    Sean Thomas Dougherty is an “underground/sound.” Known for his electrifying performances, Dougherty was raised in a politically radical, interracial family by an African-American stepfather and a mother of Eastern-European Jewish descent. He is the author or editor of 12 books across genre including the forthcoming All I Ask for Is Longing (2014) and Sasha Sings the Laundry on the Line (2010). He has received two Pennsylvania Council for the Arts Fellowships in Poetry and a Fulbright Lectureship to the Balkans. He currently works at a pool hall and teaches creative writing part-time at Cleveland State University. Dougherty argues that the ancient and honorable art of poetry is the language of peace. As he says, “Poetry is the opposite of barbed wire.

    Reflections: The relational practice of teaching and learning

    No full text
    In this essay, Meaghan Dougherty reflects upon how research she conducted on social service workers’ transition from post-secondary education to work has influenced her approach to teaching and learning. Drawing parallels to her own transition experiences, she examines how key findings from the research—including transition being a continual process, “not knowing” being an asset, and the importance of truly “being with” others—have important implications for relational practice and pedagogy. Reflecting on her developing approach to teaching and learning, the author encourage educators to rethink the importance of relational processes in educational encounters. Critically questioning our role as educators generates possibilities for social change; we can disrupt ideas about education which are taken for granted and transgress dominant ways of “being” in the classroom.Peer reviewe

    Voice and affect in entangled phenomena: Experimenting with writing voice to promote responsibility

    No full text
    Presented at the 15th International Congress of Qualitative Inquiry, 2019, University of Illinois. This presentation experiments with writing voice as it's been retheorized as emerging from entanglement. Dougherty is interested in how writing this entangled voice may help promote understanding of inseparability, intra-action, and responsibility. Not peer reviewe

    I remember teaching at Seabrook School

    No full text
    In this "I remember" memoir, Olive Dougherty, a second-grade teacher from Seabrook School, recalls her past students. She enjoyed teaching at Seabrook because of her exposure to diverse cultures and backgrounds. Seabrook teachers were encouraged to visit students and their families in their homes, as well as to invite students to their houses. This community closeness helped alleviate the fears of students who initially felt lost and isolated in their new, unfamiliar homes. Ms. Dougherty has stayed in contact with many of her former students, some of whom have become teachers themselves. The Seabrook Educational and Cultural Center has been soliciting current and past residents of Seabrook Farms for an "I remember" project. Residents are asked to create narratives regarding their experiences at Seabrook Farms. These memories help preserve the history and multi-cultural heritage of Seabrook Farms

    Hydraulic evaluation of a denitrifying bioreactor with baffles

    No full text
    Denitrifying ‘woodchip’ bioreactors are an effective conservation practice to reduce nitrate-nitrogen (NO3-N) loss from tile drained agricultural areas. They enhance the naturally occurring denitrification process via the addition of woodchips and maintenance of anoxic conditions. Bioreactors tend to be one of the most cost-effective options for treatment of tile drainage NO3-N, but considering the scale of water quality goals, new approaches to bioreactors are needed to provide the most practical benefit, while limiting the amount of land taken out of production. Current bioreactor design considerations include a bypass flow pipe to prevent significant reduction of drainage capacity in the field. This practical need for a bypass pipe results in a portion of the annual flow volume being untreated which limits a bioreactor’s overall N removal performance. Bioreactors designed to be wider would potentially have greater flow capacity, minimizing this untreated water. To maintain a consistent surface area footprint and not encroach on cropped areas, a wider and shorter bioreactor could use baffles to elongate the flow path, forcing more effective reactor volume utilization. To test this, a new bioreactor (LWD: 16.8 x 10.7 x .91 m; drainage treatment area: 14.2 ha) which included two flow-routing baffles was installed at the University of Illinois Dudley Smith Research Farm (Christian County, IL, USA) in October 2016. A series of potassium bromide conservative tracer tests were performed on this new design during 2018 as well as at three conventionally designed bioreactors to evaluate how the baffles impacted bioreactor hydraulic functioning. This new bioreactor had greater effective volume, lower dispersion, and less short-circuiting compared to the conventionally designed bioreactors. However, this did not necessarily translate into improved NO3-N removal. Overall N load reductions of 23-24% at the edge of the field were similar to many other published studies for bioreactors without baffles. There was 62-64% N removal for water treated in the bioreactor which translated into removal rates of 1.30-1.25 g N m-3 d-1 which were also similar to other studies. Additionally, while this bioreactor was relatively wide to maximize the percentage of flow treated, only 40-41% of the annual flow volume was treated. Although bioreactors are meant for N removal, there was unexpected dissolved P removal (23-24%), mechanisms of which should be investigated further. While the baffles did not lead to increased N removal compared to conventionally designed bioreactors, they did improve bioreactor volume utilization, and thus, the idea of bioreactors with baffles is an idea meriting further exploration at additional sites.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2020-12-01The student, Hannah Dougherty, accepted the attached license on 2018-11-26 at 14:38.The student, Hannah Dougherty, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2018-11-26 at 14:47.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2018-11-27 at 15:20.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #13115 on 2019-02-07 at 14:18:02Made available in DSpace on 2019-02-07T20:36:00Z (GMT).
