Curriculum in alternative provision: Conversations with senior leaders
No full textData Availability Statement:
The data that support the findings of this study are available on request from the corresponding author. The data are not publicly available due to privacy or ethical restrictions.Over the last four to five years, I've increasingly been reflecting on the role of what were formerly referred to as offsite or pupil referral units. These are now subsumed within a more generic grouping known as alternative provision. My interest has been triggered by the recent publication of ‘Alternative provision in local areas in England: a thematic review’, which, among other things, ‘sets out good practice and highlights particular areas requiring further attention’. This was sufficient stimulus for me to continue my conversations with a small group of school leaders, working in both specialist and mainstream settings, regarding their views on what might best represent effective provision for learners at risk of disengaging from formal education or who have already been excluded from the system

Motion and mobility in the realist novels of Philip K Dick
No full textThis essay explores the ways that ideas of motion and mobility support readings of Philip K Dick's early novels that take full account of the changing geographical context. They are set during a period of rapid suburban expansion, the building of the interstate and the spread of automobility through car ownership, and their characters frequently exist in a state between continuity through conformity and the potential for change. The open ended forms of the novels reflect a world around Dick that was still under construction, and where alternative realities can be glimpsed between incomplete materialities

An introduction to the curvature of surfaces
No full textCurvature is fundamental to the study of differential geometry. It describes different geometrical and topological properties of a surface in R3. Two types of curvature are discussed in this paper: intrinsic and extrinsic. Numerous examples are given which motivate definitions, properties and theorems concerning curvature.M.S.Includes bibliographical references (p. 56)by Philip Anthony Baril
Volume 1: Risk factors for aggression in childhood and adolescence. Volume 2: Selective attention to emotional facial expressions in aggressive adolescent males
No full textThis thesis consists of two volumes. The first is a literature review exploring the development of aggression in adolescent males with a summary of research that outlines a complex multi-factor trajectory across the lifespan towards aggression in males. The literature review focuses on how flawed social cognitive processes act as a proximal mechanism that facilitates aggressive and violent responses during social interactions and how a social information processing model has been proposed to explain aggression in adolescent males. The second paper presents findings for an empirical study of adolescent males with either high or low levels of aggression who completed a visual probe task with emotive facial image stimuli. The paper represents the first study employing a visual probe design with a sample of adolescent males identified with high levels of aggression. Findings revealed evidence of reduced attentional bias to angry expressions (angry) in those with high levels of aggression compared to non-aggressive controls. Implications for social information processing theory are discussed
An analysis of the correspondence and hagiographical works of Philip of Harvengt
No full textFor every famous author of the twelfth-century renaissance, there are numerous lesser-known writers. Despite being overshadowed by more brilliant scholars or those closer to the centre of important events, their voices add depth to the study of the intellectual history of this period. A founding member of one of the earliest Premonstratensian houses; a highly-educated and prolific author, much in demand as a hagiographer; and a vigorous defender of the clerical order, Philip of Harvengt is one such writer, and a worthy subject for study. This thesis examines two bodies of Philip’s works – his letters and his hagiographical writings – analysing the predominant and recurrent concerns and ideals expressed in them, and the means by which they are expressed.
The letters are carefully crafted works, examples of the literary labour which Philip writes is incumbent upon the cleric. The first part of this thesis approaches these letters in chapters on four themes: the role of the ecclesiastical prelate; the importance of learning; the relationship between religious orders; and Philip’s use of the motif of friendship. His hagiographical works, too, are examples of literary artistry, to move as well as to educate the audience. In the second part of the thesis, these will be discussed individually, with the first chapter analysing his vita of Oda, a nun attached to his own house, whom he portrays as a martyr. The succeeding chapters consider Philip’s rewritings of earlier vitae, and show how he managed his sources in order to produce vitae depicting their subjects according to his ideal model of sanctity.
Philip’s letters express concerns shared by contemporaries, reflecting anxieties surrounding roles and ideal forms of living in a period immediately following the first fervour of religious renewal. His hagiographies articulate ideals of sanctity, clarifying these when they are not made sufficiently explicit in earlier works, for the better edification of an audience pursuing this vita perfecta. Both letters and hagiographies are designed to exhort and instruct the reader or listener: above all, Philip is a teacher
