CoRE Project Publications and Presentations

The Community Research Ecology (CoRE) Project researches the complexities of collective learning and action in education research ecologies, paying particular attention to how education research relies on, reinforces, or resists epistemic boundaries and hierarchies. In other words, we study how efforts to learn and work together through education research can build and bound knowledge communities, with important implications for (in)justice. 

In addition to scholarship focused on field building and IRE, our publications and presentations have more generally investigated the promises and perils associated with different kinds of large-scale, sociotechnical research ecologies. For example, recent articles and chapters have focused on: 

• the knowledge infrastructures that shape and sponsor research syntheses in education (and beyond),
• the sociotechnical platforms that facilitate knowledge brokerage in education, and
• infrastructuring tensions at work in multi-institutional "equity" and "inclusion"-focused collaborations in STEM higher education.
