Jennifer Ayala 《The Urban Review》2009,41(1):66-84
This paper examines theoretical linkages between Anzaldua’s borderland scholarship, in particular the notion of mestiza consciousness,
and participatory action research. Two studies with high school and college co-researchers falling along different points
of the PAR spectrum are described to illustrate these conceptual linkages. Points in the process including critical decisions
in crafting questions and conducting actions, reflections on who are the knowledge holders and producers, and struggles with
responsibilities and vulnerabilities doing this work, are discussed through a lens of mestiza consciousness.

Re-visioning Action: Participatory Action Research and Indigenous Theories of Change 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Eve Tuck 《The Urban Review》2009,41(1):47-65
This article observes that participatory action research (PAR), by nature of being collaborative, necessitates making explicit
theories of change that may have otherwise gone unseen or unexamined. The article explores the limits of the reform/revolution
paradox on actions and theories of change in PAR. Citing examples from two recent youth PAR projects on educational issues,
the author submits that when met with such a paradox, one can only move to a new vantage point. Four alternative vantage points,
drawn from Indigenous epistemologies, are illustrated; they are sovereignty, contention, balance, and relationship.

Dr. Sreyashi Jhumki Basu was a scholar committed to equity and social justice in science education who passed away in December
2008. In this essay, I describe Jhumki’s research and the call to action her life’s work has laid out for the science education
community. In particular, I draw attention to the role of critical science agency in learning and the democratic science pedagogy
model that Jhumki developed to support students in crafting such agency.

This article examines the lives of three transnational second-generation immigrant Latinas who reside in urban centers in
California and maintain close ties to Mexico. Drawing from a participatory research and ethnographic study, I provide evidence
of the out-of-school learning that they experience and how this shapes their notions of global citizenship. Although schools
have begun to slowly recognize transnational immigrant students, many urban educators whose cities are palpably transformed
by immigrants have not fully connected the promise of such a global lifestyle and its potential for instruction in the classroom.

Peter Wood 《Academic Questions》2007,20(4):277-294
This essay on the ethical mission of the university explores extremes of anti-social behavior, visiting numerous crime scenes
before concluding that contemporary higher education has lost the capacity—and even the language—for taking character development
seriously. In his attempt to determine whether coincidently traditional-liberationist-diversiphilic-apathetic colleges can
morally improve their charges, Peter Wood collects a wrenching compendium of violent academic mayhem.

Ideological differences in a writing class evoke the passion of political sensitivities. A graduate student tells of “coming
out” as a pro-life advocate in an essay before his feminist classmates and professor. The exchange created instant and irreconcilable
enemies, but he also found some unexpected support from a hesitant voice within that classroom.

Campus-based urban legends have the potential to convey and construct student culture in higher education. Basic qualitative
and humanistic research methods were used to collect, analyze, and interpret legends related to the academic experience of
collegiate life.

The goal of this research effort is to provide insights on what core needs and difficulties exist toward the implementation
of ICT in higher education in emerging countries and how a consortium like LINC can best support these efforts. An exploratory
research design combining a survey, on-site interviews, participant observation and document analysis were employed to answer
the research questions. Main challenges in establishing technology- based learning environments were identified in the area
of pedagogies, finances, technological infrastructure, cultural change, organization, and management. LINC, as an non-political
organization embedded in an academic environment, can take an important role in facilitating the dialogue among participants
through various platforms, take an active role in promoting joint programs and assist with efforts to “localize” tools and
practice.

This essay calls for a fresh critical approach to the topic of censorship, suggesting that anticensorship efforts, while important
and necessary, function much like literary prizing. The analysis draws especially on James English’s recent study The Economy of Prestige. There are two central arguments: first, that the librarian ethic of “selection”––introduced by Lester Asheim in 1953 as
a counterpoint to censorship––has contributed to the unfortunate construction of the censor as a “moron”; and second, that
anticensorship efforts more generally tend toward uncritical canon-making, attributing value to books simply because they’ve
been censored or (more typically) challenged.

