Noelle Brown; Sara Nurollahian; Eliane S. Wiese – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2025
While there have been many calls for teaching ethics and responsible computing, it is unclear how responsible computing instruction and technical learning interact. Some instructors even hesitate to include ethics in their courses, fearing it might distract students from learning technical computing content. An approach called…

Martino Ongis; David Kidd; Jess Miner – Journal of Academic Ethics, 2024
As colleges and universities seek to invigorate ethics education, they need methods to identify where and describe how ethics is already present across their curricula. Meeting this need is complicated by the fact that much ethics education occurs in courses not explicitly focused on ethics or morality. In this paper, we review recent…

Guy Axtell – Philosophical Inquiry in Education, 2024
What distinguishes the philosophies of education advanced by pragmatists? Does pragmatism have something distinctive to offer contemporary philosophy of education? This paper applies these questions, which Randall Curren asks in "Pragmatist Philosophy of Education" (2009), to a more specific current debate in philosophy of education: the…

David T. Hansen – Educational Theory, 2024
In this article, David Hansen works with two conceptions of "being with." The first is Jean-Luc Nancy's ontological version as found in his "Being Singular Plural" (1999). The second is Hansen's ontic formulation as expressed in his recent book, "Reimagining the Call to Teach: A Witness to Teachers and Teaching"…

The aim of this autoethnography is to explore caring strategies for use in the teaching of sensitive and controversial issues in higher education.

Scott Gelber – Review of Higher Education, 2024
Scholars have analyzed debates about controversial faculty speech inside and outside of the classroom, but none have paid close attention to the facet of academic freedom related to professors' decisions about daily teaching methods. This omission, along with obstacles to enacting pedagogical norms, has caused the scholarly community to overlook…

Gerry Dunne – Education and Culture, 2024
This short review examines Chapter 5 of Sarah M. Stitzlein's "Teaching Honesty in a Populist Era: Emphasizing Truth in the Education of Citizens," concentrating on "The Role of Honesty in Teaching About Controversial Issues." Emphasizing what I call "zetetic avoidance creep" (ZAC), the review explores how teachers may…

This article explores the potential impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools on Instructional Design (ID) workflows and organizations from a systems thinking perspective (Meadows, 2008).

Sarah M. Stitzlein – Education and Culture, 2024
In this brief essay, I respond to four critics of my most recent book, "Teaching Honesty in a Populist Era: Emphasizing Truth in the Education of Citizens" (Oxford University Press, 2024). I attend to their concerns regarding who is included in the "we" of the fundamental civic question, "What should we do?" That…

Bruce Maxwell – Educational Theory, 2025
When do teachers need to deal with sociopolitical issues impartially and when are they justified in taking a stand? In the academic literature, attempts to answer this question have centered on the relative merits of four criteria of "controversial issues": the epistemic criterion, the behavioral criterion, the politically authentic…

Ruth Wareham – Educational Theory, 2025
The COVID-19 pandemic brought the importance of vaccination and public attitudes toward it firmly to the fore. However, vaccine hesitancy and refusal remain significant barriers to global uptake, with post-pandemic declines in routine immunization contributing to disease outbreaks worldwide. Research shows that education plays a vital role in…

Rowena A. Azada-Palacios – Ethics and Education, 2025
This paper is a reflective response to Tena Thau's suggestion -- in her 2024 piece 'Moral Philosophy as War Propaganda' -- that philosophy has little to teach about the war in Gaza (and, by extension, similar cases of widespread, horrific human suffering). I first reconstruct one of the arguments that Thau makes in her piece. I then show that her…

Robert Jean LeBlanc – Changing English: Studies in Culture and Education, 2024
This article explores the potential of narrative interest for secondary literature education. Narrative is a purposeful construction which is organised with the intent of having effects on readers. For rhetorical narratologists, narrative is driven by the production of narrative gaps -- suspense, curiosity, and surprise -- which in turn drive…

Sarah M. Stitzlein – Philosophical Inquiry in Education, 2024
Many teachers and education scholars are quick to endorse discussing controversial issues in classrooms, especially in the context of "divisive concept" legislation that proposes bans or limitations on how contentious matters are taught in schools. This approach, however, may not be the best choice in a post-truth and populist setting…
