David Bowie is ... The man who fell to earth
No full textInternational audienceAs a contribution to the symposium on Cinema and Psychiatry, the author proposes to question the paradigm of the humanoid - here, an extra-terrestrial being. How strangeness, associated with difference and furthermore with psychopathology, especially in the psychoses, can be grasped through their representation in cinema? Living through moments of depersonalization and derealisation, Thomas Jerome Newton alias David Bowie in the title role of Nicolas Roeg's The Man Who Fell to Earth (1974) is torn by dilemma - his irreductible strangeness is due to two irreconcilable and incompatible worlds - his planet of origin, Anthea and the Earth he fell to.

Designing effective, contemporary assessment on a flipped educational sciences course
No full textCaroline Fell Kurban (MEF Author)Evidence shows flipped learning increases academic performance and student satisfaction. Yet, often practitioners flip instruction but keep traditional curricula and assessment. Assessment in higher education is often via written exams. But these provide limited feedback and do not ask students to put knowledge into practice. This does not support the tenets of flipped learning. For two years, the author flipped instruction but retained traditional curricula and assessment. However, on the author’s current course, all three aspects were redesigned to better support flipped learning. The aim of this research is to test the effectiveness of this redesign regarding student engagement and satisfaction. Thus, it is asked: How, on this course, can meaningful, continuous assessment be provided as well as effective, personalized feedback, while staying in line with the philosophy of flipped learning? Action research took place from September 2016 to June 2017. Quantitative data from a student survey, and qualitative data from a research diary and student focus group were gathered. What emerged is: a little-and-often assessment approach is effective for learning and engagement; tasks must be authentic and test demonstration of knowledge, not memory; quality, not quantity, is key for student learning; and students desire individualized feedback. © 2018, © 2018 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.WOS:0004876354000112-s2.0-85054474311Social Sciences Citation IndexArticleUluslararası işbirliği ile yapılmayan - HAYIRKasımYÖK - 2019-2
Flipped leadership: transparency, vision, accountability, and resources
No full textMuhammed ŞahinCaroline Fell Kurban (MEF Author)As a founding rector of a new institution establishing itself as a fully Flipped university, both the university and I found ourselves in a unique position. Instead of a challenging, change-management process whereby buy in was needed from each stakeholder, all the staff, instructors, and students that started at MEF had come knowing that the education would be Flipped and had agreed to be a part of this approach. From a leadership point of view, this was indeed a privileged position to be in. However, it does not mean that there were not some teething problems along the way. Three main issues arose during the first year including; instructors’ expectations and the clarity of the MEF vision; issues related to the physical infrastructure; as well as questions about assessment.WOS:000414788100008Book Citation Index- Social Sciences and HumanitiesArticle; Book ChapterKasımYÖK - 2016-1

On Paper, Lines & Puffs of Language
No full textThe film "On Paper, Lines & Puffs of Language" is a short film exploring connections between paper, language and space. It was created in collaboration with Jasper Fell-Clark, through funding from The Box Plymouth's Artists Development Bursary scheme. The Box awarded six development bursaries to artists from across the South West in 2021. The artists used the bursaries to support ongoing or existing projects and/or research.

300-word supporting statement for ‘On Paper, Lines & Puffs of Language’ [video]; ‘Little Clouds: Speech Balloons & the Air of Language’ [book chapter]; ‘Remembering Air’ [works for an exhibition]:
This body of work further explored my interest in orality, breath and air, through a repositioning of the subject within an ecologically-conscious practice. Both studio-practice and writing examined the speech balloon and the cloud, unfolding our existing understanding of each, through a detailed breakdown from multiple viewpoints. The work was underpinned by the theories of ecologist/philosopher David Abram, concerning speech as shaped-air and the dichotomy of writing’s significance in ‘civilizing’ humans, whilst simultaneously contributing to our distancing from the natural world. Ludwig Wittgenstein’s concept of ‘Aspect Change’ – the ability to see one thing in multiple ways – was also a bedrock concept.
Funding through an Artist’s Development Bursary from The Box, Plymouth facilitated a 4-week artist’s residency at ‘Allotment Club’ (Penryn) which provided research time and space, fundamental in achieving a variety of explorative artistic/written/filmic outputs. It also supported the creation of the film ‘On Paper, Lines & Puffs of Language’ with film-maker Jasper Fell-Clark – for me a new way of documenting my practice – and the delivery of a paper at ‘Symposium on Aspect Change’, HBK Bern, Switzerland, 2021.
The book ‘Atlas of Aspect Change’ is sold in outlets worldwide and my article appeared alongside contributions from a diverse and respected array of designers/artists/writers/thinkers. Tine Melzer, its editor, asserts Aspect Seeing’s importance beyond arts and literary practices, because it allows us to transfer single truths into a conscious spectrum of meanings, suggesting its value not only as an essential cultural tool, but I propose, as a means for more empathetic modes of seeing and thinking.
Residencies at Allotment Club between 2019–2021 (of which I was one) demonstrated a lineage of reputable artists, and a need for residencies allowing connection and reflection upon nature, helping secure ACE funding (by Georgia Gendall) for a subsequent residency scheme in 2023, in which I was a mentor

How the CEPHEI E-course Syllabus Design Was Developed and Implemented
No full textWhile the digitalization of education has been around since the 1990s, it is only since the Covid-19 pandemic that it has really taken hold in education, when universities were forced to rapidly move online and traditional patterns of teaching were no longer viable. This pushed universities to provide a blended learning environment drawing on technologies that our students, as digital natives, had already been using on a daily basis for some time. However, blended learning is only effective if underpinned by tried and tested learning frameworks—something that many universities were not prepared for when the shift to online learning took place. The Cooperative e-learning Platform for Industrial Innovation (CEPHEI) however, was already prepared and ready for this shift, as from 2017 it had been working on the development of an e-learning platform with the aim of digitizing education while also integrating the reality of professional innovation activities into the context of education according to the demands of industry. To achieve this aim, one of the first phases of the project was to identify key learning frameworks for e-course syllabus design, based on existing research, that could be used to provide recommendations for instructors in the development of their CEPHEI courses. This chapter presents the culmination of this process and provides a framework that can be used by instructors or institutions wishing to design e-learning courses. To make these frameworks tangible for the reader, examples are given throughout the chapter from an undergraduate environmental engineering course in a civil engineering department. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.2-s2.0-8515284797
Revisiting Taiwan and Chinese Nationalism: Identity and Status in International Society
No full textIt would be nice to be able to claim that Taiwan and Chinese Nationalism: Identity and Status in International Society was the result of a well-thought-out research plan. A more honest account is that it was the outcome of the author being lucky enough to be in the right place and at the right time. This makes it very much a snapshot of Taiwan at a particularly exciting period in its own political history, which occurred as the world entered the post-Cold War period
