Higher education perpetuates assimilationist ideas at odds with how an increasingly diverse student population makes meaning of their learning experiences. There is a heightened exigence to engage in inclusive and equity-minded teaching practices at Hispanic Serving Institutions where structural inequalities still prevail due to whiteness and…

Despite the enormous impact of COVID-19 on children's education and their families, few studies have examined how families experienced this educational disruption, especially regarding the perceptions of parents of elementary-aged children, and differential experiences as a function of socioeconomic status (SES). Guided by informal media reports,…

Longitudinal multimethod data across three time points were examined to explore the associations between previously institutionalized toddlers' (N = 71; 59% female) socioemotional skills (Time Point 1: 18 months to 3-years-old), executive functioning (i.e., attention, working memory, inhibitory control) in the preschool years (Time Point 2:…

Social work education promotes a critical lens through which students engage with power systems. As educators, faculty often decide whether to share their own identities with students, yet we lack research on reasons faculty choose to share (or not share) their identities, and the ways in which privilege and marginalization affect that decision.…

The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) is a new discipline, with seeds sown by educational theorists of the early twentieth century and blossoming in the 1990s. As an inherently interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary field focusing on higher education, SoTL interrogates a range of subjects, encompasses a variety of genres, and uses a…

Background: Understanding how contextual elements within educational environments relate to identity formation can help educators design experiences intended to support identity formation processes. Purpose: This study examined identity formation among students enrolled in immersion semester high schools and how contextual elements and identity…

This paper aims to understand the nature of classrooms, "power containers" in Gidden's words (Giddens, 1986, p.136), in terms of inequality and power share. Inequalities in education have been a by-passed subject in Turkey for a long time, and classroom practices remained "black boxes" (Mehan, 1979, p.4). Thus, after a brief…

This research aligned with protocols established by the Florida Board of Governors in 2016 to form a new funding model tied to the institution's performance. The literature review highlighted a disparity between students' expectations and the reality of college which could negatively impact persistence, and therefore funding to the institution.…

Care theory began as an ethical framework focused on the creation of classrooms and schools that treat students and communities in more empathetic and meaningful ways. Over thirty years after its application to the field, there is broad agreement that students need caring classrooms and teachers have come to be the primary providers of this care.…

Although outcomes of stereotypes, self-fulfilling prophecy, and care have long been examined, student athlete perceptions of stereotypes have not (Dee, 2014; Knust & Fisher, 2015; Lachman, 2012; Noddings, 2005; Riciputi & Erdal, 2017; Schools et al., 2020; Steele & Aronson, 1995). The study's purpose was to examine collegiate…

The problem addressed in this study was that online graduate students are not always clear about the role that academic support may serve in their online education, which may contribute to them not seeking support, even when it is needed. The purpose of this qualitative exploratory single case study was to explore student and coach perceptions…

Non-major music students are an integral part of university music departments, as they both bolster the department's enrollment numbers and bring diverse perspectives to the ensembles, lessons, and classes in which they participate. Although most non-majors focus their time on ensembles, a few choose to include lessons as part of their experience.…

Educators' attitudes are a key factor in the practices they enact, their expectations for pupils, and outcomes for pupils. For newly arrived refugee and asylum-seeking children, education is known to play a crucial role in the settling-in process. This study uses survey data (n = 295) and case studies of 17 educators at two schools in England to…

Research-supported knowledge about how children develop language is considered foundational for high-quality instruction and as such, measuring and developing teachers' knowledge has been emphasized across the field of early childhood. However, there is a critical gap in understanding how this static knowledge gained through pre-service and…

Matters of identity are personally and socially constructed and do not always align with teacher perceptions. When this occurs, it can cause internal tensions in ways students navigate their sense of being in schooling and in society as a whole. These tensions can also impact students' mathematical identity and their motivations within mathematics…
