Relational Roots of Civic Fields
Social scientists have long studied the emergence of civic organizations through two dominant perspectives: demand-side theories arguing that these groups fill gaps left by government and market failures, and supply-side theories emphasizing resource mobilization and dependence. However, these theories insufficiently account for how contemporary nonprofits and social enterprises arise in increasingly networked, professionalized, and competitive e…
Effect of International Roommates on College Outcomes
College policies may support intentional cross-cultural interactions among peers. This study examines the impact of having an international roommate on the college outcomes of domestic U.S. students. Using institutional data on more than 6,600 U.S. students from a selective liberal arts college that serves low-income individuals, our analysis demonstrates the positive effects of being paired with an international roommate on U.S. students’ first-…
Governing GenAI through Redefinition, Regulation, and Innovation
Generative artificial intelligence has forced school systems to rapidly pivot from reactive bans to proactive management. Yet, research on local policy responses remains scarce. This study analyzes how the twelve largest US school districts have responded to the introduction of GenAI. Through document and policy analyses, we identify three interrelated policy moves: redefinition of foundational concepts like academic integrity; regulation by crea…
The Ecology of US Education Nonprofits
While many acknowledge that nonprofits influence education, we know little about how many there are, where they cluster, when they emerged, and what types exist. Without empirical data, we are limited in understanding their role in education. Using data from 233,897 US nonprofits, we note 29 types grouped within three clusters: educational institutions, professional school improvement organizations, and associational groups. Spatially, they are p…
Evaluating Organizational Effectiveness
Determining which organizations are more effective in implementing an intervention program is essential for theoretically and empirically characterizing exemplary practice and for intervening to enhance the capacity of ineffective ones. However, sites differ in their local ecological conditions including client composition, availability of alternative programs, and broader community context. Applying the causal inference framework, this study pro…
Subtle Webs
Subtle Webs provides an unprecedented behind-the-scenes look at how local organizations in Chicago, Philadelphia, and New York City have transformed data and worked with schools to solve the problem of dropping out. In the process, the book reveals how organizations outside schools have created an invisible infrastructure not only to affect local school districts but also to shape US education. The book argues that changes in a decentralized syst…
Positionality in the Politics of Education
The success and failure of education reform policies often depend on the strategies of reformers. This article suggests a framework to understand the positionality of reformers, as they vary in their strategy (i.e., technical vs. relational) and focus for change (i.e., process- vs. outcomes-focused). Using the case of individuals who initiated new data systems in Chicago, Philadelphia, and New York City, the study discusses four groups of reforme…
District Demographic Predictors of Anti-“CRT” and Anti-LGBTQ Disruptions
Purpose: This research quantitatively examines what predicts anti-“CRT” and anti-LGBTQ political issues and educational disruptions in US school districts. Our study builds upon prior work that finds educational disruptions to be prevalent in suburbs and adds to an existing body of literature that is largely qualitative and theoretical. Research Methods/Approach: Using a nationally representative sample of district leaders from the 2022 American …
Making Politics Work
Mapping Organizational Theory With SCRIPTS
Organizational theory has developed in numerous directions that have been difficult to integrate. This review synthesizes them into seven perspectives, with theories focused within and beyond the organization (i.e., intra‐ and extra‐organizational dynamics). It proposes the acronym SCRIPTS: structure, culture, relations, institutions, professions, transformation, and social conflict. Within organizations, structure focuses on theories of bureaucr…
From Accountability to Algorithms
While studies often explore the intended and unintended consequences of technologies, few have theorized how and why they change. One crucial transformation in quantitative technologies is the shift from evaluative accountability to predictive algorithms, such as in schools that use dropout prediction systems. Using the case of ninth-grade early warning indicators, I argue that the transformation of quantification resulted from interorganizationa…
Educational Change through Bureaucratic Effectiveness
Studies of networks for educational change often focus on webs of teachers, school leaders, policymakers, and philanthropists, with little attention to staff at the middle level, who arguably have immense potential to effect change. This article explores an initiative for educational change through mid-level staff using the case of a nonprofit that places its members in large, public education bureaucracies in a developing country. I explore a me…
Interviewing K-12 education experts and elites
Understanding education experts and elites is crucial in the context of their larger influence on education and the public’s greater skepticism and criticism of their work. This paper distinguishes between traditional and expert/elite interviews (EEIs), and highlights strategies for conducting them. Experts and elites have relatively broader influence, more synthesized but less situated knowledge, more embedded professional networks, and less ano…
Effective subunits in ineffective systems
Higher education institutions are pressured to use data for university rankings, accreditation, decision making, and technical support of students and faculty. However, these organizations also experience barriers and resistance to such data-driven aspirations. Rather than simply focusing on the whole organization, this research attends to variations in organizational subunits and asks what processes help and hinder data use. It pays attention to…
An Organizational Sociology of Education
Highlighting changes in education and organizational theorizing since the 1950s, this review integrates three perspectives for an organizational sociology of education. The structural perspective focuses on how the formal organization of resources, relationships, and information can influence student outcomes and inequalities through opportunities to learn. The network perspective highlights the role of informal interactions and interpretation as…
“More than professional skills
Universities have multiple functions of teaching, research, community development, and social impact, with the teaching function often thought of as just equipping students with professional knowledge and skills. However, the purpose of students’ higher education may span more than just career preparation, and this knowledge of other purposes could influence how universities can provide opportunities for attaining these goals. Through in-depth in…
Rethinking School Improvement Organizations
School practices and policies are often influenced by various research, nonprofit, for-profit, and philanthropic organizations. To help understand their influence, this article provides a framework accounting for the variety of school improvement organizations (SIOs) and summarizes debates regarding their benefits and risks. I cluster SIOs as providing (a) direct school support, (b) research/advocacy, or (c) funding—each with a continuum of organ…
The Irony of Accountability
Although sociological and organizational studies have focused on the influence of quantification on behavior, the author focuses on quantification's increasingly important consequences on well-being and motivation. Using the case of U.S. education, which has long relied on accountability policies, the author finds that attendance at schools with high-stakes accountability predicted lower student self-efficacy, that is, decreased task motivation a…
Meaning-Making, Negotiation, and Change in School Accountability, Or What Sociology Can Offer Policy Studies
In school systems around the world, countless reform strategies have focused on school and teacher accountability-the process of evaluating schools' performance on the basis of student measures. Policy and education research has been dominated by debates on its effectiveness, where advocates highlight the positive effects on achievement while critics emphasize the negative consequences on pressure, morale, and autonomy. Yet the question is not so…
Ability grouping predicts inequality, not achievement gains in Philippine schools
Increases in Language Input are Sustained among Mothers of Low SES
SYNOPSISObjective. This randomized controlled trial examined whether the quantity and quality of maternal language input were increased through the 3Ts Home Visiting (3Ts-HV) intervention early in toddlerhood and whether increases in maternal language input were sustained over time among families of low SES, controlling for maternal education level, language skill, depressive symptoms, family adversity, child age, child language skills, and the l…

