The question of how education research can be 'useful' is an enduring and challenging one. In recent years, this question has been approached by universities through a widespread 'impact' agenda.

Johnson, Louise – Australian Universities' Review, 2022
After 40 years as a hardworking and productive academic, here I was on a Zoom call fronting two senior colleagues telling me I no longer appeared on the new 'organisational chart'. In short, I was being made redundant. It was no surprise really, as another 40,000 professional and academic staff were to suffer the same fate. And really by then I…

Burgess-Jackson, Keith – Journal of Educational Issues, 2020
I argue that it is degrading (and therefore insulting) for university administrators to refer to students as "customers" or "consumers" and to refer to instructors as "vendors" or "service-providers." There is nothing inherently wrong with economic analysis, much less with economics as an academic…

Kubota, Ryuko – Multilingua: Journal of Cross-Cultural and Interlanguage Communication, 2021
The impact of neoliberalism on language education has recently attracted scholars' attention.

Beall, Jeffrey – New Horizons in Adult Education & Human Resource Development, 2017
This commentary examines the problem of predatory journals, low-quality open-access journals that seek to earn revenue from scholarly authors without following scholarly publishing best practices. Seeking to accept as many papers as possible, they typically do not perform a standard peer review, leading to the publication of improperly vetted…

Eastman, Nicholas J.; Boyles, Deron – Education and Culture, 2015
This essay situates John Dewey in the context of the founding of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) in 1915. We argue that the 1915 Declaration of Principles, together with World War I, provides contemporary academics important historical justification for rethinking academic freedom and faculty governance in light of…

Gulson, Kalervo N.; Webb, P. Taylor – Educational Policy, 2016
In this article, we problematize the establishment of an Africentric Alternative School in Toronto, Canada. We argue that policy, and race and racializations cannot be understood outside of, or immune to, neoliberalism. We contend that policy is a form of racial biopolitics, and race is now produced through neoliberal markets, in conjunction with…

Jones, Andee – Australian Universities' Review, 2014
Censorship, says Australian political theorist John Keane (1991), can "echo within us, take up residence within ourselves, spying on us, a private amanuensis who reminds us never to go too far... It makes us zip our lips, tremble and think twice" (p. 39). It can also make us sick. The author states that this is her argument here: that,…

Carter, Lyn – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2017
In this paper, I have positioned myself with Kean Birch and explored some of the political-economic actors/actants of policy suites implicated in the biotechnologies and bioeconomy.
