Virtual Special Issue on “Mixed Methods Designs, Integration, and Visual Practices in Educational Research”
Educational researchers are increasingly turning to mixed methods research to account for complexity in research contexts and phenomena (Shannon-Baker, 2017). Education was the top field (n = 41, 33%) among empirical papers published in the first 10 years (2007–2016) of the Journal of Mixed Methods Research (Molina-Azorin & Fetters, 2017). Educational research associations have special interest groups for mixed methods research (e.g., American Educational Research Association, European Association for Research on Learning and Instruction). This interest in mixed methods research and the wealth of available articles in the Journal of Mixed Methods Research presents a prime opportunity to collect impactful discussions about applying mixed methods research in educational contexts that can be useful not only for educational research but also for the mixed methods community. The purpose of this virtual special issue is to showcase the breadth of applications of mixed methods research in educational research published in the Journal of Mixed Methods Research as of early January 2022. The 19 articles chosen for this collection were based on education broadly defined and included both empirical and methodological articles.

期刊介绍:
The Journal of Mixed Methods Research serves as a premiere outlet for ground-breaking and seminal work in the field of mixed methods research. Of primary importance will be building an international and multidisciplinary community of mixed methods researchers. The journal''s scope includes exploring a global terminology and nomenclature for mixed methods research, delineating where mixed methods research may be used most effectively, creating the paradigmatic and philosophical foundations for mixed methods research, illuminating design and procedure issues, and determining the logistics of conducting mixed methods research. JMMR invites articles from a wide variety of international perspectives, including academics and practitioners from psychology, sociology, education, evaluation, health sciences, geography, communication, management, family studies, marketing, social work, and other related disciplines across the social, behavioral, and human sciences.
