    Rosemary Stanton on ethical eating

    No full text
    There once was a time when what to have for dinner was a simple choice, decided by cost and availability. But no longer. In a world with increasingly diminishing resources, eating is now complicated by a range of social, environmental and agricultural concerns. Choosing our food is getting confusing, but here, talking at UTS in Sydney, nutritionist Rosemary Stanton gives some practical advice on ethical eating. She is joined by researcher Dana Cordell, who\u27s been studying the environmental implications of the decreasing supply of phosperous in Australia and the world. The event is chaired by Prof. Stuart White from UTS\u27s Institute for Sustainable Futures, and presented as part of the UTSpeaks Series. Professor Stuart White has been researching sustainability for the last twenty years. In 1998 he was a member of the NSW Task Force on Water Conservation. Dr Rosemary Stanton is a nutritionist and author of numerous books on the topic of healthy eating. She is also a member of the NSW Health Department\u27s Food Advisory Committee. Dana Cordell is a senior researcher and doctoral student at the Institute for Sustainable Futures (ISF) at the University of Technology, Sydney. She is also co-founder of the Global Phosphorus Research Initiative. &nbsp

    Reader, text, and culture: how three agents transact while reading children's picturebooks

    No full text
    This dissertation explores reading, specifically describing the roles of reader, text, and culture in reading events. The study is grounded in the cultural theory of reading, framing reading as a transaction in which reader, text, and culture all act agentively. The study conflates theories of metacognitive reading, narrative conventions, children’s literature, multimodality, and the role of cultural knowledge in reading in order to thoroughly describe each agent’s roles. Data was collected through a think-aloud protocol in which a group of elementary school students individually read and shared their thinking about children’s fictional picturebooks. The readers’ statements while reading were then analyzed quantitatively in terms of the agentive moves made by reader, text, and culture. Data analysis of the agency of readers showed that readers most frequently performed five commonly described reading behaviors: summary, inference, prediction, synthesis, and making connections. The behaviors are further described in terms of their content and patterns of their individual use as well as their use in combination with other behaviors. Data analysis of the role of text demonstrated that that both written text and illustration acted frequently, though written text dominated the transactions. The study presents a catalog of textual conventions that pertain specifically to children’s fictional picturebooks. The study also describes how texts gradually release responsibility to readers. Data analysis of the role of culture demonstrated that genre-related knowledge was the type of extratextual knowledge that most frequently acted in the reading event. Knowledge of specific cultures portrayed in the text had little effect on interpretations. These findings are of potential significance for reading teachers and book publishers. The author suggests questions for future investigation which might clarify or confirm these findings.Ed. D.Includes bibliographical referencesby Rosemary Kin

    The cover art is by Rosemary Gallick. This acrylic painting was created as a reflection on losing a dear colleague, friend, and well known national author who was part of the VCCS. When Bob Bausch passed last year, Rosemary wondered where his feisty energy had gone. Spirits Rising is a hopeful and uplifting artwork that transcends the physical world. Gallick believes that the artwork embraces the theme of New Horizons and visually imagines the possibilities

    Sense of Origins. A Study of New York's Young Italian Americans

    No full text
    In Sense of Origins, the author explores the lives of a significant group of self-identified young Italian Americans residing in New York City and its surrounding areas. The book presents and examines the results of a survey she conducted of their values, family relationships, prejudices and stereotypes, affiliations, attitudes and behaviors, and future perspectives of Italian American culture. The core of the study focuses on self-identification with Italian cultural heritage and analyzes it according to five aspects—physical, personality, cultural, psychological, and emotional/affective. The data provides insights into today’s young Italian Americans and the ways their perception of reality in everyday interactions is affected by their heritage, while shedding light on the value and symbolic references that come with an Italian heritage. Through her rendering of relevant facets that emerge from the study, the author constructs interpretative models useful for outlining the physiognomy and characterization of second, third, fourth, and fifth generations of Italian Americans. In the current climate, questions of ethnicity and migrant identity around the world make Sense of Origins useful not only to the Italian American community but also to the descendants of the innumerable present-day migrants who find themselves living in countries different from those of their ancestors. The book will resonate in future explorations of ethnic identity in the United States

    Y. R. Chao is easily the most famous linguist to have come out of China. Born before the end of the last dynasty in China, he received a traditional Confucian education, but was also one of the first Chinese people to be sent to the West for training in modern Western science (under the Boxer Indemnity Fund). The remarkable breadth and scope of his studies included physics, mathematics, linguistics, musical and literary composition, and translation, and he was a pioneer in many of these fields
