Do You Hear What I Say? Attending to the Voices of Prince Edward Island Parents
No full textThe purpose of this research was to obtain a perspective from Prince Edward Island parents of preschool children, regarding their views on what is important for them, and for their children, in terms of understanding healthy development and parental support. Specifically the research set out to asses: (a) whether parents believed they had a meaningful voice in program or policy developments which impact children and families; (b) what concerns they might have in relation to child development, childcare, and early childhood education in general; and (c) whether they identified any gaps in current services or programs.Do You Hear What I Say? Attending to the Voices of Prince Edward Island Families, captured the opinions and perspectives of parents of preschool children from across the province of PEI regarding their views of early childhood and parenting. Parents indicated that they wanted high quality accessible, affordable childcare, effective communication with program developers and policy makers, ongoing opportunities to provide input into decisions which affect them as parents or their children, programs and services which reflect current research and best practices, and information on child development and parenting techniques. In general PEI parents want to be understood and have their needs responded to in a meaningful way.The findings from the research may be meaningful for program and policy developers interested in the health and well-being of families with young children.Source: Masters Abstracts International, Volume: 50-04, page: 2074.Advisers: Ray Doiron; Martha Gabriel

Wallis Simpson: A Typical Cinderella Story?
No full textMrs. Wallis Simpson led an entertaining, adventurous, and scandalous life. This girl from Baltimore traveled the world, fell in love over and over again, and climbed to the top of one of the most prestigious social circles possible, into the arms of the Edward VIII, King of England. I will explore how Wallis Simpson was categorized through class and socioeconomic status in her early life, how she broke many preconceived gender roles of the era including reversal in relationship dominance, and other ways that her divorcee marital status affected public perception of her. I will explore these issues through the lens of newspapers from England and the United States, with a focus on how the views in the newspapers differ between the countries
The Scottish campaign of Edward I, 1303-4
No full textThe campaign of 1303-4 was the longest expedition led by Edward I, and involved the longest siege of his reign. Previously, however, its part in bringing about the Guardians’ surrender, early in 1304, has been understated. Based on an in-depth examination of a wide range of surviving documents, the importance of the military element in conquering Scotland has been re-evaluated. Crown strategy was planned with great care and executed with rigour. In gaining access to Scotland north of the Forth, by use of the pre-fabricated bridge built at Lynn in the early part of 1303, Edward proceeded to occupy the eastern ports, effectively placing a barrier between the Guardians and the continent. This proved to be the turning point of the campaign. Because so many cavalry served unpaid, and do not figure largely in the evidence, exact numbers are impossible to ascertain. However, by using the varied sources, reasonable estimates have been put forward for numbers throughout the fifteen months. As regards the infantry, by using the payrolls, it has been argued that more were present for longer than had previously been thought. The efforts to obtain and transport supplies, whether victuals, arms or monies, has also been examined in great detail. The evidence for purveyance suggests that it was not the poor who were burdened, but those of some status in local society. Altogether, the evidence suggests that, in England, many may have benefited from the war by the employment of their skills or the purchase of their goods. Many, however, would also have suffered, especially with regard to shipping. Lowland Scotland and northern England were the worst affected areas because they were the main theatre of operations
