Roth, Wolff-Michael; Walshaw, Margaret – Pedagogies: An International Journal, 2020
There is a well-established area of work in mathematics education focusing on mathematics for social justice.

Navarro, Oscar – Curriculum Inquiry, 2018
Since the passing of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB), neoliberal policies, such as standardized curriculum, high-stakes tests, accountability measures, school choice, charter schools, value-added models and school privatization have pushed social justice teaching to the margins. As a result, many educators endure demoralization, teach…

Logan, Sandra; Shellgren, Madeline – Journal of General Education, 2019
This article traces the reconceptualization of a primarily co-curricular undergraduate enrichment program, from experienced-based to competency-based development. It argues that, rather than holding a central place in the program's curriculum, the concept of "deliberative democracy" that grounds the program is best understood as an…

Central to such a shift, it is argued, is the need for…

Adarlo, Genejane; Marquez, Norman Dennis – Journal of College Student Development, 2017
