Lei, Jiedi; Jones, Lauren; Brosnan, Mark – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021

Boda, Phillip A. – Research in Science Education, 2021
Science teacher education has long sought to educate new science teachers to more fully understand "Science-for-all" and prepare them to effectively navigate diverse contexts. To adopt this "Science-for-all" mantra, we need to address what the labeling (i.e., categorical labeling and/or mislabeling) of students with…

Hetrick, Allyse A.; Kern, Lee; Dever, Bridget V. – Behavioral Disorders, 2022
Epidemiologic research suggests a gap between prevalence estimates of students with emotional or behavioral problems and the actual number of students identified under the federal category of emotional disturbance (ED). To better understand issues related to the identification gap, we investigated the academic and behavioral functioning,…

Mercieca, Duncan P.; Mercieca, Daniela – International Journal of Inclusive Education, 2020
Various instruments that have the aim of assessing children even from a very young age are constantly being developed. We argue that these instruments and assessment processes risk removing judgement from educators and teachers. Using the Aristotelian concept of "phronêsis," we argue that teachers need to develop a habit of engaging with…

Gillespie-Lynch, Kristen; Daou, Nidal; Obeid, Rita; Reardon, Siobhan; Khan, Spogmay; Goldknopf, Emily J. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Little remains known about the degree to which autistic university students are stigmatized relative to students with other diagnoses. We conducted an online survey with students in New York City (n = 633) and Beirut (n = 274). Students with diagnoses that were perceived as dangerous (e.g., psychopathy) were more stigmatized than students with…

Gonzalo Pérez Andrade; Hannah M. King – Language and Intercultural Communication, 2024
Despite their diversity, UK school pupils with non-English home languages are uniformly labelled English as an additional language (EAL), presupposing linguistic deficiencies and academic challenges; thus, equating multilingualism with vulnerability. As part of a researcher-practitioner collaboration with a London primary school, we explore how…

Caroline Bartlett; Joseph R. Cimpian; Madeline Mavrogordato – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2024
Reclassification, the process by which English learner (EL) students exit EL classification, often determines ELs' access to mainstream academic coursework. While existing research finds that many students who demonstrate English proficiency do not reclassify, few studies evaluate policies that effectively reclassify eligible students. This study…

Valerie J. Thompson – Journal of Education Human Resources, 2025
Through an unsustainable moniker that often receives no reprieve, Black women student affairs professionals become the institutional fixer--the StrongBlackWoman who can do all. Through a raced and gendered expectation, they support the needs of their students, many of whom are students of color. This effort creates a precarious double bind that…

Jamaal Justin Muwwakkil – ProQuest LLC, 2023
This dissertation uses sociocultural linguistics to investigate how Black undergraduates at a Historically White Institution (HWI) understand Blackness, and how their racial socialization experiences in their pre-college years inform that perspective. This project reveals that many Black undergraduates in the HWI context may not have the benefit…
