Marianna Y. Zhang; J. Nicky Sullivan; Ellen M. Markman; Steven O. Roberts – Child Development Perspectives, 2024
Across development, young children reason about why social inequities exist. However, when left to their own devices, young children might engage in "internal thinking," reasoning that the inequity is simply a justified disparity explained by features internal to social groups (e.g., genetics, intellect, abilities, values). Internal…

Currently, multicultural societies are characterised by multiple, complex, and interdependent changes and challenges at the local, regional, national, and global levels.

Beck, Bernard – Multicultural Perspectives, 2022
Movies have designated dance as a positive way for marginal and groups assigned a low status to cope with the enduring pain of inequality. A brief history of dance movies reveals the sentimental appeal of stories of coping with inequality by adopting dancer identities. The recent movie "Tango Shalom" offers an example of the use of…

Merzifonluoglu, Samet; Hamarat, Ercenk – Ethics and Education, 2022
There is growing interest in epistemic injustice and its connection to education. However, the relation between social studies and epistemic injustice has not yet been adequately explored and this topic has been given insufficient attention by social studies educators. But it is regarded as an important resource for students who are socially…

This paper offers a qualitative analysis of decisions of 64 community-college students in seeking a transfer in Hong Kong.

Samantha Nousak; Leanne Barry; Susan R. Fisk – Teaching Sociology, 2024
Statistical literacy is critical for all sociology students because it facilitates academic and professional success, high-paying jobs, and informed citizenship. Most students, however, lack adequate statistical literacy to engage with sociological research. Within that general deficit, there are gender, racial, and social-class differences, with…

Kershree Padayachee; M. Matimolane – Teaching in Higher Education, 2025
In the shift to Emergency Remote Teaching and Learning (ERT&L) during the COVID-19 pandemic, remote assessment and feedback became a major source of discontent and challenge for students and staff.

Orfield, Gary – Princeton University Press, 2022
In our unequal society, families of color fully share the dream of college but their children often attend schools that do not prepare them, and the higher education system gives the best opportunities to the most privileged. Students of color hope for college but often face a dead end. For many young people, racial inequality puts them at a…

Shahvisi, Arianne – Journal of Philosophy of Education, 2021
In recent years, the removal of monuments which glorify historical figures associated with racism and colonialism has become one of the most visible and contested forms of decolonisation. Yet many have objected that there is educational value in leaving such monuments standing. In this paper, I argue that public monuments can be understood as…

Since the restoration of the "Gaokao" (College Entrance Examination) in 1977 and the nationwide higher education expansion that started in 1998, millions of rural students have enrolled in urban universities. Though Chinese rural students' educational trajectories have received extensive attention, their subjective experiences in the…

This article analyses the exploration…

Quigley, B. Allan – Adult Literacy Education, 2021
Adult literacy has been on the margins of postsecondary education for so long that many in our field assume our ongoing struggle for adequate funding and a better image is somehow "normal." It is "not normal" that some 107,000,000 adults across North America are marginalized, with many hidden in society due to low literacy.…

Lee, Justine H. – Race, Ethnicity and Education, 2021
Following months of debate in 2012, Brazilian President Rousseff signed the Quota Law establishing quotas for the percentages of Black, Brown, and indigenous public secondary school students that public universities must enroll. Guided by a social dominance theory framework, this paper examines the extent to which such a policy can challenge an…
