Fiona Margetts; Stephen Jonathan Whitty; Brad Taylor – Journal of Higher Education Policy and Management, 2024
University governing bodies, especially academic boards, play a crucial role in policy formation. However, due to the predominance of managerial values over academic values in the policy-making process, a persistent divide exists between policy formulation and implementation. This divide results from the marginalisation of academics and the…

Jamie Manolev; Anna Sullivan; Neil Tippett – British Journal of Sociology of Education, 2024
Education is increasingly infiltrated by technology and datafication. This techno-data amplification is entangled with neoliberalism and the emphasis on calculation and measurement it brings, often through metrics. This article critically examines how metrics are shaping discipline practices in schools through ClassDojo, a popular platform for…

McCuaig, Louise; Woolcock, Liz; Stylianou, Michalis; Ng, Johan Y. Y.; Ha, Amy S. – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2020
This paper explores the governance practices that external providers of school wellbeing programs employ in their contribution to the subjectification function of education. In neoliberal times where this 'game' of subjectification has become more open, governmentality scholars have been challenged to provide more robust insight into how…

Street, C.; Robertson, K.; Smith, J.; Guenther, J.; Larkin, S.; Motlap, S.; Ludwig, W.; Woodroffe, T.; Gillan, K.; Ober, R.; Shannon, V.; Maypilama, E. – Critical Studies in Education, 2023
Policy analysis can be useful for learning about 'what works' in policy. Contemporary policy studies literature highlight that such learning is influenced by power relations in government that shape our ways of knowing the world. This paper offers a critically reflexive narrative account of power relations present during Indigenous higher…

This article critically examines definitions of policy 'success' in the context of historical Indigenous higher education policy in the Northern Territory (NT), Australia. We begin by summarising applications of the often-used but arbitrary, rarely-critiqued terms 'policy success' and 'what works'. The paper chronologically articulates what…

Mulcahy, Dianne – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2022
The aim of this article is to explore the worth of a materialist/posthumanist approach to ethics, specifically affirmative ethics (Braidotti, 2018, 2019a), within the field of education. I work empirical material that 'does' this ethics in classrooms and draw on Deleuze's (1988) ethically guided materialism as taken up by Braidotti (2019b), to…

Specifically, the article seeks to analyse the…

Rowlands, Julie – Gender and Education, 2019
While academic governance does not produce teaching and research, it provides the conditions that enable them to take place. The principal academic governance body within universities, the academic board (also known as the academic senate or faculty senate), therefore plays a key role in enabling universities to conduct their core business.…

Drawing on…

Lambert, Kirsten; Wright, Peter; Currie, Jan; Pascoe, Robin – Critical Studies in Education, 2019
This article explores the effects of neoliberalism and performative educational cultures on secondary school drama classrooms. We consider the ways Deleuze and Guattari's schizoanalysis and Butler's concept of gender performance enable us to chart the embodied, relational, spatial and affective energies that inhabit the often neoliberal and…

Bush, Timothy Mark – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2016
In 2014 "almost 80% of all government school teachers in Australia in their first 5 years of their teaching careers were on short-term contracts." This paper will consider how the short-term contract governs early career teachers in Australia, and more broadly, how neo-liberal governance works on and through institutions and individuals.…

McCarthy, Greg; Song, Xianlin; Jayasuriya, Kanishka – Higher Education Research and Development, 2017
Australian universities over the last 25 years have been unified, internationalised, corporatised and become mass educational providers. This process is replicated globally as a response to rapid mass enrolments and marketisation. In the light of these changes, a corporate and managerial model has been identified, which has been the subject of…
