Dunn, Alyssa Hadley – Educational Researcher, 2023
In this manuscript, I argue that narratives of self-care for educators in the midst of pandemic teaching are a form of gaslighting, supported and exacerbated by a neoliberal school system that reinforces individualist, White-normed conceptions of teaching and learning. To make this argument, I use several excerpts from practicing teachers' writing…

In this inquiry, I explore, expose, and extrapolate upon sociopolitical and environmental absurdism as an environmental academic and educator based in Alberta, Canada--a well-known, and somewhat infamous, centre of oil and gas production and energy development in general.

Mette Hjort – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2025
While concepts of care and caring have a long history, the terms have become especially prominent in recent times.

Linking the…
