Access to senior secondary science and mathematics
This research investigates access to senior school science and mathematics subjects offered in the final year of secondary schooling. Using data from the most populous Australian state of New South Wales, we examine whether stratification occurs in access to science and mathematics curricula. We find that the opportunity to study these subjects differs by key school characteristics, including location, socioeconomic composition and school sector.…
Olympian women’s representation in U.S. newspapers has improved according to a content analysis of three local dailies
A content analysis of news coverage of the Tokyo 2021 Summer Olympics (N = 561) found that three major U.S. dailies ran more stories about women’s than men’s sports, confirming the trend recorded in networked television prime-time programming toward a finally adequate representation of female athletes. The findings suggest that efforts to foster gender equality can help challenge gender stereotypes in the media. The regional differences detected …
Access to and equity in the curriculum in the Australian government secondary school system
One of the main aims of schooling both in Australia and internationally is to provide equitable access to education for all children regardless of their social background or the schools they attend. A key part of this aim should be reflected in access to the curriculum, particularly in government schools, which in Australia enrol the majority of students and are affected by policies of marketisation and school choice. The purpose of this paper is…
School equity, marketisation and access to the Australian senior secondary curriculum
This study examines how access to the academic curriculum creates patterns of inequality in Australian schools. Examining students’ access to the academic curriculum gives an indication of how schooling is structured to support students in pursuing higher education opportunities. To date, little research attention has been given to the opportunities schools offer students to access the academic curriculum in order to enter university. Using admin…
The spatial implications of academic achievement in Year 12
Rurality is an identified point of disadvantage in measures such as the Index of Community Socio-Educational Advantage (ICSEA) and school resourcing models. However, socioeconomic disadvantage is commonly used as an explanation for lower average student achievement in rural locations. Thus, policies are often directed towards reducing disadvantage associated with socioeconomic status, and rurality is overlooked. This research tests the validity o…
How Smartphones Have Changed the Job for Better and for Worse—The Experiences of Reporters
Newspaper reporters now have to produce stories for online and print, with fewer people and less time to complete work. How is it then that they are getting their work done? Interviews with reporters at three large newspapers in the U.S. about the past 10 years in the newspaper business demonstrated that the biggest change that has occurred from a technological standpoint is the introduction of smartphones. This paper explores the adoption of sma…
Part‐Time Employment and Problem Behaviors
This study explores the impact of adolescent part-time work experience on problem behaviors in the South Korean context. To achieve this, propensity score matching (PSM) analyses were employed based on data from the Korean Education Employment Panel (KEEP). Results indicate that adolescents' part-time employment during their secondary school years had significantly undesirable effects on drinking and smoking, even after preexisting differences be…
