    Connecting Research with Communities through Performative Social Science

    No full text
    A pioneer in Performative Social Science, Kip Jones makes a case for the potential of arts-based social science to reach audiences and engage communities. Jones contextualises both the use of the arts in Social Science, as well as the utility of Social Science in the Arts and Humanities. The discussion turns next to examples from his own work and what happens when Art talks to Social Science and Social Science responds to Art. The benefits of such interaction and interdisciplinarity are outlined in relation to a recently completed project using multi-methods, which resulted in the production of a professional short film. In conclusion, Performative Social Science is redefined in terms of synthesis that can break down old boundaries, open up channels of communication and empower communities through engagement

    Theoretical frameworks for the learning of geometrical reasoning

    No full text
    With the growth in interest in geometrical ideas it is important to be clear about the nature of geometrical reasoning and how it develops. This paper provides an overview of three theoretical frameworks for the learning of geometrical reasoning: the van Hiele model of thinking in geometry, Fischbein’s theory of figural concepts, and Duval’s cognitive model of geometrical reasoning. Each of these frameworks provides theoretical resources to support research into the development of geometrical reasoning in students and related aspects of visualisation and construction. This overview concludes that much research about the deep process of the development and the learning of visualisation and reasoning is still needed

    The molecular pathogenesis of myeloproliferative neoplasms

    No full text
    Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are a heterogeneous group of haematological stem cellmalignancies characterised by proliferation of one or more cells of the myeloid lineage. The molecularinvestigation of MPN was revolutionized in 2005 by the finding that approximately 95% of cases withpolycythaemia vera (PV) and 50-60% of cases of essential thrombocythaemia (ET) and primarymyelofibrosis (PMF) are characterised by a single acquired mutation, JAK2 V617F. My study hasfocused on four principal areas:(i) Involvement of V617F in other myeloid disorders. After developing sensitive methods todetect and quantify V617F, this mutation was identified in 17% of cases of atypical chronic myeloidleukaemia (17/99) as well as other atypical MPN, thus demonstrating that it was more widelyinvolved in myeloid disorders that initially thought. Homozygosity of V617F was shown to have arisenby acquired uniparental disomy (UPD) and examination of two cases with V617F plus either KITD816V or BCR-ABL demonstrated that the mutations had arisen in independent clones.(ii) In vitro assays to predict imatinib sensitivity. Haemopoietic colony and liquid cultures wereused to determine if peripheral blood or bone marrow cells from atypical MPN cases (n=200) weresensitive to imatinib. Of those that responded in one or both cultures (n=185) some had knownabnormalities of PDGFRA or PDGFRB, but a significant minority proved negative for all molecular testssuggesting the presence of uncharacterised imatinib-sensitive mutations.(iii) V617F as a marker of response to therapy. JAK2 V617F was used as a molecular marker tomonitor the response of PV patients (n=21) to therapy with imatinib and interferon-?. Neithertherapy eradicated V617F but there was a modest reduction in %V617F which correlated withhaematological response. By contrast, in those patients that did not respond (n=13) the %V617Fmarginally increased.(iv) Genetic predisposition to MPN. Whilst investigating the possible contribution of JAK2 singlenucleotide polymorphisms to the phenotypic diversity associated with V617F, marked skewing ofalleles associated with the mutation was observed. Further investigation revealed that V617Fassociateddisease is strongly associated with a specific constitutional JAK2 haplotype, designated46/1, in all three disease entities compared to healthy controls (PV, n=192, P=2.9x10-16; ET, n=78,P=8.2x10-9 and MF, n=41, P=8.0x10-5). Furthermore, allele-specific PCR demonstrated that V617Fspecifically arises on the 46/1 allele in most cases. The 46/1 JAK2 haplotype thus predisposes to thedevelopment of V617F associated MPNs (OR=3.7; 95% CI 3.1-4.3) and provides a model whereby aconstitutional genetic factor is associated with an increased risk of acquiring a specific somaticmutation

