Interview with Simon Murdoch: Commonwealth Oral History Project
No full textInterview with Simon Murdoch carried out in Wellington on Monday 7th April 2014 as part of the Commonwealth Oral History Project. The project aims to produce a unique digital research resource on the oral history of the Commonwealth since 1965 through sixty oral history interviews with leading figures in the recent history of the organisation. It will provide an essential research tool for anyone investigating the history of the Commonwealth and will serve to promote interest in and understanding of the organisation.

A photovoltaic training facility on the Murdoch University engineering and energy building's north east roof
No full textMurdoch University’s School of Engineering and Energy is expanding its facilities to include a, total of 8.2kWp, Photovoltaic (PV) Training Facility. This facility has incorporated four types of PV modules and equipment, including mono-crystalline, poly-crystalline, amorphous, and copper indium gallium selenide thin film modules; isolated, high frequency isolated, and transformerless inverters; AC and DC test points; emergency stop button system and other safety devices; a battery bank, and power meters.
These facilities will provide a versatile educational resource for students to analyse the behaviours of a wide variety of PV technologies.
This project has examined the process of writing an Invitation To Offer (ITO), reviewing the ITO with recommendations for future engineering projects, and detailing changes in the design of the systems as the project developed.
A recommendation has been detailed in this project for the inclusion of a PV monitoring station, which should monitor environmental parameters at the PV site.
A manual and simulated performance ratio (PR) of all PV systems has been examined in this project. The manual estimate calculated a PR of 0.739 over the period of a year. For the simulated PR, PVSYST software was programmed and calculated a yearly PR of 0.745. This modelling indicates that the system performance would be comparable to similar systems in Perth
Development of the Murdoch Chiropractic Graduate Pledge
No full textPurpose:
This paper reviews the origins of the learned professions, the foundational concepts of professionalism, and the common elements within various healer's oaths. It then reveals the development of the Murdoch Chiropractic Graduate Pledge.
Methods:
A committee comprised of three Murdoch academics performed literature searches on the topic of professionalism and healer's oaths and utilized the Quaker consensus process to develop the Murdoch Chiropractic Graduate Pledge.
Results:
The committee in its deliberations utilized over 200 relevant papers and textbooks to formulate the Murdoch Chiropractic Graduate Pledge that was administered to the 2010 Murdoch School of Chiropractic and Sports Science graduates. The School of Chiropractic and Sports Science included professionalism as one of its strategic goals and began the process of curriculum review to align it with the goal of providing a curriculum that recognizes and emphasizes the development of professionalism.
Conclusions:
The reciting of a healer's oath such as the Hippocratic Oath is widely considered to be the first step in a new doctor's career. It is seen as the affirmation that a newly trained health care provider will use his or her newfound knowledge and skill exclusively for the benefit of mankind in an ethical manner. Born from the very meaning of the word profession, the tradition of recitation of a healer's oath is resurgent in health care. It is important for health care instructors to understand that the curriculum must be such that it contributes positively to the students' professional development
