Thompson, Christiane – Studies in Philosophy and Education, 2011
What is the task of educational theory or philosophy if it is not merely conceived as specification of philosophical doctrines in the realm of education?

Fournillier, Janice B. – Qualitative Inquiry, 2011
Having assumed the role of academic tourist/midnight robber from the Caribbean island of Trinidad and Tobago, I discover that I have never fully dealt with the emotional aspect of using academic discourses that came out of a Eurocentric frame.

Inoue, Noriyuki – Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, 2011
One danger of integrating inquiry-based problem-solving activities into mathematics lessons is that different strategies could be accepted without in-depth discussions on the cogency and efficiency of the strategies. To overcome this issue, Japanese teachers typically go through a series of lesson-study-based teacher learning sessions and learn…
