Anita Pipere; Francesca Lorenzi – Journal of Teacher Education for Sustainability, 2024
In today's complex and unsettling global landscape, it is crucial to seek, define, and legitimize educational perspectives and research that are underpinned by philosophical paradigms that enable us to respond to unforeseen challenges and effectively address the ever-growing complexity and multiplicity of reality. The evolving nature of education…

Attia Noor – International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, 2023
Narrative inquiry is a type of qualitative research that explores human experiences through lived or told stories to understand a phenomenon. Narrative researchers collect data through spoken or written stories and life experiences of an individual (subject). The data is examined in chronological order to understand the meaning of the phenomenon…

Abramo, Joseph Michael – Philosophy of Music Education Review, 2021
In this essay, I explore the recent cultural and epistemological turns in sociological music education research. Changes in the economy--and most specifically in the modes of production aided by changes in technology--provide a frame for understanding the cultural and epistemological turns within music education research in sociology. The economy…

Lennon, Sherilyn; Barnes, Naomi; Riley, Tasha; Monk, Sue; Low-Choy, Samantha – International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education (QSE), 2020
This experimental article provides an immanent alternative to the neo-positivist outcomes-driven turn currently cannibalising the Academy. It offers a stitched together, multiphrenic creature, formed in darkness, gore and toil; a co-generative performance embodying "coming-to-know" as a process of creative co-inquiry. It writes into…

Thomas, Donna M. – Global Studies of Childhood, 2021
The 'new' sociology of childhood sees an emergence of interdisciplinary approaches to understanding self, experience and subjectivity of children. As debates frame research with children, concerned with 'ethics' and 'agency', what is meant by the 'subject' of experience is given little attention. In this article, I ask whether narratives are a…

Dennis, Jeremy – Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies in Education, 2019
In interdisciplinary education, metaphors often provide the epistemological clarity that is lacking in our definitions and theories of interdisciplinarity. The problem is that ineffective and unsubstantiated metaphors proliferate. We lack a root metaphor or shared world view of interdisciplinarity. Is it time that we move away from thinking in…

Kress, Tricia M.; Lake, Robert – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2020
In this postformal co-autoethnographic research, the authors explore the changing landscape of American research universities from their respective locations as mid-career, post-tenure critical pedagogy scholars. By using autobiographical narratives in parallel with a running discussion of rodent habits and habitats, they explore the influence of…

Roby Marlina – LEARN Journal: Language Education and Acquisition Research Network, 2024
In this article, I offer my observations of the epistemological shifts that have taken place in the TESOL discipline as a result of the inexorable forces of globalisation. Specifically, the article highlights how the multicultural, multilingual, and multimodal nature of communication in the 21st century has disrupted various assumptions on how…

Kilicoglu, Gokhan; Kilicoglu, Derya – Studies in Philosophy and Education, 2020
Metamodernism, which is used synonymous with post-postmodernism or neo-modernism, has come forward in response to postmodernism and the emerged crises, instabilities, and uncertainties in all areas of this epoch. Metamodernism is a perspective situated epistemologically "with" (post)modernism, ontologically "between"…

Somerville, Margaret; Powell, Sarah J. – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2019
This article addresses the problem of writing the posthuman in educational research. Confronted by our own failures as educational researchers within posthuman and new materialist approaches, it seeks a more radical opening to Lather and St Pierre's question: 'If we give up "human" as separate from non-human, how do we exist? … Are we…

Elonga Mboyo, Jean Pierre – Research in Educational Administration & Leadership, 2021
The dominance of Western research methodologies and epistemologies has come under intense scrutiny. However, the recognition that knowledge is produced and packaged differently cannot override its fluid, unbounded and comparative nature. That said, researchers are yet to outline the case for a decolonising comparative educational leadership…

Barnett, Ronald; Bengtsen, Søren – Education Sciences, 2017
This paper examines the relation between epistemology and higher education. We shall start by briefly examining three classical texts on the understanding of knowledge at universities, as well as noting some others, and go on to sketch a version of our own. Our argument is as follows: the world is such that the relationship between the university…

Horsthemke, Kai – European Educational Research Journal, 2019
The assumptions underlying this contribution are, first, that educational research, like research in other fields, is expected to yield knowledge. This is rather uncontroversial. It is only when it comes to the definition of knowledge, the kinds of knowledge sought and to questions as to whose knowledge counts, that the debate characteristically…

What is the future of Philosophy of education? Or as many of scholars and thinkers in this final 'future-focused' collective piece from the philosophy of education in a new key Series put it, what are the futures--plural and multiple--of the intersections of 'philosophy' and 'education?' What is 'Philosophy'; and what is 'Education', and what role…

Nakagawa, Yoshifumi; Payne, Phillip G. – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2019
The always vexed relationships between philosophy, theory, methodology, empirical work and their representations and legitimations have been thrown into chaos with the belated acknowledgement of the Anthropocene. Unsurprisingly, traditional Western thought may have been complicit, given its underlying anthropocentric assumptions and humanist…
