Abstract

Place is an inescapable aspect of daily life and is intimately linked to our life experiences. An expanding body of research has investigated how place shapes the “geography of opportunity” as well as students’, families’, and stakeholders’ experiences in and around schools. While researchers have begun to investigate the spatial context of education, the notion of place remains somewhat underconceptualized in education research. This chapter draws on an interdisciplinary review of 60 empirical, education-related studies to understand how researchers have accounted for place, the theoretical and conceptual frames in which they ground their work, and their data collection methods. We find that researchers have used place inquiry and spatial methods to investigate diverse education-related phenomena, such as school choice and teaching and learning. Beyond using place to identify and describe inequalities, we argue that place inquiry and spatial methodologies can strengthen the potential of education research to disrupt systems of power and oppression by also advancing our knowledge of the nature of and potential solutions to educational injustice.

地点问题:对教育研究中地点调查和空间方法的批判性回顾
地点是日常生活中不可避免的一个方面,与我们的生活经历密切相关。越来越多的研究机构调查了地点如何塑造“机会地理”,以及学生、家庭和利益相关者在学校内外的经历。虽然研究人员已经开始研究教育的空间背景,但在教育研究中,场所的概念仍然有些概念化。本章通过对60项与教育相关的实证研究进行跨学科回顾,以了解研究人员如何解释地点、他们工作的理论和概念框架,以及他们的数据收集方法。研究发现,研究者利用地点探究和空间研究方法对学校选择、教与学等多种教育相关现象进行了研究。除了使用地点来识别和描述不平等之外,我们认为,地点调查和空间方法可以增强教育研究的潜力,通过提高我们对教育不公正的本质和潜在解决方案的认识,破坏权力和压迫系统。

期刊介绍: Review of Research in Education (RRE), published annually since 1973 (approximately 416 pp./volume year), provides an overview and descriptive analysis of selected topics of relevant research literature through critical and synthesizing essays. Articles are usually solicited for specific RRE issues. There may also be calls for papers. RRE promotes discussion and controversy about research problems in addition to pulling together and summarizing the work in a field.