Faculty have long incorporated students into interdisciplinary research projects to meet increasingly common demands for collaborative
research by federal funding agencies. Despite the critical role of experiential learning in building student research skills
and capacity, few have explored social interaction mechanisms used to facilitate student experiential learning in an interdisciplinary
research team. Drawing upon the New Rural Economy project as a case study, interviews with 13 students from eight Canadian
universities were conducted to explore these social interaction mechanisms. While findings revealed an array of social interaction
mechanisms used to develop student learning networks, the quality of these mechanisms were mixed; thereby influencing the
utilization of these networks for guidance and feedback. As faculty organize social interaction mechanisms, they should consider
factors such as previous experience, student and faculty relationships, finances, language, gender, ethnicity, and other issues,
that will have an impact on student engagement with experiential learning.

Technology in Support of Collaborative Learning 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This paper reviews the research conducted in the last 20 years on the application of technology in support of collaborative
learning in higher education. The review focuses primarily on studies that use Internet-based technologies and social interaction
analysis. The review provides six sets of observations/recommendations regarding methodology, empirical evidence, and research
gaps and issues that may help focus future research in this emerging field of study.

This paper provides a review of research that examines the development and expression of agency in and through high-school
physics. The interchange offers realizations and questions brought to mind by the reading of the research and provides written
comments connected to specific sections of the paper germane to my own theoretical perspective. Within the context of this
commentary, raised issues are discussed in a dialogic manner in order to elucidate deeper understanding concerning the empirical
investigation presented in the study. As a final point, a brief synopsis is put forward regarding some of the contributions
that studies such as the one reviewed have to offer for providing equitable access to science for all students.

This essay examines the interplay between Jane Andrews’s purpose and her pedagogy in The Seven Little Sisters Who Live on the Round Ball that Floats in the Air. The book demonstrates the teaching strategies she learned at the First State Normal in Massachusetts, moving from what the child knows to new material, engaging the child in personal observation and experiment, and introducing broad concepts before using precise terms. However, a sense of international children as distinctly “other” emerges from the author’s use of the white American reader as the point of comparison with the children of color she writes about.

The motivation and methodology for measuring intelligence have changed repeatedly in the modern history of large-scale student
testing. Test makers have always sought to identify raw aptitude for cultivation, but they have never figured out how to promote
excellence while preserving equality. They’ve settled for egalitarianism, which gives rise to “culturally fair” tests that
substitute vagaries for knowledge, deprive students of any real appreciation for language, and trivialize education. Robert
Jackson yearns for traditional oratorical approaches to schooling that venerate and imitate essential, time-tested masters.
Unfortunately, he writes, such an education defies measurement with today’s multiple-choice instruments.

Cody S. Ding 《Educational Assessment, Evaluation and Accountability》2009,21(2):155-171
Evaluation is required for almost all educational activities or programs, particularly for federal- and state-funded programs.
Such a requirement is quite understandable given that we need to know what has been done actually produces its intended purposes.
However, it is almost impossible that bad data can provide justified conclusions, and there are many evaluation studies that
are circumvented by the fact that evaluation is a post-hoc test of educational activities. Thus, it is hard to produce the
rigor and relevance of an evaluation study that may need good design and analysis to even provide partial answers to the original
questions. The goal of this paper is to provide researchers and practitioners with some of the insights that may serve as
a useful guide for designing and implementing longitudinal evaluation in a way that can improve the likelihood of high quality
data for future evaluation studies.

Faculty experiences of innovative approaches to learning and the changes to their knowledge emerging from such experiences
constitute an important area of inquiry that has to date largely been ignored or has been approached with research methods
ill-suited to examining such experiences. This paper adopts interpretative meta-ethnography as its research framework to investigate
the changes to faculty knowledge that occur when they adopt problem-based learning (PBL). The paper presents themes that emerged
through the analysis and argues for future inquiry.

A great challenge in education research involves the difficulty of differentiating between studies that apply commonly understood
theoretical perspectives and recognizing studies that merely rename old theoretical frameworks. This conflict between intellectual
innovation and intellectual retrofitting emerges as central to Basu, Calabrese-Barton, Clairmont, and Lock’s exploration of
the relationship between critical agency and student identity development in science.
