    Satisfiers and dissatisfiers for international vocational education students: A case study using narrative frames

    Get PDF
    While the satisfaction of international students is frequently surveyed, much of this research is based on a very limited range of closed-item data collection methods, producing findings that partially reflect the researchers’ assumptions in designing the survey items. Recognizing the potential value in using methods that are more open-ended and qualitative analyses, the present study employed narrative frames and follow-up interviews to explore the satisfiers and dissatisfiers for international vocational education students at one institution in New Zealand. Reporting on perceptions of the class, institution, and community, the findings identify the participants’ top-of-mind (dis)satisfiers and complement the existing literature by identifying seldom-reported themes. Discussion of issues in analyzing narrative frames is also provided

    Get PDF
    'In bright brief moments' is a group exhibition of artists investigating ideas of self-hood and the formation of identity. Speaking in an interview about her essay collection 'Can You Tolerate This?', writer Ashleigh Young explains “your sense of self can, in bright brief moments, seem heightened.” Weaving personal histories with re-telling other's stories, Young's essays create a complex and varied way to consider identity and attempts to find moments of clarity amid uncertainty. In these ideas, the painting and photography practices of Danielle Foster, Helen Dowling, Bronwyn Jones, Gerry Parke, and Roberta Thornley find common ground and acknowledge the multiplicities of a complex and even contradictory self-hood

    Get PDF
    Abstract A substantial issue in sporting professions today, including elite strength and conditioning is gender imbalance. Attitudes towards women’s roles are complex and institutionally entrenched, contributing to barriers to women’s success. While real issues still exist for today’s elite female strength and conditioners, murmurings of change are audible. Further research on why gender imbalance in strength and conditioning matters as well as the creation of a culture where women feel included and wanted is part of the solution. This research focuses on women leaders in strength and conditioning, their experiences, the barriers they perceive and their ways of overcoming them
