Weaving stories of strength: Ethically integrating Indigenous content in Teacher education and professional development programmes
Teachers have professional obligations to incorporate Indigenous perspectives in their teaching but face challenges due to Western-centric priorities in schools, denying students the benefits gained from Indigenous knowledge. A study conducted with 16 Indigenous educators from Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the United States offers unique insights into negotiating this problem. The Weaving Stories of Strength project synthesises Indigenous a…
From yarning circles to zoom: Navigating sensitive issues within indigenous education in an online space
Inclusive Indigenous Education is geared towards shifting worldviews, sharing agendas, and preparing social-justice-oriented educators. With this comes the expectation that pre-service teachers will leave supportive education programs prepared to teach sensitive issues related to Indigeneity. Yet, with the onset of COVID-19, systemic changes were made to accommodate demands of online learning, requiring initial teacher educators to consider how o…
Preservice teacher perceptions of preparedness for teaching: Insights from survey research exploring the links between teacher professional standards and agency
In this article we explore the use of teacher professional standards in an initial teacher education programme and preservice teacher perceptions of their preparedness for teaching using a survey of 54 first‐ and second‐year preservice teachers in a graduate‐entry programme. The survey asked the preservice teachers to respond to 16 questions based on professional standards as well as their knowledge of student learning, professional identity and …
The influence of transition prompt wording on response informativeness and rapidity of disclosure in child forensic interviews
Investigators hope to elicit disclosure or other case-related (informative) responses quickly when transitioning to the substantive phase of forensic interviews. Interviewing protocols suggest directly asking the child about the purpose of the interview to obtain early disclosure. However, interviewers sometimes rephrase scripted transition prompts, which has unknown consequences. The present study examined the effects that the first transition p…
Social awareness and engagement in undergraduate music students: Generating a foundation for curriculum decisions
Tertiary music institutions, like universities generally, are increasingly recognising the value and importance of a curriculum that fosters social awareness and social engagement in students. This article reports on a mixed-methods research project that investigated the nature and extent of social awareness and engagement among undergraduate students at one Australian tertiary music institution. Through a survey methodology, the research sought …
Commentary response: Smartphone use and parenting: re‐stratifying the multiverse for families of young children
Concerns have been raised that smartphones may harm children and families. Arguably, risk‐driven discourses are not always evidence‐based. This is a problem, because blanket assumptions of risk drowns out nuanced empirical questions of what constitutes “good” parenting when it comes to smartphone use, and for whom. Here we outline three logical missteps which have contributed to the deficit zeitgeist—ignoring context, misinterpreting effect, and …
Tuning into the real effect of smartphone use on parenting: A multiverse analysis
BACKGROUND: Concerns have been raised regarding the potential negative impacts of parents' smartphone use on the parent-child relationship. A scoping literature review indicated inconsistent effects, arguably attributable to different conceptualizations of parent phone use and conflation of phone use with technological interference. METHODS: Based on a sample of n = 3, 659 parents collected in partnership with a national public broadcaster, we co…
Naplan discourses: A systematic review after the first decade
Coming to know collectively: A gothic tale of method, metaphor and madness in the academy
This experimental article provides an immanent alternative to the neo-positivist outcomes-driven turn currently cannibalising the Academy. It offers a stitched together, multiphrenic creature, formed in darkness, gore and toil; a co-generative performance embodying coming-to-know as a process of creative co-inquiry. It writes into existence an ungainly and seductive creature who is the speciation of a curious collective who met regularly to explo…
