We conducted a scoping review on the consecutive controlled case series (CCCS) methodology (Hagopian, 2020). The CCCS is an approach to studying functional relations across a series of consecutive cases that share common features. We identified and reviewed 76 studies that used CCCS methodology. Most of these (a) were retrospective CCCS studies…

In this article, we argue for increased participant choice in early years research and beyond. Drawing on relevant literature and our own empirical work, we demonstrate that giving participants more choice leads to richer data and more robust findings. We also show that more choice for participants is closely aligned with co-creation and…

This paper presents a scoping review of relevant literature to characterise research on education in prisons. After reviewing 353 peer-reviewed articles spanning 10 years of research, we conclude that research on education in prisons in global research databases (i) is dominated by qualitative studies, (ii) is primarily focused on the…

As two Remida Reggio-inspired early childhood teacher educators, we (re)consider our research embedded in longtime writings and workshops together. (Re)cycling our public/visible thinking with Remida-inspired reuse materials' educational ecologies, we (re)write together here to find new ways of envisioning our shared identities as related to a…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is currently leading an industrial revolution in most aspects of human life, and education is no exception. With the increasing ratio of students to faculty, AI could be an extremely beneficial tool for individual mentoring; for example, for cases of dropout and for student retention.

It explores the methodological rigor of synthesizing qualitative and quantitative research findings to evaluate educational pedagogies. Central to this case study…

Many qualitative researchers have incorporated poetry in qualitative research to analyze data and present findings. Found poetry, poetic transcription, and data poems are well-known poetic methods in qualitative data analysis that scholars have adopted to analyze data and artistically represent findings. The research project that this case is…
