This book considers the generative tension between the materiality and virtuality of walking methodologies in a/r/tography and arts-based educational research. It explores the materiality of practice--manifestations, manipulations, residues, and traces of both real and imagined experiences and events. Authors present artistic representations,…

Global science is more networked and connected than ever before. The rise of research collaborations occurs not only in the established Euro-American science systems that hold 'central' nodes in the globally networked science, but also in other parts of the world as science systems pluralise and multipolarise. Yet, research collaborations between…

This paper will explore the dichotomy of direction and stimulus through a reflection on arts-based methods used in a research study into post-industrial communities in South Wales and consider whether in participatory processes, a catalyst for artistic creativity could become construed as researcher-led control over the activities. Through an…

Evaluators widely agree that the involvement of key actors is a central aspect of quality practice. However, a scoping review of to what extent and how youth are included has not been explored. This is an important omission because many evaluations are done on programs that directly serve youth. We examined 159 evaluation reports in a publicly…

Undergraduate research is a widely recognized, high-impact educational practice that offers student researchers and their mentors unique opportunities to engage in shared, discipline-based intellectual inquiry. For undergraduate research in writing studies and rhetoric to flourish at two- and four-year institutions, whether it is embedded in…

As wider social and societal changes have led to moves towards equality as a response to a better understanding of inequalities, ethical considerations in research are now more consciously focussed on power dynamics. As a consequence, participatory research methods have gained traction. Simultaneously, artistic and creative methods are used within…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the frontier, science, and public engagement of educational science research. This paper conducted a systematic literature review of 101 educational science research articles published in "Nature" and "Science" in 1982-2021 based on the Web of Science database and analyzed the…

In many jurisdictions, teacher quality is seen as key to system improvement. One approach to improving teacher quality is to include research activities in teacher preparation. Yet, little is known about how conducting research might improve teacher quality. Research literacy, defined as both knowing enough about research to understand and…

In an era of increasingly complex educational challenges, effective solutions necessitate multidisciplinary teamwork. The goal of this systematic literature review (SLR) was to identify strategies for encouraging cross-disciplinary collaborations in educational research in order to enhance its societal relevance and transformative impact. The…

The choice to conduct research projects done with or by children is a political one. It reflects a standpoint that appreciates children's position as agentic beings and acknowledges their expertise. There are complex questions for academics and practitioners engaged in such research projects. This paper reports on a systematic review of…

This article highlights teaching and learning in reconstructive research supported by artificial intelligence (AI) and machine interpretation in particular. The focus is whether the traditional teaching of methodological competence through research workshops can be supplemented with artificial intelligence (natural language processing, NLP)…

Fifty percent of social science and education doctoral students in the United States fail to complete their programs. Within this context, studies addressing research methods pedagogy and qualitative methods in particular, continue to be limited. Even more limited are accounts of experiences in which students learn through individually chosen…

Higher education institutions are moving towards highlighting the importance of research. According to the Department of Higher Education and Training in South Africa, the status of higher education institutions will be determined by the extent to which they are engaged in research and research-related activities. Higher education institutions…

This article describes how disciplinary literacy practices were enacted among youth within the context of Youth Built Change, a science based program incorporating principles of Youth Participatory Action Research (YPAR). Highlighting two YPAR projects, one conducted in a predominantly Black and Latino/a suburban school and one conducted in a…

Grounded in Quantitative Critical Race Theory (QuantCrit), this study utilizes Critical Content Analysis to examine how educational sessions at the Association for Institutional Research's annual conference, AIR Forum, have engaged issues of race and racism. On average, race was mentioned in just 6.2% of AIR Forum sessions annually, and only three…
