Research leadership in writing for publication: A theoretical framework     

Rowena Murray  Laura Steckley  Iain MacLeod 《British Educational Research Journal》2012,38(5):765-781

Academics experience difficulty in managing competing tasks, particularly in relation to writing for publication. In a study conducted on a writing retreat, analysis of data obtained from academic writers revealed that facilitative leadership provided at a writing retreat was central to managing task complexity and writing‐related anxiety. The question remains, however, about how this leadership can be modelled in campus settings in order to continue to support academics in managing the complexity of their multiple roles as teachers, researchers and writers, beyond purely technical‐rational approaches. This article outlines one approach to answering this question: it explains how containment theory was used to shed light on the leadership role at the writing retreat, and it proposes a model—strategic engagement—for the leadership role in writing for publication in campus settings.  相似文献

THE COLLEGE     

W. A. Harper 《Religious education (Chicago, Ill.)》2013,108(3):263-272

Working on the theological grounding of God's fellowship, this article identifies the manifestations within which the theology of divine nearness is appropriated in television narratives that revolve around issues of enslavement and healing in Philippine media. Second, it describes the conversion of this warm reception into patronage of the divine nearness responding to the human need for healing. This warm reception underscores the role of faith in the daily grind of life for an ordinary Christian viewer. This new space in media presents the merging of religion and media through narratives of healing in the context of human suffering.  相似文献   

A cross-cultural exploration of ‘wild’ in wilderness therapy: Canada,Norway and Australia   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Nevin J. Harper  Leiv E. Gabrielsen  Cathryn Carpenter 《Journal of Adventure Education & Outdoor Learning》2018,18(2):148-164

This paper addresses pluralistic understandings of wilderness in the context of wilderness therapy (WT). The term wilderness perpetuates a modern worldview of place that beyond ‘civilisation’ exists an environment defined by risk, fear and an unpredictable nature. WT utilises outdoor travel and living practices during therapeutic intervention and health promotion although empirical justification for its use of wilderness for therapy is not yet established. This paper provides three cultural perspectives on wild places in relation to WT. These national perspectives are informed by local practices, historical and societal understandings of wilderness and supported by related literature from Canada, Norway and Australia. The authors (1) illustrate a number of contemporary western assumptions about wilderness enshrined in the WT and outdoor adventure literature, (2) cautiously propose core purposes for using wild places for therapy and (3) encourage further development of WT practice and research within national, regional and even across organisational contexts.  相似文献   

Technology and Teacher–Student Interactions: A Review of Empirical Research     

Ben Harper 《Journal of Research on Technology in Education》2018,50(3):214-225

As technology becomes ubiquitous in education, it is critical to understand the ways in which technology influences interactions between teachers and their students. The overarching research question that guided this systematic review was: What does research tell us about how technology influences interactions between teachers and students in K–12 settings? This review examined studies published in peer-reviewed journals between 2005 and 2016. Findings indicated that studies examined two types of teacher–student interactions that technology influenced: (a) face-to-face interactions in traditional classrooms, and (b) online interactions in traditional and virtual classrooms. Technology promoted collaboration between teachers and students during learning activities, and teachers who used technology leveraged it to maximize their uses of strategies aimed at facilitating learning and promoting students' exploration of content.

Cogito ergo sum: A grounded theory of the Filipino elderly transition experiences in third age education program     

Rowena L. Escolar Chua 《Educational gerontology》2018,44(7):433-446

A considerable number of studies have been carried out to explore the experiences of the elderly engaging in third age education, however, most of these investigations have focused on elderly motivation, the benefits accruing from their participation, and the barriers they have encountered during their lifelong learning experience. However, there has been little attempt to probe into the experiences of the elderly engaging in third age education and how they view themselves during that time. This grounded theory study purported to describe the processes through which a select group of Filipino elderly experienced community-based third age learning programs. A series of in-depth interviews were conducted on 24 Filipino elderly who participated in a 4-month third age education program. Interestingly, this study revealed four distinct and yet interrelated stages of Holding Back, Opening Up, Moving Forward and Empowering which were embedded in the model H.O.M.E: A Pulley Model of Elderly Participation in Third Age Education Program. The emerged model is a valuable compass for gerontologists as they provide meaningful and geriatric-friendly programs, projects and activities that not only address the growing needs of the elderly but also facilitate their smooth entry to and completion of their third age learning participation.  相似文献
