Zheng, Lei – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2021
The STEM crisis discourse enacts a crisis sensitivity that governs the way of thinking and feeling about change in relation to techno-science.

Suto, Irenka; Ireland, Jo – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2021

Pinner, Richard S.; Sampson, Richard J. – TESOL Quarterly: A Journal for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages and of Standard English as a Second Dialect, 2021
Humanizing complexity research is already strongly advocated by much of the literature on complexity (Kramsch, 2011; Larsen-Freeman, 2011; Sampson, 2016) and yet there is a recent trend towards a potentially alienating approach, which could confound readers, utilising a dense vocabulary and overly technical methods. We advocate a more practical…

Emmerich, Marcus – European Educational Research Journal, 2021
Niklas Luhmann's late concept of inclusion/exclusion in world society compensates for the lack of a systems theory of social differentiation, but ultimately remains incomplete. Moreover, it is remarkable that Luhmann apparently never linked the inclusion/exclusion concept to his late theory of the education system. The following considerations…

Ali, Tahir; Buergelt, Petra T.; Maypilama, Elaine Lawurrpa; Paton, Douglas; Smith, James A.; Jehan, Noor – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2022
Historically, non-Indigenous researchers have contributed to colonisation by research based on Western positivistic philosophical frameworks. This approach led to disembodying knowledge from Indigenous people's histories, worldviews, and cultural and social practices, thus perpetuating a deficit-based discourse which situates the responsibility of…
