Penciling, a technique used to anonymize images for both human and machine vision, offers an opportunity to reduce technical traceability and retain visual data for online and social media research contexts. Drawing on methods for creating composite narrative and visual accounts to preserve participant anonymity, penciling enables researchers to…

The literature on entrepreneurial universities has grown exponentially over the past three decades. Concomitantly, the meanings attached to the terminology of entrepreneurial universities has proliferated, creating confusion amongst users. To fill this gap, an inductive analysis of entrepreneurial university conceptualisations from the term's…

In the interdisciplinary field of education, critical race theory (CRT) is the predominant framework for studying racism. However, some have argued CRT lacks a racial theory and that CRT-education scholarship should examine how education "racializes" (i.e. contributes to making racialized categories). In this theoretical article, I…

Background: Parents of children who stutter (CWS) are often uncertain, hesitant and uncomfortable to communicate openly with their CWS and other people on the topic of the stutter and disclosing the stutter to the child and/or other people. Aims: To map and understand the dynamics involved when parents communicate with their CWS and other people…

We discuss a new construct called Industry 5.0, which has infiltrated the education sector, enabling us to explore Education 5.0. This concept is based on the use of advanced technologies that enable it to address global issues in contemporary society, many of which are related to sustainability. In line with the above, the aim of this research…

Writing a topic sentence is difficult, as a variety of linguistic knowledge is required to represent the main idea of the whole paragraph. This study applies the mechanism of A-movement in generative syntax to observe syntactic structures, semantic denotations and pragmatic aspects of topic sentences in applied linguistics research articles. The…

In this paper, we propose a method for constructing an occupation-based socioeconomic index that can easily incorporate changes in occupational structure. The resulting index is the occupational percentile rank for a given cohort, based on contemporaneous information pertaining to educational composition and the number of workers at the occupation…

Reflexivity has become a key concept in RE. It plays a vital role in the interpretive approach and the broader contexts of hermeneutics, anthropology, and research methodology. Moreover, reflexivity is closely related to other terms like self-awareness and self-reflection. How can we conceptualise reflexivity and these related concepts? What are…

Background: The peer review process plays a vital role in the advancement of engineering educational research because it is largely through this process that the field determines which knowledge claims are considered valid. Unfortunately, peer review processes may reinforce inequities when peer reviewers, as readers, are not reflective about the…

Research in children's literature has undergone significant shifts over the past forty years that affect the field's current positioning, especially for those who engage in this research. The invitation to present a keynote at the Children's Literature Assembly's online conference of research in children's literature provided the author an…

This paper explores reparative approaches to histories of schooling. We reflect on an ongoing research project that is attempting to construct a "people's history of schooling" in Bristol, England. The research aims to expand understandings of past and present conditions of racial and class injustices in education and how we are all…

While much has been written about the methods that should inform narrative and systematic reviews, far less consideration has been given to their purpose. While the narrative review is a common text type in higher education research, relatively little is known about how these reviews seek to make a novel contribution. Reviews can play a role in…

The 2023 AAAE Values document identifies nine broad areas to focus research and practice to address complex agricultural, food, and natural resources challenges. To do this good work, we need paradigms, frameworks, and methodologies to guide our thinking, scholarship, and practice. Systems-oriented paradigms enable us to solve problems…

Pseudoskepticism, which typically is portraying someone's work as despicable with scientifically unsound polemics, is a modern day threat to the traditional standard of discussion in science and popular science. This opinion article gives seven tell-tale signs by which pseudoskepticism can be recognized.

Data-based decision-making (DBDM) is an important, evidence-based framework that schools and teachers can utilize to elicit positive student outcomes. However, much of the research on DBDM has occurred at the elementary level. Crone and colleagues wrote a compelling article on how 25 middle school teams were functioning in terms of DBDM essentials…
