摘要:In Australia, as in many countries across the world, our educational landscape is being shaped by an ever-increasing focus on the “globalised educational policy discourse” (Lingard, 2010) of standardised, ‘high-stakes’ testing, and the subsequent quantitative measuring and ranking of children, classes, schools, districts, states, and countries. Through this paper, we explore our research conducted with children, teachers and parents at a culturally, linguistically, and socio-economically diverse public school community. The paper draws on the voices of teachers, parents, and children who were co-researchers in Clare’s case study research at the school (using emergent, arts-informed methods ADDIN EN.CITE Somerville200812612617Somerville, MWaiting in the chaotic place of unknowing: articulating postmodern emergenceInternational Journal of Qualitative Studies in EducationInternational Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education209-2202132008Cole200813913913Cole, AKnowles, J GKnowles, J GCole, AArts-informed ResearchHandbook of the arts in qualitative research2008Thousand Oaks, CaliforniaSageClark2001776Clark, AMoss, PListening to young children: The mosaic approach 2001LondonNational Children's Bureau and Joseph Rowntree Foundation (Clark & Moss, 2001; Cole & Knowles, 2008; Somerville, 2008) ), and Sophie’s teaching and teacher-research experiences (using pedagogical documentation ADDIN EN.CITE Rinaldi200693936Rinaldi, CIn dialogue with Reggio Emilia: Listening, researching and learning2006OxonRoutledge (Rinaldi, 2006) ). We will explore the children’s perspectives on how they were developing individual and collective subjectivities, how they conceived of difference and connection, and the ways they worked with difference to create a community of belonging in this highly diverse context. We will also analyse the ways in which the teachers and school community sought to actively challenge hegemonic constructions of the ‘successful’ student subject through discourses of trust, difference and connectedness.
