“…Frames are evocative of system-related features of a stereotypical context or situation that provides ''structured understandings of the way aspects of the world function'' (Sweetser & Fauconnier, 1996, p. 5). This contention has gained currency in discourse studies, where frames are deemed to involve the identification of a problem or a situation, the setting of the problem's agenda, and the articulation of a possible solution to the problem (Entman, 1993;Muis, van Schie, Wieringa, et al, 2019). Frames provide the interlocutors with a lens to view, classify, characterise, and understand an issue, or a stereotypical situation (Leeper & Slothuus, 2018, p. 7).…”

The article presents a study that aimed to examine how primary school teachers of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) framed the identity of an ideal EFL teacher. The specific research aim was to identify and classify frames associated with the identity of an EFL primary school teacher in the corpus of reflective essays of approximately 1000 words about an ideal EFL teacher in Norwegian primary school contexts written by 32 Norwegian in-service primary school EFL teachers. It was hypothesised that the participants’ framing would be reflective of the identity of an ideal EFL teacher in Norway. The corpus of the participants’ essays was analysed in accordance with the framing methodology developed by Entman (1993) and Dahl (2015). The results of the framing analysis indicated that the participants in the study framed the identity of an ideal EFL teacher via frames associated with future ideal selves, ought-to selves, the identity of their former EFL teachers, and the identity of an ideal EFL teacher as a fictional character. The study implications would be beneficial to pre-service and current in-service EFL teachers and teacher-trainers alike, who could treat the results as a collective “portrait” of an ideal EFL teacher.

“…The first type of reuse is by rightwing politicians and media. As I have shown in earlier work with other colleagues, the interface of CBS allows for the customization of data selection and visualizations, a feature which is regularly used by rightwing politicians to share socio-economic "facts" about the lives of people with a migration background (see Muis et al 2019). The affordances of the CBS interface allow for a strategic selection of data to make a situation seem more alarming.…”

The Datafication of Race-Ethnicity

While this dissertation will undoubtedly herald a new phase in my life, it is also the capstone to a few years of hard work. To get to this point, I had to navigate many different institutional and physical infrastructures while meeting many different people along the way. The quote "a good infrastructure is hard to find" is from Geoffrey Bowker and Susan Leigh Starr's Sorting Things Out (1999, 33), a study that was instrumental to my research. I find its dual meaning very interesting: the moral, emotional, financial, and technical support that I was lucky enough to receive is quite scarce and such support tends to "fade into the woodworks" (Bowker and Star 1999, 34) once a project, such as this one, has been completed. In these acknowledgements, I would, therefore, like make visible the various supportive foundations that enabled me to write this monograph.While it might sound surprising in hindsight, the beginning of my academic journey was not entirely successful. I failed four times at making it past the first year of a bachelor program. After having tried my luck at Artificial Intelligence, Philosophy, Business Administration, and Philosophy and Religion Education respectively, I ended up in the BA program of Theater, Film, and Television Sciences at Utrecht University in 2011. This time I did much better: I actually managed to graduate. However, there is more to this story than mere personal perseverance; I could not have succeeded without the privilege of receiving financial support both from family and the Dutch government. Not everybody is given a second chance at a university education, let alone a third, fourth, and fifth.Given my interest in new media, I decided to do an MA in New Media and Digital Culture, also taught at the Media and Culture Department of Utrecht University. In this program, I met many inspiring teachers who would later become colleagues, such as René Glas, Imar de Vries, Stefan Werning, Michiel de Lange, and Joost Raessens. I would like to give a special mention to Marianne van den Boomen, who came up with an idea for my research internship only weeks before she passed away. I am thankful for the opportunity to do this research internship with Mirko Schäfer at the Utrecht Data School (UDS) in 2014. I still have fond memories of working together with Irene Westra in the small office in the attic of Kromme Nieuwegracht 20. We decided to take a few weeks to figure out both how to scrape an online forum and figure out the ethical implications of such a method. Inexperienced as we were, we followed the wrong order and found out that the technical part of our research was not as difficult as we had envisaged. I will never forget how, after three days into this investigation, we had to tell Mirko we managed to download information concerning more than 130,000 people without having read up on research ethics yet. Mirko, thank you so much for turning these bad research practices into an opportunity to write about big data research ethics and for preparing us for our first conference presen...
