Direct linkGreen, Bill – English in Education, 2023

Yandell, John; Mahamed, Faduma; Ziad, Soumeya – Changing English: Studies in Culture and Education, 2022
Our starting point is provided by two accounts of observed lessons. The two lessons happened, at more or less the same time, in the same English department in an East London secondary school. Both lessons, observed by the second- and third-named authors, involved the shared reading of the same novel. We are interested in the difference between…

Goodacre, Lewis – Changing English: Studies in Culture and Education, 2022
This essay explores an English lesson I taught to a Year 9 class in which students drew upon and narrativised personal experiences. I describe and examine the literary sociability of the lesson, by which I mean the social and cultural exchanges that give shape to students' reading and writing. In doing so, I demonstrate the need for policymakers…

Shann, Steve; Macken-Horarik, Mary; Edwards, CeCe – Changing English: Studies in Culture and Education, 2021
What do we see when we observe an excellent English lesson? What's going on in the room? Perhaps what stands out is a collaborative making of meanings inspired by stimulating texts. Perhaps what's most important is an ever-deepening knowledge about, and facility with, the many ways that language works. Maybe what we're seeing is a carefully…

"Divisive concepts" legislation, which seeks to restrict teaching about topics like race, gender, and sexuality, for example, has proliferated across the United States, creating confusion and challenges for students, teachers, and teacher educators who want to include discussion of complex topics in their classrooms (Ervin & Gannon,…

McBride, Cherise; Smith, Anna; Kalir, Jeremiah Holden – English Teaching: Practice and Critique, 2023
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to re-center playfulness as a humanizing approach in teacher education. As teachers navigate the current moment of heightened control, surveillance, and systemic inequity, these proposed moves in teacher education can be transgressive. Rather than play as relegated to childhood or infancy, what does it look…

Audiobooks have been growing in popularity over the last decade. Although researchers have increasingly recognised the value of audiobooks as rich multimodal texts that support literacy engagement in classrooms, there have been few detailed pictures of classroom practice related to audiobooks. In this practitioner narrative, a secondary English…

The Australian Curriculum provides a warrant for all subject English teachers to enact the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Cultures Cross-curriculum priority (CCP). This priority is 'designed for all students to engage in reconciliation, respect, and recognition of the world's oldest continuous living cultures' (ACARA, n.d.-a).…

Seton, Henry – Educational Leadership, 2021
As more classrooms return to in-person instruction, many teachers are longing for lessons built around student discussion. Student discourse frequently floundered over the past year amidst inconsistent camera usage, weak microphones, internet lags, and the overall awkwardness of virtual classrooms. The Socratic seminar is a particularly seductive…

Mannix, Timothy – English in Australia, 2018
The study of English, like the teaching of English, is bound with thematic concerns of love. Notions of love, and the range of experiences that come with them, coalesce in learning spaces when both teachers and students analyse texts, unpack social issues, and construct arguments in daily teaching and learning practice. Within the broader social…
