Research interests
Janet's research interests coalesce in the fields of language and literacy acquisition, literacy assessment, and effective teaching practices in the early years of schooling, while exploring relationships between language and literacy learning. Recent and current projects include:
Janet's PhD was designed to obtain an account of how children learn to read with comprehension. The findings from this research suggest that reading curriculum and pedagogy design should be based on a model of development that embeds reading comprehension in literacy acquisition processes and which positions oral language development and talk as central to the instructional process.
Janet is currently investigating the teaching of phonics in early years classrooms. This project funded by Catholic Education, Melbourne is designed to examine effective practices that support students’ understanding, development and use of phonics within the context of reading and writing in the early years of schooling. The project also examines professional learning processes and structures that facilitate teacher learning and classroom teaching improvement efforts.
Her research into children's writing commenced with a request from Oxford University Press (OUP) to examine the words used in children's writing. In collaboration with Professor Lo Bianco a study of children's writing was undertaken to document the words children write first, to examine their word choices and to explore what these word choices indicate about children's personal identities and social experiences.
The study of Year One Writing aims to identify students' attainment levels and performance trajectories in early writing. In collaboration with colleagues from Charles Sturt University, writing samples were collected from 1700 Year One students across NSW and Victoria at two points in time in 2010. The research has team developed an analysis tool to assess students' writing that considers control over aspects such as text structure, sentence structure, vocabulary, spelling, punctuation and handwriting.
Janet is a CI on an ARC Linkage Project (LP130100001, Building a bridge to preschool in remote NT communities, with colleagues Prof. Sparling, Prof. Tayler, Prof Hattie and Dr Page. This project will be directed towards increasing the language and literacy learning of young Indigenous children in two remote communities in the Territory.
