Although K-12 schools have always had gender non-conforming people working in them, it is only relatively recently that education research and scholarship have addressed the experiences of transgender people. Trans teachers were the subjects of news articles long before their lives and work were the subject of education research. Through comic…

The purpose of this quantitative, correlational-predictive study was to assess if and to what extent second-grade student race (operationalized as minority status) and student socioeconomic status (operationalized as eligibility for Free and Reduced Lunch) predict second-grade student classification as gifted under two scenarios: using the current…

Gender minority youth experience bullying victimization at concerningly high rates. The current study sought to unmask potentially unique bullying victimization experiences and perceived prevalence of bullying for Transgender, fluid gender, and gender questioning students. Results revealed that all three gender minority groups were significantly…

Fraternal organizations have often received criticism from individuals who argue that these groups perpetuate harmful gendered norms and oppress members who identify with queer communities. However, scholars and practitioners alike have paid little attention to members who identify as bisexual/pansexual (bi/pan) within these organizations. This…

The five-step bystander intervention model (i.e., Notice, Interpret, Accept Responsibility, Know What to Do, Act) has been utilized to study intervention in traditional bullying, but not bullying bystander behavior in online contexts. Additionally, differences in how students of color and White students are involved in bystander behavior in…

Emerging scholars from groups that have been historically excluded from and are currently othered in research careers are vital to developing innovative approaches to studying and remedying the world's most challenging equity and social justice issues. In predominantly white institutions, scholars from othered groups may feel tokenized and…

This article presents the insights collected from an engaged, interactive round table session, where participants from multiple generations discussed how Generation Z interacts with and perceives managerial leadership styles in the workplace.

Among these ways is what I call here 'Colored People's Time', or CPT. 'School…

Neoliberal ideology has transformed higher education timescapes in profound ways. However, research has given limited consideration to how pedagogical practices can create a space for students to reshape these timescapes. By drawing upon empirical material, I will first explore how students reflect upon timescapes in an interdisciplinary course.…

Innovative instructional technologies, especially virtual reality devices, are becoming more prominent and feasible in science education. Concerning science laboratories, activities enriched with virtual reality technology have the potential to make unobservable phenomena accessible in any school. This virtual reality technology has the potential…

Calls for complementing, modifying and 'decolonising' the conceptualisation and implementation of Diversity Education (e.g. "multicultural, intercultural, and/or social justice education") are currently being heard in the 'West'. This paper explores some of the characteristics and benefits of "Chinese Minzu Education" as a…

Research on Intergroup Contact Theory has suggested that more positive environments develop when individuals have greater exposure to diverse groups, though minority students and White students often report different experiences. Literature on higher education institutions has largely been relegated to studies on predominantly White institutions.…
