“…However, the evolving nature of shadow education has broadened the traditional definitions of private supplementary tutoring (Bray, 2023;Yung & Bray, 2021). The boundaries between private and public, supplementary and mainstream, and academic and nonacademic have also become increasingly blurred.…”

“…The final empirical article in this special issue focuses on teaching and learning in mainstream schooling and private tutoring in India. Global research in the field used the metaphor of the shadow to indicate that private tutoring operators provide instruction that simply mimics mainstream school contents to help students to successfully move through the allocation process (Yung & Bray, 2021). However, recent advancement in the field indicates considerable diversity in tutoring practices and contents beyond the curriculum taught in mainstream school (Bhorkar & Bray, 2018;Bray, 2023;Entrich, 2018).…”

“…Sin embargo, el carácter cambiante de la educación en la sombra ha ido ampliando las definiciones tradicionales de las tutorías complementarias (Bray, 2023;Yung & Bray, 2021). Los límites entre privado y público, complementario y convencional, académico y no académico también se han ido difuminando cada vez más.…”

“…El último artículo empírico del número especial se centra en la enseñanza y el aprendizaje en la escolarización convencional y en las tutorías privadas en India. La investigación global en este campo ha hecho uso de la metáfora de la sombra para indicar que los operadores de las tutorías privadas imparten una formación que simplemente reproduce los contenidos de la escuela convencional para ayudar a los estudiantes a navegar eficazmente sus procesos de evaluación (Yung & Bray, 2021). Sin embargo, algunos avances recientes en este campo indican una diversidad considerable en las prácticas de las tutorías y en sus contenidos, más allá del currículum impartido en las escuelas convencionales (Bhorkar & Bray, 2018;Bray, 2023;Entrich, 2018).…”

“…Such educational opportunities have been broadly conceptualized using the term shadow education , as they generally occur outside the ambit of regulated mainstream education, or in other words, in the shadows (Bray, 1999; Stevenson & Baker, 1992). Whilst Asian societies are particularly well known for their emphasis on supplementary tutoring, given the high value placed on academic-oriented education and as a tool for social mobility (Entrich & Lauterbach, 2021; Gopinathan & Lee, 2018; Kim & Jung, 2021), shadow education is also becoming increasingly prevalent in both Western societies and developing countries (Entrich, 2021; Yung & Bray, 2021; Yung & Hajar, 2023).…”

Shadow education research has expanded rapidly worldwide in the past decades. Whilst most studies have focused on somewhat broad dimensions of shadow education (for example, its prevalence, nature and characteristics at different educational levels, or its impact on social inequalities), there are various important micro dimensions of this phenomenon that have received limited scholarly attention. In fact, the field lacks research on topics such as the impact of shadow education on students' developmental outcomes beyond grades and performance scores, teaching and learning practices or the effects of related policies on the various educational stakeholders. This special issue contributes to filling these gaps. The first part of this introductory article briefly defines the concept of shadow education and discusses its evolvement, before identifying the trends and gaps in the extant research. The second part describes the structure and content of the special issue. After the present introduction, readers will find a 'Prospectives' article, followed by four empirical studies. These contributions investigate innovative topics and identify new areas of inquiry in shadow education pertaining to teaching, learning and development. RESUMENEn las últimas décadas, la educación en la sombra se ha extendido rápidamente por todo el mundo. Aunque la mayoría de los estudios se centran en aspectos más bien generales de este fenómeno (por ejemplo, su prevalencia, naturaleza y características en distintos niveles educativos o su impacto en las desigualdades sociales), existen dimensiones importantes a nivel macro que han recibido escasa atención académica. De hecho, ese campo carece de investigaciones sobre aspectos como el impacto que la educación en la sombra ejerce sobre ciertos factores del desarrollo de los estudiantes, más allá de las calificaciones y el rendimiento académico, las prácticas de enseñanza y aprendizaje, o los efectos de determinadas políticas educativas en los distintos actores implicados en el ámbito educativo. Este monográfico contribuye al esfuerzo por subsanar estos vacíos. La primera parte de este ARTICLE HISTORY
