This case study reflects upon practices of community-engaged scholarship and teaching as autoethnography research rooted in Indigenous educational sovereignty and decolonization. In this case study, readers are invited to contemplate how their positionalities, and practices in their respective fields, could be framed into active research. Readers…

This case study presents a multistage and multimodal methodology for conducting online research studies using video conferencing tools. We designed our methodology to capture how Brazilian schoolchildren (ages 9-11) transact, alone or with others, homework information-searching routines. Our case study presents the steps involved in designing an…

"Educational Explanations" is a comprehensive study of the main philosophical questions that confront empirical educational researchers. The book outlines the sense in which empirical educational research pursues truth and sets out and defends an account of its task as the offering of explanations for the many educational problems that…

This case study discusses responsive walking methods from a yearlong river-child-walking project situated in early childhood education. Grounded by feminist anti-colonialism, this project reconfigured children's relations with a local river and challenged dominant, extractive methods of discovery. A behind-the-scenes approach is taken in this case…

The anthropological study of interactions between Africans and Native Americans has not always been recognized for its intersectionality. Yet, as early as the 1880s, studies revealed how the everyday lives of African and Native American cultures intersected, illuminating the complex junctions of culture and race in their identities.

In this case study, I provide the methodologic approaches I used to investigate four in-service biology teachers' perspectives when using science instruction to address racial stereotypes within secondary science education. This case study provides practical advice for novice qualitative researchers who wish to conduct and design an intervention…

Stereotypes about subcultures (e.g., Freaks, Nerds, Stoners) have become increasingly utilized to describe subgroups in society. For youth, they are tools for bullying and a way of describing bullies. They are also mundane styles that describe qualities about all of us in some limited capacity. This case study reflects upon online research methods…

The case study draws on design thinking. It offers a research and innovation case method to address so-called wicked problems, that is, complex problems with many interdependent and incomplete factors and variables requiring deep understanding of the involved stakeholders and the innovative approach provided by design thinking. The case takes as…
