History of Medicine #22: Send in the Clones? Naomi Mitchison (née Haldane)’s Musing on Reproduction, Breeding, Feminism, Socialism and Eugenics from the 1920s to the 1970s
No full textIn this seminar Lesley Hall investigates the relationship between feminism and eugenics through the fascinating lens of Naomi Mitchison’s fiction. JBS Haldane’s sister, and very much situated at the centre of the eugenic and literary movements of her time, Naomi Mitchison was a prolific author writing path braking historical fiction amongst other works before turning to Science Fiction. Scrutinizing her personal and political lives, this seminar focuses on three of Mitchison’s postwar works in relation to perceptions of breeding and reproduction, namely Memoirs of a Spacewomen (1962), Solution 3 (1975), and Not by Bread Alone (1983). This seminar took place at Oxford Brookes University on 13 November 2012
Using computer to support learning in higher education : studies of students' uses and perceptions of CBL
No full textThe use of computers to assist, support, and resource learning in higher education is increasing. This thesis addresses psychological and educational concerns regarding learning through evaluations of the implementation of computer-based applications in first year psychology, medicine and engineering courses at a single university site. The applications were designed to support a flexible resource-based approach to learning within the curriculum. The studies, reported as a series of cases, were concerned with describing the factors affecting students' uses of the computer applications and their perceptions of the work that they did with them.To this end, the research also involved the development of appropriate method for examining real world study, employing both experimental and open-ended methods. Qualitative and quantitative data were collected and qualitative and quantitative analysis methods employed. Questionnaire data revealed support for attitudes towards computers being related to experiences with computers. Measures taken of approaches to studying proved useful in indicating that the use of one particular package was associated with, and possible promoted surface learning.Interviews, examined through a systematic thematic analysis procedure, revealed some of the factors associated with students' perceptions of the use of computers for learning. These factors, both conceptual and concrete, were manifest in different ways depending upon context, and perceptions of context. The research highlights the importance of attending to context when considering implementing and integrating computers for learning into the curriculum, and recommends 'grounded evaluation' (which involves documenting many features of the context and course) as a thorough and appropriate method for analysing effects of context.</p
