Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Historical analysis of educational policies and practices:
The journal examines the development and changes in educational policies over time, particularly in Canada, analyzing how these policies reflect and influence societal values and structures. - Focus on marginalized voices and experiences:
A significant aim is to highlight the experiences of underrepresented groups in educational history, including Indigenous peoples, racial minorities, and women, thereby enriching the discourse on inclusivity in education. - Interdisciplinary approaches to education history:
The journal encourages interdisciplinary research that integrates insights from various fields, such as sociology, anthropology, and cultural studies, to provide a more comprehensive understanding of educational developments. - Exploration of transnational educational themes:
The scope also includes comparative studies and transnational analyses of educational practices, recognizing the interconnectedness of global educational trends and their local adaptations. - Critical examinations of educational technology and pedagogy:
There is a consistent focus on how educational technologies and pedagogical methods have evolved, including the historical implications of these changes on teaching and learning.
Trending and Emerging
- Indigenous education and history:
Recent publications increasingly focus on Indigenous educational practices and the historical context of Indigenous experiences in the education system, emphasizing reconciliation and decolonization efforts. - Social justice and equity in education:
There is a growing trend towards exploring themes of social justice, equity, and anti-racism in education, reflecting current societal movements and the need for inclusive educational practices. - Impact of technology on education:
Emerging studies investigate the historical impact of technology on educational practices, including the integration of digital tools and their implications for teaching and learning. - Intersections of education with identity and culture:

Research is trending towards understanding the impact of globalization on local education systems, including how international policies and practices influence national educational frameworks.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional narratives of educational success:
There has been a noticeable reduction in papers that celebrate traditional notions of educational success, such as standardized testing and conventional teaching methods, as newer perspectives emphasize critical pedagogy and inclusive practices. - Histories centered solely on elite educational institutions:
Research focusing exclusively on elite or prestigious educational institutions is waning, with a growing preference for studies that consider a wider array of educational contexts, especially those that address inequities. - Historical studies of colonial education systems:
While still relevant, there appears to be a decreasing number of studies solely focused on colonial education systems without integrating contemporary implications or post-colonial critiques. - Narrowly defined geographical studies:
The journal is moving away from studies that strictly focus on local or national contexts without considering broader, transnational perspectives, reflecting a shift towards more global analyses. - Studies on educational theory detached from practice:
There is a decline in papers that discuss educational theories in isolation from their practical applications, as there is a growing demand for research that links theory with real-world educational practices.
