Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs) have a great potential to effectively transform teaching and learning. As more efforts have been put on designing and developing ITSs and integrating them within learning and instruction, mixed types of results about the effectiveness of ITS have been reported. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate how ITSs…

The relationship Terry and I developed as colleagues and friends illustrates elements of the legacy she leaves. Our overlapping research interests stimulated conversations about synergies and differences between our theoretical perspectives. Depending on the situation and purpose, these interactions possessed different characteristics. Terry…

This study aims to examine the methodological trends and findings in studies on robotic coding in science education published between 2015-2022 comprehensively and holistically. For this purpose, the articles related to the subject were systematically reviewed. In addition, web of Science and SCOPUS databases were scanned for keywords related to…

In this theoretical paper, I review the history of research in educational psychology that inspired Shulman's notion of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) and I critically examine interpretations of PCK reflected in prominent theoretical frameworks for mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT).

This paper unpacks the assumptions underpinning England's new Core Content Framework (CCF) in respect of the educational research required for teacher expertise, with particular attention to the sources referenced in the final part of the CCF and claims that these constitute the 'best available educational research'. Drawing on sociological…

The field of geographic information systems (GIS) has been exclusively associated with positivist epistemological perspectives and quantitative research methods. In a deliberate effort to move away from false notions of objectivity and neutrality, this article proposes the Chicana/Latina feminist GIS methodology of Platicando y Mapeando. By…

While extensive understanding of headship has emerged over the last half-century, the notion of executive headship remains under-explored.

In this issue, the Harvard Educational Review reprints Giroux's "Theories of Reproduction and Resistance in the New Sociology of Education: A Critical Analysis," which this journal first published in 1983. The construct of resistance in educational spaces continues to be invoked by researchers and the media alike, with different degrees…

Propensity score matching and weighting methods are often used in observational effectiveness studies to reduce imbalance between treated and untreated groups on a set of potential confounders. However, much of the prior methodological literature on matching and weighting has yet to examine performance for scenarios with a majority of treated…

University teachers funded to engage in educational development projects have been found to become increasingly engaged in the scholarship of teaching and learning. However, research also points to obstacles such as departmental culture, lack of support from management, and unhelpful administrative processes. In this study, I interview university…
