Research Themes
Angela's research aligns to the University's theme of Creativity, Culture and Society. Her research interests centre around children's literature and children's creation of literature, particularly multimodal literature such as picture books, graphic novels, film and digital literature. Her research interests encompass three central areas. The first area of interest is the critical multimodal discourse analysis of children's literature. This research addresses such questions as how cultural and societal shifts over time impact narrative and story, and the ways in which pedagogy can take into account these shifts.
The second area of interest is critical feminist post-structural theory and how it applies to girl's subjectivities, both real and as depicted in fiction. This research addresses questions such as how girl's bodies are constructed particularly in terms of issues such as eating disorders, body image and violence. The third area of interest is the discursive and social practices, particularly in and around virtual spaces, where young people celebrate, re-create and transform story and literature such as fan fiction, machinima and role-playing. This research addresses questions such as how young people are using digital spaces to transform, resist and counter traditional ideologies. These research areas are all concerned with how findings can lead to social change, starting with the ways that literature and creating literature can be explored in classroom contexts as well as in young people's out of school communities.

Current projects
Angela has three current research projects. The first involves a comparative analysis of texts which have multiple adaptations and transformations (such as novel, graphic novel, film etc.) and the investigation of the ways in which discourses within a single narrative world alter across these transformations. A particular focus of this is retold fairy tales. The second project underway is an investigation of girl's responses to literature which explores aspects of femininity, the body, and body image. The third research project is a study of teacher's experiences of teaching about Literature and place.

- Description
- This project will involve conducting research into the use of AR in education, which is still in its infancy, with little known about its applications for children. There is a dearth of practice-based research into AR being used for literacy development with the aim of advancing language and literacy goals in Australia. The slow uptake is possibly due to the lack of teachers competencies in understanding what AR is and what educational affordances it offers. Therefore, this research project will involve teachers as co-designers in developing pedagogy for using AR to make strong pedagogical connections between the language and literacy strands based on the Australian Curriculum: English. It draws on teachers professional knowledge and practice to advance emerging pedagogy for teaching language and literacy in the primary school contexts. Driven by the changing culture of language and literacy landscape, the study aims to address the following research questions:1.What competencies are necessary for Australian primary school teachers to use AR in language and literacy teaching?2.What are the features of AR apps that promote the content descriptions in the language and literacy strands in the Australian Curriculum: English across the stages/year levels in primary schools? 3.How can teachers use AR to pedagogically connect language and literacy outcomes?

- Description
- The built environments within which the 12,500 female convicts transported to Van Diemens Land (Tasmania) in the nineteenth century were incarcerated have largely been destroyed, often leaving nothing more than barely discernible traces of foundations. The purpose of the app will be to reinscribe the stories of the 832 Ross Female Factory women back into this barren locale. Our app will link richly-detailed archival records with place, acting as a prototype for a new digital approach to the interpretation of Tasmanian convict sites and convict history more generally. This project will situate Tasmania at the cutting edge of historical interpretation while simultaneously creating the necessary pedagogical tools to enable the wider public to engage with our local and regional aspects of the global story of forced penal migration, punishment, reproduction and settlement.
