Talking Teachers

Offering new solutions and fresh perspectives on the current issues with education in Australian schools.

We know a lot about what is wrong with education in schools. In this podcast series we offer new solutions and fresh perspectives to current issues in Australian education that are not being canvassed in other media.

Each episode is hosted by Associate Professors Don Carter and Associate Professor Jane Hunter, members of the Life-wide Learning and Education Research Group in the Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences at the University of Technology Sydney.
We have spent decades involved with education in schools as classroom teachers, head teachers, policy advisors, curriculum experts, course developers, partners in school-based research studies and the advancement of undergraduate and postgraduate teachers including inservice teacher professional learning.

We believe society and education in schools more broadly are at a crossroads and without different directions we are at risk of increasing inequity and fewer young people considering teaching as a career of choice.
