    This is an accepted manuscript of a book chapter published by Routledge in Rethinking and Reviving Subject English: The Murder and the Murmur on 27/09/2022, available online: https://doi.org/10.4324/9781003262718 The accepted version of the publication may differ from the final published version.

The context is important because transitions always are and as such are also places where pauses may be made for thought. It is in this ‘hiatus’ that the authors find time and space to genuinely negotiate literacy with the University of Opportunity, an institution which was the first and only university to waive requirements for ‘passes’ in GCSE English and maths for applicants. The chapter explores the ongoing writing project which both addresses issues around widening participation and social justice in its desire to find alternative ways to validate students as they arrive. As English teachers, working as academics in an Institute of Education and substantially focused on Teacher Education for the post-compulsory (PCE) sector, the authors found themselves experiencing and negotiating a set of issues around genuine access to university education but also finding simple principled responses within their previous practices as teachers of the subject previously known as English. These issues had nothing to do with course content or indeed curriculum, which can always be more responsive but are never more than, but was rather concerned with the creation of a community of readers and writers, where every writer could be assured of a welcome and readers. Appropriately, this process is also called ‘being included’, the ‘subject’ around which all were invited or indeed allowed to meet.Published onlin

    Citizen participation in news

    The process of producing news has changed significantly due to the advent of the Web, which has enabled the increasing involvement of citizens in news production. This trend has been given many names, including participatory journalism, produsage, and crowd-sourced journalism, but these terms are ambiguous and have been applied inconsistently, making comparison of news systems difficult. In particular, it is problematic to distinguish the levels of citizen involvement, and therefore the extent to which news production has genuinely been opened up. In this paper we perform an analysis of 32 online news systems, comparing them in terms of how much power they give to citizens at each stage of the news production process. Our analysis reveals a diverse landscape of news systems and shows that they defy simplistic categorisation, but it also provides the means to compare different approaches in a systematic and meaningful way. We combine this with four case studies of individual stories to explore the ways that news stories can move and evolve across this landscape. Our conclusions are that online news systems are complex and interdependent, and that most do not involve citizens to the extent that the terms used to describe them imply
