Current and Emerging Trends Influencing Educational Research - Document Scan - Themes

Abstract
Overview: This summary document presents brief synopses of seven themes related to current Canadian and international education, prepared for the Werklund School of Education Research Areas Working Group. Listed alphabetically, these themes connect to current and emerging trends influencing educational research in early years, K-20, and adult education. These themes were drawn from a scan of over 70 reports and research articles from international education bodies (e.g. OECD, UNESCO), research networks (e.g. Galileo Educational Network), organizations (e.g. McKinsey & Company), and Canadian Ministries of Education (Ontario and Alberta). These themes are: • Adult Education & Lifelong Learning • Belonging & Inclusion • Citizenship & Changing Societies • Digital Technology & STEM • Engagement & Retention • Health & Wellbeing • Literacy & Numeracy.
