Ares, Nancy – Yearbook of the National Society for the Study of Education, 2010
O'Connor and Penuel (2010) argue that viewing research in education as a human science requires explicit attention to social, cultural, historical, and institutional dimensions of human activity, to the agency of participants in learning research, and to the importance of incorporating "emic" perspectives that shift the voice of the representation…

Sobe, Noah W.; Ortegon, Nicole D. – Yearbook of the National Society for the Study of Education, 2009
The purported "liquidity" of knowledge is often posed as one of the defining characteristics of the present "age of globalization."
