G. R. Berridge: Diplomacia. Una historia de las embajadas
No full text"Este es mi canto de cisne", ha escrito G. R. Berridge a propósito de su último libro. Y puede que muchos lo lamenten, aunque no será por aquí -excepto para los entusiastas del asunto-, donde sus libros no han tenido eco, a pesar de su amplísima trayectoria, su sentido del humor y su afiliación en los últimos tiempos a la DiploFoundation. Para que se entienda, mencionaré que su Diplomacy: Theory and Practice (1995) va por la sexta edición y es considerado "uno de los libros de introducción a..

She points out the names of famous heroes of public health inscribed on the School building, as well as discussing some who have different links with the School. History professor at the School, Virginia Berridge adds her thoughts about some of the significant personalities responsible for improving health for all in Britain and all around the world
Aspects of Translation Theory, and Comparison to translation English-Albanian from the author G. R. Berridge, Diplomacy Theory and Practice and Albanian version G. R. Berridge Teoria dhe Praktika
No full textThe main aim of this topic is to provide a full-fledged analysis of the terminology used in the diplomatic field and to achieve this an in-depth analysis of two chapters from two books is elaborated, one is in Albanian Language and the other in English Language. The author of the book is the renowned scholar of diplomacy G. R. Berridge, Diplomacy Theory and Practice and the version in Albanian “Diplomacia, Teoria dhe Praktika”. To achieve a comparison of translation between the Albanian and English version it was necessary to carefully scrutinize and carry out a detailed analysis of translation aspects such as the Importance of Equivalence, Methods of Analysis, Grammatical Structure, Synchronic Approach and Diachronic Approach to the text and to draw the difference between the Political and Administrative Style. In addition to this it was of significant importance to make an ample lexical analysis of the key words and expressions. The misinterpretations of certain words in the diplomatic terminology may aggravate and take the shape of a conflict. So, contribution in this aspect of translation appears to be essential and in relevance to contemporary problematic
Research Review (Chapter 2): Working with Challenging and Disruptive Situations in Residential Child Care: Sharing Effective Practice
No full textAppropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Storyboarding Technique in the Classroom to Address End of Life Experiences in Practice and Engage Student Nurses in Deeper Reflection.
No full textThis paper evaluates the use of storyboarding within a classroom setting as a means of addressing end of life issues and engaging second year student nurses in creative, critical thinking and deeper reflection on practice.
Storyboarding is a process that was developed to encourage learners to use the creative right brain and the critical left brain to formulate ideas in front of a group and then to look at those ideas critically (Lottier, 1986). The session was evaluated using a questionnaire and group discussion to elicit perceived learning from students. The activity was to create the storyboards in small groups, then review the content generated by discussion with the whole group. Main themes identified by the students included breaking bad news, dealing with cardiac arrest situation, coping with families following bereavement and the dying patient. Evaluation of the teaching session suggested that students found storyboarding helped to identify cultural aspects and feelings related to the dying patient. Students valued sharing with each other and the opportunity to have their experiences heard. It was noted that although this method provided as valuable learning experience for the student it is staff and time intensive and attention is required to establish a climate of trust and safety. The risk of exposing unexpected emotions within individual students appears no greater than with other approaches to teaching about loss, death and dying
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Event experiences: design, management and impact
No full textThe papers submitted for this PhD by publication represent research centered on event experiences and their design, management and impact. They are the result of research projects that have produced seven published peer-reviewed papers and one book. The body of work has made an original, significant and sustained contribution towards the development of an emerging field of study in events. The work has made a major contribution towards furthering understanding of the human experience that results from the management of events, their design and their impact.
At the heart of this submission is a consideration for how events are experienced and what factors and components contribute to the depth of that experience. The majority of papers analyses and reflects upon the construction of experience settings (their design) and essentially seeks knowledge to identify the variables that shape any experience of events (Ryan, 2012). In doing so the research undertaken has embraced a less restrictive set of methodologies usually afforded by statistical exercises in favour of a more embodied, immersive and participative approach. This has included not only observation and autoethnography, but also reflection on that which has been observed. In turn this reflection and analysis has drawn upon a range of theories and models to advance understanding of the social occasions that we call events where human interactions with the designed programme and environment illicit a range of responses that may culminate in a memorable and unique moment in time. The research therefore touches upon the emotional response to event experiences, the study and interpretation of the meaning of events, and notably their signification to an intended audience. In the course of this research I have evaluated and reflected upon the study and practice of event management across a range of event types and genres. Seeking to initially clarify the role of design in creating event experience led me to questioning the paradigmatic model for event management and resulted in the development of an alternative consideration for event planning and management - Event Experience Design Framework (EEDF). Unlike existing models this places design as the central and pivotal driving force that inhabits all areas of the event management process and upon which all events should then be based.
The contribution of this body of work can therefore be summarised as follows:
1. Development of a paradigmatic concept that places design as the central and essential practice that underpins the planned event experience.
2. Theoretical positioning of how designing event experiences impacts on stakeholders
3. Recognition and application of theoretical models and tools relevant to event design and creativity, and further use of conceptual models to analyse experiential outcomes
4. Identification and awareness of the broader socio-cultural impact of planned events This submission provides evidentiary material that I have made a positive and meaningful contribution to raising the profile of events through research, teaching and learning by an acknowledged excellence in events management education and as a recognised (and first) National Teaching Fellow in Events. Furthermore, the submission provides a reflection on this research and development that has enabled me to make such a pivotal contribution to the field. It concludes with an outline of plans for the future
