Stakeholder alignment to government reform
High-quality Professional Experience (PEx) placements are central to the preparation of ‘classroom ready’ graduate teachers in Australia. However, there are frequent suggestions from the Australian Government that PEx is not as effective as it could be. Perennial PEx concerns raised in government reviews include: the need for strong partnerships between higher education providers and schools; the quality of ITE candidates and their suitability to…
Snapchat and affective inequalities
Gendered power relations and cyber-objectification can be produced through Snapchat in schooling contexts. The research illustrates how social media circulates affect in an Australian high school setting. While “Snapchatting” can evoke joy, it can produce gendered inequities. This research details affective inequalities associated with Snapchat use. Affective inequalities (“lad culture”, “rape culture” and “everyday sexism”) are produced through …
A Phenomenographic Research Study of Students' Conceptions of Mobile Learning
This article aims to identify different ways of using mobile devices in students' learning in higher education. This qualitative research presents the findings from a phenomenographic research of students' conceptions of mobile learning (m-learning) in higher education. A cohort of 16 students from four universities of Bangladesh took part in semi-structured interviews to explore their in-depth understandings and experiences of m-learning. The fi…
Snapchat and digitally mediated sexualised communication
Snapchat, released in 2011, is embedded in the youth culture of advanced capitalist societies. Theorising Snapchat from a socio-material ontology, we explore the application’s capacity to evoke the gendered politics of networked affect. Dipping into the conceptual toolbox of Deleuzoguattarian philosophy, we map how affect is distributed through bodies and objects (mobile technologies, the Snapchat application and human bodies) in socio-material a…
Snapchat’, youth subjectivities and sexuality
Research on youth subjectivities and disappearing media is still in its infancy. Ephemeral technologies such as Snapchat, Frankly and Wickr offer young people opportunities for discursive agency, harnessing teenage discourses of social positioning. These media facilitate social mobility in teen peer contexts by providing a medium for dynamic and shifting relationships. The transmission of digital images can enable a social flexibility that has a …
Riding the Hype Cycle
This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2013. Virtual Worlds are not “dead and gone” – far from it. If the 3rd Global Conference in Experiential Learning in Virtual Worlds taught its delegates anything, it was that virtual worlds are on the cusp of an exciting, resurging and impending upswing. A large variety of industries are captured within this eBook—architecture, computer programming, ethics, information science, litera…
Real thinking with virtual hats
Role-plays in a virtual world hold tremendous potential for higher education because they allow synchronous, immersive participation by students located across the globe. They also have the added advantage of allowing students to adopt roles and carry out tasks that are not possible in the real world. In this article, a project that involved pre-service teachers carrying out role-plays based on de Bono's Six Thinking Hats framework is presented. …
An Australian and New Zealand scoping study on the use of 3D immersive virtual worlds in higher education
This article describes the research design of, and reports selected findings from, a scoping study aimed at examining current and planned applications of 3D immersive virtual worlds at higher education institutions across Australia and New Zealand. The scoping study is the first of its kind in the region, intended to parallel and complement a number of studies conducted in other parts of the world. Results from a sector-wide questionnaire adminis…
If the Food Looks Dodgy I Dinnae Eat It
This paper examines how young teenagers living in socio-economically disadvantaged families perceive everyday food and eating practices within the home. From in-depth interviews with 36 Scottish teenagers aged 13-14 years, we analysed teenagers' accounts of contemporary 'family meals'. We found that food and eating practices were negotiated amidst complex family arrangements with extended, resident and non-resident kin. Parents were often reporte…
Using Diaries for Social Research. - by Alaszewski, A
Alaszewski, A. Using Diaries for Social Research. 2006 London : Sage viii+136pp £20.99 ISBN 0 7619 7291 9 (pbk) I recall attending a workshop organised by the ESRC on diary research, back in the early 1990s, and coming away with a great deal of enthusiasm about the value that diaries could have as a research method. This was despite the difficulties inherent in this method mentioned at the workshop, and elsewhere, and this may have been a reason …

