Challenging the embedded mythologies that surround Anzac, especially as the centenary of First World War played out over the 2014 to 2018 commemoration period, can be confronting for tertiary students as well as a difficult space for tutors to navigate.

At the same time, a…

Toliver, S. R. – Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy, 2020

In this way, the futuristic windows and…

Ginis, Katrina; Stewart, Sandra E.; Kronborg, Leonie – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2022
