OVERVIEW CHE strives to facilitate research and assist existing and emerging scholars. In 2017 we supported two senior research fellows and 22 postdoctoral research fellows, each based at one of the Centre’s node universities. These scholars contribute valuable research to the Centre, while developing their own expertise and networks. To read more about their research projects, please see the project lists accompanying each program report.

2017 ANNUAL REPORT | 69 “The continuing professional development (CPD) activities conducted by the UQ node of the ARC Centre of Excellence for the History of Emotions (Europe 1100-1800) make a very valuable contribution to the teaching of English in secondary schools. Their focus on the content of the subject as opposed to pedagogy usefully complements experiences available EDUCATION AND OUTREACH through other avenues such as teacher professional associations. The exposure to cutting- edge scholarship about Shakespeare and related topics and the opportunity to hear leading academic experts, often visiting international ones, have considerable potential to enrich and re-invigorate the work that high school English teachers do with their own students. The ongoing link with academia represented by these CPD events provides significant support to the education of young Queenslanders.” Garry Collins, English Teachers Association of Queensland
