Hawk Chang – Changing English: Studies in Culture and Education, 2024
Fairy tales have been an essential ingredient in children's literature.

Tanya Davies; Jack Davis – Changing English: Studies in Culture and Education, 2024
In post-invasion Australia, English has been a key instrument of colonisation. English education was tasked with producing subjects both loyal to the Australian nation and the British Empire with little recognition given to people from other languages and cultures, least of all First Peoples. Despite Australia now being considered a successful…

Xia Fang – Changing English: Studies in Culture and Education, 2024
Whether creativity can be taught or not has remained an unresolved and recurring topic of debate in creative writing.

John Yandell – Changing English: Studies in Culture and Education, 2024
Current policy in England, informed by a version of cognitive science, enforces an absolute distinction between experts and novices, or teachers and learners; from this binary, operating in tandem with regimes of performativity instantiated in a curriculum shaped by high-stakes testing, are derived particular forms of pedagogy and particular…
