Traditionally, internationalization efforts in higher education have been rooted in (neo)liberal transactional models that restrict or compromise the space for meaningful exchanges of socio-cultural capital. Recently, researchers and practitioners in the international education field have taken issue with programming and practices in education…

Research shows that attention to pattern and structure is fundamental to mathematical learning and attainment yet early mathematics curricula in England underplay the importance of patterning. In a critical realist notion of powerful knowledge, pattern teaching has the potential to empower children to notice patterns, mathematise their everyday…

Author overviews interdisciplinary and culturally relevant theoretical/conceptual frameworks and methodologies researchers and theorists have employed to examine Black women's experiences in higher education as students, administrators, and faculty. In conversation with literature and her lived experiences, the author offers three lessons for…

This paper focuses on the plural uses of pedagogical documentation, particularly the uses in the development of processes of Context-Based Participatory Professional Development for continuous professional development. It sits in the realm of participatory pedagogies, specifically the Pedagogy-in-Participation approach (Oliveira-Formosinho and…

Differentiated instruction (DI) addresses academic diversity in order to maximise learning. Although it is theorised as both a philosophy and as a praxis of teaching, it is rarely measured as such. This study examines teacher profiles on differentiated instruction relating to their philosophy and self-reported praxis. The data stem from an…

Much scholarship available on team-teaching focuses on K-12 programming, with limited examples in post-secondary education. Adding to the growing research on college-level team-taught courses, this reflection describes how interdisciplinary team-teaching can offer not only a pedagogically innovative experience for students but also highlight the…

Tenets of the Arts-based Research (ABR) framework share similarities with a praxial music education. An ABR framework can support music educators' teaching practices ranging from novice to the established teacher. This can be achieved by establishing and maintaining strong student-teacher relationships through the creation, development, adaptation…

Despite persistent calls to support international students on campuses, there is little research about the attitudes that higher education professionals, in particular academic advisors, hold about international students. Through a neo-racism framework, we found multiple neo-racist attitudes that have the potential to negatively impact academic…

With this position paper, we advance the case for reformation of U.S. special education law and praxis. These have undergone mostly incremental changes over the five decades since their inception despite a substantial body of evidence amassed over this period, which points to a major gap between extant policy and praxis, and contemporary cultural…

Students who spent time in state care as children, usually due to neglect or maltreatment, are a growing community within higher education in many countries. However, their participation rates generally remain below average and they are more likely to withdraw early, while their experiences have not yet been well-theorised. In this article, we…

While states, educational agencies, and colleges of education across the United States seek to recruit more Black social studies teachers, the authors of this study--two former social studies teachers turned social studies preservice educators--raise caution to how limited these efforts are in transforming the anti-Black conditions that often…

In the dynamic landscape of the neoliberal university, conversations between emerging scholars serve as vital spaces for critical reflection and transformative action. This collaborative autoethnographic study engaged with the complexities of navigating academia as two black clinical psychologists within a South African university. Drawing on…

Participatory action research (PAR) is an embodied form of inquiry that engages those most affected by an issue or problem in creating knowledge and developing solutions. PAR epistemology intersects with the critical approach to adult education, particularly the belief that programs, methods, and content must be relevant to learner needs and…

In this article, we utilize the Transformational Indigenous Praxis Model (TIPM) to analyze interviews from beginning teachers and teacher candidates in early childhood education who identify as Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC). Findings revealed that participants developed a degree of consciousness to name the settler-colonial…

As university-based educational researchers who have engaged in participatory methods with marginalized populations, we have rising concerns about how interpersonal and institutional power dynamics affect co-researchers from racial and ethnic minority groups. In this manuscript, we use critical race and critical whiteness theory and…
