Call for papers: Special issue on Research Methods, Methodologies, and Philosophy of Science in Educational Research

2025-11-17

This special issue aims to address the need for systematic knowledge development around methodological and epistemological questions in educational research. It seeks to critically examine dominant approaches and the challenges they present across all levels of education—from early childhood to higher education.

The growth of educational research in the Nordic region is partly due to the introduction of mandatory master's degrees for teachers and the expansion of teacher education programs. This has led to a surge in master's theses and research activity, prompting critical reflection on how educational research is conducted and how methodological choices shape knowledge production.

Despite this growth, recent studies highlight a methodological lag—pointing to a need for stronger theoretical grounding and critical reflection on research methods.

Deadline for submission of papers: June 30, 2026

					Se Vol 9 Nr. 4 (2025): Special issue - The Implementation of Educational Reforms and Changing Classroom Practices

This special issue explores how recently introduced educational reforms are being implemented in different contexts and how they translate into classroom practices in different school subjects. By adopting a comparative perspective, we seek to unravel the nuanced and varied ways in which these reforms impact both teaching and learning across different subjects or grade levels, or within the same subject across time comparing different reforms in the same or different geographical locations.
