This volume narrates and shares the often-unheard voices of students, parents, and educators during the COVID-19 pandemic. Through close analysis of their lived experiences, the book identifies key patterns, pitfalls, and lessons learnt from pandemic education.

Drawing on contributions from all levels of the US education system, the book situates these myriad voices and perspectives within a prismatic theory framework in order to recognise how these views and experiences interconnect. Detailed narrative and phenomenological analysis also call attention to patterns of inequality, reduced social and emotional well-being, pressures on parents, and the role of communication, flexibility, and teacher-led innovation. Chapters are interchanged with interludes that showcase a lyrical and authentic approach to understanding the multiplicity of experience in the text.

Providing a valuable contribution to the contemporary field of pandemic education research, this volume will be of interest to researchers, academics, and educators with an interest in the sociology of education, online teaching and eLearning, and those involved with the digitalization of education at all levels. Those more broadly interested in educational research methods and the effects of home-schooling will also benefit.

A groundbreaking exploration of educational leadership and practices in the face of complex challenges, this book presents a fresh perspective on the intersection of leadership, restorative practices, professional learning communities, and project-based learning.

Drawing on a study of an established community-based K-8 charter school as a microcosm for studying educational change, the authors implement a prismatic theory framework design to explore change, liminal spaces, and complex educational problems. It uncovers the detrimental impact of punitive approaches that isolate individuals, perpetuate exclusionary practices, and challenge the traditional behavior management systems prevalent in inclusive settings. As such, it examines how to transform school culture and foster more inclusive restorative practices. Using relevant literature, phenomenological interviews, and narratives, it presents multidimensional understandings of managing complex change, highlighting diverse voices and perspectives on complex educational structures.

With a timely relevance in the post-distance learning educational landscape, it will be a vital resource for scholars, researchers, educators, and leaders with interests in educational leadership, inclusive practices, project-based learning, disability studies, and restorative justice.
