Rewriting our comments and revisiting revision practices: new concepts for sustainable instruction in the writing classroom
No full textThe driving instructional tool in the majority of writing classrooms, comments, is failing students and instructors because comments are a tool, and not a technique. The utility of comments within the writing classroom is only as strong as its pairing with other instructional techniques. Using comments to teach comments is a flawed method of instruction, and if instructors want to properly use comments within their classes, they must first show their students how to use these techniques in improving their writing. Thus far, the focus of facilitating student revision and student growth within writing classrooms has been on the study of specific comments written by instructors on student papers. The study of such comments reveals the differences in styles, modes, and voices projected from those instructors, but it does reveal much about the intended goal of such comments, the advancement of student writing. Looking back on previous research and incorporating a multifaceted approach to revision helps to build sustainable writing instruction. A review of literature of comments suggests placing students in the center of the classroom by enabling students to take control over the revisions of their own work. This process cannot be done without teaching students how to do things with comments and how to use comments to their advantage. Starting from Joseph Harris’ Rewriting, the same steps toward revision which Harris suggests of students should be copied and applied to the way in which instructors facilitate such revision within the classroom. The improvement of student writing requires several steps which target particular issues with the status quo of commenting, and the use of Harris’ text will enable us to identify the steps. Incorporating revision into the classroom, inviting students into conversation about their text, and opening the lines of communication can help improve revision practices in writing classrooms. Through incorporating a new mastery model within the writing classroom, a technique that begins to show students how comments are made and what to do with them, students can begin to internalize the many processes which they can apply to any writing. The teacher’s goal is to help the student internalize the concepts and apply without the direct instruction of the teacher; however, many writing classrooms have lost this focus. If teachers refocus the classroom on the process of writing and even the process of editing and revising, students will become not just stronger students but writers. Adjustments in the writing classroom cannot occur overnight, but incorporating revision techniques into the course will eventually pay off as students learn to revise their work. These techniques, although not new, can prepare students for writing outside the composition classroom.M. A.Includes bibliographical referencesby Roni L. Bie
Dialettica della durata e vita intima. Attualità di Bergson tra accelerazione del tempo e alienazione sociale
No full textIn this paper the Author focuses on the legacy of dialectics through Bergson’s considerations about time and language, recalling two great interpreters of his philosophy: Giuseppe Prezzolini and Gaston Bachelard. If for the former the «philosophy of contingency» enhances the transformation of social reality, preserving, in consonance with Victor Egger’s
book La parole intérieure, the freedom of inner language, the latter proposes a break of the Bergsonian temporal continuity by opting for a plural and discontinuous duration. Thanks to these readings, it is possible to discover the temporal dialectic which regulates contemporary societies, that is, the acceleration of time and the contraction of memory, in order to develop a more humane way of living time and, consequently, to decline the problem of intersubjectivity in an intercultural perspective

Publisher Copyright: © 2023, The Author(s).Transforming long-term conflicts into peaceful intergroup relations is one of the most difficult challenges for humanity. Such meaningful social changes are often driven by young people. But do young people living in contexts of long-term conflicts believe that change is even possible? In a series of six studies (Ntotal = 119,671) over two decades and across two unrelated intractable conflicts in Israel/Palestine and Cyprus, we found that younger (compared to older) generations from both respective rival groups have less hope for peace, and consequently less conciliatory attitudes. We also show that this gradual improvement of peace-promoting emotions and attitudes with increasing age can be experimentally accelerated in young people through a virtual reality-based aging simulation. These findings provide a new perspective on the fundamental question of why long-term conflicts are so difficult to resolve and highlight the importance of instilling hope in young generations to advance peace processes.Peer reviewe
Leon Garfield
No full textThrough his historical novels, adventure stories, ghost stories, satires, fairy tales, and retellings of myths and legends, Leon Garfield consistently portrays the mystery of human identity, which he describes as "the only mystery one can unravel endlessly." In this first book-length study of the author of Smith (1967), The Apprentices (1976), John Diamond (1981), and The December Rose (1986), Roni Natov engagingly chronicles the career of a natural storyteller, a man whose work is permeated with the theme of spiritual renewal
A novel mutation in the endosomal Na+/H+ exchanger NHE6 (SLC9A6) causes Christianson syndrome with electrical status epilepticus during slow-wave sleep (ESES)
No full textMutations in the solute carrier family 9, subfamily A member 6 (SLC9A6) gene, encoding the endosomal Na+/H+ exchanger 6 (NHE6) are associated with Christianson syndrome, a syndromic form of X-linked intellectual disability characterized by microcephaly, severe global developmental delay, autistic behavior, early onset seizures and ataxia. In a 7-year-old boy with characteristic clinical and neuroimaging features of Christianson syndrome and epileptic encephalopathy with continuous spikes and waves during sleep, we identified a novel splice site mutation (IVS10-1G>A) in SLC9A6. These findings expand the clinical spectrum of the syndrome and indicate NHE6 dysfunction as a new cause of electrical status epilepticus during slow-wave sleep (ESES). (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

The Enemy Within: Radicalization, Extremism, and the Profession of Arms
No full textThere is a long history of military members engaging in acts of political extremism and the problem has grown in recent years. Because the military is responsible for carrying out violence on behalf of the state, servicemembers must undergo socialization into the military culture and train to engage in combat. With this necessary embrace of a militant culture and acquisition of combat skills, it is perhaps unsurprising that military members would be involved in political violence. This raises several questions regarding extremism and military personnel. First, what aspects of military service and culture may explain the association between military members and political extremism? Existing theories of radicalization and extremism do not sufficiently explain this correlation, requiring further exploration. Furthermore, both servicemembers’ experiences and the rates of extremism differ across and within the military branches. How do servicemembers’ unique experiences within the military help explain why some servicemembers radicalize while others do not?
