This article draws on research, policy, legislation, and practice to provide strategies for addressing the reentry needs of youth in the juvenile justice system and reframing the way successful reentry outcomes are conceptualized. Achieving a systemic paradigm shift of this nature requires that researchers, policymakers, and juvenile justice…

Although the commonly accepted view is that there are such things as natural talents, more than 20 years of research suggests the opposite.

Background: Although engineering practice occurs in social contexts, such contexts often remain obscure in engineering education. Since engineering sciences courses are crucial in shaping engineering students' knowledge and conceptions of problem-solving in engineering, students in both an augmented and a traditional section of a feedback control…

The use of narrative has been a time-honoured way of exploring complex ideas, and a valuable way to learn. An obvious example that epitomises this thesis, are the dialogues of Plato. Indeed, what gives significance to these dialogues is the way in which complex ideas are revealed through the struggles and conflicts of one or more characters. With…

In this written version of the 2019 Radford Lecture, I address the challenges of teaching and learning about ourselves and others--human and more-than-human others--at this moment of global precarity. In Part 1, I analyse emotions in the Anthropocene through the lens of carnivalesque "placestories." I conclude that we need to shift to a…
