The paper shows how the ESD proposals reflect the orthodoxy of education as human capital formation for economic development, albeit within a reformed ‘green growth’ model. At the same time, it argues that their distinctive ambitions and transformational language provide space for critical educators to simultaneously work with and against their contradictions and limitations, and to advance non-capitalist and degrowth alternatives.]]> Wed 07 Feb 2024 15:27:30 AEDT ]]> Higher education for times of climate crisis-critical awareness, purpose and community https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39221 Wed 03 Jul 2024 16:31:13 AEST ]]> Re/cognising the discursive fr/Ames of equity and widening participation in higher education https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42457 Tue 23 Aug 2022 11:50:22 AEST ]]> Private education and disadvantage: the experiences of assisted place holders https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:16495 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:05:37 AEDT ]]> Stratification and the illusion of equitable choice in accessing higher education https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40730 within and across the academy. However, this stratification is glossed over in widening participation policy and research. In this paper, we challenge this view by examining young people’s capacities to ‘choose’ university using the heuristic of ‘embedded choosers’ and ‘contingent choosers.’ Our analysis of two school-based case studies highlights the early stratification of students’ post-school choices, conceptualised as a continuum from an absence of choice to a wide array of global choice. We argue that rather than focus on gains in overall enrolment, there is a critical need to address the insidious stratification that is subsumed within the widening participation agenda.]]> Mon 20 May 2024 12:58:43 AEST ]]>
