“A Wound That Was Already Festering”
Background: Research that documents the influence of anti-racism programs on teacher practice shows some desired outcomes, including developing critical consciousness to support students of color and educate others about stereotyping; understanding how racial bias affects one’s teaching and relationships with students; and implementing anti-racist approaches in schoolwide policies and practice. At the same time, research on anti-racist profession…
Contextual variables in written assessment feedback in a university-level Spanish program
The ‘situated’ nature of assessment may help to explain why feedback interventions are successful in one setting but not in another. This study reanalyses data from an earlier study (Ducasse & Hill, 2019) using a coherent theory of context, Bronfenbrenner’s ecological framework (1979), to investigate contextual influences on teacher feedback practices and learner responses respectively. Participants comprised 15 beginner, intermediate and advance…
Overcoming Sexual Trauma with Equine Therapy
Veterans endure a variety of mental health concerns due to the common adversities and traumatic events experienced while in the military. However, veterans who receive a mental health diagnosis often do not reach out to healthcare professionals due to the negative stigma associated with the diagnosis. A component of mental health that is not addressed in the military is military sexual trauma (MST). MST is a problem in which an individual experie…
Mu Opioid Receptor Dynamics in Healthy Volunteers with a History of Childhood Maltreatment
Social networks and policy coherence
In this study, we aim to deepen understanding of what it would take to develop the relationships, common understandings, and collective expertise that might support district-wide improvement efforts by examining the implementation of the Common Core and a teacher evaluation policy. Drawing on three years of social network data in three districts, we find that administrators were more likely to be talking together about teacher evaluation than the…
Investigating the Role of Instructional Rounds in the Development of Social Networks and District-Wide Improvement
In this article, we explore how organizational routines involving instructional rounds—collective, structured observations and reflections on classroom practice—might contribute to the development of social networks among administrators and support a common, district-wide focus on instruction. Building on work on communities of practice, we consider some of the mechanisms through which rounds might contribute to the development of the relationshi…
Developing a comprehensive, empirically based research framework for classroom-based assessment
This paper presents a comprehensive framework for researching classroom-based assessment (CBA) processes, and is based on a detailed empirical study of two Australian school classrooms where students aged 11 to 13 were studying Indonesian as a foreign language. The framework can be considered innovative in several respects. It goes beyond the scope of earlier models in addressing a number of gaps in previous research, including consideration of t…
Buffy's Voice
This paper studies the narrative use of popular music in the television show Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997–2003) in order to open the primary television text to feminist analysis. Perhaps in no other way are the implications and contradictions of presenting BtVS's feminist narrative on television more obvious than that revealed in the analysis of the popular music soundtrack
S/He's a rebel
This essay explores how the vampires Spike and Angel in the television program Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997–2003) offer new ways, including feminist readings, within which to reappraise the Rebel without a Cause archetype. Areas discussed include the juvenile delinquent as ‘monstrous other’ in today's society, youth culture's perpetual quest for meaning and identity, and associated popular music narratives
Male Providers” and “Responsible Mothers”
This article explores the links between rural livelihood change and gender identities and relations in the Philippines. To bring the feminist and agrarian scholarly agendas closer together, I present ethnographic accounts from Naga City, Bicol, to examine how daily discourses and practices of livelihood change are implicated in (re)producing social identities along gender lines, as well as class and geographical lines. The first part of the artic…
The gender dimension of the agrarian transition
Based on parallel field research conducted in two peri-urban villages in the cities of Naga and Valencia, the Philippines, this article deploys gender analysis to understand livelihood diversification in the context of agrarian change. In analyzing the role of state organizations and NGOs in (re)producing gender differences, hierarchies, roles and identities within agrarian settings, it brings poststructuralist and postcolonial theory into conver…
Size and strength
This article describes the development and validation of a test of vocabulary size and strength. The rst part of the article sets out the theoretical rationale for the test, and describes how the size and strength constructs have been conceptualized and operationalized. The second part of the article focusses on the process of test validation, which involved the testing of the hypotheses implicit in the test design, using both unidimensional and …
Discourse and Assessment
Many contemporary currents in applied linguistics have favored discourse studies within assessment; there have been calls for cross-fertilization with other areas within applied linguistics, critiques of the positivist tradition within language testing research, and the growing impact of Conversation Analysis (CA) and sociocultural theory. This chapter focuses on the resulting increase in discourse-based studies of oral proficiency assessment tec…
Mental health training and development needs of community agency staff
Emphasis has long been placed in UK national policy on providing 'seamless' mental health services to meet both the health and social care needs of service users. While attention has been paid to the training required by specialist mental health and primary care staff in order to achieve this, the needs of other community agency staff have received less attention. The present article describes a study designed to identify the training needs of st…
Working with traumatic material
Preparation for the opening of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., in April 1993, exposed workers to potentially disturbing personal artifacts of Holocaust victims and other reminders of the horrors of the Holocaust. The process of psychological consultation is described, and the resultant approaches to interventions designed to lower distress among museum workers and volunteers are discussed
