O' Keeffe, Suzanne; Skerritt, Craig – International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 2021
This paper explores poststructural tools as a particularly helpful ontological stance in advancing the concerns of marginalized groups in educational research.

For the new approaches to language e-learning (e.g. language blended learning, language autonomous learning or mobile-assisted language learning) to succeed, some automatic functions for error correction (for instance, in exercises) will have to be included in the long run in the corresponding environments and/or applications. A possible way to…

Ngoepe, Mpho; Jacobs, Lorette; Geyer, Elizabeth – Education for Information, 2022
Since the emergence of postcolonialism, there has been a call for epistemic decolonisation in the African scientific community. Paradigmatic backgrounds are key to defining belief systems that guide research investigations -- not only in choice of approach, but also in the contextualisation and execution of research designs. Researchers' limited…

The enduring nature of the problem of inequality in education suggests that new ways of understanding and ameliorating it are needed. Non-representational ontology is yielding new insights in other fields but is yet to gain traction in education. The requisite ontological shift would attend to inequality as a specific material effect of practices…

Bearance, Deborah; Holmes, Kimberley – Interchange: A Quarterly Review of Education, 2015
Traditionally, when ontology is taught in a graduate studies course on social research, there is a tendency for this concept to be examined through the process of lectures and readings. Such an approach often leaves graduate students to grapple with a personal embodiment of this concept and to comprehend how ontology can ground their research.…
