The idea as a mechanism in language teacher development
No full textIn recent decades two broad but distinguishable approaches to language teacher development have predominated: an informing approach based largely on the transmission of principles of new theory and method; and a responsive approach centering on teachers’ understanding of their own practice. Our study offers the notion of the Idea, as an element of input that can inspire teachers and be appropriated for their own practice, as a means of synthesising the two traditions. Evidence that teacher learning operates at the level of the Idea is presented on the basis of literature, and also from two case studies which examine teacher learning across different language teacher language learning contexts. Based on the observations of the case studies, the paper offers a fully useable characterisation of the Idea, offering the notion as a crucial concept for language teacher development

Also By The Same Author: AKTiveAuthor, a Citation Graph Approach to Name Disambiguation
No full textThe desire for definitive data and the semantic web drive for inference over heterogeneous data sources requires co-reference resolution to be performed on those data. In particular, name disambiguation is required to allow accurate publication lists, citation counts and impact measures to be determined. This paper describes a graph-based approach to author disambiguation on large-scale citation networks. Using self-citation, co-authorship and document source analyses, AKTiveAuthor clusters papers, achieving precision of 0.997 and recall of 0.818 over a test group of eight surname clusters
Southern Thailand: from conflict to negotiations?
No full textSummary: In this Analysis, University of Leeds professor Duncan McCargo argues that the recent Malaysian-backed Southern Thai peace initiative has now run into some serious problems. He argues that despite its various shortcomings the initiative is still worthy of support, since it has gained far more traction that any previous attempts to address the decade-long insurgency. Thailand needs to maintain focus on the southern conflict despite its current preoccupation with a national-level political crisis that threatens to topple the government of Yingluck Shinawatra.
Key findings
The conflict in Southern Thailand is one of Asia’s most serious insurgencies, with over 6,000 dead over the last 10 years.
The Malaysian government sponsored negotiations represents the best hope for reaching a political settlement and bringing peace to the region.
However, both sides need to show greater commitment to the negotiations, introducing new structures and procedures

HISTORY/REALITY:Roddy Hunter: "RE-RECORDING", Solo Performance, DJCAD, Dundee
No full textPerformance Venue: Matthew Gallery South, DJCAD, Dundee, UKPerformance Date: 3 April 2024 - 4 April 2024Curated by Bodor 'R E - R E C O R D I N G' by Roddy Hunter was a dual monitor video work with live performance investigating Pete Horobin's 'Digestive Biscuit Action' (1986) work, in which he recorded himself on video in the attic flat of 27 Union Street, Dundee, between 12:30-2:22 pm on 29 March 1986 attempting to eat an entire pack of digestive biscuits, dedicating each one to a person who had corresponded with him so far that year. Hunter's response work is a meditation on personal and cultural history and an observation of the economy and politics of everyday reality. Hunter replayed the 1986 footage video on a vintage CRT monitor while recording himself preparing and repeating the attempt to eat a packet of digestive biscuits on the MiniDV vintage digital video format while silently dedicating each one to a person of significance in his own life. The video output of the performance provided a basis for a new split-screen video work incorporating footage of Haining's 1986 performance with Hunter's in 2024, to be exhibited in later online and offline exhibitions and archives on the web-platform developed as key output for the research network project.RODDY HUNTER (1970, Glasgow) is an artist, educator, writer and curator, working mainly in performance, conceptual and new media art. The performance and dual monitor installation happened on 4th April from 5 -7 pm as part of a performance and public engagement event of HISTORY/REALITY: An Attic Archive Installation (3-4 April 2024, Matthew Galleries South, DJCAD, University of Dundee). The event was curated to explore the archive's relevancy to contemporary audiences through new artworks made by artists from different generations and different knowledge of the Attic Archive.The exhibition and event coincided with the first international research network meeting of Curating The Digital Attic Archive: A Case Study For Open-Source Approaches To Artists’ Archive project (led by Bodor as PI and Hunter as Co-I) hosted in Scotland (DJCAD/University of Dundee Archives and National Library of Scotland, Edinburgh).The work was recorded on photographs and film and will be made accessible as a two-screen video piece on the research project's web platform as Output in 2025.<br/
