    How easy is it being "green" in sustainable housing? Residents experiences with smart housing design

    No full text
    Minimising the impact of domestic housing on the environment is an important focus for planners and designers of sustainable homes, however little is known about how consumers interact with and view sustainable housing design. With research indicating consumer reluctance towards the uptake of sustainable or "smart housing", this project was designed to monitor the day-to-day experiences of living in a Smart House. Research House in Rockhampton, Queensland has been a living laboratory over two years (2002-2004), called "home" by two adults. They shared their experiences of living in a smart house, interacting daily with sustainable housing design. This paper investigates the functional aspects of adaptation to living in smart housing. The focus is on resident's satisfaction with the design and physical layout of the house, specifically the surface design, airflow, natural lighting, access, security and spaciousness. Findings from this study contribute to evaluations of the impact of eco-friendly housing, providing consumer feedback and perceptions of smart house design after prolonged firsthand experience

    A change of habitus: Working-class students and educational success

    No full text
    For students from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds, the cultures of secondary schools can be alienating and the schooling experience can be traumatic in various ways. For such students to complete senior secondary school and enter university can be considered quite a remarkable success. As the coordinator of a university access program targeting low socio-economic students, I wanted to find out from those who had made a successful transition to university how they dealt with their high school environments. This paper summarises some of the research done with a group of students participating in the access program and takes some of their comments to exemplify their common experiences. Through their anecdotes and insights, a pattern or trajectory emerged which has relevance for discussions of the deterministic nature of habitus. This paper is intended to illustrate the possibility that individual habitus can change through conscious effort but that change may come at a high price

    Yassou, Souvlakia and Paniyiri: Adapting Greek Culture for Australians

    No full text
    Historically the Greeks have always travelled. Their foundation myths point to epic sea voyages of discovery, take for instance the travels of Odysseus or Jason’s voyage in the Argo in search of the Golden Fleece.1 Seafaring and venturing abroad became part of the Greek way of life, a normal way of settling excess population or providing opportunities for younger sons. From the earliest European contact Greek sailors and ship-owners visited Australia and carried home fantastic stories of the New World. The most infamous Greeks were seven pirates who had the temerity to attack a British warship in the Mediterranean and found themselves transported to New South Wales in 1829. Small numbers of Greeks arrived during the nineteenth century gold rushes, but, in general, they looked for steady business opportunities rather than speculative ventures

    Windschuttle at War: The Politics of Historiography in Australia

    No full text
    Keith Windschuttle unleashed a storm of controversy with the publication of The Fabrication of Aboriginal History: Volume One, Van Diemen’s Land, 1803-1847 (2002; reprinted with corrections 2003). In a series of events unusual for works of this kind, Windschuttle’s book received considerable media exposure: almost immediately it became the focal point of impassioned debate. The debate moreover continues and promises to be with us for some time. The Fabrication is in fact the first of a projected series of volumes in which the author proposes to reexamine the early history of relations between White settlers and the indigenous populations of Australia (Windschuttle, 2003c: 3-4). The title Windschuttle chose for the book says a great deal about its contents. While purporting to rewrite a chapter of early Australian history, Windschuttle is in fact more concerned with examining recent Australian historiography. The Fabrication derives its power from being an act of accusation. Windschuttle’s real intent is to expose what he sees as gross malpractice within the Australian historical profession. His chief accusation is that a number of leading academic historians—including Lyndall Ryan and Henry Reynolds—have falsified the picture of race relations in early Australia. They have, according to Windschuttle, unduly over-emphasized conflict and violence as their main themes in discussing relations between Whites and Blacks. Windschuttle criticizes Ryan for using the term genocide to describe settler behavior towards the indigenous Tasmanians (Windschuttle, 2003c: 4, 13; Ryan, 1996: 255). He chastises Reynolds for depicting the Tasmanian Aborigines as engaged in a guerrilla war to defend their lands against the White invaders. He deplores the way both historians stress that British settlement of Tasmania proceeded through a process of physical elimination of the native populations

    Problematics in young people as researchers: Visions and voices

    No full text
    While during the past twenty years working with young people has witnessed the rise of a movement involving young people in the planning and conduct of formal and genuine research activities, the methodology is still under-theorised and under-utilised. In a previous publication (Bland & Atweh, 2003), we discussed some theoretical foundations for the involvement of students in meaningful educational research based on critical theory and its later developments in the writings of Habermas. In this paper, we will discuss in detail the question of “voice‿ arising from collaborative projects with young people. We will refect on our experiences from one specific collaborative project with high school students that has been going on at the Queensland University of Technology for the past 12 years. The first section of the paper will provide the vision behind collaborative research projects with young people, concentrating on those conducted in educational settings. This will be followed by a short description of the Student Action Research for University Access (SARUA) project involving staff of the Faculty of Education and numerous high school students and their teachers in metropolitan Brisbane. The third section will problematise the question of “voice‿ as we struggled with this concept in the planning and conduct of this project

