In this essay, Terrenda White examines distinct forms of activism by two influential organizations: the Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) and Teach for America (TFA).

Mui, Constance L.; Murphy, Julien S. – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2020
Higher education has not been spared from the effects of the disruptive aspects of technology.

Kreller, Caylee – British Journal of Guidance & Counselling, 2020
In this article I discuss the ways in which writing poetry and reflecting on its meanings may be a valuable tool for promoting an educator's reflexivity surrounding issues of reconciliation. As Canada embarks on the work of healing the difficulties its colonial past has caused its original inhabitants (i.e. Indigenous peoples), educators must…

Davids, Nuraan – Educational Management Administration & Leadership, 2022
The introduction of school governing bodies in South African schools has largely been motivated by a democratic discourse of communal participation, belonging and accountability.

Biswas, Tanu; Mattheis, Nikolas – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2022
In this paper, we offer a childist reading of school strikes for climate in an overheated world. We argue that school strikes can be understood as offering a dynamic counterweight to formal education, by providing opportunities for children to self-educate, and for others, especially adults, to learn from them. We suggest that taking school…

Rodrigues, Cibele Maria Lima; de Almeida, Karla Wanessa Carvalho; Simões, Patrícia Maria Uchôa – Education Policy Analysis Archives, 2022
The debate around standardized assessments became a global agenda imposed by multilateral organizations.

Collins, Jonathan E. – Phi Delta Kappan, 2022
The voices of students of color often are left out of discussions of urban school reform conversations when they should be central to reform efforts.
