Age moderates associations between dementia worry and subjective cognition
The present study assessed whether dementia worry is associated with adults' subjective cognitive difficulties, and whether any associations are moderated by age. Participants were 477 adults aged 18-90 years. They completed standard, subjective measures of dementia worry and everyday cognitive difficulties (i.e. attention, language, verbal and visual-spatial memory, and visual-perceptual ability). Moderated regression analyses included dementia …
Educators’ experiences of pivoting online
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic meant that online teaching in higher education became the default.

This paper presents a small international case study, investigating the experiences of a diverse group o…

Educational issues for children of itinerant seasonal farm workers
Although many Australian children change schools during the course of a school year, the children of itinerant seasonal farm workers can move residences as well as schools on a regular basis, often two or three times annually.

The paper uses a case study approach to discuss some of the issues that affect the literacy learning of the …
Boys Performing English
This article explores the gender dynamics of boys' responses to one particular aspect of English teaching: oral performance work. It focuses on the possibility that the requirement to perform publicly in dramatic and other oral tasks may be an important factor in the rejection of English by many boys, and may contribute to boys' relatively poor achievement in English. The article provides a study of boys' engagement in English oral activities in …
