Interventions for students with reading difficulties in Grades 4-12
Facilitators and Barriers of Implementing evidence-based Programs Delivered by Teachers in Early Childhood Education
Evidenced-based programs designed for education settings often prove effective under research conditions, but are underexplored in real world contexts, revealing a research-to-practice gap. Understanding teachers’ implementation experiences, including facilitators and barriers, is crucial to inform the future scale-up of effective approaches. This study explored the implementation experiences of early childhood teachers ( n = 7) incorporating a r…
A meta-analysis of self-regulation and digital recreation from birth to adolescence
There is good reason to implicate self-regulation in our digital recreation duration, choices, and behaviours. However, the direction, degree, and diversity of their association is unclear. To offer more robust and nuanced evidence to this issue of acute public concern, the current study presents a comprehensive meta-analysis of the associations between self-regulation and digital recreation from birth to adolescence – consolidating 183 studies r…
Australia’s Ecec workforce pipeline
The significant shortfall of staff in the early childhood education and care (ECEC) workforce identifies an imperative not only to recruit educators but to support ongoing qualifications and career advancement of those within. Indeed, Shaping Our Future, Australia’s workforce strategy for 2022–2031 identifies qualifications and career development as key focus areas. Taking this imperative, we asked Who ? and How many ? within the Australian workf…
Plant and soil responses to ground-mounted solar panels in temperate agricultural systems
In the move to decarbonise energy supplies to meet Net Zero targets, ground-mounted solar farms have proliferated around the world, with uncertain implications for hosting ecosystems. We provide some of the first evidence on the effects of ground-mounted solar panels on plant and soil properties in temperate agricultural systems. We sampled 32 solar farms in England and Wales in summer 2021. Plant cover and aboveground biomass, as well as soil nu…
Rhythm and movement delivered by teachers supports self-regulation skills of preschool-aged children in disadvantaged communities
Self-regulation skills are an important predictor of school readiness and early school achievement. Research identifies that experiences of early stress in disadvantaged households can affect young children's brain architecture, often manifested in poor self-regulatory functioning. While there are documented benefits of coordinated movement activities and music education to improve self-regulation, few interventions have focused exclusively on rh…
Selling Our Youth
Selling Our Youth explores the way the class origins of recent graduates continue to shape their labour market careers and thus to reproduce class privilege and class disadvantage, illustrating how class and gender come together to influence these young adults’ opportunities and choices.