Growth mindset predicts achievement only among rich students
Equity, engagement, and health
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has disrupted and posed great challenges for kindergarten-grade12 education systems. Initial studies on education and COVID-19 often focus on technology use, student learning, and school reopening plans. However, debates on the form of instruction become futile when stakeholders are unclear about what the competing values, issues, and priorities are. Using exploratory data analysis of a representative sampl…

Childhood adversity and deviant peers
Collective Expectations Protecting and Preventing Academic Achievement
High academic expectation—how far a student expects to get in school—is usually predictive of positive outcomes for a student. Yet less is known about mechanisms behind collective expectation: the proportion of students in a school who expect to pursue further studies. Using urban schools’ data from the Education Longitudinal Study 2002, this research examines how collective expectations affect short-term and long-term outcomes, and the predictor…

Structural limitations and functional alternatives reducing suspensions and preserving racial suspension gaps
Although studies on school suspensions focus on the disproportionate number of Black students receiving them, policy changes reducing suspensions offer new insights into the racial gap. Using annual school-level data from the Chicago Public Schools (2012–2016), I evaluate how a suspension reduction policy affected the number of students receiving suspensions, and the suspension gaps between majority Black schools and other schools. I find that th…

Religion and the Creation of Normal Appearance
Religions in prison often help individuals with their internal coping with prison life and with external benefits from participation in religious groups. However, less is known about religion’s role that extend beyond the individual and affect the whole of prison society. Through in-depth interviews in a Philippine prison, the research finds that religious groups have both a normative and a normalizing function. In a sense, these Christian groups…
Will it matter who I’m in school with? Differential influence of collective expectations on urban and rural US schools
Aside from a student’s personal desire to pursue higher education, a culture of high expectations in a school can have important consequences on the individual’s achievement. However, the school’s ‘collective expectation’ is affected by many contextual factors like urbanicity. Contributing to the research on urban-rural difference in education and nuancing the importance of having a culture of high expectations, this research examines how collect…
Using pre-test and post-test data to understand spirituality programs
Quantitatively studying spirituality and spirituality programs poses a challenge because of the imprecision of data and limitations of data analysis techniques. In this research using data from Ignatius University, I show practical methods for analysing pre-test and post-test data, and conceptual opportunities and limitations when using these datasets. For the practical part, I find that the university’s sophomore spirituality programs have subst…
Towards a model for evaluating spiritual recollections
Spiritual recollections are often evaluated through the effectiveness of delivery, rather than the outcomes of the recollections. Such preference is understandable given the difficulty in defining and quantifying recollection outcomes. To address this gap, the article proposes a framework for evaluating recollection outcomes rather than delivery, and shows how a Filipino Catholic university makes use of this framework for its spiritual recollecti…

Understanding when parental aspirations negatively affect student outcomes
Technology’s roles in student-centred learning in higher education
Given challenges of covering course content, ensuring skills acquisition, and assessing student’s work, higher education faculty often experience difficulties in practicing student-centered learning. The education literature has shown that one way of addressing these concerns is through the use of educational technologies. In this action research, ten faculty members from a Philippine university participated in a coaching programme on using techn…
