Drawing on Bourdieu's theory of social reproduction, the article examines whether international student mobility (ISM) is still a distinctive educational strategy of upper-milieu students in the 21st century. As a result of the Bologna process, ISM has become widespread in Europe. Does this also mean that international mobility loses its…

Ilanit Pinto-Dror; Avihu Shoshana – Research Papers in Education, 2025
Based on 20 semi-structured interviews with high school students in elite schools in Israel, this article examines two key research questions: How do students in elite high schools define and experience their identity?

Maurizio Toscano; Steven A. Stolz – British Journal of Educational Studies, 2025
We explore social justice advocacy and education from the vantage point of elite theory as articulated in the works of Gaetano Mosca and Vilfredo Pareto. Elite theory is applied here to re-appraise the explicit and implicit educational means and ends inspired by contemporary social justice along three inter-related dimensions: the place of…

In this chapter we provide an overview of campus ecology and ecological systems theory as applied to the study of higher education, most often to research on college students. We describe Bronfenbrenner's developmental ecological model and its application of it to the study of college students. We then discuss affordances and limitations of this…

Lensmire, Timothy J. – International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education (QSE), 2023
In this essay, I draw on two black theorists of whiteness--W.E.B. Du Bois and the Reverend Thandeka--to examine how white supremacy and white racial identities emerge from and are fortified in the relations of "white people to other white people." I use stories told by two white people from a rural, white farming community in…

Blackshear, Tara B. – Strategies: A Journal for Physical and Sport Educators, 2022
The purpose of this article is to put racism on the health and physical education (HPE) agenda with accountability measures using a critical whiteness lens. For HPE professionals, a critical whiteness lens involves examining beliefs that white cultural norms in HPE are conventional and benefit those who do not identify as white or with white…

Smalling, Susan E. – Teaching in Higher Education, 2022
There are significant inherent challenges in teaching students about structural racism resulting from white supremacist systems but overcoming these challenges leads to better outcomes. The goal may be to create a level of awareness that spurs action from the micro- to macro level. However, the means may result in further marginalizing students of…

Khanh Q. Tran; S. Selcen Guzey – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2024
Science teachers and educators seek to promote equity and inclusion within their classrooms. Yet, many do not examine how their roles could reproduce oppression that continues to exclude certain groups of students. Centering on how oppression interacts with science teaching and learning, this naturalistic study observed Ms. William and her…

Background: Large introductory lecture courses are frequently post-secondary students' first formal interaction with science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. Grade outcomes in these courses are often disparate across student populations, which, in turn, has implications for student retention. This study positions such…

Taya Wall; Susan T. Gardner – Analytic Teaching and Philosophical Praxis, 2024
For much of human history, inequity was taken as a fact of life. However, as reflection on the human condition became more prominent, arguments that some forms of inequity can be ameliorated began to emerge. In this paper, the authors note that "inequity aversion" is a built-in human trait, and they reflect on the fact that, nonetheless,…

Amy Governale – Teaching of Psychology, 2024
Introduction: Poverty is a central concept in many fields of psychology, yet poorly designed activities regarding wealth inequality may backfire or cause students to become defensive. Statement of the Problem: Many students hold misperceptions about class mobility and lack an understanding of how systemic barriers perpetuate poverty across the…

Underpinned by Romantic wilderness ideals and American settler colonialism, recurring themes of "conquest culture" in outdoor adventure--social privilege, individualism, and exploitation-- are carried out on social media. This study explores how an emerging topic, microadventures, may reinforce or resist these dominant discourses in…

Adam Poole – Educational Review, 2024
Although international school teachers have always been hired on short-term contracts (usually from two to three years in duration), there has been relatively little research examining this aspect of international schooling. Whilst short-term contracts may appear to be a positive feature of international schooling, particularly for younger…

Karen Lillie – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2024
Elite schools, long tasked with creating a future national elite, often now find themselves competing in a global education market. This article explores how one such school, in Switzerland, articulates with the global imaginary of its local geography -- in particular, with images of luxury tourism and safety -- to appeal to a globally wealthy…
