The demise of subject-specific teacher education in England

In doing so it considers the national policy context and historical developments of education in the country from the late 19th century onwards. It begins by addressing the question “Why no pedagogy in England?” that was first raised by Brian Simon in his paper published over forty years ago. In turn it addresses the response to Simon by David Hamilt…

Trajectories of powerful knowledge and epistemic quality: Analysing the transformations from disciplines across school subjects
This paper outlines the development of a comparative research framework in subject didactics and applies this in the process of analysing the transformations from academic disciplines across different school subjects.

Unsafe drinking water quality in remote Western Australian Aboriginal communities
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is important in the fields of public health and health geography because of its heavy burden on the health system and high cost of treatment in its advanced stages. The causes of CKD are associated with diabetes and hypertension, but in some parts of the world, the disease occurs in the absence of these factors. Researchers identify this condition as CKD of "unknown" causes (CKDu). CKDu is a multi-factored health prob…

Profile characteristics of fake Twitter accounts
In online social networks, the audience size commanded by an organization or an individual is a critical measure of that entity's popularity and this measure has important economic and/or political implications. Such efforts to measure popularity of users or exploit knowledge about their audience are complicated by the presence of fake profiles on these networks. In this study, analysis of 62 million publicly available Twitter user profiles was c…
Justice in a Time of Terror
The war on terror has seen the occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan; the use of torture on detainees in Guantanamo Bay; extension of periods of detention without trial, and increased levels of surveillance and control in the United Kingdom and the United States. Although being fought in the name of justice and democracy, the war on terror seems to have brought about curbs on freedom to citizens of the Western democracies and brutality rather than j…

Rio de Janeiro is known for its wide, sandy beaches; for its exhilarating football; for its bossa-nova and samba rhythms; for the Christ the Redeemer statue which spreads its protective arms over the city; for the friendliness of its people, for carnival and for its year-round party atmosphere. It is also known to be part of one of the most unequal societies in the world, with one of the highest violent crime rates. Visitors are encouraged to enj…
Restorative Justice and Gendered Violence: Diversion or Effective Justice
Although the last few years have seen considerable advances in the theoretical clarification of restorative justice as well as proliferation of programmes putting the ideas into practice, there are still some important questions that remain unresolved. These revolve around the issues of the range of cases and offenders for which restorative justice is appropriate, and the extent to which restorative justice needs to incorporate due process safegu…

Most of Jamaica's tourism development has occured on the north coast, more recently spreading to Negril at the western tip of the Island. Ribbon development, largely associated with tourism, has transformed much of this coastal strip, and proposals for a new resort at Whitehouse, Westmoreland, have raised concerns about thepossible extension of tourism blight to the relatively unspoiled south coast.Jamaica's coastal tourism development has been c…

The View from the Verandah: Prospect, Refuge and Leisure
The verandah, a characteristic feature of Australia architecture, is commonly found in many parts of the world. Introduced into Australia by the British at a time when verandahs were popular both in England and the colonies, these structures were not merely practical responses to climatic conditions. It is argued that beyond the functional considerations of comfort and convenience, verandahs and similar structures are a response to and an express…
