A mixed methods investigation of flow experience in the middle level instrumental music classroom
No full textUniversity of Minnesota Ph.D dissertation. August 2014. Major: Music. Advisor: Dr. Laura K. Sindberg. 1 computer file (PDF); xiii, 269 pages, appendices A-H.ABSTRACT:A Mixed Methods Investigation of Flow Experience in the Middle Level Instrumental Music Classroom Casey J. Clementson - University of Minnesota Flow theory (Csikszentmihalyi, 1990) has potential to frame research on the quality of a student's experience in the classroom. The purpose of this mixed method study was to explore selected factors that may impact a student's frequency of flow experiences in a middle school band and how these flow experiences may relate to achievement and enjoyment. A convergent parallel mixed methods design was employed in which quantitative and qualitative data were collected concurrently, analyzed separately, and then merged. Quantitative data were collected in the form of repeated surveys of students in four classrooms; the qualitative method of inquiry was a case study of an eighth grade band. Results of a hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) analysis indicated that the factors of type of activity, self-determination, and a match between teacher and student perception of a student's self-efficacy were significant predictors of the balance between challenge and skill, or the flow channel. Results from the qualitative data analysis suggested that the teacher and students bring their own values, beliefs, and needs to create an overall band culture. The intent of the band culture is to create intrinsically motivated musicians. A continuum of flow opportunity was theorized; students move back and forth along the continuum based on their individual development. Merged data indicated convergence and divergence between the quantitative and qualitative data. Further research to explore developmentally appropriate and meaningful measures of flow for middle school students is recommended, along with expanding the sample when studying flow experiences (with quantitative, qualitative, or mixed methods designs).Clementson, Casey Jill.

Geografía del corazón: Lugares emblemáticos en la poesía de Carlos Clementson
No full textThis book was born out of a friendship that has lasted for over fifty years, and it is dedicated to that same friendship, which continues to await good news from a distance. In it, the author and the book\u27s intended recipient, Carlos Clementson Cerezo, share an age that enables them to view life through the lens of waiting, and to appreciate the beauty of memory, nostalgia and absence. Although this volume could have been written earlier, perhaps it was only now that the author was able to interweave friendship, emotion and literary doctrine with such maturity. The work has been reworked several times until everything fell into place, as if it were a skilfully woven message in the recovery of time. During this process, the author discovered the ideal space in which to write it, combining modern theory and criticism under the guidance of a reasoned tradition. Thus, using materials provided by the friend and professor, spaces are created — some idealised — where the heart can express itself freely and pay homage to the great poet lorquino-cordobés, whose expansive, Mediterranean words transport the listener to a primitive state characterised by austere melancholy and Córdoba philosophy. This book vindicates humanism in postmodernity — a constant search for the murmurs born in childhood, alongside the marine myth of Calabardina, and in the sonorous kingdom of the orchard of La Rueda. The sea, land and sky of the poet\u27s childhood are evoked here through the mature resignation of age as he reads the kind words written about him with emotion.Este libro nace de una amistad que se prolonga por más de cincuenta años y se dirige a esa misma amistad que, desde la distancia, sigue aguardando buenas noticias. En él, tanto su autor como su primer destinatario, Carlos Clementson Cerezo, comparten una edad que permite contemplar la vida desde la espera, en la belleza del recuerdo, la nostalgia y la ausencia. Aunque este volumen pudo haberse escrito antes, acaso no fue sino hasta ahora cuando su autor logró entrelazar con madurez amistad, emoción y doctrina literaria. Se trata de una obra reelaborada en distintas ocasiones, hasta que todo encajó, como si se tratase de un mensaje hábilmente hilvanado en la recuperación del tiempo. En este proceso, el autor halló el espacio propicio, casi mágico, para su composición, combinando teoría y crítica modernas bajo la guía de una tradición razonada. Así, con los materiales que brinda el amigo profesor, se construyen espacios —algunos de ellos idealizados— donde el corazón puede manifestarse libremente y rendir homenaje al gran poeta lorquino-cordobés, cuya palabra amplia y mediterránea conduce a quien la escucha a un estado primigenio habitado por la melancolía austera y la filosofía cordobesa. Este libro reivindica el humanismo en la posmodernidad, una búsqueda constante de los murmullos nacidos en la infancia junto al mito marino de Calabardina y en el reino sonoro del huerto de la Rueda. Mar, tierra y cielo de la niñez del poeta se evocan aquí desde la resignación madura de la edad, mientras lee, emocionado, las palabras amigas que sobre él se escriben

Moral Hazard and Guarantee Arrangements: A Case Study of Lloyd’s
No full textState guarantees to insurance policy-holders remove the need for counterparty credit risk assessment and create a moral hazard that may result in excessive risk-exposure and underpricing in the insurance industry. The arrangements at Lloyd’s guaranteeing payment on policies written by individual Lloyd’s syndicates can be expected to have similar effects. An analysis of the behaviour of Lloyd’s in the 1970s and 1980s provides a case study that demonstrates some of the practical consequences of this moral hazard: insurers with insufficient capital resources, excessive exposure to high-volatility catastrophe reinsurance business, and underpricing of risks.

Las olas y los años: (Nueva antología poética, 1964-2025)

It also covers the broadest period and best reveals the variety, evolution, and extraordinary originality of his lyrical voice. With a foreword by Professor Bernd Dietz, this anthology offers an excellent opportunity to delve into the dazzling creative world of Carlos Clementson.Aunque a lo largo del tiempo han ido apareciendo otras antologías de su obra poética, siempre limitadas a una muestra tan selecta como restringida, estamos ante la recopilación más ambiciosa y representativa que se haya realizado, en este caso gracias al criterio del propio autor.
