    2015-09-01
    Dear Readers,

    As we begin a new academic year, EPAA/AAPE would like to say farewell to Amy Marcetti Topper for her service to the journal and welcome Dr. Stephanie McBride-Schreiner.

    Amy is ABD in ASU’s Education Policy and Evaluation program and has served as a Managing Editor of the journal for the past three years.

  • Call for Papers: Discursive Perspectives on Education Policy Implementation, Adaptation, and Learning

    2015-07-01

    Call for Papers: Discursive Perspectives on Education Policy Implementation, Adaptation, and Learning,

    A particular aim of this special issue is to demonstrate the potential that discourse analytic approaches have for the study of education policy. We invite authors to submit manuscripts examining education policy using both micro-analytic traditions (e.g., conversation analysis, discursive psychology, etc.) and macro-analytic traditions (e.g., poststructural discourse analysis; critical discourse analysis) to discourse analysis. We are particularly interested in analyses that focus on the ways in which policy comes to be known, understood, or interpreted through formal and informal interactions, including: classroom talk, professional conversations, and public conversations among and between policymakers and the media. We welcome submissions that are empirical, theoretical, and methodological in scope, as well as submissions connected to education and/or education-related settings. Further, we encourage scholars from both the United States and international contexts to contribute.

  • Número especial: Stephen J. Ball y la investigación sobre políticas educativas en América Latina

    2014-07-29

    Las contribuciones más significativas de Stephen J. Ball y sus colaboradores pueden agruparse en tres grandes ejes temáticos. En primer lugar, el análisis de la participación de nuevos actores en la política educativa, tales como las empresas y las organizaciones filantrópicas; lo que implica una redefinición del estado y de la forma en que se gobierna a la educación. Ball nos advierte acerca de la necesidad de repensar categorías binarias tales como público-privado, estatal – no estatal, actividades con y sin fines de lucro, entre otras, al notar que las fronteras entre estos polos están siendo redefinidas permanentemente. El segundo eje que destacamos del trabajo de Ball es el que analiza los ciclos de la política y la “puesta en acto” de las políticas en el nivel micro-institucional. Ball cuestiona el concepto de “implementación” y las visiones lineales acerca de las relaciones entre la “política” y la “práctica”. Por el contrario, propone enfoques conceptuales que contribuyen a abrir la caja negra de las políticas educativas, explorando cómo éstas definen marcos posibles para la acción, pero, al mismo tiempo, dejan márgenes para las interpretaciones y acciones de los individuos que actúan en diferentes contextos. El tercer eje temático que identificamos es el que examina las relaciones entre la clase social  y las políticas educativas, prestando especial atención a cómo ciertas políticas – en particular las vinculadas a lógicas de mercado -  han contribuido a la consolidación de circuitos educativos desiguales y, de esta manera, han beneficiado a las familias de clase media y perjudicado a las de clase trabajadora.

    Consideramos que las preocupaciones teóricas y las preguntas de investigación empírica de Stephen J. Ball contribuyen a visibilizar, mapear e interrogar algunos aspectos que han sido marginalizados en la mayoría de las investigaciones sobre las políticas educativas en América Latina. Las indagaciones de Ball sobre la producción de las políticas educativas y sus efectos en las desigualdades educativas y sociales invitan a caracterizar y problematizar el rol que diversos actores estatales y no estatales tienen en la definición y re-definición de aspectos centrales de los sistemas educativos en América Latina (tales como los contenidos curriculares, los modos legítimos de su transmisión, y la distribución de recursos materiales y humanos, entre otros). Las herramientas teóricas forjadas por Ball contribuyen a examinar estos nuevos fenómenos como expresiones de un proceso más amplio de re-configuración del estado y de sus relaciones con la sociedad civil, el cual se inscribe en un escenario caracterizado por desplazamientos de las relaciones de poder a nivel global y al interior de los sistemas educativos.

    Este número especial de AAPE/EPAA se propone publicar trabajos de investigación que se apropien y dialoguen críticamente con el enfoque teórico que Stephen J. Ball ha desarrollado durante las últimas tres décadas, con el objetivo de profundizar nuestra comprensión de las políticas educativas en América Latina.

    Aquí, antes que traducciones lineales de una perspectiva elaborada para analizar otros contextos, nos interesa  mapear la fertilidad de las preguntas y del marco interpretativo de Ball para comprender el carácter conflictivo, dinámico y multi-situado de las políticas educativas en América Latina.

  • Call for Papers: Examining Teach For America

    2014-07-15

    Special Topic: Examining Teach For America: Politics, Leadership, Student Achievement, and Race

    In 1989, Princeton undergraduate Wendy Kopp established Teach For America. She envisioned a national teacher corps patterned after the Peace Corps that would be comprised of graduates of elite universities. When corps members left the classroom after a two-year commitment, they were expected to become lifelong advocates for public education in whatever profession they chose. More than twenty years later, TFA has placed over 25,000 teachers in more than 35 school districts, and enjoys significant federal, foundation, and corporate funding. Its leaders regard the organization as a critical agent in ameliorating educational inequality, and they imagine that TFA develops leaders who work across multiple professional, political, and educational terrains to reshape schooling for poor children and children of color. It has built an active alumni network, has developed programs to encourage alumni to run for public office, and has established relationships with many graduate programs and professional schools to create pipelines for civic leadership. Thus, although TFA began as an alternative teacher preparation and placement organization, its mission has shifted over the last two decades. Today, TFA maintains that it selects and prepares educational and social policy leaders.

