The Next Thousand Days: Planning For Digital Scholarship Engagement Into The Future, Kris Macpherson
The Next Thousand Days: Planning For Digital Scholarship Engagement Into The Future, Kris Macpherson
Oberlin Digital Scholarship Conference
A discussion that focused on the incorporation of digital scholarship into reference/research and instruction departments, including if/how our new undertakings broaden our mission and learning outcomes, our roles and job descriptions, and the ways we collaborate with other groups in our libraries, IT and across campus. How does the inclusion of DS in campus courses complement, incorporate or compete with information literacy? How do we see ourselves moving forward -- what are we adding and what are we dropping, and how are we retraining ourselves to incorporate digital scholarship into our programs?

Enriching Student Learning With Data Visualization, Adam Konczewski, Louis Johnston, Diana Symons, Bennett Frensko
Oberlin Digital Scholarship Conference
In this workshop, participants were led through our collaborative process: how we divided up tasks; identified appropriate learning objectives; crafted assignments; selected data sets; and decided on software (Tableau). We discussed what’s worked, what still needs tweaking, and how we plan to expand data visualization support to faculty members in other departments. Participants left this session with a better understanding of how they can support data visualization in the classroom, and we’ll provide lists of resources and training opportunities that will help them get started.

Ifele: A Method To Teach Spanish As A Second Language Within Communities Of Practice, Francisco Burgos
Andrews Research Conference
This study, which involved classroom-based experimental research conducted during the Fall semester of 2013 in a Spanish class at Oakwood University, aimed at extending the findings of previous studies on the use of familiar texts in reading and writing (Brown 2007, Vygotsky 1978, Kern 2000, Rollins & Villamil 2001, McCourt 2006, Morris, Beck & Smith 2004, Smith & Carvill 2000, Baring 2008, Bonard 2000, White 2009, Freire 1970.

Influence Of Students’ Industrial Training On The Academic Performance Of Mass Communication Students In Babcock University Ogun State, Nigeria, Ifeoma Helen Ayeni
Influence Of Students’ Industrial Training On The Academic Performance Of Mass Communication Students In Babcock University Ogun State, Nigeria, Ifeoma Helen Ayeni
Andrews Research Conference
There is a school of thought that suggests that tertiary institutions cannot and should not be the only source of training for future journalists; proponents argued that there is a need for the gown to reach out to town in terms of curriculum development and delivery so that both the philosophy and theory taught in the classroom might conform to the expectations and needs of the society. The study therefore examined the influence of industrial training on mass communication students of Babcock University. The study adopts the survey research method with questionnaire as the research instrument which was administered on …

Prevalence Of Sexual Harassment And Assault In Uri Stem Graduate Students, Ivy Burns, Holly Dunsworth
Senior Honors Projects
There are many barriers for women in STEM careers (science, technology, engineering, and math); one, often untalked about, barrier is the prevalence of sexual harassment and assault. In the summer of 2014 the paper “Survey of Academic Field Experiences (SAFE): Trainees Report Harassment and Assault” by Clancy, et. al. was released and shed light on an issue facing many young women and men in science. According to the SAFE survey, a shocking amount of sexual harassment and assault was experienced by the, primarily female, researchers and very few knew how to report an incidence of assault. With this project I …

Reparations For Slavery In The United States, Alicia G. Kinsellagh
Reparations For Slavery In The United States, Alicia G. Kinsellagh
Creative Activity and Research Day - CARD
After the Civil War, freed slaves were promised “40 acres and a mule” to start new lives. This plan was opposed and following proposals for reparations have been opposed since. The majority of U.S. citizens believe that reparations are unnecessary because no living person is responsible for slavery, arguing that there is no “legacy of slavery.” However, others believe that African Americans today are still impacted by the vestiges of slavery. Thus, all U.S. citizens share responsibility for slavery’s legacy. This project explores the arguments for and against giving reparations to African Americans.
Keywords: reparations, “legacy of slavery,” collective responsibility

The Evil That Men Do: Genocide In The Twentieth Century, Tracey Newport
The Evil That Men Do: Genocide In The Twentieth Century, Tracey Newport
Scholars Week
In the past one hundred years, there has been an ongoing mission of the civilized world to prevent the atrocities of genocide from happening. While admirable in thought, the policies taken to prevent them have failed. With early warning signs in situations of genocide being different in each case it is hard to determine when genocide is imminent. The lack of knowledge about the situation proves to be a serious problem to global actors that are required to work within the information available to them. By using three different case studies of genocide with each occurring within different contexts; the …
Finding The Truth: An Examination Into The Use Of Rhetoric In Thucydides, Eryn Pritchett
Finding The Truth: An Examination Into The Use Of Rhetoric In Thucydides, Eryn Pritchett
Scholars Week
For centuries, scholars have looked to Thucydides as truth--a factual and accurate account of the Peloponnesian War--due to his thorough use of critical analysis and logical deduction. Unlike his predecessor, Herodotus, Thucydides dodged the critical and literary analysis that has plagued Herodotus for years. However, in the past few decades historians have began to realize that Thucydides is far more than facts on paper. This research project will show that Thucydides use of Athenian rhetoric transforms his work from that of historical accuracy into a "possession for all time," redefining the way other historians would construct their own narrative. (Thucydides, …

