Summary
Toward data justice in Australian schools. This project will investigate the challenges raised by digital data for Australian schools. The use of digital technologies in schools has led to systematic data collection, which reconfigures schooling processes and interpersonal relationships and presents new risks to staff and students. Although there are laws in place to protect students' rights, there are hidden consequences to using digital technologies. This research project investigates how data ....Toward data justice in Australian schools. This project will investigate the challenges raised by digital data for Australian schools. The use of digital technologies in schools has led to systematic data collection, which reconfigures schooling processes and interpersonal relationships and presents new risks to staff and students. Although there are laws in place to protect students' rights, there are hidden consequences to using digital technologies. This research project investigates how data collection, use and disclosure is experienced and understood in schools. It will identify the role played by intermediaries, such as tech brokers, educational authorities and professional networks. Benefits include policy recommendations, protocols and guidelines for data justice in schools.Read moreRead less
New Generation of High-Performance Radio Frequency Devices . The strong demand for faster internet speed pushes high-speed technology to evolve faster. Designing and developing devices are now facing changes that are far more complex. We aim to tackle them, proposing to develop phase-change materials-based electronic systems. The outcomes will be reconfigurable devices with unprecedentedly increased operational frequency, reduced critical system-level metrics, and elimination of control circuits ....New Generation of High-Performance Radio Frequency Devices . The strong demand for faster internet speed pushes high-speed technology to evolve faster. Designing and developing devices are now facing changes that are far more complex. We aim to tackle them, proposing to develop phase-change materials-based electronic systems. The outcomes will be reconfigurable devices with unprecedentedly increased operational frequency, reduced critical system-level metrics, and elimination of control circuits. The successful results will address the Science and Research Priority of Modern Manufacturing and bring substantial socio-economic benefits to Australia by executing advancements of new technologies for modern wireless communications, leading to new high-tech opportunities, jobs, and economic growth.Read moreRead less
