  • Early Childhood Education to Post-Secondary Education

  • Education beyond formal contexts (including but not limited to diverse and emerging forms of teaching and learning, spaces, and places)

  • Futurist aspirations: what kind of futures do we want to have? Rebuilding, speculative futures

  • Theoretical orientations/positionings (critical pedagogies, literacy, educational philosophies)

  • Ways of Knowing

  • Graduate research studies and reports in exploratory, theoretical, and/or practice-based research

  • Research-creation and arts-based research

We look forward to reading your innovative works!
