Primary school mathematics leaders as brokers of professional learning
Continuing professional development and learning (CPDL) is key to educational quality and teacher retention, yet the remodelling of England’s school system in recent years has shifted roles and responsibilities for this important work. This article reports on a recent investigation into the CPDL work of mathematics subject leaders in 19 primary schools in three locality case studies, drawing on analysis of 57 interviews and using Harris’ four dim…
The emergence and evolution of ambiguous ideas
Systematic literature reviews are attempts to understand conversations between researchers working to develop solutions to common problems. These conversations often stretch back decades and can involve the participation of dozens of authors. Traditional approaches to systematic reviews are ill-equipped to make sense of the sheer volume of relevant literature when exploring the emergence and evolution of ambiguous ideas across large knowledge com…
Storytelling With Networks
Network visualizations are alluring yet deceptively difficult to interpret. This article demonstrates several strategies for integrating qualitative data into interactive network diagrams for the purposes of providing contextual information about actors and their relationships. The result is a new joint display called a Narrated Network Diagram (NND). The development of NNDs aims to make network visualizations more reliable tools for reporting re…
Using social network analysis to complete literature reviews
Literature reviews are required at early stages of a traditional research progression. Many systematic approaches help researchers identify relevant literature. However, there is far less support for interpreting large collections of references. Understanding the evolution of knowledge within a discipline requires an awareness of the collaborative networks from which significant advances originate. Unfortunately, this relational awareness is only…
