This podcast discusses policy, but not the boring type, the type that talks about those who enact it…teachers! This paper won the PESP best paper for 2017. Dr. Laura Alfrey explains why enacting policy doesn't always work as the writers intended through the lens of 3 teachers. Episode 22 gave a background on how critical inquiry is embedded into the Australian Curriculum.
