The purpose of this current study was twofold: first, to identify the potential ecological risk and resiliency factors that contribute to emerging adult college students' generalized anxiety, as well as physiological and depressive responses to stress during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic; second, to compare domestic and international college…

Career and technical education (also known as vocational education) has been in existence since at least the 19th century as a means of preparing students for employment.

In this article I contribute to the scholarly discussion on how minority religions and world-views could be represented in the RE subject of Norwegian primary and lower secondary school. I will focus on Islam since Islam is the largest and -- at the same time -- most debated minority religion in Norway. The starting-point of my analysis will be…

Women and many people of color continue to be minoritized in STEM and notably in physics. We conducted two studies demonstrating that exposure to counternarratives about "who does physics" and "why one does physics" significantly increases high school students--especially women's--physics-related career intentions. These…

There is limited research into older teachers (veterans), especially those who remain enthusiastic and committed to teaching. Still less is known about the role of social support from colleagues inside school in helping positive veteran teachers maintain their commitment to teaching. Drawing broadly from a typology which identifies four types of…

What happens when a teaching artist ends their studies unprepared? How do theater teaching artists navigate unpreparedness in their work? Using three personal vignettes, we explore reflexivity toward our own unrehearsed moments and contextualize our experiences within teaching artist preparation literature. From learning how to 'show up' as a…

Reflective of the growing efforts to advance institutional missions and aspirations of increased internationalization, foreign-born leadership educators (FbLEs) add a global dimension to the student learning experience and the ethos of the academic departments in which they work. Leadership departments, specifically, benefit from multiculturally…

Few studies, however, take an "in situ" view on the pedagogical moves of mentors, and fewer still engage with ideologies of race and class therein. Without this, principles of pedagogy or design that build toward expansive learning for racially minoritized youth…

Despite the best intentions of many educators, scholars have theorized that systemic racism and sexism are major impediments to the academic engagement of African American males. The current study explored a potential pathway to address this issue. In a sample of 223 African American male high school students, this study examined the relationship…

Embodying James Baldwin's call to "go for broke" in the face of the current "dangerous time" and ongoing "determined resistances," this article argues for an intersectional social justice praxis for preparing and supporting teacher candidates and novice teachers to work with diverse students. We posit a sustained…

This study explores how a biology teacher from a summer science program engaged high school students of color in a three-week science unit exploring community health at the intersection of history, race, place, and power. The goal of this study is to better understand what community-driven science looks like in a science classroom when a health…
