An Examination Of The Ways In Which Transdisciplinary Research Could Be Used To Incentivize Local Communities To Combat The Illegal Wildlife Trade, Jessica Rios
FIU Undergraduate Research Journal
The illegal wildlife trade (IWT) is currently one of the most critical conservation concerns, given its direct impact on biodiversity loss, endangering local ecosystems, and adding pressure to all species at a point when they face dangers like deforestation and mass extinctions. This industry also significantly impacts local communities, many of which are compelled to engage in it as a result of their precarious socioeconomic conditions. While effective countermeasures to this global issue have been identified, successful implementation of these countermeasures require diverse disciplines and collaborators. This paper argues that a transdisciplinary approach that converges knowledge and skills from social …

Interventional Systems Ethnography And Intersecting Injustices: A New Approach For Fostering Reciprocal Community Engagement, Danielle Devasto, S. Scott Graham, Daniel Card, Molly Margaret Kessler
Community Literacy Journal
Effectively addressing wicked problems requires collaborative, embedded action. But, in many cases, scholarly commitments, social justice, privilege, and precarity collide in ways that make it difficult for community-engaged scholars to ethically navigate competing duties. This article presents our efforts to support reciprocal community engagement in addressing cancer- obesity comorbidity and risk coincidence in underserved communities. Partnering with community healthcare professionals, we conducted an adapted Systems Ethnography/Qualitative Modeling (SEQM) study. SEQM offers an alternative ethical framework for community-engaged research, one that supports reciprocity through enabling participant-centered community self-definition, goal setting, and solution identification.

La Enseñanza De La Lectura En América Latina: Desafíos Para El Aula Y La Formación Docente, Pelusa Orellana García
Revista Electrónica Leer, Escribir y Descubrir
Aunque el desarrollo de la alfabetización en América Latina muestra un notable progreso en los últimos veinte años, la proporción de analfabetismo funcional se mantiene alta en muchos países. Ello impide a su población acceder a oportunidades laborales y educacionales que mejoren su calidad de vida. Esta situación se vuelve más compleja para los estudiantes ante demandas de la creciente interacción con textos digitales. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar cómo algunos ajustes a estos dos aspectos podrían favorecer un mayor desarrollo de las habilidades de alfabetización, en especial de la lectura, en el contexto latinoamericano. Específicamente, se describen …

Keep Writing Weird: A Call For Eco-Administration And Engaged Writing Programs, Veronica House
Community Literacy Journal
Influenced by ecological theories of writing, the author proposes a new model for writing curriculum design and community-based projects.

The Real Failure Rate Of Restaurants, Chris Muller, Robert H. Woods
The Real Failure Rate Of Restaurants, Chris Muller, Robert H. Woods
Hospitality Review
A common assumption in the restaurant industry is that restaurants fail at an exceedingly high rate. However, statistical research to support this assumption is limited. The authors present a study of 10 years in the life of three markets and offer new data for managers to consider.
