Womxn on soapboxes
In the wake of historical under-representation and marginalization, the voices and experiences of women often fail to take centre stage in journalism. Ethical frameworks for journalism have advocated that it should be judged by its success in promoting change, such as making a difference for the under-represented. In response, this work takes a feminist action research approach by producing a live journalism event, ‘News on the Street’, to promot…
Flooding and extreme heat experiences among Ohio’s queer communities
This research advances scholarship on climate justice and its gendered dimensions by producing original evidence on environmental health disparities among queer populations. The study objectives include (1) describing the distribution of experiences with flooding and extreme heat; and (2) quantifying the odds of experiencing flooding, extreme heat, and negative health experiences along multiple dimensions of social identity and geographic locatio…
News Cabaret”
At a time of political polarisation, social fragmentation and continuing mistrust in journalism, the practice of “live journalism” is flourishing. The practice aims to reconnect audiences and rebuild trust in news organisations through interactive events in public spaces. The authors of this paper experimented with a new format of putting news on stage involving both journalists and actors using theatrical and comic techniques to tell exclusive, …
News on the Street”
As journalists look for different ways to tell stories and rebuild communities, this paper details an action research approach to a unique live journalism event in a public space. While journalism theatre shows have been tried out in recent years, this project physically put the journalists on soapboxes in a town square to tell their stories, and interact directly with the public. By taking an action research approach, it attempted to reintegrate…
A TechnoEthical Framework for Teachers
A TechnoEthical Framework for Teachers (TEFT) is introduced to aid educators in selecting and employing educational technologies in ethically sound and pedagogical sensitive ways in their classrooms. TEFT views technology through three key technoethical lenses or perspectives: instrumental, sociomaterial and existential. The instrumental lens is most familiar to teachers and focuses on the policies and laws governing teachers’ and students’ uses …
AI, Reconciliation, and Settler Teachers’ Mediated Morality
This case study addresses the integration of generative AI (GenAI) within educational practices, particularly in the context of reconciliation and decolonization of curriculum in Canadian schools. The case focuses on a teacher using ChatGPT to generate Cree star stories for a grade 4/5 science unit, aiming to fulfill the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's (TRC) educational calls to action. The study explores the ethical implications of using A…

The Growth of Computer Science Education in Alberta
Computer Science (CS) education is an emergent growth area in schools worldwide. This paper explores how CS education has evolved at the high school level (grades 10–12) in the Canadian province of Alberta over the past decade after a reorganization and curriculum redesign of its Computing Science Education (CSE) program. In partnership with Alberta Education, a complete list of course records was obtained for high school students who had taken C…
Using Structural Equation Modeling to Examine the Relationship Between Preservice Teachers’ Computational Thinking Attitudes and Skills
The growing interest of educational researchers in computational thinking (CT) has led to an expanding literature on assessments of CT skills and attitudes. However, few studies have examined whether CT attitudes influence CT skills. The present study examines the relationship between CT attitudes and CT skills for preservice teachers (PSTs). The Callysto CT test (CCTt) for Teachers was administered to $n\,\,=$ 105 PSTs to measure their CT attitu…
Artificial Intelligence and Teachers’ New Ethical Obligations
Largely thought to be immune from automation, the teaching profession is now being challenged on multiple fronts by new digital infrastructures and smart software that automate pedagogical decision-making and supporting teaching practises. To better understand this emerging and ethically fraught intensification of technologies in today’s classrooms, we asked, “what new ethical obligations are teachers facing as a result of AI technology adoption …
I Felt I Got to Know Everyone”
Journalism has been suffering a crisis of trust in recent years (Robinson 2019; Peters and Broersma 2013) and in order to re-engage with disconnected audiences, media organisations have turned to creative forms of communication (Usher 2018; Barnhurst 2013). Some of these draw on the concept of ‘live journalism, where both journalists and their stories are presented to a live audience. Various examples in the US and Europe have already been examin…
Improving Clinicians’ Implementation of Guidelines to Help Women Stop Smoking in Pregnancy
Smoking in pregnancy remains a public health challenge. Our team developed a comprehensive intervention using the Behaviour Change Wheel to support clinicians' implementation of guidelines on supporting women to stop smoking in pregnancy. Integral to the intervention was a suite of evidence-based video and print materials. This paper describes the rationale and process for developing these materials. Comprehensive mixed methods research was under…

