1 “Help Them Understand the Complexity, the Difficulties and the Pleasures of Creative Writing” : Children’s Author Libby Gleeson on Creativity in Education Daniel Xerri , 2017 single work criticism interview
— Appears in: New Review of Children's Literature and Librarianship , vol. 23 no. 2 2017; (p. 95-105)

'Nurturing young people’s creativity seems to have become one of the foremost goals of education over the past few years. However, a minimal amount of attention is paid to the challenges that teachers face in achieving this goal in the classroom. In this interview-based article, children’s author Libby Gleeson indicates that while an assessment-driven curriculum undermines teachers’ efforts to promote creativity, equally detrimental is their own inability to position themselves as creative practitioners. Based on her professional experience as a writer and educator, Gleeson suggests that teacher education and development can play a pivotal role in helping teachers to nurture their personal creativity.'
1 Igniting Young People's Creativity : The Sydney Story Factory Daniel Xerri , 2016 single work criticism
— Appears in: New Writing , vol. 13 no. 1 2016; (p. 42-49) 'This article provides an insight into the work of the Sydney Story Factory, a creative writing centre for young people. Based on an interview with the centre's Storyteller-in-Chief, it shows how the Sydney Story Factory seeks to maximise the attention given to each student's creative output. In the article it is argued that the innovative approaches employed at this centre can serve as an example of reforms that might need to be introduced in the educational system and teacher education and development.'
