Episode Synopsis

In this episode of the Re:search Re:imagined podcast, we're joined by experts Lucy Betts and Oonagh Steer from NTU's School of Social Sciences. Together, they explore ways in which teachers can foster open conversations among children and young people about banter, encouraging them to consider how jokes might be perceived differently than intended. The episode also delves into the ambiguous nature of banter, emphasising how factors such as context can be important in determining meaning behind messaging. In this episode, we’re also joined by Director of the Anti-Bullying Alliance, Martha Evans, who provides an oversight into their work and their aims with Anti-Bullying Week.
