Brielle: Behind the Headlines A Cross-Cultural Docuseries Creation
No full textabstract: As a student at Arizona State University’s Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Barrett, The Honors College, as well as a lover of travel, Brielle Ashford decided to combine her passions and spent four months abroad in Spring, 2019, creating a senior thesis in digital international journalism. She enrolled in the Center for Intercultural Educational Exchange's Open Campus program for a semester and spent a month and a half each in three countries. Starting in Cape Town, South Africa, she interviewed locals about their lives post-Apartheid. In Paris, France, Brielle found a story in a non-profit that teaches French youth about religious diversity. Lastly in Rome, Italy, she covered the famous, vibrant food culture of gelato at the city’s oldest gelateria. It was the experience of a lifetime and the stories stand on their own... and she made it all happen with little more than the Adobe editing suite and an iPhone X.

The Light and Shadow of Feminist Research Mentorship: A Collaborative Autoethnography of Faculty-Student Research
No full text“Research assistant” is a term used to describe student researchers across a variety of contexts and encompasses a wide array of duties, rewards, and costs. As critical qualitative scholars situated in a discipline that rarely offers funded research assistantships to graduate students, we explore how we have engaged in faculty-student research in one particularly understudied context: the independent study. Using narrative writing and reflection within a framework of collaborative autoethnography, the first three authors reflect as three “generations” of protégés who were each mentored through independent studies during their MA programs by the fourth author. We explore the environmental context, mentor facets, and protégé facets that highlight the light and shadow, or successes and struggles, of our mentoring relationships. Reflecting on our own experiences of collaborative research through independent studies, we suggest a model for feminist research mentorship that may be enacted across disciplines
Advocating for integrative medicine: providers' stories of resonance, negotiation, and community
No full textIntegrative medicine (IM) is a holistic health care option that blends complementary, alternative medicine with biomedical models of care. Many medical care facilities do not offer IM treatment for patients, yet the demand for IM is growing. Therefore, IM providers are in the position of educating and promoting IM to patients and other medical practitioners. There is limited research literature focusing on how IM providers communicate advocacy for IM. Therefore, this research is designed to explore the perspectives of providers about the ways that they communicate advocacy for IM in their lives and their medical practice. Interview data we collected at The Center reveals the ways that IM providers continuously advocate for IM through their resonance with IM philosophy, by negotiating systemic tensions that revolve around IM, and by forming communities of practice with patients and other providers. Results of this investigation offer insight about IM, communication, and advocacy.</jats:p
Tussen Waterweg en Haringvliet 1953-1978
No full textBeschrijving van de veranderingen in het gebied (Voorne-Putten, Rozenburg) door en direct na de watersnoodramp van 1953, de aanleg van de havens van Rotterdam (Botlek, Europoort), de opoffering van het natuurgebied “De Beer”, en de (nooit uitgevoerde) plannen om van heel Voorne-Putten een havengebied te maken
Van bolwerk tot brasserie: De uiteenlopende ontwikkelingen van Nederlandse vestingwerken
No full textEeuwenlang hebben de stadsmuren en bastions van Nederlandse vestingwerken gediend als verdediging voor hun steden. Van kleine militaire installaties tot grote steden, alle vestingwerken vinden hun oorsprong in hetzelfde principe van het beschermen van een plaats. Desondanks hebben veel vestingwerken, sinds het verliezen van deze originele functie, zich vaak op eigen wijze ontwikkeld in de daaropvolgende eeuwen. Deze thesis gaat in op deze verschijningen, om te onderzoeken waarom deze ontwikkelingen wel of niet hebben plaatsgevonden, waarbij de hoofdvraag als volgt luidt: “Wat is de reden achter de uiteenlopende ontwikkelingen van vestingwerken in recente geschiedenis?” Aan de hand van casestudies naar Brielle, Delft, Bourtange en 's-Hertogenbosch en hun vestingwerken, wordt deze hoofdvraag door middel van literatuuronderzoek een kaartenreeksen beantwoord. Deze plaatsen hebben vestingwerken die respectievelijk zijn behouden, verdwenen, gereconstrueerd en geherinterpreteerd. Uit het onderzoek blijken er drie factoren te zijn die hiervoor verklaring bieden. Ten eerste de 19e-eeuwse noodzaak om de stad te revitaliseren, wat gepaard ging met grootschalige infrastructurele ontwikkelingen. Dit is met name van toepassing op Delft en ’s-Hertogenbosch. Ten tweede het historisch belang vanuit strategisch militair oogpunt, oftewel hoe belangrijk de vestingwerken zelf zijn geweest in de geschiedenis van de stad en het land. Delft is in de vier cases met name de uitzondering, omdat deze stad ondanks grote en ambitieuze plannen nooit van groot strategisch belang is geweest, wat leidde tot kleinschaligere vestingwerken dan Brielle, Bourtange en ’s-Hertogenbosch. Ten derde en tot slot is de houding van de bevolking ten opzichte van de vestingwerken, ten tijde van de specifieke ontwikkelingen, van belang. Dit kan de uitvoerbaarheid van relatief vergelijkbare plannen sterk beïnvloeden, als bijvoorbeeld de Noordpoort in Brielle en het Sint-Jan Bolwerk in ’s-Hertogenbosch.AR2A011Architecture, Urbanism and Building Science

