About me
Jamie Manolev works as a Researcher and is a PhD candidate at the University of South Australia.
He is currently working as a Chief Investigator on a project examining exclusionary policies and practices in Australian schools and the impact they have on vulnerable children. He has worked on two ARC Linkage projects as a Research Assistant, the Behaviour at School Study, and the Refugee Student Resilience Study (ongoing). His PhD research is investigating the ways in which ClassDojo (an educational technology) is influencing contemporary education, in particular within the domains of school discipline and classroom management.
Through his roles as a researcher and PhD candidate Jamie is developing expertise in discipline, classroom management, surveillance, critical concepts of data, governance, and critical policy analysis.
Jamie’s PhD research has attracted considerable media attention including coverage spanning television (The Project), radio, print, and online mediums. This has provided him with the opportunity to develop his research engagement and communication skills, in particular through interaction with the media.
As a part of his broader research activity, he has presented research from his PhD at The Inclusive Education Summit 2018, and the Australian Association for Education in Research conference 2018. He has also led a co-authored paper published in the peer-reviewed journal Learning, Media and Technology, and published articles in The Conversation and EduResearch Matters.
