In the early 1980s, the "theory of didactic situations" put the analysis of mathematical activity at the core of the didactic analysis, thus initiating a new research programme in mathematics education: the "epistemological programme." This paper describes and interprets some of the contributions of the "anthropological…

The primary purpose of this research was to examine institutional characteristics of four-year, public colleges and universities that closed off-site locations between 2012 and 2019 through the lens of resource dependence theory. As institutions attempt to maximize their available resources and make the best use of existing resources, there will…

We aim to examine similarities and differences in the developmental patterns of habitual (HRM) and situational reading motivation (SRM). We investigated the correlated change of SRM and two aspects of HRM: habitual reading enjoyment and habitual reading for interest. The sample comprised N = 1508 students with four waves of data collections spaced…

Design thinking has emerged as a method for teacher professional learning and development (PLD). Research commonly focusses on PLD responses to specific priorities, particularly STEM, rather than broader applications. This scoping review examines how and why design thinking is used in PLD and discusses the implications for using design thinking as…

Multi-lab projects are large scale collaborations between participating data collection sites that gather empirical evidence and (usually) analyze that evidence using meta-analyses. They are a valuable form of scientific collaboration, produce outstanding data sets and are a great resource for third-party researchers. Their data may be reanalyzed…

Meta-analyses of educational research findings frequently involve statistically dependent effect size estimates. Meta-analysts have often addressed dependence issues using ad hoc approaches that involve modifying the data to conform to the assumptions of models for independent effect size estimates, such as by aggregating estimates to obtain one…

In this paper, we propose a new method for selecting cases for in situ, immediate interview research: detector-driven classroom interviewing (DDCI). Published work in educational data mining and learning analytics has yielded highly scalable measures that can detect key aspects of student interaction with computer-based learning in close to…

An analysis of research collaboration in personalized medicine between European and Latin American and Caribbean countries has been conducted in order to identify significant aspects allowing such collaboration. It aims to comprehend strategic issues for establishing research collaborations in personalized medicine between the two regions, as well…

The term "leadership development" is often used in the field of education, management, and business, yet in the context of the leadership learning framework (LLF), it takes on a specific meaning as the innermost, human facets of leadership learning. In addition to the current scholarship around leadership development as a key component…

Over the last decade or so, the rate of growth of academic publications involving discussion of 'citizen science' and 'community science', and similar variants, has risen exponentially. These fluid terms, with no fixed definition, cover a continuum of public participation within a range of scientific activities. It is, therefore, apposite and…

The current study reviewed the practice and application of social validity assessments in single-case design (SCD) studies within the field of school psychology. Social validity refers to the acceptability of intervention or program goals, procedures, and outcomes to educators, families, and students. Understanding the ways social validity is…

The past decade has seen growth in the use of quantitative methods for queer educational research. The purpose of the present study was to review research published in education journals from 2011 to 2022 that used quantitative methods and took up the language of queerness. We ultimately identified 55 such articles and analyzed them for their…

This paper makes a case for developing a theory of quality ecologies in early childhood education and care, and presents our initial thoughts around how that might be done, including how it might create a space for further thinking, research and discussion. First, the politicised, positivist nature of dominant contemporary interpretations of…

In this contribution, we address the gap that has appeared in mathematics education research and practice with the emergence of dynamic geometry environments and build on the opportunities these environments offer to school geometry. In our qualitative empirical study, we investigate how to elaborate on the general model of conceptual knowledge to…

Spreading the value of undergraduate research globally is the main aim of the nascent Alliance for Global Undergraduate Research (AGUR) and its hallmark conference, the World Congress on Undergraduate Research (WorldCUR). This commentary highlights the historical development of AGUR, WorldCUR, their mission, main objectives, impact, and the…