Analyzing healthcare providers attitudes on CenteringPregnancy
No full textPurpose of Project: With maternal mortality rates on the rise in the United States, and New Jersey being ranked among the highest in the country, practice change needs to address this growing health crisis. CenteringPregnancy is an evidence-based model of prenatal care that has been shown to improve maternal outcomes. This innovative model of prenatal care that incorporates both individualized and group care is known for its success internationally. However, care providers are hesitant to deviate from a traditional model of prenatal care and there is a lack of evaluation as to why. Therefore, to better facilitate smooth transitions to CenteringPregnancy in the outpatient setting, this project evaluates obstacles at the hospital level by exploring healthcare providers’ knowledge, attitudes, and confidence regarding CenteringPregnancy. The purpose of this project was to implement education at the hospital level on maternal mortality, initiatives to improve maternal outcomes in New Jersey, and CenteringPregnancy. To (a) improve healthcare provider’s attitudes, (b) increase healthcare providers' knowledge, and (c) build providers' confidence regarding CenteringPregnancy. Methodology: A single group pretest/posttest survey design was used for this project to evaluate the perceived effectiveness that an education session has on healthcare providers: attitudes, knowledge, and confidence regarding CenteringPregnancy. Results: The data collected from the pretest and posttest survey showed a direct correlation between completion of the provided education session and improved attitudes, knowledge and confidence regarding CenteringPregnancy. With most respondents positively changing their perception of the CenteringPregnancy model of prenatal care after completing the education. Implications: Increased knowledge and confidence and improved providers' attitudes, and perceptions on CenteringPregnancy will better facilitate CenteringPregnancy in the outpatient setting resulting in financial benefits for hospitals and providers and have a positive impact on patient care and maternal outcomes.D.N.P.Includes bibliographical reference
Unsettling The Little House/Pellegrino Artusi, Italian Cookbooks, And (Northern) Nationalism
No full textThis article uses Patrick Wolfe’s theory of settler colonialism to analyze the relationship between Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Little House on the Prairie book series and Native American literature. The article traces Native American authors from the 1930s – when Little House was first published – through to the present day, and aims to show that literature is a long-standing and valid way of decolonizing a settler colonial state. Cited in the article are Ella Deloria, Louise Erdrich, Waziyatawin, and Dennis McAuliffe, Jr., among others. Further topics include a literature award that removed Wilder’s name in 2018, and the role of education and settler colonialism. In this article, the author analyzes Pellegrino Artusi’s 1891 Italian cookbook La scienza in cucina e l’arte di mangiar bene. Overall, La scienza is considered one of the most significant Italian cookbooks. The article’s four main sections – language, class and gender, religion, and geography – support the claim that Artusi created a version of Italian nationalism through food; albeit with a particular emphasis on Northern Italy. This article relies heavily on the work of Benedict Anderson and Anthony D. Smith with their contributions to the field of nationalism, as well as highlighting Jeffrey Pilcher’s work as a means of introducing nationalism through food.HistoryMaster of Arts (M.A.
Who am I Now? The Value of Metis in the Construction of the Disabled Identity
No full textMy dissertation is written as a reflexive or narrative ethnography. I examine my own life experiences and interactions as part of a disabled subculture. This extends previous scholarship, reflecting on how society has propagated lies or myths about disability. Using my experiences and interactions I create a counterstory (Martinez) by using rhetoric as Jay Dolmage, author of Disability Rhetoric, suggests: by moving sideways instead of back and forth. Dolmage sees mētis as a rhetorical move which can or is used by disabled people. He defines mētis as “wise and wily intelligence.” Expanding on his definition, Lois Bragg describes a weaving motion in which métis loops back on itself. Using this definition, I metaphorically compare the way métis moves to snakes, Tai chi, and trickster figures to generate a new understanding of how métis works. This processed is contrasted with ableist rhetoric, which is often seen as marching forward in a straight and uniform line.
Even when not attempting to perform, disabled people are always using rhetoric. Influences which can change the way disabled people rhetorically present themselves are examined through historical context and the medical and social models of disability. In this dissertation, I show how disability and disability studies are affected by rhetoric. I explore how ability (able-bodied people) and disability (disabled people) use rhetoric to their advantage, associating four types of ableist rhetoric with Tae Kwon Do, and the flowing, weaving motion of métis with Tai Chi and snakes. Third, I introduce a new definition of métis, which shows a way to embody disability and disability rhetoric. I make connections between the disabled experience and gender, using Kimberlee Crenshaw’s theory of intersectionality. To demonstrate how these theories might be put into practice, I present two courses—one undergraduate and one graduate—which connect counterstory, métis, disability, and rhetoric. I conclude with plans for further research.Ph.D