Cochlear Implants
Cochlear implantation is a relatively new procedure, which has already had significant impact on the lives of many profoundly deaf children and adults, in providing useful hearing to those unable to benefit significantly from hearing aids. After 16 years of cochlear implantation in the United Kingdom, there is now a body of evidence covering a range of outcomes, much of which covers perceptual and linguistic outcomes. This study looks at the impa…
Young teenagers' perceptions of their own and others' bodies

Living with chronic illness in the family setting
This paper discusses the ways in which family practices and family relationships interact with the demands of diet-related chronic illness. It uses a study that examined the management of food and diet in families where one member had been diagnosed with one of two medical conditions: coronary heart disease (CHD) and coeliac disease (CD). The data revealed a propensity for family members, especially female partners/wives, to see the tasks and act…
Rural Consumers' Attitudes toward the Internet for Information Search and Product Purchase
Rogers's innovation diffusion theory guided this research on rural consumers' attitudes toward using the Internet for product information search and purchase of consumer products. The purpose of the study was to examine the effects of hands‐on trial of retail Web sites on attitudes toward Internet shopping. The sample included 258 rural consumers who had not previously used the Internet to make a product purchase. Demographic variables were relat…
Starting Well
In this article we present a critique of a series of public policy documents that aim at improvement in health for the general population, particularly families, but fail to recognize or appreciate the implications of gender for the everyday and the long-term experiences of family members. Drawing upon considerations of gender, families, health, time and space, and previous theoretical work (McKie et al., 2002), we propose the concept of 'healths…
(Inter)Dependence, Needs and Care
In this article we examine the tensions between feminist and disability studies perspectives on care.We argue that an emancipatory model of care is one that must address these tensions. In developing this model we consider the notions of (inter)dependence and need across the lifecourse. Drawing on the work of Fraser (1989), we propose that the notion of 'needscape' can be used to construct a 'discourse bridge' that will mediate between the disabi…
Shadow Times
In this article we explore temporal and spatial frameworks for analysing the experience of combining caring for children with participation in paid work. We highlight the pressure to undertake paid employment routinely, which places particular strains upon people who are most likely to have to combine caring and working. The authors assert that mothers continue to have the main responsibility for the organization, if not the conduct, of caring wo…

Gender, Caring and Employment in Britain
Employment and social policies continue to be based upon a gender template that assumes women, especially mothers, are or should be natural carers. Invariably, policies that seek to promote women's entry to paid work do so by facilitating their management and conduct of caring work, thus reinforcing the gender template. In addition, contemporary debates around concepts of citizenship emphasise the obligation to paid employment but fail to tackle …

Gender Roles and Food in Families
This chapter examines the ways in which gendered roles and responsibilities are understood and negotiated within the family setting with specific reference to the production and consumption of food and meals. It is based upon a study which examined the effect on the family of one member’s change in diet, and focused upon specific kinds of change in diet: a slimming diet, becoming a vegetarian or being advised to change diet as part of treatment f…
I Always Do What They Tell Me To Do
Quality of life issues increasingly have been the focus of research in the field of disabilities. Quality of life has been described by some researchers as encompassing several key factors; many of the descriptions have included the extent to which opportunities for the exercise of choice are present in one's life as a significant element of the construct. A case study was conducted to document the perceptions of two older adults with severe lear…

Parents'talk to their infants
This study examines two theories concerning the nature of parents' talk to their young children. The Differential Experience Hypothesis posits that mothers' and fathers' speech styles are distinguishable and each serves a different function in the child's language development. In contrast the Context Hypothesis argues that observed differences between parents are the product of the different contexts in which parent-toddler interaction is examine…

Cet article fait part des resultats d'une etude menee dans le sud-est de l'Angleterre sur les vegetariens et les consommateurs de produits complets, dietetiques ou organiques. Les resultats de l'etude montrent que dans chaque cas de regime alternatif, il y a une forte tendance a ce que les taux de participation a des activites typiques au milieu cultuel soient plus eleves que chez les personnes qui ne suivent pas ce genre de regime. Bien que plus…
