    Facing the Future: the Changing Shape of Academic Skills Support at Bournemouth University

    No full text
    This paper explores the potential impact of changes to higher education in England on student expectations, engagement, lifestyles and diversity, and outlines implications for the development of digital literacy within academic skills support at Bournemouth University (BU). We will investigate how tackling resource constraints with organisational change can also enable efficient, centralised provision of support materials that utilise networks to overcome the risk of fragmented support for digital literacy. We will also look at how changing delivery modes for support can accommodate changing student lifestyles whilst tackling a weakness of centralised support for digital literacy: that it can become detached from the student’s subject-focused academic practice. Finally we will explore how involving students in developing support can help us to face changes to student expectations and engagement whilst ensuring that materials are authentic and speak to learners in their own voice

    Yogi Rohim Aryani. C0305064. 2010. Robert Francis Kennedy’s Moral Criticisms toward American Society and His Support on Minority Groups Non-Violence Actions in 1960s. Thesis. English Department, Faculty of Letters and Fine Arts, Sebelas Maret University, Surakarta. Robert Francis Kennedy was one of the most notable figures in 1960s when the United States of America underwent what was called as a turbulent decade dealing with social and political problems. This research is focused on his role in supporting minority groups non-violence actions so that their human rights could be regained. Robert Kennedy’s support toward these groups was delivered through his speeches and applied on his moral criticisms he held during his career as a politician in 1952 to 1968. The thesis is aimed to find his moral criticisms that were verified through his support toward minority groups non-violence actions in 1960s. The source of data of the research was two speeches spoken by Robert Kennedy in 1968. The main data were taken from the source of data that implied his support toward social condition in the United States in time as well as toward minority groups and their non-violence actions. The main data were then analyzed together with supporting data taken from books, journals, articles and movie. The thesis was a descriptive qualitative research, conducted through the employment of library exploration. The researcher used three approaches as the method to analyze the data and to achieve the goal of the thesis, they were: sociopolitical approach as an approach to find out the urgency between Robert Kennedy’s career as politician and his support toward minority groups actions in 1960s; biographical approach as an approach to comprehend the figure of Robert F. Kennedy so that the researcher was able to discover a background of his moral criticisms; and historical approach as an approach to reveal how social issues existed among society in the United States shaped Robert Kennedy’s moral criticisms and encouraged him to support Black and Latin Americans non-violence actions in 1960s. From the research, it was found that Robert Kennedy gave his criticisms toward three social conditions in the United States in 1960s: on the fear of difference, on the sickness of the soul and on the use of violence. He concluded his criticisms on the concept of society who lived under the rule of law and through his support toward black and Latin American non-violence actions. His support was important in giving black and Latin Americans chance to gain their basic rights as full citizen and guaranteed their future in the country they named their own

    Defending the Possibility of Knowledge

    In this paper, I propose a solution to Fitch’s paradox that draws on ideas from Edgington (Mind 94:557–568, 1985), Rabinowicz and Segerberg (1994) and Kvanvig (Noûs 29:481–500, 1995). After examining the solution strategies of these authors, I will defend the view, initially proposed by Kvanvig, according to which the derivation of the paradox violates a crucial constraint on quantifier instantiation. The constraint states that non-rigid expressions cannot be substituted into modal positions. We will introduce a slightly modified syntax and semantics that will help underline this point. Furthermore, we will prove results about the consistency of verificationism and the principle of non-omniscience by model-theoretical means. Namely, we prove there exists a model of these principles, and delineate certain constraints they pose on a structure in which they are true

    Maximizing Research Impact Through Institutional and National Open-Access Self-Archiving Mandates

    No full text
    No research institution can afford all the journals its researchers may need, so all articles are losing research impact (usage and citations). Articles made “Open Access,” (OA) by self-archiving them on the web are cited twice as much, but only 15% of articles are being spontaneously self-archived. The only institutions approaching 100% self-archiving are those that mandate it. Surveys show that 95% of authors will comply with a self-archiving mandate; the actual expe-rience of institutions with mandates has confirmed this. What institutions and funders need to mandate is that (1) immediately upon acceptance for publication, (2) the author’s final draft must be (3) deposited into the Institutional Repository. Only the depositing needs to be mandated; set-ting access privileges to the full-text as either OA or Restricted Access (RA) can be left up to the author. For articles published in the 93% of journals that have already endorsed self-archiving, access can be set as OA immediately; for the remaining 7%, authors can email the eprint in re-sponse to individual email requests automatically forwarded by the Repository
