Teaching computational thinking to children in head start classrooms
Despite efforts to broaden participation in computer science and its related fields, there exist stark disparities in participation in computer related fields by gender, race/ethnicity, and socio-economic status. One approach to combat these disparities is to expose children to computing concepts early, to provide them with the foundational skills needed to be successful in later courses. This article reports on the results of a randomized contro…

Co‐Development of the CoMUni Intervention
INTRODUCTION: Each academic year, numerous students experience mental health problems. Despite this, many avoid seeking any form of help, which can lead to problems worsening. This paper reflects upon the co-development process of an intervention which aimed to increase help-seeking behaviours in undergraduate students. METHODS: Online workshops were conducted with a student co-production team, including the completion of tasks designed to incorp…
Living a ‘shadow life’
This paper explores forms of disorientation that affected UK workers furloughed within the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme during the COVID‐19 pandemic. It draws on Sara Ahmed's queer phenomenology, the work of social and cultural geographers, and the accounts of four furloughed workers drawn from a wider study of 35 participants (see Jones, 2023). The paper details how the loss of a worker's agency through the suspension of their work life led …
Coding Readiness Assessment
Coding and computational thinking (CT) are important skills to include in early childhood education. Measuring these vital skills in preschool-age children can be challenging. We modified the TechCheck-PreK assessment, an unplugged measure of CT for 3-to-5-year-old children, to increase reliability and to add foundational coding concepts. We created the Coding Readiness Assessment (CRA) from a subset of nine TechCheck-PreK items and twelve new it…
Language Policies and Ideologies for Socialization and Identity-Building in U.S. Schools
Although multilingualism is a major issue in educational policies, especially in states hosting a high number of newcomer immigrant students, there is limited research exploring the experiences of a multilingual group of newcomer students and how they use language in schools. This article draws on 112 interviews with students from an immigrant background across four high schools in Arizona and New York. We illuminate the role of language in shapi…
Feeling in Suspension
The COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent UK lockdown were a catalyst for mass waiting. This paper will focus on a phenomenon, a particular form of waiting observed in shopping queues during lock down in the North East of England. Waiting practices formed through the COVID-19 pandemic have opened new forms of feeling, requiring new forms of articulation. As such the paper experiments with language and form speculatively describing feelings and tempora…
Using participatory and creative research methods to develop and pilot an informative game for preparing children for blood tests
Background: . We sought to develop and evaluate a prototype “tool” to help prepare children for having their blood taken, a procedure most feared by children. Methods: A user-experience design, using creative arts was utilized. Twenty-three children aged 4–12 with haematological conditions participated. Phase 1 involved children developing a blood preparatory “tool” alongside an illustrator. Phase 2 involved children trialing a paper prototype of…
Knowing, Being, and Doing
This qualitative inquiry explored the processes and practices of collaboration as experienced by a group of Australian multidisciplinary Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal health workers. Each worker had participated, for a period of 2 to 5 years, in an Australian Government-funded project in which a range of health initiatives led to improved access to cancer services by Aboriginal communities in a rural region of South Eastern Australia. Initiatives…

Getting It Right
This article proposes a theoretical framework for integrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander knowledges in Australian social work education as a central focus of the Getting it Right: Creating Partnerships for Change project. This article presents analysis from a literature review to suggest ways Australian schools of social work can adapt their curriculum in order to ensure that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander knowledges and practic…
The Rhythms of Latin America
This innovative Handbook draws together and reflects on the specific methodological challenges that an international business scholar is likely to face when undertaking a qualitative research project.
Self‐harm by people with learning difficulties
A review of the literature exploring self‐harm highlights variations in the way it is understood. A marked difference in approach appears to relate to the presence of a learning difficulty in the person utilizing self‐harm. Linkage with abuse has been given credence as one possible explanation for self‐harming behaviour in the general population and yet has received little consideration within literature regarding people with learning difficultie…
