Light Sensitive Learners: Unveiling Policy Inaction-Marginalisation-Discrimination - Paperback

by Wendy Johnson (Author)

This book explains why Australian governments are doing nothing for marginalised light sensitive learners. Government inaction is explored via policymaking theories and contrasted with a case study of active policymaking in a NSW high school which resulted in improved academic results. This book exposes inequity and provides a warrant for action.

A must-read for: -

• policy scholars who want to detect and understand policy inaction.
• educators who want to support Light Sensitive Learners.
• lighting designers who want to reduce the negative impacts of artificial lighting.
• lawyers who want to understand the original intent and importance of the clause "learning differently" in the Disability Discrimination Act.
• parents who want to know "who's to blame"?
