Child as Method: Othering, Interiority…
Children's ideas about Covid-19 and learning loss: Interviews with 10 second-graders

The paper examines empirical studies on RC’s efficacy and outcomes, many of which were conducted under the aegis of a single developmental psychology lab and in US schools. The paper critiques…

It encourages educational thinkers and childhood mental health professionals to take a historical perspective on children's badness rather than consigning it to the realm of pathology. Juxtaposing behavior of ADHD-diagnosed children, as well as their overall experiences in school, to class…