Accountabilities of posthuman research
What constitutes ‘good’ posthuman research? This article offers three dynamics to help assess the value of posthuman-inspired inquiry. We propose that a good posthuman research account should show evidence that the researcher: (1) attended to their own more-than-humanness and made explicit how they interviewed and attuned to the nonhuman things of their inquiry; (2) reassembled resemblings of the posthuman world by inventively weaving and fusing …
News on Stage
Journalism’s various crises have been well-documented, such as the decline in its credibility and active role in the democratic process, but constructive ideas to address them are far and few between. In an age of confused news literacy, this article presents evidence to show how face-to-face journalism might be successful in helping to re-establish its status, authority and truth-telling role in society. It reviews past and present relationships…
Dual Control
At a time when TV and online journalism embraces more moving images filmed from drones than ever before, this article seeks to explore the thoughts and actions of those who produce them. It builds on earlier research into how aerial images impact on the viewer through the lens of ‘quality journalism’ (Adams, 2018). It investigates how drone operators are involved in the journalistic process, what meanings and effects they seek and who controls th…
Whither the school in the age of the algorithm
Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Thief
Aerial filming is ubiquitous in contemporary media and drones have been heralded as “game-changers” in the news industry. However, very little academic research appears to have investigated the claim. This research uses a transnational multiple case study to produce a semiotic and discourse analysis which shows how drone images are being used to produce meaning and whether they present challenges to quality journalism. The article examines the co…
They Go for Gender First”
There have been many recent media reports about the online harassment of women journalists working in technology, particularly the video gaming industry. However, little research has focused on this aspect, by looking at specific occupations, or analysing the implications for women and society. This paper is a feminist study of the experiences of sexist abuse of a sample of women journalists writing about technology. It is a commentary on the res…
Teaching Phenomenological Research and Writing
In this article, we describe our approach and philosophical methodology of teaching and doing phenomenology. The human science seminar that we offer involves participants in the primary phenomenological literature as well as in a variety of carefully engaged writing exercises. Each seminar participant selects a personal phenomenological project that aims at producing a publishable research paper. We show how the qualitative methodology of hermene…

Mental health problems in people living with HIV
Mental health problems continue to be a significant comorbidity for people with HIV infection, even in the era of effective antiretroviral therapy. Here, we report on the changes in the mental health diagnoses based on clinical case reports amongst people with HIV referred to a specialist psychological medicine department over a 24-year period, which include the relative increase in depressive and anxiety disorders, often of a chronic nature, tog…
Visualising future behaviour
In this study, participants ( N = 223) were randomised to visualise snacking on fruit, visualise snacking on biscuit bars or no visualisation, and intentions and attitudes towards fruit and biscuit bars, immediate selection of fruit or biscuit bars and subsequent consumption were measured. No effects of visualising snacking on fruit were found once background variables were taken into account. Visualising snacking on biscuit bars, however, result…
Sport is king 1
There has been a recent interest in research into national media coverage of female sport, particularly single events, but ongoing sporting activities by women are rarely reported. This paper attempts to examine this subject at the local level, looking in general at women's sport and in particular at women's football in the East Midlands region of the UK. Quantitative methods were used to survey local newspapers and radio stations, and interviews…
Speaking with things
We apply our heuristics for ‘interviewing’ non-human research participants to the digital things of qualitative research itself: recording devices, data analysis software, and other sociomaterial concoctions recruited at different stages of contemporary research projects. We suggest that these ‘inorganic organized’ entities participate as co-researchers that inevitably extend but also disrupt research practice and knowledge construction, introduc…

The Phenomenology of Space in Writing Online
In this paper we explore the phenomenon of writing online. We ask, ‘Is writing by means of online technologies affected in a manner that differs significantly from the older technologies of pen on paper, typewriter, or even the word processor in an off‐line environment?’ In writing online, the author is engaged in a spatial complexity of physical, temporal, imaginal, and virtual experience: the writing space, the space of the text, cyber space, e…

Interviewing objects
This article argues the importance of including significant technologies‐in‐use as key qualitative research participants when studying today’s digitally enhanced learning environments. We gather a set of eight heuristics to assist qualitative researchers in ‘interviewing’ technologies‐in‐use (or other relevant objects), drawing on concrete examples from our own qualitative research projects. Our discussion is informed by Actor‐Network Theory and …

A Prospective Study of the Relationship between Specific Language Impairment, Phonological Disorders and Reading Retardation
Language and literacy skills were assessed in 83 8 1/2 -year olds whose language development had been impaired at 4 years of age. Provided that language problems had resolved by age 5 1/2 years, literacy development was normal, but many of the children who still had verbal deficits at 5 1/2 years of age did have reading difficulties and persisting oral language impairments later on. In these children, reading comprehension tended to be poor relat…
Computers in cognitive-behaviour therapy
Computers are having an impact on a variety of areas in psychology. The use of computers in cognitive-behaviour therapy (CBT) has been limited. This paper reviews the application of computers to CBT, presents some current uses and suggestions for future application, particularly in the areas of self-monitoring (behavioural assessment) and self-management (homework). Issues concerning the barriers to the use of computers in CBT are addressed, incl…
III. External Relations
Developments in the external relations policy and law of the European Union are too numerous to describe comprehensively in this note. We have therefore identified and described what we consider to be some of the more significant issues. These are: recent moves towards enlargement, in particular the Union's pre-accession strategy; expansion of the Union's regional co-operation policies; the mid-term review of the Lomé Convention; and progress in …

The Materiality of Learning
The modern practice of schooling is and always has been inextricably intertwined with its materials: from Froebel gifts, Montessori object boxes, and Waldorf architecture, to Madeline Hunter's lesson plan format, the Blackboard learning management system, and Smart Technologies' Interactive Whiteboard.The particular technologies teachers use in the classroom appreciably shape and "influence the formation of learning and affect thinking and theori…
