Australian teacher educators' perceptions of integrated STEM practices and barriers in primary initial teacher education
The integration of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) into primary education is recognised as important in research and policy discourse. However, there is limited consensus on how teacher educators prepare preservice primary teachers for integrated STEM teaching. This two-phase mixed-methods study investigated teacher educators’ practices and perceived barriers to preparing primary preservice teachers for implementing integ…
Rethinking recruitment
Global STEM teacher shortages have prompted research and policy aimed at recruiting priority groups including career changers to teaching. However, there remains a need for a deeper understanding of how career changers decide to become teachers, to inform strategies that may address the teacher shortage crisis more effectively. This research uses Margaret Archer's (2012) theories of reflexivity to explore 16 career changers' decisions to become s…
Questions of ‘teacher quality’
The quality of teachers and teacher-education continues to be a contentious focus of political debate internationally. Many have identified predominantly negative discursive representations of educators in politics, perpetuating myths of sub-standard teacher and teacher-educator quality. Much research has investigated the incentives and effects of these prevailing political discourses, but less researched is how such discourses operate and the te…
Understanding the reasons why career changers pursue or pass on a STEM teaching career
Intractable shortages of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) teachers have prompted international policy efforts to recruit career changers to the profession. This research determines the significant influences on career changers’ decisions to pursue or pass on STEM teaching careers. Surveys completed by 91 career changers from Queensland, Australia, were analysed with Best–Worst Scaling (BWS) methods and Margaret Archer’s th…
Dwelling tenderly with our desires for research and the world
How do we dwell tenderly in the ruins of the modern university? This paper engages a hopeful, collaborative, and sensory methodology to imagine possibilities for research and researcher. As academic women navigating the decay of the neoliberal university amid the shadowy spectre of the 'ideal' academic, we explore our lived experiences, identities, and questions. For us, managing modernity's disorientation and dislocation means showing up differe…
A scoping review of factors that influence career changers’ motivations and decisions when considering teaching
Ongoing shortages of quality teachers has prompted policy interest into career changers as potential solutions. Although Initial Teacher Education (ITE) comprises one-third career changers, little is known about this group. This paper presents a scoping review of career changers’ motivations/decisions to choose teaching as a career. Themes from inductive thematic analysis are deductively synthesised using Margaret Archer’s theories on emergent pr…
