Phenomenology, as both a philosophy and a research method, is utilized to comprehend and interpret lived experiences. Researchers frequently employ phenomenological methodologies to discern the essence, or core meaning, of shared experiences associated with specific phenomena. This case study delineates the advantages and challenges of using this…

This case study examines how to achieve trustworthiness and authenticity in qualitative research, specifically using interpretative phenomenological design. Focused on a doctoral study involving six teacher educators in Ethiopia, it outlines key strategies for maintaining credibility, including triangulating data sources, conducting member checks,…

This case study investigates the implementation of place-based research to understand human-environment interactions, utilizing a sequential mixed-method design. Based on original research conducted in natural settings, the study combines survey data and walk-and-talk interviews to capture the breadth and depth of participants' experiences. Key…

Flipped classrooms (FCs) in K-12 schools are growing in popularity. However, previous studies have reported inconsistent findings on the effects of FCs, and the conditions under which FCs are effective remain unclear. This three-level meta-analysis synthesized the effects of FCs versus traditional classrooms (TCs) on various learning domains among…

This systematic review captures research on doctoral students' perspectives of supervision. The aim was to capture research on aspects of importance to enhance professional development for supervisors in a global perspective, as well as describe the characteristics of the body of research. Five aspects of supervisors' competences, which have…

In this article, we discuss the learning processes of our feminist fiction-based research, which makes visible the often forgotten and essentialized stories of Toronto-based women World War II workers. We describe this gendered war work through the lenses of intersectional feminism and feminist antimilitarism. We detail the power of fiction-based…

Statistics for psychology is a challenging aspect of undergraduate psychology courses but poorly understood in experiential terms. Accordingly, we drew on Brookfield's 'four lenses for critical reflection' to acquire insights from first year psychology undergraduate free text survey responses (learner lens), and psychology educator survey free…

In this paper, I elaborate a realist post-disciplinary methodology. Its starting point are disciplines. Some features of disciplines are well understood. But the implications of their irreducibility to mechanical procedure is rarely acknowledged. Building on this observation this paper proceeds through investigating transdisciplinary…

Methodologists serve a critical role in the research enterprise. It is our contention that there is an imbalance between the need for methodologists and the needs of methodologists. Providing methodological support to substantive research and methodological reviews are critical service areas that strengthen the entire research enterprise.…

This article reports on a study that followed up on an initial interdisciplinary project and focused specifically on the experiences of researchers involved in practice-based interdisciplinary research. We share an approach to research evaluation that focuses on the experiences of those conducting the research rather than the outputs. The study…

Quantitative methods have a long historical entanglement with oppressive ideologies, including eugenics, white supremacism, and anti-LGBTQ+ ideology. Increasingly, scholars have made attempts at rectifying quantitative methods by bringing them into conversation with critical theoretical frameworks. One such example is QuantCrit, which attempts to…

Assessing student achievement over multiple years is complicated by students' memberships in shifting upper-level nesting structures. These structures are manifested in (1) annual matriculation to different classrooms and (2) mobility between schools. Failure to model these shifting upper-level nesting structures may bias the inferences…

Single-case comparative studies could help identify efficient instructional procedures for individuals with disabilities. However, previous literature reported inconsistent efficiency results if multiple comparisons were conducted, indicating that within-participant replication was uncommon. In this review, we examined single-case comparative…

This study used scoping review as an approach to examine and determine the extent of studies undertaken in civic engagement roles of libraries and librarians in times of rapid growth of information disorders in the social media environment. The research identified concepts, and methods by providing a systematic examination of academic and…

Inspired by Karen Barad's agential realism and Donna Haraway's use of the Chthulucene, our paper profoundly troubles and unsettles the humanist subject that has been the cause of so much trouble. Re-turning to a government primary school in Cape Town as the "research site," we adopt temporal and spatial diffraction as a postqualitative…
