The research aims to prove the economic conditionality of the process of large-scale introduction of distance education in the context of global digital transformation by the economic interests of private subjects of socio-economic relations. Reaching the terminal stage of the crisis of the liberal socio-economic system leads to the need to…

In this essay, we consider recent narratives in the science of brain development under poverty in relation to the older idea of the culture of poverty. We argue that in theorizing poor parenting and deficient linguistic stimulation as the primary pathways of influence through which poverty exerts its damaging effects on the brain, brain science…

This text aims to rethink educational activity inspired by the thought of the philosopher Ignacio Ellacuría, in what we have synthesised as a "pedagogy of poverty." This should be understood as a pedagogy that, in the neoliberal context of Western societies, takes poverty as its "motor"--its efficient cause--and as its…

The fact that poverty has largely been conceptualised from a narrow financial perspective in South African higher education may have contributed to its perpetuation among students. There is limited research on the multidimensionality of poverty, particularly its wide-ranging effect on students in universities. Using the capabilities approach, this…

In this thought-provoking book, renowned educator and learning expert Eric Jensen takes his most personal, profound look yet at how poverty and inequity hurt students and their chances for success in life--and how teachers across all grade levels and subject areas can infuse equity into every aspect of their practice. Drawing from a broad survey…

Literature is saturated with research identifying the types and causes of relationships between student achievement and poverty. Less well documented is the magnitude of those relationships and combined impacts of poverty and excessive absenteeism on student achievement. While many studies describe the relationships between these variables, few…

What can the federal government do to help ensure that the public schools attended by children living in poverty have enough resources to serve their students? In this brief, we describe existing federal efforts to support education spending in high-poverty districts, discuss their limitations, and suggest alternative approaches for federal…

Background: Research suggests that many educators hold inaccurate or incomplete perceptions of poverty leading to stereotyping of students living in poverty. It is important for future teachers to understand more about the complexities of poverty so they can bridge gaps between misconceptions and understanding for their students, families, and…

The present study investigated the relationship between child poverty and educational achievement among elementary (n=1,217) and middle school students (n=988) in South Korea using secondary data collected over a 12-year period (from 2006 to 2018) by the Korean Welfare Panel Study. This study used panel data to compare the impact of poverty on…

U.S. public schools are increasingly segregated by income, resulting in substantial educational inequality among U.S. schoolchildren. We conducted a nationally representative survey to explore the relationship between parental beliefs about and preferences regarding school segregation. Using experimental manipulation, we tested if learning about…

Alternative poverty measures have been proposed in response to the emerging insufficiencies of the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) eligibility data. The analysis presented here involves seven poverty measures. Using outcome measures as a yardstick, we can assess how poverty measures explain these outcomes and note variations between…

Prior theoretical and empirical research has highlighted links between positive parenting and the socioeconomic characteristics of the family's neighborhood, but has yet to illuminate the etiologic origins of this association. One possibility is that the various predictors of parenting outlined by Belsky (1984; e.g., characteristics of the child,…

The article is devoted to the study of the features of the verbalization of the concept of "wealth" and "poverty" in Kazakh, Chinese, and English. The relevance of the study lies in the fact that by revealing the semantic load of these concepts, the main economic categories that are important for every person, it is possible to…

There has been an increasing number of students being referred to mental health services due to behavioral problems they exhibit at school. Behavioral and social concerns impede academic success for the individual child as well as their classroom peers. Many factors can contribute to challenging behaviors in early childhood students within rural…
