Portrait de Kalista Sy et de sa série "YAAY2.0" au prisme de la "sutura"
No full textL’article propose un portrait de la journaliste de renommée mondiale, Khadidiatou, plus connue sous le nom de Kalista Sy, scénariste et réalisatrice de la série Maîtresse d’un homme marié. Son travail fait du statut de la femme sénégalaise un baromètre social en réflexion constante à travers des sitcoms où elles sont actrices de leur vie. À l’ère du digital, dans sa deuxième série, Yaay2.0, Sy se focalise sur le désir d’enfant, l’infertilité masculine et les fausses couches s’inspirant d’un format podcast cyberféministe, à contre-courant d’une société où la sutura – la discrétion quant à la vie privée –a valeur de principe cardinal
Paula Delsol, une réalisatrice en voie de réapparition
No full textL’histoire du cinéma tend à redécouvrir depuis plusieurs années les réalisatrices du passé qui avaient été oubliées, invisibilisées (à l’instar de Barbara Loden ou Tanaka Kinuyo). Cet article se propose d’étudier le cas de la réalisatrice Paula Delsol, auteure de deux films de cinéma – La Dérive (1964), Ben et Bénédict (1977) – dont seul le premier est aujourd’hui disponible. La Dérive raconte les aventures sentimentales d’une jeune femme du sud-ouest avec beaucoup de liberté. Cette œuvre aurait pleinement pu figurer dans le répertoire de la Nouvelle Vague (tourné en extérieurs réels, en 35mm, avec une équipe réduite et principalement des acteurs inconnus) mais malgré des appuis (François Truffaut s’était publiquement enthousiasmé pour le film) et une presse plutôt favorable, elle est finalement tombée dans l’oubli. Il s’agira d’analyser ce phénomène à travers la sortie et la réception critique de ce premier long métrage, et de contribuer à la redécouverte de cette figure importante de l’histoire du cinéma français
Centaurs and Headmasters: A Survey of Classical Education, from the Time of Achilles to the Post-Enlightenment Era: A Survey of Classical Education, from the Time of Achilles to the Post-Enlightenment Era
No full text“Centaurs and Headmasters: A Survey of Classical Education, from the Time of Achilles to the Post-Enlightenment Era” investigates the education, rooted in the Classics, of aristocratic or upper-class men from Classical Greece, late-Republican and Imperial Rome, and post-Enlightenment Britain. Through a pedagogical analysis, this research will highlight the continued relationship between education that is rooted in the Classics and aristocratic or upper-class male superiority in patriarchal societies. By investigating the relationship between education that is rooted in the Classics and aristocratic male superiority, one can disentangle the historical socioeconomic systems that utilize education to perpetuate an agenda of oppression against women, minorities, and the impoverished. Furthermore, by disentangling education that is rooted in the Classics from socioeconomic systems that perpetuate upper-class and aristocratic male superiority, one can reflect upon how this relationship continues to influence education in the twenty-first century
Braiding Food Systems: Co-Constructing Indigenous Seed Systems with Northern Ontario First Nations
No full textCold weather and harsh northern climates combined with colonial oppression, racism and marginalization experienced by Indigenous communities in Canada have limited the capacity and presence of food growing in Northern Ontario First Nations. As well, traditional and local food systems consisting of hunting, fishing, gathering, and purchasing food face increasing pressure from climate and land-use change, natural resource exploitation, and rising food and transport costs, threatening food security and sovereignty in northern communities. Responding to calls from First Nations leaders for greater support for food production to complement existing food systems, Braiding Food Systems is a three-year collaborative research project between the University of Guelph, Wiikwemikong Unceded Territory, the Nokiiwin Tribal Council, and the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture Food and Rural Affairs. Working together with four Ontario First Nations communities (Pic Mobert, Fort Williams, Rocky Bay, Wiikwemikong), this project will ‘rematriate’ Indigenous seeds and food growing practices back to communities while facilitating learning through action to build capacity and strengthen Indigenous food sovereignty and food security. This presentation will outline the activities, progress and outcomes from year-one of this research project, describing the relationship building process between community partners, and actions taken to ensure equity and collaboration in research. We will present our workplan and strategy for year 2 and 3, outlining proposed approach to data collection, capacity strengthening, and sustainability. We will present key considerations for year 2 and 3 and share lessons learned to support future collaborative research with Indigenous communities
Looking for a Dream: understanding rural youth life trajectories in Colombia
No full textThe voice of rural youth in the Global South is still missing from the sustainable development agenda and related academic research. Rural youth are one of the most underrepresented groups. Despite the fact that most of the global south population is young and lives in rural areas. The existing literature on rural youth is largely focused on economic aspects, which considers youth as labour in agricultural production. Few articles consider other aspects that might have a direct influence in rural youths’ decision-making process.
