David Hemer – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2023
Whilst there has been significant focus on STEM in Australian education for several years, there has been very little focus on the integration of Digital Technologies (especially coding) with the other STEM disciplines. Similarly, high school mathematics education remains largely a standalone discipline. This paper describes a full year…

Mellita Jones; Vince Geiger; Garry Falloon; Sharon Fraser; Kim Beswick; Benjamin Holland-Twining; Vesife Hatisaru – International Journal of Science Education, 2025
STEM education is viewed as being vital for economic prosperity and productivity; and can contribute productively to changing technological, economic, and social demands of the twenty-first Century. However, there is limited consensus on how STEM education is understood and taught, and inadequate discussion around its role in addressing global…

Woo, Karen; Falloon, Garry – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2023
Coding is increasingly popular in schools around the world and is often taught by non-specialist teachers as an integrated task with other subject areas. In this article, we explore the relationship between computer science (CS) concepts and students' multimodal expression in a coding animated narrative (CAN) task in the context of an integrated…

Somerville, Margaret; Woods, Annette; Duhn, Iris; Rautio, Pauliina; Powell, Sarah; McConnell-Imbriotis, Alison; Galvez, Sarita – International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education (QSE), 2021
This paper addresses the entanglements of the earth's becoming in a multi site cross hemisphere study of the infinite moments of young children's world making, recorded in multimodal videos, still images, and children's productions. The postqualitative project was informed by new materialist and posthuman theorising. The researchers conducted…

Karen Woo; Garry Falloon – Australian Educational Researcher, 2025
Coding and computational thinking are being hailed as the new literacy for the twenty-first century, and have become increasingly common in schools world-wide. At the same time, the sector is facing a global shortage of technology teachers, and technology lessons are frequently being delivered by non-specialist teachers. Therefore, some have…

Hubbard, Jane; Russo, James; Livy, Sharyn – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2022
Making accurate judgements and interpretations about student growth and progress in mathematics can be problematic when using open-ended assessments. This study reports on the development of a class-based assessment instrument and marking key designed to assess Year 2 students' mathematics competence to reflect their learning of mathematics…

Hemer, David – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2020
This paper describes an investigation looking at the underlying mathematics of poker machines. The aim of the investigation is for students to get an appreciation of how poker machines are designed to ensure that in the long-term players will inevitably lose when playing. The first part of this paper describes how students can model a simple poker…

Kewalramani, Sarika; Palaiologou, Ioanna; Dardanou, Maria; Allen, Kelly-Ann; Phillipson, Sivanes – Australasian Journal of Early Childhood, 2021
This Australian study examines whether and how technologies such as Artificially Intelligent (AI) toys in a home-based setting might socially and emotionally support children with diverse needs through play. Building on the concept of 'emotional capital', and employing a design-based research approach, parents during the COVID-19 lockdown periods…

Chandra, Vinesh; Lloyd, Margaret – Australian Journal of Teacher Education, 2020
An ongoing problem for teacher education institutions is bridging the gap between theory and practice and offering authentic experiences to challenge preservice teachers' pedagogical decision-making. Preservice practicums simulate teaching and can, at best, offer controlled experiences in familiar settings. This restricts the opportunities for…

Murcia, Karen; Pepper, Coral; Joubert, Mathilda; Cross, Emma; Wilson, Sinead – Issues in Educational Research, 2020
We present research that explored digital coding in an Australian early years learning centre and how it impacted on a focus group of 3 and 4-year-old children's creativity. The questions that guided the design experimental method were: (1) how do young children develop and demonstrate creativity when learning through play with digital coding…

Blackley, Susan; Howell, Jennifer – Australian Journal of Teacher Education, 2019
In this paper, we use our qualitative research notes and observations to portray a model for integrated STEM education and summarise primary school students' typical and recurring ways in which they engaged with each new robot. The purpose of this paper is two-fold: first, to unpack key elements of the Australian Curriculum: Technologies in order…

Taylor, Emmeline – Journal of Education Policy, 2018
Anxieties relating to the health, safety and security of schoolchildren have been met with a variety of surveillance apparatus in schools internationally. Drawing on findings from a content analysis of newspaper reports relating to drug testing in Australian schools, this article seeks to excavate the ways in which the media shapes, informs,…

Steel, Gillian; Rose, Miranda; Eadie, Patricia – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2016
Purpose: The purpose of this research was to provide a comprehensive description of complement-clause production in children with language impairment. Complement clauses were examined with respect to types of complement structure produced, verb use, and both semantic and syntactic accuracy. Method: A group of 17 children with language impairment…

Ladwig, James G.; McPherson, Amy – Curriculum Inquiry, 2017
"Ability" is one of the most common concepts underpinning education. Generally, "ability" is central to notions of a meritocratic society. More specifically, schools are allocated the right to define, categorise and label students according to their ability. While there has been ample discussion of the role of ability in the…

Mathew, Mili; Yuen, Ivan; Demuth, Katherine – First Language, 2018
Children are known to use different types of referential gestures (e.g., deictic, iconic) from a very young age. In contrast, their use of non-referential gestures is not well established. This study investigated the use of "stroke-defined non-referential" 'beat' gestures in a story-retelling and an exposition task by twelve 6-year-olds,…
