The intersectionality framework allows for the combination of formerly additive individual characteristics into intersectional profiles of employees in order to prioritize and direct further education investments. A k-medoid technique creates these profiles from the large-scale sample of the German National Educational Panel Study. A specific…

Using Jackson and Mazzei's thinking with theory, this paper centers the stories of three researchers who practiced critical self-reflection while engaging in secondary analysis of data from The Pedagogy of Student Success Project, a study intended to learn about graduate students' evolving conceptualizations of student success. In particular, the…

This article draws on a research project about the transition from PhD student to academic (British Academy-Leverhulme research grant, 2020-2022). Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 26 recent PhD graduates and six PhD supervisors. Transcripts were subjected to a thematic analysis. On a theoretical level, the article is informed by…

In this article, we provide an overview of the overturning of Roe v. Wade and consider its implications for communication classrooms in higher education. We assert that we as communication educators have a moral imperative to consider the role of intersectionality and reproductive justice in our teaching philosophies and implementation, and to do…

The incidence of app-based gig work is expanding rapidly in developed global north countries. Many app-based gig workers are migrants from developing global south countries searching for a better life in their resettlement countries. App-based gig work, however, is insecure, irregular and potentially precarious. Access to decent work is vital for…

Using Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems Theory (BEST) and intersectionality, this mixed methods study explored the complex experiences of Black men who face racial and gender-based challenges in a racially systemic employment arena, particularly those with a prior history of incarceration (PHI). The researcher interviewed Black men with PHI…

Grasping mathematical objects as related to processes is often considered critical for mathematics understanding. Yet, the ontology of mathematical objects remains under debate. In this paper, we theoretically oppose internalist approaches that claim mental entities as the endpoints of process-object transitions and externalist approaches that…

There is growing concern about the pervasive underrepresentation of qualified Black women superintendents, despite women significantly outnumbering men in public education. This study sought to shed light on the lived experiences of Black women superintendents in North Carolina. The purpose of this basic interpretive qualitative study was to gain…

Purpose: The purpose of this article is to untangle the influence of Linda Tuhiwai Smith's "Decolonizing Methodologies" on botanical gardens, particularly in the context of commemorating 25 years since its publication. By examining the intersections between decolonial theory and botanical practices, this article seeks to elucidate the…

The fourth wave of feminism in Pakistan represents a significant departure from earlier movements, evolving into an intersectional force with widespread participation from younger women. Recent scholarship notes this shift, highlighting how activists are not only demanding equal rights but also critiquing the private/public dichotomy by centreing…

In higher education and science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), interlocking oppressions can lead to inequitable environments for those who hold marginalized identities. Instructors can play key roles in either exacerbating or mitigating these inequities through their pedagogical approaches and choice of curricular material.…

Considering art and its educative potentials as a living experiment with the body's elemental constitution and modes of organisation, this article engages "water," "earth," "air," and "fire" as milieus through which a body learns to sense, move, and act in the world differently. This leads to a series of…

This research delves into the critical and often underexplored nexus of race and elementary reading instruction and assessment, with a focus on teacher discourse. While the significance of addressing racial equity in education is widely acknowledged, the ways elementary teachers engage in discussions about race within the context of reading…

This article examines the construction of femininity and sexuality, specifically as trans* intersect with race/ethnicity, in sport. The third author (S.F.'s) lived experiences as a Hong Kong Chinese gender-fluid bodybuilder who competes in international women's bodybuilding contests serve as an impetus to examine cultural norming and…

While gender-based achievement gaps have been widely explored in academic motivation research, gender-related variables such as sexual orientation and other-gender similarity radically shift understandings of these disparities. Recent research has shown that gay men have a notable bachelor's degree attainment advantage over heterosexual men while…