To answer these questions, I introduce a novel database of instances of military extremism, the Military Extremist Database, and the Social Theory of Military Extremism, which argues the profession of arms involves many experiences associated with extremism that may increase the risk of radicalization among servicemembers; differences across and within the military branches affect the degree of impact these factors have on an individual servicemember and thus their likelihood of radicalization. First, through socialization into the hypermasculine military culture, servicemembers adopt a martial identity defined by a warrior ethos. This identity heightens perceptions of group threats, increases willingness to use violence, and is associated with extremist ideologies like white supremacy, conspiratorial thinking, and religious fundamentalism. The militant warrior ethos also imbues a sense of separation, superiority, or even supremacy relative to the civilian public. These effects are particularly strong among the Marine Corps and the Special Forces community.
Second, military culture fosters a form of “band of brothers” social cohesion which is also associated with extremism. Strong social bonds drive an in-group/out-group mentality, facilitate group deviancy, provide opportunities for connection with extremist individuals, and create avenues for recruitment into extremist organizations. This research shows Army and Air Force combat personnel are more likely to join extremist organizations and extremists from the Marine Corps are most likely to have social ties to other radicalized Marines.
Third, the government entrusts the military to carry out violence on its behalf and combat is a significant part of military culture. Training for and engaging in combat relies on dehumanization, disengagement of moral barriers, and desensitization to violence, all of which are associated with extremism. This analysis demonstrates servicemembers who train for combat are more likely to be extremists than those who train for non-combat positions, whether they engage in combat or not. Individuals who participate in combat are more likely to be extremist than non-combat servicemembers. Lastly, combat-related post-traumatic stress is associated with an increased likelihood of extremism among military personnel.
Finally, the Department of Defense cites the oath of office and its fidelity to the Constitution as a bulwark against extremist activity. The military, however, is failing to adequately educate its members on the oath, which has turned it into a liability. This is particularly true for the Navy and Marine Corps. Extremist organizations and bad actors are manipulating the oath to entice military members towards extremist activity.
To adequately combat extremism within the ranks, and after, the Department of Defense needs a multifaceted approach that addresses each of these concerns This research provides policy recommendations to tackle the problem of extremism while preserving the military’s ability to carry out is mission of national defense.Public Polic
Island zombie Iceland writings
No full text"Roni Horn (b. 1955) is a prominent contemporary artist known for her sculptures, photography, and installations inspired by landscape and the natural world, and especially the isolated landscapes of Iceland, where she has travelled and lived for substantial periods of time since the early 1970s. Horn's work explores geology and climate; the interplay of nature, art, and place; and the relationships between words, appearance, androgyny, and the self. Horn is author of more than twenty books and artist's books, and is herself the subject of more than thirty books and exhibition catalogs, including a survey published by Phaidon and many by Steidl. Examples of her work include You Are the Weather (1994-96), a series of photographs of a young woman bathing in Icelandic hot springs; Pair Objects (1988), identical metal sculptures placed in two different locations; and the installation Library of Water (2007) in Iceland, with columns that enclose water from melting glaciers. Horn is arguably the most important visual chronicler of the landscape of Iceland. Upon graduating from her MFA program at Yale, she traveled to Iceland, journeying across its interior on a motorcycle. Over thirty years, she has continually returned to Iceland to explore and record the astonishing beauty of its geology, climate, and culture. This book will contain a range of texts, from evocative vignettes to illustrated essays written for Iceland's most widely-read newspaper. A combination of artists' writings and travelogue, the texts reveal Iceland as one of Horne's most important influences and inspirations, and record a unique and beautiful environment undergoing climate change"-
