An honest look at public education in Michigan reveals both hopeful and dismal news.

In recent years, the regression discontinuity design (RDD) has gained widespread recognition as a quasi-experimental method that when used correctly, can produce internally valid estimates of causal effects of a treatment, a program or an intervention (hereafter referred to as treatment effects).

Rosa, Milton; Orey, Daniel Clark; de Sousa Mesquita, Ana Paula Santos – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2023
Citizenship education is historically linked with political developments that have forced governments to think deeper about nationality, power, identity, and the process of decolonization since large sectors of the population are denied and even excluded from the development of their citizenship. Currently, there is a need to provide mechanisms…

The "Opportunity-Propensity" framework guides this study. We examine the link between students'…

Teachers are key agents in the political socialisation of adolescents. Therefore, knowledge about teachers' beliefs concerning citizenship is essential, as these beliefs likely relate to how educators socialise young people via preferred modes of teaching. Studying the link between teachers' citizenship norms and associated teaching styles can…
