Patricia Paugh; Lara J. Handsfield; Deborah MacPhee – Journal of Literacy Research, 2025
Debates about how to teach reading have continuingly aligned with political agendas in the United States.

Moore, Randy – American Biology Teacher, 2020
Just before his death in 1970, John Scopes claimed that his famous trial "had no other effect upon my family" than his sister Lela losing her teaching job in Paducah, Kentucky. He was wrong. My interviews with John Scopes's family members and descendants -- most of whom have never talked about their famous relative until now -- reveal…

Morrison, Hugh – Paedagogica Historica: International Journal of the History of Education, 2011
