The study examined how Northern Ghana’s rural folks handle calls for marriage and higher education. A case study design was implemented within the qualitative method to achieve the stated goal. Results revealed that factors influencing marriage and education choices include poor educational background, peer influence, teenage pregnancy, financial constraints, and parental pressure. There was a greater interest in marriage than in higher education. The institution of marriage is cheap compared to the cost of tertiary education, combined with economic and social advantages. This negatively affects education decisions. Results also showed that higher education helps build better homes and keeps marital households financially secure. However, females are less likely to marry and have children than their male counterparts. The results uncovered elements of incrementalism in the decisions of Senior High School graduates. This is reflected in limited expert advice, limited consideration of alternatives, and more focus on personal experience and feelings related to problem-solving and troubleshooting. However, when confronted with the consequences of their decisions, the study detected traces of rationality and incrementalism.","PeriodicalId":183631,"journal":{"name":"Equity in Education & Society","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132705032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Various activities brought together both students and staff across a post-92 university in the North of England. The co-created project gathered empirical data to explore how belonging and community were experienced by students, evaluated the impact of the co-created events and campaigns for students, and highlighted key areas for the university to further develop. These included recommendations for how the university supports students to feel a sense of belonging, the efficacy of its Race Equality Charter action plan addressing differential outcomes, the learning and teaching approach around using co-creation, embedding equity and social justice within both curriculum and student support services, improved communication systems with students, and ensuring the concept of belonging is at the forefront of student experience. The article concludes by highlighting the intrinsic connection to retention, progression, and success for students with feeling a sense belonging in higher education and describes how co-creation can be used for social justice and equity activism to bring about positive changes to benefit a whole university community.","PeriodicalId":183631,"journal":{"name":"Equity in Education & Society","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121786072","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, literature also shows that imbalances may exist regarding the distribution of those outcomes and discrepancies related to affordance of benefits to diverse populations; in some instances, those discrepancies do not simply lack inclusion, but perpetuate the exclusion of certain individuals. While there are likely many factors and potential solutions related to this discrepancy, a closer look at student funds of knowledge within learning context may provide insight regarding program modifications. Incorporating student funds of knowledge within a learning experience has been shown to benefit learners and support more meaningful experiences. The present paper presents an evaluation tool designed to measure the extent to which a curriculum incorporates student funds of knowledge. Further, we demonstrate the use of this evaluation tool through the examination of an existing curriculum: Project WET 2.0. The curriculum provided limited opportunities to incorporate student funds of knowledge. Students participating in Project WET 2.0 may not experience the benefits associated with incorporating student funds of knowledge including stronger connections between outside worlds and classroom content.","PeriodicalId":183631,"journal":{"name":"Equity in Education & Society","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123626821","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First the model, and how it can be used to bring staff and students together to co-create solutions to awarding gaps, will be introduced. The model focuses on what happens in teaching spaces and curricula. We first outline how the UA developed and brought to ‘proof of concept’ a ‘sandpit’ focused on innovative curriculum development for the 21st century. Then the model was further developed as a ‘charrette’ for course teams and students to work together to address the awarding gap at university level. The case study goes on to present further development, where charrette participants concentrate on bespoke and tailored changes at course and subject level, and work with student ambassadors in a focused way. Finally, lessons learned from the roll-out of the charrette model are presented, along with plans for future development. The case study is intended to provide insight for how to implement a similar initiative in other institutions.","PeriodicalId":183631,"journal":{"name":"Equity in Education & Society","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125153337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current study presents a case study from an environment and human health research group, looking at the extent to which the research outputs mirror the wider knowledge gaps in the field. We use systematic review search methods to obtain publications for an environment and health research group since 2010. We use a combination of EndNote and VosViewer to analyse the frequency of key words and concepts in the titles, abstracts and keywords of these publications. We retrieved a total of 950 publications between 2010 and 2022. We find significant gaps with respect to key concepts appearing in the titles, abstracts and keywords of publications. We find that terms such as ‘colonisation’ and ‘racism’ are not mentioned at all. We reflect on the production process of academic research with respect to reproducing blind spots within environment and human health research. We discuss our results in the context of calls to make academic research more inclusive.","PeriodicalId":183631,"journal":{"name":"Equity in Education & Society","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128172662","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper outlines the underlying reasons behind publishing in predatory journals mainly by some authors from developing countries. I conducted semi-structured telephone interviews with fifty authors from six countries who have already published some of their papers in predatory journals. I recorded the whole interview and later documented those conversations. Afterward, I summarized those documented conversations and highlighted the reasons for publishing in predatory journals made by the interviewees. The major cause indicated by the authors was to mitigate faster publication requirements posed by their educational authorities. Another obvious reason they pointed was the lack of sufficient funds or budgets for conducting research projects that compelled them to publish in such low cost journals that guarantee faster publication. However, some of those authors reported that they were induced to submit papers to those predatory journals to increase the number of papers and citations that brings mental peace to them. Finally, a few interviewees reported that they opted for predatory journals for faster and easy publication as they have insufficient research capacity. I expect to have the attention of policymakers at higher educational institutions and funding agencies so that they can increase research budget and stop the authors from publishing in predatory journals.","PeriodicalId":183631,"journal":{"name":"Equity in Education & Society","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132175516","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
