, place, and youth engagement with literature, "young adult fiction is fraught with implications for identity, of which place often takes center stage" (p. 432). Yet despite the ubiquity of adolescent characters' negotiations within and across physical and…

Doecke, Brenton – Changing English: Studies in Culture and Education, 2021
This autobiographical essay explores the significance that Marxist literary theory has had for me as an English educator.

Keto, Sami; Foster, Raisa – International Studies in Sociology of Education, 2021
This paper describes a conceptual extension of the socialization process and its implications for education. The motivation to the coining of ecosocialization comes from a recent turn in different branches of science, which forces us to problematize the anthropocentric view of life. The theoretical analysis combines the frameworks of phenomenology…

Spatial reasoning is seen as increasingly important in STEM fields. Within mathematics, geometry is a potential site to study and support young children's spatial reasoning.

Jennifer A. Horwitz – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Even as environmental scholars agree on the urgency of climate change, the crisis is less often linked to the US education system itself, which continues to operate as if we were not in the midst of a planetary emergency. As more environmental educators advocate for substantive change, little attention has been paid to how the study of literature…

Stein, Sharon; Andreotti, Vanessa; Suša, Rene; Ahenakew, Cash; Cajková, Tereza – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2022
In this article, we address the limitations of sustainable development as an orienting educational horizon of hope and change, given that mainstream development presumes the possibility of perpetual growth and consumption on a finite planet. Facing these limitations requires us to consider the inherently violent and unsustainable nature of our…
