Fischer, Sarah; Green, Wendy – Journal of Studies in International Education, 2018
Many have observed challenges in translating internationalization policy into practice in universities.

Hardley, Stephanie; Gray, Shirley; McQuillan, Ruth – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2021
Improving the health and wellbeing (HWB) of children and young people has become a policy priority due to perceptions of decreased mental health and academic outcomes. This interest is seen in the Scottish education policy, Curriculum for Excellence (CfE); however, ambiguity around the term 'wellbeing' may hinder successful curriculum enactment.…

Moschetti, Mauro; Martínez Pons, Marc; Bordoli, Eloísa; Martinis, Pablo – Journal of Education Policy, 2020
Over the last decades privatization policies have taken centre stage in many processes of educational reform globally. In Latin America, these policies have played an important role since the 1990s leading to an increasing participation of private agents in educational provision. The case of Uruguay stands out for having remained somehow apart…

In this article, we focus on how a discourse on inclusion operates through language learning programmes for migrants. We direct our attention to a new form of activities funded by the Swedish government, "Swedish from day 1," organised by popular education institutions. These activities emerged in connection to the migration flows in…

Nespor, Jan – Education Policy Analysis Archives, 2016
Drawing on analytic heuristics from critical discourse analysis and cultural political economy (Jessop, 2010; Wodak, 2002), this article examines the temporal premises and "futures" embedded in a report and reform proposal created in a mid-sized, American city, Columbus, Ohio, in 2013. The product of a city-wide commission appointed in…

Bengtsson, Stefan Lars – Journal of Environmental Education, 2016
Assumptions are readily made about the global nature and discourse of education for sustainable development. This study challenges assumptions made about structural power as expressed through Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) policy and politics of education. Focusing on the concept of sustainable development (SD) and ESD, the research…

Castillo, Felipe Aravena; Lobos, Marta Quiroga – Journal of Pedagogy, 2017
In the last decade, Chile has focused on early childhood education and care (ECEC) as a key opportunity to increase student-learning outcomes and decrease socio-economic inequalities. The creation of Chile's Under-Secretariat of ECEC in 2015 highlights the relevance of this educational stage. The purpose of this study is to analyse the new law…

Tett, Lyn – Globalisation, Societies and Education, 2014
This paper explores one example of an international comparison -- the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's International Adult Literacy Survey (IALS) -- in order to investigate the power of numbers in both the shaping and the legitimisation of adult literacy policy using Scotland as a case study. It is argued that policy…

Dockweiler, Katherine A.; Putney, LeAnn G.; Jordan, Teresa S. – Journal of Ethnographic & Qualitative Research, 2015
Our cross-case analysis employed a Layers of Analysis Framework (LoAF) to establish its use as a methodological framework for deconstructing policy text in education. Existing methods of analysis are largely theoretical and lack concrete procedures for analytic replication. Robust measures of investigation are needed to enhance policy studies and…

Mifsud, Denise – Journal of Educational Administration and History, 2016
Policy discourse officially operates to distinctly influence public perception in an irrevocable and normalising manner. In a Maltese educational scenario of gradual decentralisation and increased accountability, I explore the "effects" of both the global and the local policy discourse of networks and networking on the practising…
