The first part of this article considers the challenge of supporting pupils to write creatively about the natural world.

Drawing on the scholarly work of John Dixon, Robert Eaglestone and others, the ar…

The experiment is theorised and assessed in a non-reductive way that offers future creative possibilit…

Neoliberals often refer to Adam Smith's The wealth of nations (WN) but this paper focuses on Smith's equally significant The theory of…