    Intermolecular C-H bond activation reactions promoted by transient titanium alkylidynes. Synthesis, reactivity, kinetic, and theoretical studies of the Ti C linkage

    No full text
    The neopentylidene-neopentyl complex (PNP)(TiCHBu)-Bu-t((CH2Bu)-Bu-t) (2;PNP- = N[2-P(CHMe2)(2)-4-methylphenyl](2)), prepared from the precursor (PNP)(TiCHBu)-Bu-t(OTf) (1) and (LiCH2Bu)-Bu-t, extrudes neopentane in neat benzene under mild conditions (25 degrees C) to generate the transient titanium alkylidyne, (PNP)(TiCBu)-Bu-t (A), which subsequently undergoes 1,2-CH bond addition of benzene across the TiC linkage to generate (PNP)(TiCHBu)-Bu-t(C6H5) (3). Kinetic, mechanistic, and theoretical studies suggest the C-H activation process to obey pseudo-first-order in titanium, the alpha-hydrogen abstraction to be the rate-determining step (KIE for 2/2-d(3) conversion to 3/3-d(3) = 3.9(5) at 40 degrees C) with activation parameters Delta H = 24(7) kcal/mol and Delta S = -2(3) cal/mol center dot K, and the post-rate-determining step to be C-H bond activation of benzene (primary KIE = 1.03(7) at 25 degrees C for the intermolecular C-H activation reaction in C6H6 vs C6D6). A KIE of 1.33(3) at 25 degrees C arose when the intramolecular C-H activation reaction was monitored with 1,3,5-C6H3D3. For the activation of aromatic C-H bonds, however, the formation of the sigma-complex becomes rate-determining via a hypothetical intermediate (PNP)(TiCBu)-Bu-t(C6H5), and C-H bond rupture is promoted in a heterolytic fashion by applying standard Lewis acid/base chemistry. Thermolysis of (3) in C6D6 at 95 degrees C over 48 h generates 3-d(6), thereby implying that 3 can slowly equilibrate with A under elevated temperatures with k = 1.2(2) x 10(-5) s(-1), and with activation parameters Delta H = 31(16) kcal/mol and Delta S = 3(9) cal/mol.K. At 95 degrees C for one week, the EIE for the 2-3 reaction in 1,3,5-C6H3D3 was found to be 1.36(7). When 1 is alkylated with LiCH2SiMe3 and KCH2Ph, the complexes (PNP)(TiCHBu)-Bu-t(CH2SiMe3) (4) and (PNP)(TiCHBu)-Bu-t(CH2Ph) (6) are formed, respectively, along with their corresponding tautomers (PNP)TiCHSiMe3((CH2Bu)-Bu-t) (5) and (PNP)TiCHPh((CH2Bu)-Bu-t) (7). By means of similar alkylations of (PNP)TiCHSiMe3(OTf) (8), the degenerate complex (PNP)TiCHSiMe3(CH2SiMe3) (9) or the non-degenerate alkylidene-alkyl complex (PNP)TiCHPh(CH2SiMe3) (11) can also be obtained, the latter of which results from a tautomerization process. Compounds 4/5 and 9, or 6/7 and (11), also activate benzene to afford (PNP)TiCHR(C6H5) (R = SiMe3 (10), Ph (12). Substrates such as FC6H5, 1,2-F2C6H4, and 1,4-F2C6H4 react at the aryl C-H bond with intermediate A, in some cases regioselectively, to form the neopentylidene-aryl derivatives (PNP)(TiCHBu)-Bu-t(aryl). Intermediate A can also perform stepwise alkylidene-alkyl metatheses with 1,3,5-Me<INF>3</INF>C<INF>6</INF>H<INF>3</INF>, SiMe<INF>4</INF>, 1,2-bis(trimethylsilyl)alkyne, and bis(trimethylsilyl)ether to afford the titanium alkylidene-alkyls (PNP)TiCHR(R') (R = 3,5-Me<INF>2</INF>C<INF>6</INF>H<INF>2</INF>, R' = CH<INF>2</INF>-3,5-Me<INF>2</INF>C<INF>6</INF>H<INF>2</INF>; R = SiMe<INF></INF>, R' = CH<INF>2</INF>SiMe<INF>3</INF>; R = SiMe<INF>2</INF>CCSiMe<INF>3</INF>, R' = CH<INF>2</INF>SiMe<INF>2</INF>CCSiMe<INF>3</INF>; R = SiMe<INF>2</INF>OSiMe<INF>3</INF>, R' = CH<INF>2</INF>SiMe<INF>2</INF>OSiMe<INF>3</INF>)
