  • Finding traces of everyday life in unusual places

    Open AccessRuth Emond, Florian Eßer et al.ARTICLEEuropean Journal of Social Work2025Citada por: 1Referências: 3

    Case records hold life-long significance for those who spent their childhoods in looked after care. Across Europe, public inquiries into the care and treatment of children in care have examined the content of records and have highlighted their limitations. This paper presents data from phase one of a wider study; ‘Archiving Residential Children’s Homes in Scotland and Germany (ARCH)’, which undertook content analysis of the archives of two reside…

  • Temporal agency in homelessness

    Open AccessAndrew BurnsARTICLETime & Society2025Referências: 24

    Some scholars have argued that those affected by 'existential' forms of waiting and boredom lack agency, that they lack the capacity to act. This paper seeks to counter these ideas by focussing on the relationships between time and agency in homelessness. Using data drawn from ethnographic fieldwork in Glasgow, Scotland, it shows the ways in which participants used different tactics and strategies to manage their experiences of time and argues th…

  • Learning in and beyond the classroom

    Open AccessMaggie Grant, Andrew Burns et al.ARTICLEChildren & Society2024

    Separated children, seeking protection in a new country unaccompanied by parents or customary caregivers, have the right to education yet many face difficulties accessing appropriate provision. We analysed data from Scotland across different types of provision: one specialist programme for separated children and four areas providing a mixture of mainstream and adapted classes. Drawing on situated learning theory and the concept of communities of …

    The fear of death and dying is a multifaceted and prevalent source of human distress that can cause significant psychological and existential distress, especially at the end of life. Analysing current therapeutic approaches to this issue to identify promising modalities and knowledge gaps could improve end of life experiences and reduce human suffering. In this systematically constructed review, we analyse recent literature to explore treatments …

  • Dynamic, Playful and Productive Literacies

    Michael Cannon, Michelle Cannon et al.ARTICLEChanging English2018

    This paper reflects on recent projects in a variety of media forms, in both formal and informal educational settings, discussing ways of expanding our notions of literacy practices which reflect their place in the wider lived experience of digital culture. We have collected these reflections under three headings. The first of these, Dynamic Literacies, presents an overarching view of literacy as both ideological, following the ‘new literacy studi…

    A programme of archaeological investigation took place on Fin Cop hillfort, in the Derbyshire Peak District, during the summers of 2009 and 2010.

  • Thrills in the dark

    Open AccessAndrew Burns, Andrew BurnARTICLEComunicar2010Referências: 1

    This author deals with the attraction of that feeling of terror generated in the media, especially in cinema, and from the perspective of the controlled emotion behind that fear, pleasure and pain. What is the nature of the fear and pleasure the spectator feels? Why is it important for educators to take account of this connection between the viewer and the film? This subject is treated from film culture as experiecned by young Britons, with an an…

  • Trustworthiness

    Open AccessJulian Le Grand, Richard Ashby Wilson et al.ARTICLEThe Political Quarterly2008Citada por: 1

    Mark Thompson deplores the decline in the public trust of government and of public service institutions such as the BBC. But there has also been a decline in another form of trust: government's trust in the ability of professionals such as doctors and teachers to deliver high quality public services. And, unlike Thompson's type of trust, this decline was inevitable, because it was based on untenable assumptions concerning professional motivation.…

  • Heavy Hero or Digital Dummy? Multimodal Player–Avatar Relations in Final Fantasy 7

    Open AccessAndrew Burns, Andrew Burn et al.ARTICLEVisual Communication2004Citada por: 7Referências: 3

    This article analyses the player–avatar relation in Final Fantasy 7, drawing on multimodality theory to analyse textual structures both in the game and in the discourse of player–interviews and fan writing. It argues that the avatar is a two-part structure, partly designed in conventional narrative terms as a protagonist of popular narrative, and partly as a vehicle for interactive game-play. The former structure is replete with the traditions an…

  • Doing Game Studies

    Open AccessDiane Carr, Gareth Schott et al.ARTICLEMedia International Australia2004Citada por: 1Referências: 7

    The emergence of game studies is provoking a struggle between adapted older disciplines in the effort to forge a new, discrete field of study. This paper reports on a two-year project titled Textuality in Video Games1 and the range of research techniques that were employed in order to begin answering questions about role-play, pleasure, agency and narrative. The paper outlines how narratology and film theory, social psychology and social semiotic…