This research study provides relevant data on the prevailing conditions that influence decision-making processes in rural areas of Colombia from the perspective of rural youth. In the communities where the research was conducted, legal and illegal economies co-exist. This presentation is based on the results of participatory research to make participants collaborators in the study. To do that the research conducted four photovoice projects and focus groups. The research study evidences that although the macro structures (economic, social) and the regime (community/family) influence the decision-making process, rural youth\u27s self-determination might explain why some individuals choose one life-course or another. A systems-based approach is required to explore and understand rural youth realities in the Global South. Understanding what aspects influence rural youth decision-making processes provides critical information to design and implement age and context-appropriate policies and programs
Understanding Microaggressions: A Social-Alignment Approach
No full textMicroaggressions are commonly defined as brief, negative slights that are delivered verbally, behaviourally, or environmentally. In an account of microaggressions developed by Christina Friedlaender, microaggressions are further defined as a form of negative slight that is rooted in stereotypes or implicit biases. However, I consider whether Friedlaender is correct in their claim that microaggressions must be rooted in stereotypes or implicit biases to be rightly considered a microaggression. I argue that microaggressions must not be rooted in stereotypic or biased views, rather they must simply align with them since impact is more important than intent when it comes to microaggressions
Mind-Body Interaction and the Laws of Nature in Descartes
No full textWhile Descartes\u27 standard narrative portrays a purely mechanistic explanation for all material movement, Princess Elizabeth\u27s correspondence with Descartes reveals an intriguing puzzle. How do the laws of nature within Descartes\u27 mechanistic framework account for the influence of the soul on the human body? This essay expands on Elizabeth\u27s question, addressing not only voluntary movements but also exploring broader mind-to-body interactions that are essential to human health. By Descartes\u27 own principles of mechanics, the soul and body do not come into contact. As such, I argue that there ought to be an expansion of natural philosophy to include rules of mind-body regularity. Without these rules of mind-body regularity, Descartes\u27 natural philosophy is insufficient to explain all material movement in the human being. I will explain how the term "nature" had more than one meaning in the seventeenth century, and that Descartes himself uses the term in more than one way. There is the possibility, then, for an account of physics that includes mind, and by extension, mind-body regularity. Once mind-body regularity is included in Descartes\u27 natural philosophy (alongside the laws of nature), Descartes\u27 natural philosophy can justify the effects of mind states on bodily movement.
 
Unlocking insights: A systematic review of contextualized cubing instructional strategies
No full textThis systematic review examines the effectiveness of contextualized instructional strategies in the domain of cubing. Cubing, a popular puzzle-solving activity, has garnered significant attention in educational settings as a tool for enhancing spatial reasoning and problem-solving skills. However, the efficacy of different instructional approaches in facilitating cubing mastery remains underexplored. Through a comprehensive analysis of existing literature, this review synthesizes evidence on the impact of contextualized instructional strategies on learners\u27 cubing proficiency. Drawing from a range of studies, including experimental interventions, comparative analyses, and qualitative investigations, key themes emerged regarding the benefits of contextualized instruction in enhancing learners\u27 understanding of cubing algorithms, spatial visualization abilities, and overall problem-solving competence. Additionally, this review identifies gaps in the current literature and offers insights for future research directions, highlighting the importance of tailored instructional approaches that integrate real-world contexts to optimize cubing learning outcomes. Overall, this study provides valuable insights for educators, researchers, and practitioners seeking to enhance cubing instruction through evidence-based pedagogical strategies
Leçons d\u27un Groupe de Femmes
No full textAsking about an individual\u27s or family\u27s context is easily overlooked as one part of engaging in the client-therapist relationship. By accounting for the context we therapist-types practice in and the context our clients experience, we are afforded an opportunity to understand clients\u27 experience both in and outside of therapy. This article discusses a therapist\u27s experience of the intersections of assumptions and context.Il est facile de ne pas tenir compte du contexte d\u27une personne ou d\u27une famille dans le cadre de la relation entre le client et le thérapeute. En tenant compte du contexte dans lequel nous, thérapeutes, pratiquons et du contexte dans lequel vivent nos clients, nous avons la possibilité de comprendre l\u27expérience des clients à la fois dans et en dehors de la thérapie. Cet article traite de l\u27expérience d\u27un thérapeute à l\u27intersection des hypothèses et du contexte
Réflexions sur l’empathie thérapeutique à une « époque intéressante »: Raisons de contrer la post-empathie
No full textEmpathy has long been considered an essential part of the therapeutic process. However, in an "interesting age" of post-truth, and more recently, potential post-empathy, it is worthwhile to examine the utility of therapeutic empathy rather than assuming that empathetic therapeutic traditions should be automatically afforded therapeutic space. I contend that empathy remains a relevant relational and therapeutic ingredient. Further, I suggest that empathy is not only relevant, but also essential in maintaining the fundamental relational stance and efficacy of therapeutic interventions. In particular, those therapists of systemic orientation, where relational reciprocation as an intrinsic component of interpersonal healing, have an an obligation to critically consider the role of therapeutic empathy in an era of virtual therapy, artificial intelligence and post-truth.Empathy has long been considered an essential part of the therapeutic process.
