O'Donovan, Denis – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2006

Research-based understandings of gender in schools have been on the defensive in Australia and elsewhere…

Newman, Mairette – Education Research and Perspectives, 2005
The view that values play a crucial role in how principals conceptualise and interpret school leadership is not new.

The results of such conflicts are unique regulatory regimes emerging from distinctive processes that redefine the terms and limits of natural resource use. In…
