In this paper, four scholars with minoritized identities explore the impact of harm and/or trauma when engaging in research alongside minoritized student populations. Using collaborative autoethnography, the researchers engaged in a process of individual journaling and collaborative dialogue to understand the ways in which they prepared for,…

Interdisciplinary research is a popular mode of knowledge production that becomes intensively promoted by research centers all across the globe. Despite the facilitation of interdisciplinary research, however, scholars working in these centers are 'disciplined.' Career promotions, funding decisions and scientific publishing are based on…

Purpose: When we speak, we gesture, and indeed, persons with aphasia gesture more frequently. The reason(s) for this is still being investigated, spurring an increase in the number of studies of gesture in persons with aphasia. As the number of studies increases, so too does the need for a shared set of best practices for gesture research in…

Qualitative training rarely acknowledges the role of emotions in both data collection and analysis. While bracketing emotions is an important part of reflexivity, emotions are both a source of data and a source of 'work' (Hochschild, 1983). Accordingly, mentoring junior qualitative scholars also requires emotion work. Issues of race, gender, and…

Teacher reports on school organizational functioning, curricular processes, and student engagement are a reliable means of ascertaining valuable information about classroom climate and learning outcomes. Yet, to date, the vast majority of quantitative teacher-reported data, where teachers themselves reach judgments about educational processes,…

There is debate about whether and how educational research has relevance for and is accessible to teaching practitioners. Much literature highlights the value of practitioner-based research approaches as a pathway to engaging teachers more readily with and in research, however, the practitioner research approach is often viewed negatively and is…

What does it mean to be an early childhood teacher in a time of pandemic? Which stories remain constant in our profession and which are lost to the hand of physical distance? This narrative inquiry explores the persistent role of story in the creation of the body of the classroom community, and the sustaining of a practice of an early childhood…

This article problematizes the role of the interview as a methodological strategy that loses its easy replication when employed in studies with undocumented youth. We raise questions about the contingencies of conducting qualitative interviews with undocumented youth -- what does it mean leverage the interview-event as a space of healing for them?…

This paper contributes a discursive perspective on how academics employ self-deprecating humour and laughter to talk about and construct the struggles they faced in academia. Underpinned by ethnomethodological approaches to studying spoken interactions, the paper argues that just as utterances accomplish social actions, academic struggles are…

In recent years, advocates for research-based education have publicized many examples of passive research involvement, defined as undergraduates learning about the content and lived experience of research at their institution. But the qualitative dimensions of passive research involvement remain unknown. The authors' study uses Diana Laurillard's…

This paper seeks to explain and share resources with teachers/colleagues to help them incorporate a walking-based Arts-Based Educational Research in their own classrooms. First, it proposes walking to be a viable research, art-making and pedagogical tool; followed with a template to use in the classroom to help pre-service art education students…

Collective academic supervision (CAS) is a collective model for students' academic supervision to reduce their isolation and as a measure to establish a congenial culture and to develop networks with their peers. Most studies focus on the benefits of online CAS, leaving the pedagogical process and students' learning experiences understudied. This…

One of the most important goals of Mind, Brain, and Education (MBE) researchers is bridging the connection between science and educational practice. To achieve this goal, we propose a novel authentic partnership model based on the analyses of demands, capacities, and responsibilities of both researchers and local schools. The Peiyuan Project in…

This research aimed to explore the conceptual structure of chemical equilibrium in upper-secondary school students using factor analysis. Research on chemistry education has shown that chemical equilibrium is an important but difficult-to-understand topic. Exploring the conceptual structure of chemical equilibrium among students will help…

More faculty are making the foray into digital scholarship as its tools offer novel and efficient approaches to answering research questions. However, faculty seeking to incorporate digital methods into their research may not have the necessary technical skills. Increasingly, libraries are adding digital scholarship support to the research support…
