This literature review examines the use of photography in educational research and in education, to learn how photography could be better used in teaching and learning mathematics and mathematics education research. The authors analyzed 125 publications published between 1975 and 2023 to identify different research methods and teaching solutions…

Silos are an undeniable and unavoidable reality of knowledge production, particularly within academia. For those who choose to navigate between disciplinary boundaries, as opposed to within them, it is not uncommon to find similar concepts developing in parallel in two or more completely different fields of study. These silos tend to be not just…

This article explores the integration of "synthography" in the context of a class in the Degree in Photography, as a strategy to explore artistic and professional practices in the digital transformation era, problematizing the pedagogical implications of using artificial intelligence (AI) in creative disciplines. The study revolves…

In this article, we explore the dynamic interplay of youth agency, spatial justice, and literacy practices across community spaces through micro-analysis of photographs and interviews of children and youth. Through a lens of spatial reclamation, the study investigates how children and youth disrupt adult-designed spaces to restory and reclaim…

Based on an ethnographic study in a Finnish primary school, we explored lingering as both a pedagogical approach and a methodological concept for multispecies education research and practice. Through this conceptual thinking, we "re-turned" to the multiplicities that unfolded from noticing rhythms, enterings and different lifeworlds to…

In Western industrialised contexts, ecological problems such as climate change are sensed and come largely to be known through media representations. In this article, we consider "aesthetic practices" as a concept for understanding the ways in which the visual sensible world relating to climate change is continuously distributed.…

This descriptive report explores the implementation of the use of plastinated specimens in a Doctor of Physical Therapy human anatomy curriculum as an alternative to traditional body donor dissection. Plastination, a preservation technique developed in the 1970s, creates durable and flexible specimens that retain detailed anatomical features. The…

This study examined how studying Geography and using personal landscape photography impact university-level Physical Geography students' ecological perspectives. A survey, employing the New Environmental Paradigm (NEP), was conducted on 77 History undergraduates at the semester's start and end. The results showed a significant shift toward more…

The rapid rise of AI use is creating some very serious legal and ethical issues such as bias, discrimination, inequity, privacy violations, and--as creators everywhere fear--theft of protected intellectual property. Because AI platforms "learn" by scraping training materials available online or what is provided to them through their…

PhotoVoice invites students to capture photos of concerning issues, elaborate on them in writing, and share the photos and written accounts with the community, hoping for change. Inspired by critical pedagogy, it challenges teaching English as a set of linguistic skills/standards detached from students' life challenges. As a teacher-educator and…

In recent years, the field of geography in higher education has increasingly embraced the integration of visual and audio-visual methods as it enables enhanced understanding, multimodal learning, and geospatial literacy. Therefore, there is ample opportunity to incorporate new techniques from various disciplines to improve modern education for…

Kolb Learning Cycle Theory is employed in this study as a pedagogical framework to show how combining economics with photography can foster experiential learning. The author draws on her personal experience of teaching a course titled "Economic Issues through a Photographer's Lens" to undergraduate students in an urban setting. She…

This paper presents a practice-based enquiry exploring how photovoice methods can be adapted to visualise caring behaviours in multi-sited contexts, within an environment and peace education context. Photovoice methods typically have an exclusively single-sited focus that can neglect opportunities for empathy and cross-cultural engagement that…

The purpose of this article is to introduce a methodology for analyzing the complex configurations emerging in students' speech and drawing activities, having consequences for how and what students learn and make meaning of in science. Accordingly, we launch a methodology to unfold the multidimensional communication as to deepen the analysis of…

The authors develop, use, and evaluate a spherical video-based virtual reality (SVVR) app for teaching operations management. The app contains a 360-degree photo- realistic copy of real factory environments with blended information and gamified exercises. To solve a learning assignment, students virtually immerse themselves in the factory using…
