Review: Theories And Methods Of Writing Center Research: A Practical Guide Edited By Jo Mackiewicz And Rebecca Day Babcock, Emily Bouza Dec 2021

Review: Theories And Methods Of Writing Center Research: A Practical Guide Edited By Jo Mackiewicz And Rebecca Day Babcock, Emily Bouza

The Writing Center Journal

With nine chapters on theories and 10 chapters on methods, all contributed by knowledgeable professionals, Theories and Methods of Writing Center Research: A Practical Guide, edited by Jo Mackiewicz & Rebecca Day Babcock, is the research guide I have been waiting for. I have previously conducted two IRB-approved studies on writing centers and am in the middle of my third; without this guide, I have had to pull from multiple sources and have tried to read between the lines of published articles to determine the theories, methods, and methodologies that might best suit a writing center-specific context as a …


Coding Human-Animal Interactions In Homes Of Children With Autism Spectrum Disorders, Caitlin Lisk, Lisa Ann Mische Lawson Nov 2021

Coding Human-Animal Interactions In Homes Of Children With Autism Spectrum Disorders, Caitlin Lisk, Lisa Ann Mische Lawson

People and Animals: The International Journal of Research and Practice

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a developmental disorder characterized by differences in social functioning, communication, sensory preferences, and behavior. These differences invite an effort to understand the human-animal bond and its impact on families and children with ASD. The purpose of this study was to determine if the Observation of Human-Animal Interaction for Research (OHAIRE) coding tool can be utilized in a home-based setting to code human-animal interactions in children with ASD. The OHAIRE is a coding tool developed to quantify the behavior of children when interacting with social partners and animals in naturalistic settings. The tool has been tested …

Diversity, Equity And Inclusion In Human-Animal Interaction, Nira N. Grynheim, Clare E. Jensen, Marguerite L. O'Haire Nov 2021

Diversity, Equity And Inclusion In Human-Animal Interaction, Nira N. Grynheim, Clare E. Jensen, Marguerite L. O'Haire

Discovery Undergraduate Interdisciplinary Research Internship

Human-Animal Interaction (HAI) is a growing field investigating the complex relationships humans have with animals. Human diversity in HAI, or lack thereof, may have a direct influence on the way HAI data is interpreted and presented. Previous research has studied how apparent disability, racial, sexual or other diversifying identities might affect how humans interact with the world and their pets. However, thus far, there has been little research published on how inequitable barriers towards underrepresented minorities (URM) might play a role in how HAI is studied, interpreted and presented. The present study investigated human diversity among leaders in the HAI …

Conceptual Replication And Extension Of The Relation Between The Number Line Estimation Task And Mathematical Competence Across Seven Studies, Alexa Ellis, María Inés Susperreguy, David J. Purpura, Pamela E. Davis-Kean Nov 2021

Conceptual Replication And Extension Of The Relation Between The Number Line Estimation Task And Mathematical Competence Across Seven Studies, Alexa Ellis, María Inés Susperreguy, David J. Purpura, Pamela E. Davis-Kean

Purdue Center for Early Learning Faculty and Staff Publications

A recent meta-analysis demonstrated the overall correlation between the number line estimation (NLE) task and children’s mathematical competence was r = .44 (positively recoded), and this relation increased with age. The goal of the current study was to conceptually replicate and extend these results by further synthesizing this correlation utilizing studies not present in the meta-analysis. Across seven studies, 954 participants, ranging from 3 to 11 years old (Age M = 6.02 years, SD = 1.57), the overall estimation-competence correlations were similar to those of the meta-analysis and ranged from r = −.40 to −.35. The current conceptual replication demonstrated …


If The World Was Ending: Companion Animals And Their Guardians In Covid-19 Times, Yahaira Segarra-González, Liza M. Meléndez-Samó Nov 2021

If The World Was Ending: Companion Animals And Their Guardians In Covid-19 Times, Yahaira Segarra-González, Liza M. Meléndez-Samó

