Alexandra Morrison; Adam M. Wellstead; Helen Dickinson – Teaching Public Administration, 2024
The use of algorithms and automation of public services is not new, but in recent years there has been a step change in processing power and a decrease in the price of these technologies, which means we are seeing more widespread use. These advances are reframing our perception of what matters in ways that impact the ethical dimensions of…

Arantes, Janine Aldous; Vicars, Mark – Learning, Media and Technology, 2023
In the recent Australian 2021 census, the socio-technical construct of algorithmically driven decision-making processes made LGBTQI+ data as a category of diversity, inclusion and belonging an absent presence. In this paper, we position the notion of 'data justice' in relation to the entrenchment of inequalities and exclusion of LGBTQI+ lives and…

Integrating Mathematics and Digital Technologies: A Practical Teaching Approach Using the 3C Model
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Peter Curtis; Brett Moffett; David A. Martin – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2024
In this article, the authors explore how the 3C Model can be used to integrate other curriculum areas with mathematics, namely digital technologies. To illustrate the model, they provide a practical example of a teaching sequence. T he 3C Model is designed to create opportunities for applying reasoning and problem-solving skills and learning…

Arantes, Janine Aldous – Australian Educational Researcher, 2023
Recent negotiations of 'data' in schools place focus on student assessment and NAPLAN. However, with the rise in artificial intelligence (AI) underpinning educational technology, there is a need to shift focus towards the value of teachers' digital data. By doing so, the broader debate surrounding the implications of these technologies and rights…

Using the EM Algorithm to Predict First Year University Performance.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Smyth, G. K.; And Others – Australian Journal of Education, 1990
A method for predicting freshman performance based on high school grades allows calculation of any student's likely grades in a similar university course. The method is contrasted with several more traditional predictive methods and examined in a study of 3,734 University of Western Australia students. (MSE)
