Sustainability education governance plays a vital role in advancing global environmental and social goals, yet its institutional forms vary widely across countries and regions. While international frameworks such as SDG 4.7 and UNESCO's Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) provide broad objectives, the ways in which sustainability education…

This study explores how public school teachers who were classified as English learners (ELs) in childhood make sense of the EL category, and how their beliefs shape their work with students who are designated as ELs. One understudied context in the field of effective education for ELs is the experience of teachers who were personally impacted by…

Accountability for racially disproportionate discipline and dis/ability classification has conventionally spotlighted the disparate impact on students. Typically, findings such as "x% of African American students were suspended" or "y% of Latinx students were misidentified as having learning dis/abilities" reinforce this…

The paper presents a framework for school guidance in the twenty-first century that focuses the guidance approach, on promoting lifelong learning and takes into account the impact of VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity). It outlines the goals, objectives, and key players involved in guidance approach and provides a structured…

In this article we develop a typology of anti-racist action in education. Using teachers' practices and experiences, we highlight six approaches on how teachers counter racism in their schools. Each approach entails a different set of actions and aims to address different manifestations of racism. They range from actions that seek to challenge…

The purpose of this qualitative meta-analysis (QMA) is to provide a concise and comprehensive picture of findings across qualitative studies to answer this question: What factors contribute to systematically closing the opportunity gap for all students, and particularly for students labelled linguistically and culturally diverse? The ultimate goal…

This important book offers a meta-theoretical account of educational theories and how they work. It offers a classification scheme of distinct types of educational theory in which the account developed can inform the work of educational theorists and practitioners. Kvernbekk observes throughout how meta-theoretical knowledge of the structure of…

By assessing student engagement with learning tasks along with students' understanding of subject matter before and during teaching, teachers are able to shift their teaching approaches through improvisational pedagogical reasoning in real time. However, if a teacher does not know how to respond to students' cues, their capacity to effectively…

This paper presents findings from our project entitled 'Diversity in Unity: Developing an anti-racist framework within Froebelian pedagogy'. We apply an ethnography by proxy approach informed by the work of Jones and Okun on colonial and decolonial habits. Drawing from two nursery settings in England and Scotland, we engage with the methodological…

Multilingual learners in the United States are often segregated for parts of the school day in ways that limit their learning opportunities. Given a resurgence in monolingual and anti-immigrant language policy, the role of educators in promoting multilingual learner integration is increasingly important. We draw from four qualitative studies…

Efforts to strengthen inclusive practice in education have been found to be underpinned by encounters with dilemmas. In particular, much has been written about the 'dilemma of difference', which is the perceived tension between wanting to provide for individual needs in education and wanting to avoid stigmatising individuals by treating them…

Disparate educational outcomes persist for culturally and linguistically diverse learners despite numerous efforts to encourage pre-service and in-service teachers to adopt culturally relevant education. The operationalization of culturally relevant education, however, remains relatively unexplored as an explanation for teacher resistance.…

Background: The ever-increasing computational demands call for optimal resource utilisation and system performance in the cloud environment. Organisations are increasingly migrating workloads to cloud platforms, mandating the need for efficient resource distribution. Load balancing, a critical cloud component, ensures equitable distribution of…

In order to further the argument for the consideration of advising as a high-impact practice, there is a need for the organization of knowledge surrounding advising. This chapter contributes to the ongoing efforts to chronicle the landscape of literature on the scholarship, administration, and practice of advising. Summarization of the major…

Histories of statistics and quantification have demonstrated that systems of statistical knowledge participate in the construction of the objects that are measured. However, the pace, purpose, and scope of quantification in state bureaucracy have expanded greatly over the past decades, fuelled by (neoliberal) societal trends that have given the…
