However, these transitions are not always seamless. Using a multiliteracies framework, this article focuses on how a classroom teacher framed what counted as writing in a senior English class where students created a digital writing portfolio across three platforms. Findings explore what counted as writing from the perspective of the teacher before, during, and after the portfolio unit as well as the struggles that she faced in understanding how to assess the myriad of possible authoring paths multimodal projects offer. Implications extend to how teachers may be influenced by and continue to push back on established institutional power structures to open spaces for reshaping what counts as writing in the classroom.Keywords: Multimodalitymultiliteracieswritingdigital literaciespower Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 All names are pseudonyms.2 Students, their parents (if under 18), and the teacher all provided informed, written consent.3 In the transcriptions, “…” indicates that non-essential text is removed for ease of reading and the meaning of the text is still intact; “[…]” indicates a brief pause in speech.Additional informationNotes on contributorsOlivia G. StewartDr. Olivia G. Stewart is an Assistant Professor of Literacy at St. John’s University in the Department of Education Specialties in Queens, NY. Her multiliteracies-framed and critical digital literacies-framed research interests center around multimodal authoring paths and digital-age literacy practices to expand notions of “what counts” as writing, particularly for academically marginalized students. She also examines how critical digital literacy practices can humanize online learning environments to engage learners more authentically and create more equitable learning environments.","PeriodicalId":47971,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135095826","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Associate professors report the highest levels of dissatisfaction among all ranks, as they find themselves entangled in affective knots. To understand these knots in associate professor lifeworlds, we solicit their accounts and reveal affective pain points in the neoliberal university. In this paper, we illuminate the affective knots of melancholy, stasis, and death, giving voice, feeling, and texture to associate professors’ dissatisfaction within the neoliberal institution. However invisible, these affective knots threaten the university’s teaching, learning, scholarship, and social transformation.Keywords: Higher educationneoliberalismaffectassociate professorssocial inequalityacademia Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 These reflections on cross stitching come from the lived experience of the second author with special care given to the experience of finding knots in your thread while stitching. The reflections are used throughout the piece as a metaphor to make the elusive affective knots that develop in the lived experiences of associate professors more tangible and offer shape to their experiences that often get overlooked.2 For the purposes of this study, we use the terms “associate professors,” “tenured professors” and “mid-career faculty” interchangeably.3 By bodies, what we are talking about in this essay is primarily human bodies. That said there is no need theoretically to limit as such.4 Since conducting our interviews, more has been written about performative listening and nonrepresentational research methods in interviewing (Willink & Shukri, Citation2018). At the time we conducted the interviews, we had yet to theorize these methods or realize the degree to which affect would play such a constitutive role in our findings. As a result, our analysis of our already collected interviews was limited to affective transcription. In future work, we can take fuller advantage of the nonrepresentational methods before and during data collect.5 For example, Berheide and Walzer (Citation2014) and Mullen (Citation2017) found that women are much more likely than men to have served as department chair before being promoted to full professor and are more likely to have experienced delays getting to full professor because of this administrative work.Additional informationNotes on contributorsKate WillinkKate Willink is a Professor of Communication Studies at the University of Denver.Keeley HunterKeeley Hunter is a Communication Faculty at Arapahoe Community College.Hava GordonHava Gordon is a Professor of Sociology at the University of Denver.","PeriodicalId":47971,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135146298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The authors suggest reading may not seem as empirical as writing and so has been assigned fairly limited roles in the research process—reading for the literature review at the beginning of a research project and reading to review research reports at the end. Reading, especially reading philosophy, which the authors encourage, can be considered speculative and ephemeral and bound more to the rational than the empirical side of the rational/empirical binary that structures empirical research’s epistemological goals. Also, it can be difficult to control reading—who knows what a reader might read? The authors recommend that researchers commit to reading as a necessary, lengthy preparation for scholarship and research.

In this article, we analyze the institutionalizing responses to the growing sense of youth mental health crisis in Singapore, catalyzed by River Valley High School incident, as the subjectification of wellbeing. We argue, firstly, that the national schools have become the main site for the production of networked surveillance and internalization of wellbeing. We examine the inclusive production of subjects ­characterized by varying levels of wellbeing in a rehabilitative social ­system exercising authority and control. Secondly, we argue that a totalizing system of surveillance and internalization is emerging in a technocratic heterotopia. We conclude by discussing interdisciplinary and intersectional alternative approaches emerging from the heterotopic space of the school.Keywords: FoucaultSingaporewell-beingyouth and mental healthheterotopia AcknowledgementsThe authors thank the two reviewers of this journal for their constructive and incisive comments and suggestions, and Qiao Earn Tay and Shai-Ann Koh for their research assistance.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsDaniel P.

The exploration is conducted through a qualitative study of Greek-Cypriot primary and secondary school teachers who are identified as either conservative or progressive. The findings highlight that regardless of political orientation, teachers interpret the term indoctrination through a negative lens. However, teachers of progressive orientation view affective indoctrination as a part of everyday educational practices, whereas teachers of conservative orientation understand affective indoctrination as an exceptional case. The paper discusses the implications for teaching and teacher education. The relevance of teachers’ political orientation makes it all the more necessary that teachers and teacher educators delve deeper into the political and pedagogical implications of the entanglement between political orientations and understandings of affective indoctrination in schools.Keywords: IndoctrinationaffectconflictteachersCyprus Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 We are Greek-Cypriot researchers working in different education subfields—i.e. educational theory, curriculum analysis, sociolinguistics, language education—doing research on issues of ethnic conflict, peace, identity and language in the Greek-Cypriot educational system. This is our first study on affective indoctrination, but we have conducted several studies on these issues over the past several years (e.g. Zembylas et al., Citation2016; Zembylas & Loukaidis, Citation2021).2 Besides theoretical reasons, a pragmatic reason for choosing not to draw a hard line between affect and emotion is that there is no word for ‘affect’ in the Greek language. So, in our interviews, we use the term ‘emotion’ although both we and the participants make references to events and processes that include both an emotion or feeling and force (see also note #5).3 Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots have always been educated in separate educational systems; although there is a very small number of Turkish-speaking students in a few Greek-Cypriot schools, the two educational systems have been ethnically homogeneous. Given the political sensitivities (e.g. the issue of ‘political recognition’ of the other side), it is difficult to include data from both communities, although there are efforts in recent years by some researchers in both communities to do so.4 Since, during participant recruitment, we asked around (teachers, inspectors, colleagues) to identify participants who were seen as ‘conservative’ and ‘progressive’, those who accepted our invitation to be interviewed were put into these preliminary categories.5 As noted earlier, we chose to translate the word ‘συναίσθημα’ [sin′esthima] into ‘emotion’, given that there is no distinction between affect and e","PeriodicalId":47971,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135199834","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
