Developing and using a learning design toolkit
No full textThe contributors to this symposium are currently involved in the DialogPlus project in which staff at two universities in the UK and two in the USA are collaborating to share elearning resources in the subject domains of Physical, Environmental and Human Geography. The project, currently in its third year, is funded by the UK's Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) and the USA's National Science Foundation (NSF). The development period of the project finishes at the end of January 2006, after which there will be a two year embedding phase. In order to support teaching staff in designing and sharing learning activities, project members in the School of Education and the Learning Technologies Research Group at the University of Southampton have developed an online Learning Design Toolkit. Three main strands underpin our approach. These are firstly to research, understand and apply what is going on in the learning design field, particularly evolving standards in the areas of sharing digital resources, interoperability, searching, re-purposing, permissions. Secondly, to work closely with teaching colleagues to analyse their methods, when creating or re-purposing resources, and be guided by their requirements. Lastly, to enshrine good practice within the toolkit, such that it will guide and support teachers in as they create, modify, and share teaching and learning resources.The elements of a learning activity have been defined and taxonomies adopted or developed for learning and teaching approach, learning outcomes, tasks, tools and resources. These have been modelled in the toolkit's database and are used both to guide teachers as they create or re-purpose learning activities and as potential metadata for other practitioners searching for resources. The toolkit has an adaptive interface to offer appropriate support to both experienced and inexperienced academics.The toolkit specification and taxonomies have been compared to other approaches, most notably IMS Learning Design. It has proved informative to map between the toolkit elements and IMS-LD metadata. Work is ongoing in this area.This symposium will be chaired by Professor Conole, Chair in Educational Innovation, who will also present a paper on the initial requirements analysis and top-level design of the toolkit. Dr Christopher Bailey, from the Learning Technologies Group, will describe the technical development of the data model, toolkit processes and user interface. If time and facilities permit, the toolkit will be demonstrated during the session. Dr Sally Priest and Samuel Leung, from the School of Geography, will discuss the user perspective, the benefits of such a toolkit to practitioners, the enabling factors and the barriers to use and their suggestions for further enhancements. The four participants will then debate the effectiveness of this approach to supporting teachers in higher education as they create, discover, re-purpose and share eLearning resources. In chairing the discussion, Professor Conole will outline, and invite the audience to contribute, comparisons with other systems' approaches in this domain
Implicit religion
No full textBegreppet ”implicit religion” infördes i den religionssociologiska debatten 1969 av den brittiske religionsvetaren Edward I Bailey för att definiera innebörden av religion och religiositet i det sekulära västerlandet, och särskilt i Storbritannien. Han preciserade begreppet närmare genom tre nyckelbegrepp: förpliktelse (commitment), integrerande fokuseringar (integrating foci) och intensivt engagemang med omfattande verkningar (intensive concerns with extensive effects). Enligt honom är implicit religion en av tre grundläggande typer av religiös erfarenhet (tillsammans med ”en känsla av helighet” och ”ett möte med det heliga”.Baileys studier visar att religionen i det nutida Västerlandets sekulära miljö består i tron på jagets helighet, på varje människas rätt att vara sig själv och på vikten av att göra gott mot andra med Jesus som etisk förebild
SOME COMMENTS ON EDUCATION FOR ENTREPRENEURSHIP
No full textAuthor stresses the increasing role of education for entrepreneurship within the formal system of education, as well as the importance of individual’s socialization. In formal education technical, economical and legal disciplines are more important, while other forms of socialization should develop courage, innovative attitude, risk acceptance and creativity. Several dimensions of entrepreneurships, defined in theory, are discussed: economic, managerial, innovative and ethical. For each dimensions there are specific forms of education. While some authors suggest that ethical dimension turns into specific form of social entrepreneurship, there is a need for further education in this field too.dimensions of entrepreneurship, formal education, socialization, social entrepreneurship
Pertanggungjawaban Direksi Atas Tindak Pidana Korporasi
No full textCompanies are legal entities (rechtspersoon) which are legal subjects other than humans. Just like humans, companies can also be subject to rights and obligations, and like humans too, companies can be held accountable if they are proven to have made mistakes and caused losses, including liability for criminal acts. The company in its business activities certainly does not operate alone. There is a management who becomes the "captain" for the company to carry out its business activities. One of the managements is the Board of Directors. The author tries to discuss the meaning of corporate crime, the responsibility of the directors in the Limited Liability Company Law for an action in running the company and, after that, the author will discuss the responsibility of the directors for a criminal act committed by the company, commonly referred to as a corporate crime
Communication, Communion and Conflict in the Theologies of Gregory Baum and Patrick Granfield
No full textDegree Awarded: Ph.D. Systematic Theology. The Catholic University of AmericaCommunion, communication, and conflict are interrelated realities of great importance for the life and mission of the church. These realities themselves and the relationships between them are in need of theological refinement and assessment, because conflict necessarily affects the church's ability to communicate the message of salvation, and to experience communion.Within a North American and Roman Catholic context, Canadian theologian Gregory Baum (b.1923) and U.S. theologian Patrick Granfield (1930-2014) present ways of perceiving the relationships between these three realities. Through an analysis of the salient dimensions of their respective theologies, this dissertation explores their respective understandings of the church, and identifies ways in which their approaches complement each other, with particular attention paid to the themes of communion, communication and conflict.Baum reflected on these three realities with respect to the church's life and mission to the world, articulating an ecclesial spirituality. Granfield did so primarily with respect to the church's institutional life. Considering their works together offers a means to deepen the church's experience of the mystery of communion via a renewed approach to its communication of the divine promise, while acknowledging conflict as a force which need not be destructive, but which can be harnessed for creative growth.The works of both men show that the implementation of an ecclesiology of communion in the church today requires an awareness that communion is more than simply a theological notion of union with God, that communication in the church is more than speech alone, and that conflict in the church need not be divisive or destructive. Rather, communion in the church must always be concretely expressed in order to be experienced, communication is the sharing of the whole person, and conflict can be attended to in a way which strengthens communion and does not undermine it. By their attention to these three realities in the church, both Baum and Granfield have provided important reflections, not only on how the church lives and functions, but on how it can remain faithful to its divine calling and mission in a continually challenging and complex era

Assessing cumulative impacts of forest development on the abundance and distribution of furbearers.
No full textFurbearer populations across the central-interior of British Columbia, Canada, are exposed to the cumulative impacts of landscape change, particularly as a result of forest harvesting. I elicited knowledge from furbearer experts to develop habitat models for three furbearer species: fisher (Pekania pennanti), Canada lynx (Lynx Canadensis), and American marten (Martes americana), and applied the models to reference landscapes to quantify changes in habitat availability and quality from 1990 to 2013. Where forest harvesting was extensive, the models predicted substantial declines in habitat for each focal species. I used trapping records and negative binomial count models to investigate the relationship between habitat change and population abundance of lynx and marten. The top-ranked count models identified combinations of trapping effort, trapline area, and habitat availability and quality as having significantly positive effects on capture success. These results demonstrate the utility of expert knowledge for studying cumulative impacts of landscape change on furbearers. --Leaf ii.The original print copy of this thesis may be available here: http://wizard.unbc.ca/record=b200685
