Peschl, Markus F. – Learning Organization, 2023
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to challenge processes of organizational learning and innovation that are based on making use of, extrapolating, or adapting past experiences and knowledge, because such a strategy turns out to be incapable of dealing with the challenges of today's volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous environment. As a…

Ruth Irwin – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2025
Education is concerned with the production of intelligence. Is AI intelligent? and what are the implications for educating humanity? Samuel Butler makes the case that machinery emerges in co-relation with the evolution of humanity. In other words, the evolution of machines relies on the human intervention for reproduction, and the evolution of…

Lu, Xiaoyun; Ding, Yan – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2020
To obtain knowledge is not the purpose of education, but to develop one's potential ability and to obtain wisdom is. We are living in a fast changing world and knowledge is growing explosively. Therefore, what facts or information students have known in your class is not the most important thing. What really matters is how efficiently students…

Godino, Juan D.; Burgos, María; Gea, María M. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
The notions of meaning and sense, which are closely related to understanding, play an essential role in educational processes in general and, therefore, in the teaching and learning of mathematics. However, the terms 'meaning' and 'sense' are unevenly used in the theory of language, semiotics, philosophy and psychology. After describing the main…

Wyatt, Tasha R. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2022
As HPE begins to turn their attention to the lived experiences of minoritized groups in society, health professions education (HPE) researchers need to be aware of the history of social science research and the ways it contributes to creating systems of oppression. This is because as 'knowledge producers,' we make decisions about how to design our…

Milner, Marleen; Wolfer, Terry A. – Journal of Social Work Education, 2023
Research suggests that most college and beginning graduate students lack the cognitive complexity required to engage in effective practical and ethical reasoning. Studies on cognitive development support the view that how people approach complex problems varies significantly depending on the underlying epistemic assumptions they use to guide their…

Paricio, Javier – History Education Research Journal, 2021
The epistemological concept of perspective meets all the conditions set by Meyer and Land (2003, 2006) to be considered a threshold concept for history learning. Following this initial hypothesis, this paper analyses the concept and the ways in which it constitutes a threshold: grasping perspective not only transforms one's understanding of…

Beltrán-Pellicer, Pablo; Godino, Juan D. – Cambridge Journal of Education, 2020
A subject of growing interest in mathematics education is the affective domain and its effects on the teaching and learning processes, giving rise to different models of its components and conditioning factors. In this paper, we apply the ontological and semiotic categories from the Onto-Semiotic Approach (OSA) to research in mathematics…

Welton, Michael – International Journal of Adult Education and Technology, 2021
Jurgen Habermas offered a revolutionary way of thinking about the relationship between knowledge, learning, and the human condition in knowledge and human interests. He provided us with a powerful means of understanding the unity in diversity of human learning. The article presents a philosophical framework that enables vocational and adult…

Dohn, Nina Bonderup – Frontline Learning Research, 2021
This article articulates a new theory on the ontology of knowledge transfer. This involves the work of 1) showing that the question "what happens to knowledge in transfer across divergent contexts?" can be made sense of within a situative approach, 2) providing a new conceptualization of situated knowledge, 3) articulating transfer in…

Aneta Hayes; Sylvie Lomer; Sophia Hayat Taha – Educational Review, 2024
This paper focuses on the epistemic inequality of international students as a "new" inequality that is under-represented in the current debates about decolonisation (albeit shaped by colonial discourses depicting international students as in deficit and incapable of meeting the standards of (colonial) universities). In this theoretical…