Wesleyanism, Fundamentalism, And The Dones, Mature Christians Who Are Done With The Institutional Church: Two Book Reviews, Craighton Hippenhammer
Scholar Week 2016 - present
Book #1: "Square Peg: Why Wesleyans Aren't Fundamentalists," written by Nazarene and published by the Nazarene Publishing House. Book #2: "Church Refugees: Sociologists Reveal Why People Are DONE with Church but Not Their Faith," by Josh Packard and Ashleigh Hope, which tells why there are mature, highly educated Christians leaving the institutional church. The reasons why they are leaving are for the same four unexpected reasons. While these folks may not be large in numbers, they may be large in impact because they are doers and leaders at all levels of the church, so they may be leading the church …

專題講座
香港的街道命名經歷過多個階段,採取過不同的方式和機制,形成今日百花齊放的局面。香港開埠早期的街道名稱多以人名命名,而近年則普遍以地區特徵加上吉祥字詞組成,各具特色。在這些街道名稱的背後,往往都有一些值得探索的歷史故事。劉智鵬博士於講座中講解一些香港街道名稱的背景由來,讓大家從另一個角度去認識本地歷史。

Vater Als Beurteiler. Parallelen Zwischen Das Urteil Und Brief An Den Vater, Margaret Marusek
Undergraduate German Research Conference
Viele Schriftsteller nutzen ihr Schreiben als Therapie. Sie schreiben über die Gedanken, die sie auf ihren Kopfen nicht schlagen können. Das Schreiben kann neuen Ideen entwickeln und alten Ideen ändern.
Offensichtlich war die Beziehung zwischen Vater und Sohn immer in Kafkas Kopf. Viele Kafkas Werke handeln sich von deiser Beziehung. Der berühmteste Text Kafkas (auf Deutsch) ist Das Urteil, und natürlich gibt es da eine komplizierte Beziehung zwischen Vater und Sohn. Brief an den Vater handelt sich eindeutig von Kafkas eigenem Vater, und die Ähnlichkeiten zwischen den Texten sind bemerkenswert. Beide Väter sind in ihrer Arbeit vertieft. Beide Väter …

Undergraduate German Research Conference
1960er sind die Ära von neues Detektivliteratur von Sjöwall und Wahlöö. Detektivfiktion ist nicht nur ein klug und ein interessant Genre sondern auch eine Stimme von Politik und Glauben. Die schwedischen Autoren von der Martin Beck Serie schreiben um die Gesellschaftskritik in die 10 Romanen, die sie hat zwischen 1965-1975 geschrieben. Für Verstandnis um den politischen Glaube in der Serie, man die Kontext von der Autoren in der Kalten Krieg wissen muss. Sjöwall und Wahlöö hat ihren Glauben von Marxismus und Gesellschaftskritik in jede Martin Beck Buch.

Aligning Graduate Student Training And Work: Emory’S Digital Scholarship Internship Program, Alan G. Pike
Transforming Libraries for Graduate Students
While graduate student employment in libraries is nothing new, not every student job in the library is created equally. What would it mean for us to structure graduate student employment with an eye toward professional goals of students while also integrating them into day to day operations? This presentation will discuss how the Digital Scholarship Internship Program, a pilot program for graduate students in the Emory Center for Digital Scholarship, part of the Libraries and Information Technology Division of the Robert W. Woodruff Library, might serve as a model for training and professional development for graduate students working with librarians …

The Library Is Our Lab: The Case For Print Books In An Academic Library, Peggy Ellis, Fran Gray
The Library Is Our Lab: The Case For Print Books In An Academic Library, Peggy Ellis, Fran Gray
Western Libraries Presentations
Humanities researchers consider the library to be their laboratory, and its print collections their essential research equipment. In spite of anecdotal evidence that both students and faculty in the Humanities prefer print materials over e-books, academic libraries are allocating a steadily increasing proportion of their acquisitions budgets toward the purchase of e-books across all disciplines.
At Western University in London, Ontario, Peggy Ellis and Fran Gray surveyed Arts & Humanities faculty members and graduate students to gain a better understanding of their attitudes toward e-books. The objectives of our research are three-fold: to determine whether researchers in the Humanities departments …
