Perth Waste Collaboratory

Check out our research project that used creative arts, pedagogical documentation and the arts to keep waste in sight and in mind in early childhood centres.

Extinction, education and the curious practice of visiting thrombolites ( click for Open Access)

Brad Gobby, Jane Merewether, Annette Nykiel

As the rate of species extinction accelerates, we cannot but confront the reality and future before us. In response, we wrote this paper to add to the ways educators might think about (and enact) the relationship between extinction, children and pedagogy.
