Several scholars argue for a closer association between research and teaching in higher education, but it is unclear how research-based teaching can be actualized. Action research (AR) offers designs that position students as actors of the research processes, for example by doing research themselves or co-researching. Therefore, AR and…

The purpose of this paper is to explore an integrative approach to academic ethics research. Academic ethics is known as professional commitment towards ethical decision-making in education, research, and innovation. It has been practised in multiple forms, including academic integrity and research ethics within a larger educational and research…

Systematic reviews have been gaining attention as a research methodology and are among the most frequently cited sources in educational sciences. However, best practices for conducting systematic reviews in educational sciences are still evolving. We conducted N = 12 qualitative interviews to learn from experienced systematic review researchers…

Research has suggested that teacher educators' profession and the process of identity formation are poorly understood. Moreover, attempts to clarify the terminology are rare. While research has addressed teacher educators' professional identities holistically, discussion on teacher educators' teacher identities is very rare, even though these…

This article explores societal impact of humanities doctoral research. Through an empirical inquiry based in Denmark, we analyse how current doctoral researchers conceptualize societal impact and how they articulate potential contributions to society. For theoretical framing, we employ a double-winged perspective combining concepts from the work…

Bayesian methods offer many advantages when applied to psychological research, yet they may seem esoteric to researchers who are accustomed to traditional methods. This paper aims to lower the barrier of entry for developmental psychologists who are interested in using Bayesian methods. We provide worked examples of how to analyze common study…

Contribution: Our work focuses on building research capacity in engineering education research (EER). We operationalize enculturation of novice researchers into the EER community by studying temporal changes in the social networks of engineering faculty participating in a mentorship-based training grant. Background: The U.S. National Science…

Research capability is one of the essential capabilities of scholars for effectively conducting their work. Yet current research lacks a structured exploration and measurement scale for Chinese scholars on this matter. In the Chinese research context, this study conducted two questionnaires based on the Research Self-Efficacy Scale (RSES) among…

Decolonial research helps us move away from extractive research methodologies that maintain the "wounded subject position" and legitimize oppressive practices. Additionally, decolonial research challenges dominant Eurocentric paradigms that have historically shaped the counseling profession. Thus, we offer this article to demonstrate an…

This paper offers an argument as to why a focus on 'What is educational?' matters so much in reconstructing education. Living Educational Theory Research is presented as an approach that enables professional, educational-practitioners to contribute to reconstructing education locally and globally. The research is focused on the generation and…

This study investigates the potential of community-based organizations (CBOs) to enhance knowledge mobilization (KMb) through reciprocal and empowering collaborations with academic researchers. Using a constructivist qualitative methodology, the research explored how CBOs perceive and experience KMb relationships and identified challenges in…

This article describes and reflects on the first six meetings of a newly established Autistic community council, founded to steer a participatory, longitudinal qualitative study investigating the reproductive health of Autistic people with wombs. The two key aims of these initial six meetings -- involving four Autistic community leader members and…

This paper is based on a study conducted ten years ago at one university in Japan aiming at collaborative development through reflection among a teacher educator, two in-service teachers, and four pre-service graduate students. Collaborative reflection involved methods, such as the graduate students' observation of the in-service teachers' English…

This paper addresses the desideratum identified by Törner (2018), that researchers' beliefs are rarely addressed in the research literature dealing with beliefs. For this purpose, firstly a suitable theoretical framework is outlined that links the concept of belief with the research perspectives of researchers. Secondly, examples are given of how…

Educational researchers often need to construct precise and reliable measurement scales of complex and varied representations such as participants' written work, videoed lesson segments and policy documents. Developing such scales using can be resource-intensive and time-consuming, and the outcomes are not always reliable. Here we present…
