Form flows function: Learner‐centered game Re‐design in a STEM classroom
Abstract Re‐designing games facilitates interest‐driven learning and immerses learners in systems thinking. However, there are limited studies exploring how the form and function of tabletop games influence learners' design decisions and learning experiences. To address this gap, we conducted a mixed‐methods study in a STEM classroom in western Canada.

Educational pathways and outcomes for care‐experienced children: A 16‐year longitudinal study
Abstract Children who are removed from their birth families during childhood—termed care‐experienced—can be at risk for lower educational attainment and poorer school experiences, often linked to deprivation and behavioural factors. However, research often uses aggregated measures that obscure the complexities of care (e.g.

Falling pupil numbers and school closures: Setting a research agenda for a new era of precarity
Abstract This paper explores the significant phenomenon of decreasing pupil numbers in England due to lower birth rates and the impact of a school closure on a school community. It then discusses how the sociology of education might research this major issue.

Harnessing blood clot as a native scaffold for orchestrating tissue repairs and regeneration
The blood clot, owing to its dynamic composition and unique microenvironment, holds significant yet underappreciated potential for tissue engineering. This review systematically summarizes the pathophysiology of clot formation, the key regulatory factors shaping its microenvironment, and its applications in both pre‐clinical and clinical settings ...
