Educare

This issue brings together ten research articles and one position paper that address some of today’s most pressing questions in education. The topics addressed span a wide spectrum, including reading promotion, the evolving roles of paraprofessionals, adult learning, and the development of second-language writing. Contributions also examine strategies for preparing teachers to navigate sensitive classroom discussions. Further areas of focus include sustainability through food education, equitable outcomes in the labour market, inclusive guidance for migrants, and the paradoxes of conditional flexibility within digitalised adult education. The position paper invites dialogue on children’s existential meaning-making in interactions with educational robots. These articles challenge us to reconsider what constitutes core educational work in an era of social change and technological transformation.