    Imperialist women in Edwardian Britain : the Victoria League, 1899-1914

    No full text
    This thesis, based on private papers, society records, autobiographies and memoirs, newspapers and periodicals, examines one mainly female imperialist organisation - the Victoria League - and the women who ran it. It considers two related questions - what made Edwardian women imperialist, and how, within the limits of Edwardian society, could they express their imperialism? The thesis shows that several of the League's founders and executive had visited South Africa during or shortly before the Boer War, and that this experience, particularly for those who came into close contact with Milner, was pivotal in stimulating them to active imperialism. The Victoria League, founded April 1901, aimed to promote imperial unity and a British South Africa in a variety of suitably 'womanly' ways: Boer War charities, imperial education, exporting literature and art to the white dominions (particularly the Transvaal), welcoming colonial visitors to Britain, arranging for the welcome of British settlers in the colonies, and promoting social reform as an imperial issue. It worked overseas through a number of independent Victoria Leagues in Australasia, the Imperial Order, Daughters of the Empire in Canada, and the Guild of Loyal Women in South Africa; and at home with a number of similar (though largely male) imperial propaganda societies. The thesis also considers the Victoria League's attitude to race, particularly through its debate over entertaining Indian students. It ends with a discussion of the options available to imperialist women; and of the obstacles they faced in questions of authority (how far and in what ways a woman could pronounce on imperial subjects) and of ideology (as expressed through the anti-suffrage campaign). It concludes that the Victoria League, by transferring areas of activity long acknowledged as 'feminine' to the imperial stage, redefined areas of female competence and enlarged woman's 'separate sphere' to include the active propagation of imperialism

    The shaping of student knowledge: learning with dynamic geometry software

    No full text
    The focus of this paper is a software genre usually referred to as ‘dynamic geometry’ because of the ability of the user to dynamically manipulate geometrical figures created with the software tool. Using data from a longitudinal study of 12-13 students’ use of dynamic geometry software, the focus of the analysis is on the interpretations the students make of geometrical objects and relationships when using this form of software. The analysis suggests that the students’ mathematical reasoning is shaped by their interactions with the software in that their ability to explain geometrical facts and relationships evolves from imprecise, ‘everyday’ expressions, through reasoning that is overtly mediated by the software environment, to mathematical explanations of the geometric situation that transcend the particular tool being used. Such findings suggest that curriculum initiatives that encourage the use of dynamic geometry software are appropriate but that the incorporation of such software into classroom practices is unlikely to be straightforward

    The Public Papers of Governor Brereton C. Jones, 1991-1995

    No full text
    In his inaugural address, Governor Brereton C. Jones proclaimed, This administration is committed to having the most positive, progressive, exciting four years in our state\u27s history. Through speeches and press releases, this volume reflects the principal concerns of Jones’s time in office. Thematically organized, the more than two hundred public statements included here present the public face of the Jones administration on such issues as health care, education, economic development, the environment, and governmental reform. Nowhere else has the full text of these speeches and press releases been printed. Governor Jones, born in 1939, was elected to the West Virginia legislature in 1964, where he served for four years before retiring from politics. After moving to Kentucky and switching allegiance from the Republican to the Democratic Party, he re-entered politics with a successful campaign to become lieutenant governor in 1987. He was elected the Commonwealth\u27s fifty-fourth governor in 1991 by a record margin of nearly two to one. Jones initiated a number of reforms once in office. He turned a 400millionbudgetdeficitintoa400 million budget deficit into a 300 million surplus in four years, and he passed dramatic ethics reform in both the executive and legislative branches. Health-care issues were also of great importance to Jones, who spent the years before his election working with the Kentucky Health Care Access Foundation in addition to farming. After surviving a helicopter crash in 1992, he turned the main focus of his administration toward health-care reform and initiatives. Though he met with legislative opposition when he proposed universal health care for all Kentuckians, he did help pass legislation in 1994 that would serve as a solid beginning on the issue for future governors. Penny M. Miller, a professor of political science at the University of Kentucky, is the author of Kentucky Politics and Government: Do We Stand United?, and the co-author of two other books, The Kentucky Legislature: Two Decades of Change and Political Parties and Primaries in Kentucky. Her articles have appeared in leading professional journals such as Journal of Politics, Western Politics Quarterly, Women & Politics, Kentucky Law Journal, and Political Science & Politics. She serves as a board member of the Kentucky Long-Term Policy Research Center and Kids Voting Kentucky. She also served as Chair of the Kentucky Commission on Women, and as a board member of the Kentucky Center for Public Issues and the White House Commission on Presidential Scholars. A good starting point for those interested in late-twentieth-century Kentucky politics. It deserves a place on every Kentucky bookshelf. —Filson History Quarterly Reflects the principal concerns of Jones’s administration through speeches and press releases. —Documentary Editing A useful resource for anyone interested in the main issues during his term as governor. . . . A valuable reference tool. —Northern Kentucky Heritage Contains the essence of the legacy of Brereton C. Jones. It is indispensable to research libraries and all who would know it, while understanding the art of politics and the power of the spoken word. —Register of the Kentucky Historical Societyhttps://uknowledge.uky.edu/upk_political_science_papers/1010/thumbnail.jp
