  • The role of teacher agency in realising EdTech 's potential to reduce teacher workload and improve teacher retention

    Open AccessJohn Gordon, Kristi Nourie et al.ARTICLEBritish Educational Research…2026References: 38

    This article considers how EdTech platform design and EdTech policy implementation in schools combine to contribute to rather than alleviate teachers' workload, constraining professional agency in ways which may contribute to teachers' dissatisfaction and the current teacher retention crisis. Workload has been cited as a leading reason for teachers leaving the profession. Successive OECD Teaching and International Learning Surveys (TALIS) identif…

    This article presents a pedagogical stylistics of intertextuality in interactive literary study talk. It analyses case study data representing one higher education seminar discussion, where a tutor and student interpret a focal text through reference to diverse intertexts. The article asks: How do participants enact intertextual literary analysis in conversation? How are intertextual voices introduced? How do intertextual voices relate to focal t…

  • America's Strategy-Resource Mismatch

    Timothy Bonds, Michael Mazarr et al.BOOKAmerica's Strategy-Resource…2019

    In order to defend itself and its national interests, and to maintain the trust of allies as a reliable security guarantor, the United States must match its national security policies with the resources available to support them. This report discusses the specific gaps between the stated strategic and defense policies of the United States and the resources and capabilities that would be required to implement those policies successfully.

    Reductions currently under way make it clear that NATO faces more than a simple, short-term budget squeeze. The longer trend will have a serious impact on Europe's ability to deploy and sustain power

    It is a good question. 1 Based solely on the king’s-evidence testimony of an obvious liar, Fagin is charged as accessory to the murder of Nancy, a prostitute. Within little more than a week after the murder, he is taken, tried, convicted, and executed. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.

  • Underkill

    David C Gompert, Stuart E Johnson et al.DATASETPsycEXTRA Dataset2009

    During the first few years of their occupation of Iraq, U.S. military forces proved to be better at killing insurgents than at defeating the insurgents by convincing the Iraqi people to turn against them. As a consequence, the insurgency grew despite its losses, the population's tolerance for the U.S. occupation shrank, and U.S. casualties mounted. At a certain point, a majority of all Iraqis believed that the use of force against U.S. troops was…

  • True Soundings

    The recent OFSTED report (December 2007) on poetry in schools is welcome because there has been no similar account of the state of poetry at all stages in the curriculum for over twenty years. The

  • X-treme Group Analysis

    Open AccessJohn Gordon, Sharman Harding et al.ARTICLEGroup Analysis2005

    Setting up analytic psychotherapy groups on secure forensic wards is a complicated and arduous process. Once established, clinical work is even more difficult because emotional contact with forensic patients places extreme pressure on the countertransference. We review aspects of the psychoanalytic theory of countertransference related to increasingly serious levels of psychopathology in order to clarify why this should be so. Examples of clinica…

  • The Army’s Dilemma

    John Gordon, Jerry M Sollinger et al.ARTICLEThe US Army War College Quarterly…2004

    G iven its performance in Operation Iraqi Freedom, the Army's stock should be at an all-time high. It carried out a bold plan that was both operationally and logistically challenging against a larger if unmotivated force. It routed the Iraqi army and adapted well to the unexpected attacks by the fedayeen. It also fought well in the cities, often a killing field for attackers. It took few casualties, just over 100 dead before the declared end of h…

  • An Alternative Future Force

    Peter A Wilson, John Gordon et al.ARTICLEThe US Army War College Quarterly…2003

    R ecent operations in Iraq highlight the need for the Army's leadership to rethink major aspects of its transformation strategy. While the threeweek period of combat operations that toppled the regime illuminates one set of implications, the continued and contested postwar operations illuminate another. Furthermore, the insights emerging from Iraq are not isolated, but part of a growing body of operational knowledge gleaned from post-Cold War ope…

  • Dao' as a Nickname

    Stephen C Angle, John Gordon et al.ARTICLEAsian Philosophy2003

    Few would deny that the Dao De Jing is a puzzling text.One puzzle that has particularly vexed interpreters in recent years is how to understand the central term of the text, ‘dao.’ The difficulty can be brought out by considering the first lines of two consecutive chapters: [41] When the highest type of men hear the way, with diligence they are able to practice it.... [42] The way gives birth to the one....‘Way’—the ubiquitous and appropriate tra…

  • The Resurgence of Applied Anthropology in a Post-Exotic World

    John GordonARTICLEHuman Organization1998

    As the end of the twentieth century nears, one of the fastest growing areas within Australian social science is applied anthropology. The recent demand for applied anthropologists is, in part, due to the consequences of the Native Title Act and the need for anthropological advice to support land claim submissions. It is also a consequence of Australia's geographic location in Asia and the substantial demand for consultant social scientists in thi…
