Facing the Future: the Changing Shape of Academic Skills Support at Bournemouth University
No full textThis paper explores the potential impact of changes to higher education in England on student expectations, engagement, lifestyles and diversity, and outlines implications for the development of digital literacy within academic skills support at Bournemouth University (BU). We will investigate how tackling resource constraints with organisational change can also enable efficient, centralised provision of support materials that utilise networks to overcome the risk of fragmented support for digital literacy. We will also look at how changing delivery modes for support can accommodate changing student lifestyles whilst tackling a weakness of centralised support for digital literacy: that it can become detached from the student’s subject-focused academic practice. Finally we will explore how involving students in developing support can help us to face changes to student expectations and engagement whilst ensuring that materials are authentic and speak to learners in their own voice

Analysis of the leadership of Nathan Bedford Forrest.
No full textThis man while never commanding large forces during the Civil War, did operate on many occasions as an independent commander and showed such a marked degree of understanding of tactics and as so successful during his career, that an analysis of him is interesting. In this analysis it will be shown that he possessed all the essential traits that go toward making a military leader. It is said, and truthfully, that he lacked education, both military and otherwise, but it will also be shown that in the case of the successful leader, that finished education is not always essential where the dominant traits are present. Sections include: Forrest the commander, as measured by the principles of war; Forrest as an organizer; Forrest as a direct tactical leader; the strategist; the man; and conclusions
Maximizing Research Impact Through Institutional and National Open-Access Self-Archiving Mandates
No full textNo research institution can afford all the journals its researchers may need, so all articles are losing research impact (usage and citations). Articles made “Open Access,” (OA) by self-archiving them on the web are cited twice as much, but only 15% of articles are being spontaneously self-archived. The only institutions approaching 100% self-archiving are those that mandate it. Surveys show that 95% of authors will comply with a self-archiving mandate; the actual expe-rience of institutions with mandates has confirmed this. What institutions and funders need to mandate is that (1) immediately upon acceptance for publication, (2) the author’s final draft must be (3) deposited into the Institutional Repository. Only the depositing needs to be mandated; set-ting access privileges to the full-text as either OA or Restricted Access (RA) can be left up to the author. For articles published in the 93% of journals that have already endorsed self-archiving, access can be set as OA immediately; for the remaining 7%, authors can email the eprint in re-sponse to individual email requests automatically forwarded by the Repository

The author also situates the artist’s “architectural ceramics” within the context of modernity. References are made to texts by Buckminster Fuller, Georges Bataille and Ignasi de Solà-Morales.
