Ethical Journalism : A Code of Ethics Template to Guide Journalists in a Post-truth Era

Ethical Journalism : A Code of Ethics Template to Guide Journalists in a Post-truth Era

This public consultation draft aims to derive a comprehensive ethics framework to guide journalists and media publishers who operate in a ‘post-truth’ world. This modernization is essential in an era where ‘fake news’ abounds in a visible number of mainstream, niche and alternative media outlets (Dorf &Tarrow, 2017). This dire development is causing an ever-growing number of people to lose confidence in the accuracy and intent of media content and the ability of media broadcasters to self-administer their own self-authored ethics code.

Infrastructures of insecurity: Housing and language testing in Asia-Australia migration

This paper explores how migration infrastructure conditions migrant mobilities within receiving states. The paper examines two infrastructural case studies, language testing and housing markets, in relation to Asian 'middling' migrants, that is, the relatively educated and skilled but not elite, who arrive in Australia on temporary visas. The analysis highlights the interplays and dependencies of different 'logics of operation' (Xiang and Lindquist 2014) of infrastructure in relation to these migrants' status mobilities and housing mobilities within the receiving society. The paper draws on data from in-depth narrative interviews with migrants to also understand how infrastructure produces perceptions and meaning-making around the migration process. This analysis reveals that, in this empirical context, migration infrastructure produces varied kinds of spatio-temporal insecurity as much as it mediates mobility.

High-Stakes Testing at High Fees: Notes and Queries on the International English Proficiency Assessment Market

As the neoliberal Order spreads around the globe, the megalanguage English integral to its functioning spreads with it. Concomitantly, a worldwide testing industry for English as a foreign language has established itself, a commercial condominium trading in a specific knowledge product, the standardised EFL proficiency test. Scores on two high-stakes exams in particular, TOEFL and IELTS, have assumed a prime classificatory (and disciplinary) function. The article explores the impact of this high-stakes industrialised testing business and its implications for educational commodification and marketisation on a global scale. It focuses on the 'products' of its principal corporation, Educational Testing Service (ETS, Princeton, N.J.), with a side look at the Anglo-Australian examining 'trust' behind IELTS. It is argued that within the political economy and cultural politics of English as an international language, this testing industry constitutes a unique site for examining dimensions of knowledge commercialisation, reproduction of social class and inequality, the intrusion of Capital and its ideologies into the education of urban elites, and gatekeeper functions of Centre-defined skills and proficiencies in a high-intensity transnational context. I introduce the notion of a 'critical ethnography' of high-stakes testing, look at current moves to better assess EFL assessment and its global social fallout and suggest some research desiderata. The final sections set out several feasible alternatives to the present testing regime and foci for grassroots critical testing advocacy and related demands by EFL professionals and other cultural workers. Initiatives can be launched throughout international education, the dominion of these abuses is distinctively planetary. First published in Journal for Critical Education Policy, 2(1), 2004

English Language and the Transition to Work or Further Study

This paper is the third in a series for the national symposium Five years on: English Language Competence of International Students, 2013. It focuses on the English language outcomes of students with English as an Additional Language (EAL) and the impact that English language proficiency (ELP) has on subsequent study and employment. There is a widespread view among employers and professional bodies that international students are graduating without the English language competence and ‘soft skills’ required to successfully transition into the Australian labour market. Perceived deficiencies of ELP are impacting both Work Integrated Learning (WIL) and employment opportunities for EAL students. The paper articulates some of the challenges of defining the construct of ELP in academic and professional contexts in addition to the difficulty of setting an appropriate standard for exit. It also provides a critical assessment of exit testing as a means of evidencing ELP by graduation while considering some alternative practices that institutions might adopt. A number of key issues have been identified for further discussion: how we might conceptualise a definition of the construct of ELP; the extent to which policy and practice might ensure the cumulative development of ELP by graduation; how exiting ELP might be evidenced; the setting of realistic exiting standards and how ELP might be better integrated into graduate attribute statements and related policy. Concerns also centre on improving the provision of integrated career education and access to Work Integrated Learning (WIL) experiences. Despite the heightened focus on exiting ELP in the research literature since the 2007 symposium, there is still a need for further research in key areas, including the validity of standardised tests for assessing graduating proficiency, the transition to further study and the ELP level needed for effective performance in vocational fields and trades.
