With nearly 40 years of classroom experience, Dr Purje argues that writing on screens cannot replace th...e complex skill of handwriting with chalk. Would you like to see chalk back in classrooms?

10.01.2022 The wavey, inflatable people often used to attract the attention of customers to businesses like used car yards have found a new use in dingo management in Australia. The CQUniversity study showed that oversized, inflatable human effigies, which researchers have since dubbed ‘Fred-a-scare’, could deter captive dingoes from accessing food, providing some hope that dingoes and humans can coexist successfully without resorting to lethal management techniques. Lead researcher Dr... Bradley Smith talks about the potential impact of this quirky research for livestock producers, campgrounds and mining operations in CQUniversity's latest Impact podcast episode.
