The MTA is excited to announce the launch of this pioneering open-access journal dedicated to challenging entrenched inequities within education. The journal is dedicated to advancing education policy and practice in Massachusetts. Our journal prioritizes innovative research that challenges entrenched inequities within education, amplifies voices often marginalized, advocates for transformative practices that dismantle power hierarchies, and understands education as a tool for liberation rather than the reproduction of inequality. We welcome scholarship from diverse disciplines, multiple methodologies, and topics covering prekindergarten to higher education.
Our mission is to provide a platform for researchers, scholars and practitioners to share their groundbreaking work, free from financial barriers and accessible to all.
Submissions will open March 1, and we invite researchers from all fields to contribute their work. Revolutionizing Education: a Journal of Education Policy & Practice is a multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal covering issues related to prekindergarten through higher education from a labor and anti-oppression lens.
Topics will include:
- The organizing history of educational unions.
- Labor education practices and approaches.
- The charter school movement.
- High-stakes testing and alternatives.
- Educator labor, political trends and the evolving economy.
- Political, economic and social context of education in the state.
- The politics of school finance and the economics of education.
- Participatory budgeting.
- Full-service community schools.
- Public policy and its intersection with educational policy and practice.
- Curriculum and instruction.
- Trends in education privatization.
- Governance and finance of public schools and higher education.
- Privatization in public higher education.
