Abstract
Can you imagine a first-year teacher fronting up to her principal and saying 'NO' to doing out-of-field teaching and offering the research to back that up? And then being able to teach only in-field - using her geography teaching qualification? Dr Susan Caldis, a lecturer in the School of Education at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia shares this anecdote as part of her deep dive into her PhD and subsequent research.
