Purpose: A literature research conducted in education and agricultural education journals published during a period of 10 years revealed that 98% of the studies used parametric analyses. In general, model assumptions were not tested, and statistical criteria were not followed to apply the parametric approach. The objective of this paper is to…

In this paper, we use research with Indigenous Maori women to explain the research interface to bring together Indigenous and Euro-Western ways of knowing. Our research required using an Indigenous research methodology that drew on traditional cultural knowledge with embedded critical and decolonisation theories to understand this…

Due to the outbreak of COVID-19, digital learning has become the most efficient learning and teaching technique adopted across the world. The pervasiveness of Personalized and Adaptive Context-Aware Mobile Learning (PACAML) technologies is improving the academic performances of learners by providing an efficient learning platform that supports…

Identifying causal mechanisms is an essential aspect of disparities research. Rigorous investigations of mechanisms can open the black box and clarify linkages in the causal chain, indicating how effects occur. Studies of mechanisms can also illuminate novel ways to reduce inequality when intervention at the root cause of unequal outcomes is not…

Learning analytics researchers have been diligently integrating trace data to study Self-Regulated Learning (SRL). Compared to traditionally used survey data, trace data, such as log or clickstream data designed and interpreted to understand a certain SRL construct, are considered to be more effective in capturing dynamic SRL as fine-grained…

We need a critical mathematics. Our ability to enact social change through teaching mathematics and through critical research in mathematics education is severely limited by the canon of mathematical knowledge and the ideology that declares mathematical knowledge as certain. In this dissertation I extend Carspecken's critical action theory to…

In times of global emergencies and shifting social priorities worldwide, literacy researchers must recognize how ethnographic methods--foregrounded by New Literacy Studies researchers--may be rendered temporarily and persistently inaccessible. These conditions force us to work other-wise, employing new materialism to contemplate methodologies of…

Participatory research methods in education, such as action research, have been around for some time. Recently, not only researchers but also research policy makers have highlighted the importance of participation between society and research. Citizen science, science with and for society, and practice-based educational research are examples of…

The aim of this study is to compare the master's (MA) theses in Türkiye (TR) and Finland (FIN) published between 2015-2019. A total of 765 theses were analysed in terms of year, discipline, methodological approach, research method, didactic foci, data collection tool, target group, and sample size. The results showed that FIN theses grounded on…

Despite growing movements, queer youth find themselves in the spotlight of intense backlash. While anti-queer activism becomes increasingly visible, queer youth activists engage in worldmaking practices through their educational activism. This narrative literature review examines how scholarly literature discusses education and research as a…

Virtual Reality (VR) is gradually integrating into classroom teaching, emerging as a new trend in educational development in the era of artificial intelligence. Desktop virtual reality stands out due to its lower cost and greater convenience. To elucidate the effectiveness of desktop virtual reality in learning, this paper employs a meta-analysis…

Research indicates that evidence-based approaches are most effective in improving educational outcomes for children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). However, it is not clear how educators identify and integrate research evidence to guide their intervention approaches, and the extent to which school context…

This study examines the critical role of technological innovations in higher education, specifically addressing their contribution towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) between 2020 and 2024. Employing a combined methodology of bibliometric analysis and systematic literature review, the research analyzes trends, methodologies,…

In this second column regarding research approaches, we continue our discussion of qualitative and quantitative research focusing on the specializations of developmental education, learning assistance, and student success. Whereas the previous column discussed mixed methods as an underutilized method, similarly, design research has the potential…