     

    To date, however, the research on TFA has tended to fall into four categories: (1) conceptual debates about the organization’s potential advantages and disadvantages; (2) empirical studies of TFA’s effects on student test-based outcomes; (3) TFA memoirs and journalistic accounts of corps’ members experiences; and (4) a small, but growing set of empirical studies that conceive of corps members as social and political actors. This special issue joins this last body of scholarship, which is attempting to reframeTeach For America as an organization that is situated within a larger political and ideological movement.  It will also complement EPAA’s forthcoming special issue on TFA’s international spin-off, Teach For All.


    Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA) announces a call for papers for a special issue exploring the multiple effects of TFA on educational leadership, policy, racial representation, and student achievement. It seeks to answer:  What are the political and ideological roots of TFA’s relationship with schools, communities, and the system of public education? What do we know about TFA’s impacts on the quality of education for marginalized students, such as English Learners and children of color? How does TFA shape its corps members’ understandings about the roots of educational inequality, as well as the subsequent policies or reforms for addressing them?

     

    By answering these questions, this issue contributes to the theory, policy, and practice related to Teach For America. It also expands the discourse on TFA by offering multiple, varied conceptualizations of the organizations “effects” and their long-term implications for educational equity in our nation’s public schools.


    About the Journal: Celebrating its 22th year, EPAA is a peer-reviewed, open-access, international, multilingual, and multidisciplinary journal designed for researchers, practitioners, policy makers, and development analysts concerned with education policies.

  • Call for Papers: Teach For All and Global Teacher Education Reform

    2014-05-29

    Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA) announces a call for papers for a special issue exploring Teach for All and Global Teacher Education Reform. The teacher education landscape is changing around the world, as global actors and discourses emerge in ways that are both novel and historically grounded. One such actor is Teach For All, the global organization that aims at redefining what it means to teach and to participate in the educational arena. Teach For All pursues this goal by serving as an umbrella network that provides strategic support to social entrepreneurs throughout the world that seek to adapt and implement the education reform ideals and organizational model of Teach For America. Since Teach For All was founded at the 2007 Clinton Global Initiative, 33 programs have appeared in countries as different as Argentina, Estonia, Germany, Pakistan and China, with varying levels of reach, impact, and integration/conflict with the established stakeholders. The degree of adaptation of the model has also varied extensively in response to differing local needs and policy contexts. This proposed Special Issue of EPAA/AAPE seeks to gain a deeper understanding of the workings of this specific type of teacher education reform by combining multiple theoretical frameworks and methodological approaches, and bringing together analyses of the global network as a whole alongside case studies of a few local programs.

     

    Research on Teach For All and the programs residing under its umbrella is currently extremely scarce, with the exception of analyses of Teach For America, and to a lesser extent, Teach First (UK). However, the rapid expansion of the network, the considerable funding and support it is gathering both from public and private partners, and most importantly, the ways in which it is influencing public debate and policy around issues of teacher recruitment, retention and certification, the role of unions, learning assessment, and school policy demands a concerted effort at producing a critical mass of scholarship that will provide perspective, evidence and conceptual contributions to avoid a narrowing of the conversation. This special issue will be a central contribution towards these efforts, and will hopefully serve as a hub for scholars, policymakers, teachers and other stakeholders seeking to actively participate in the debate from an informed, thoughtful standpoint. Editors will consider both empirical and theoretical pieces, as well as a wide range of methodological approaches, including quantitative, qualitative and mixed methods. Editors will only consider papers written in English.

  • Call for Papers: Models of Open Education in Higher Education

    2014-04-24

    Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA) announces a call for papers for a special issue exploring “Models of Open Education in Higher Education.” Through the advent of open educational resources (OER) and open access, the education arena is witnessing the rise of new models to support learning. From Coursera to Codecademy, to local initiatives led by individual instructors—these models are helping to shift the way that higher education institutions approach pedagogy and credentialing, both at the policy and the course levels. For example, several institutions have created new offices and initiatives to encourage faculty to creatively use open content in their courses; some of these institutions are also supporting lifelong learning by enlisting their faculty to lead Massive Open Online Courses, or MOOCs. Other institutions are partnering with open content providers to create adaptable, accredited courses that are better aligned to employers’ expectations for workforce competencies. And instructors are experimenting with new pedagogical approaches offered through open content as a means of meeting their students’ varied learning styles and needs.

     

    These models will likely continue to make inroads into higher education—spurred in part by rising costs of education, decreases in funding, and increased demand from students, parents, and employers for innovative teaching approaches. There is currently, however, limited empirical understanding of the forms that these models can take, and their potential impact on formal education, on policy, on curriculum, and on the practice of pedagogy.


    Education Policy Analysis Archives announces a call for papers for a special issue exploring the policy and practice of open education models in higher education. The special issue seeks to answer: What are the ways that OER support current challenges in higher education? How are these new, OER-based models impacting education as we know it—at both a policy and practice level? And finally, how are these new models impacting higher education stakeholders, including instructors their students? In answering these questions, this issue hopes to inform both theory and in practice by opening up dialogue and providing evidence for the ways that these models can support institutional goals, and by offering insights into successful practices that leverage open content toward enhanced student learning.
