The Durable Inequality of Redlining
We examine the relationship between the early 20th-century practice of redlining in housing markets and contemporary school segregation in Oakland, California, using maps from the Home Owners Loan Corporation and school-level demographic data from 1990, 2000, and 2010. White students were more consistently isolated in schools in higher-graded neighborhoods. Black and Hispanic students had less exposure to white students and were more isolated in …
A Social Network Analysis of Engineering Faculty Connections
Connections among faculty who might be potential resources for diffusion of learner-centered practices across STEM departments were examined at a major research university. Specifically, the research assessed the impact of these connections on learner-centered beliefs among faculty and the implementation of learner-centered practices across the network. Participants were recruited from Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics departments, and from dep…
Opting Out in the Empire State
Background Recently, states have experienced widely varying participation in annual assessments, with the opt-out movement concentrated in New York State and Colorado. Geographic variation between and within states suggests that the diffusion of opting out is multilayered and an appropriate phenomenon to explore geographic dimensions of social movements in education. Purpose The study analyzes the geographic patterns of opting out from state asse…
Secondary Dual-Language Learners and Emerging Pedagogies
We draw from an ethnographic research perspective to examine the potential benefits and pitfalls of dual-language secondary classrooms. The data collected come from multiple sources including classroom observations and teacher interviews from dual-language secondary classrooms. A secondary dual-language education conceptual framework is presented. Three dimensions of the DLE framework inform teachers’ pedagogical practices in the classroom: bilin…

This qualitative research study documented the way in which two Latina bilingual teachers advocated for the language rights of emergent bilinguals who attended and resided in two particular school districts in Arizona. Drawing from qualitative and ethnographic approaches, we collected data from teacher interviews, classroom/school observations, district meetings, and community convivios to examine the ways in which two teachers championed languag…
Pills, Potions and Devices
This article examines the ameliorative options facing people with hearing loss in mid-nineteenth-century Britain. As reflected in professional journals of the day, medical understanding of diseases and dysfunctions of the ear was limited, yet there was vigorous assertion and counter-claim as to the cause and treatment of problems. At the time, medicine was largely unregulated and quack practitioners were also able to promote their nostrums and se…
