Congratulations Graham

My colleague (and office next-door-neighbour) Dr Graham Daniel  was awarded the Faculty of Education research excellence award this week. Congratulations Graham! We currently have a paper under review in a journal, so his trajectory continues. Here is his citation:

Dr Daniel has—throughout his time at CSU—been an outstanding and committed teacher. In the last two years, he has developed a powerful research trajectory that has investigated the impact of neo-liberalism on all levels of learning. Graham’s provocative research projects exploring parental involvement in schools, alongside a profound care for pre-service teacher education students who are often the first in family to attend university, have enhanced, performed and displayed the key commitments of the School of Teacher Education, and CSU more generally.

Acting Dean of Education, Philip Hider with Dr Graham Daniel

Sound Start Study writing retreat in Sydney

During the first week of August members of the Sound Start Study met in Sydney for a writing retreat. We have finished data collection for stages 1-3 of the project (stages 4-6 are underway), so were able to begin writing journal articles based on the results of the initial stages. It was a productive time writing 4 journal articles simultaneously!
