Declining or Waning
- Traditional Pedagogies:
There has been a noticeable reduction in publications focused solely on traditional Indigenous pedagogies without a modern contextual application. This shift suggests a growing emphasis on integrating Indigenous knowledge with contemporary educational practices rather than discussing traditional methods in isolation. - Generalized Indigenous Studies:

Research that compares Indigenous education systems across different countries or regions appears to be waning. The journal is increasingly focusing on localized studies that dive deeper into specific Indigenous contexts rather than broad comparisons.