People and Animals: The International Journal of Research and Practice

This research aimed to quantitatively explore various elements related to people living with companion animals during the COVID-19 emergency lockdown in Puerto Rico. Among the variables studied are guardians’ gender, age, animal species, time spent per day with the companion animal, perceived benefits, and attachment level between the person and their companion animal. Matters related to emergency preparedness plans regarding companion animals, changes in the human- animal interactions, and perceived companion animals’ changes during the lockdown were analyzed. Researchers used an online questionnaire for data collection. The sample consisted of participants over 21 years old (n = 3,663) living on …


The Three-Year Capstone: A Progression Of Learning In Purdue University’S Theatre Engineering Program, Leigh Witek Nov 2021

She will share how each project informed her understanding of the design process and how a three-year immersion in production work …


Developing Soft Skills With Interdisciplinary Teams In The First Year: Lessons Learned, Christian Rogers Nov 2021

Developing Soft Skills With Interdisciplinary Teams In The First Year: Lessons Learned, Christian Rogers

Symposium on Education in Entertainment and Engineering

The academic structure of most universities dictates that a student work with those of their own program and in conjunction with a program that is tangential to theirs. Interdisciplinary educational experiences that provide students with the opportunity to develop soft skills (such as communication, empathy and problem solving) are considered rare but are much more common in the working environment. As an example, working environments such as Universal Creative are comprised of multiple disciplines (i.e. civil engineer, mechanical engineering, illustration, user experience design, etc.) A function of working in an interdisciplinary team can also be to work on unknown or …


Signal Processing Capacity Of The Cellular Sensory Machinery Regulates The Accuracy Of Chemotaxis Under Complex Cues, Hye-Ran Moon, Soutick Saha, Andrew Mugler, Bumsoo Han Nov 2021

Signal Processing Capacity Of The Cellular Sensory Machinery Regulates The Accuracy Of Chemotaxis Under Complex Cues, Hye-Ran Moon, Soutick Saha, Andrew Mugler, Bumsoo Han

Purdue University Libraries Open Access Publishing Fund

Chemotaxis is ubiquitous in many biological processes, but it still remains elusive how cells sense and decipher multiple chemical cues. In this study, we postulate a hypothesis that the chemotactic performance of cells under complex cues is regulated by the signal processing capacity of the cellular sensory machinery. The underlying rationale is that cells in vivo should be able to sense and process multiple chemical cues, whose magnitude and compositions are entangled, to determine their migration direction. We experimentally show that the combination of transforming growth factor-β and epidermal growth factor suppresses the chemotactic performance of cancer cells using independent …


Insects And Their Laboulbeniales (Ascomycota, Fungi) Of Lake Eustis And Emeralda Marsh Conservation Area: A Case Study On Urbanization And Diversity, Patricia J. Kaishian Nov 2021

Insects And Their Laboulbeniales (Ascomycota, Fungi) Of Lake Eustis And Emeralda Marsh Conservation Area: A Case Study On Urbanization And Diversity, Patricia J. Kaishian

Purdue University Libraries Open Access Publishing Fund

A rapid biodiversity assessment of insects and associated Laboulbeniales fungi was conducted over the course of five nights in August, 2018, at two central Florida lakes: Lake Eustis and the nearby protected and restored National Natural Landmark, Emeralda Marsh Conservation Area (EMCA), which encompasses a portion of Lake Griffin. Lake Eustis was surveyed for Laboulbeniales in 1897 by mycologist Dr. Roland Thaxter but has not since been investigated. Because Lake Eustis has been urbanized, with the lake perimeter almost entirely altered by human development, the site offers a look into Laboulbeniales diversity across a 121-year timeline, before and after human …


Timing, Latency, And Live Performance, Robert Klimek, Catherine Skokan Nov 2021

Timing, Latency, And Live Performance, Robert Klimek, Catherine Skokan

Symposium on Education in Entertainment and Engineering

How important is synchronous timing in a performance? In the world of science, engineering and the arts, we cannot avoid it. In the arts, it is a living and vital concept between composer, performer and audience. During the Pandemic, with an increase in virtual meetings and performances, made us more aware of timing issues and introduced us to a path with many questions about latency and affect between audience and performer. The hand waving, head nodding and eye gestures of Renaissance musicians led eventually to the classic conductor’s baton. These all helped ensembles of dissimilar instruments and/or voices, conquer problems …

Catenate: Creating An Interdisciplinary Art Project, Brian Phillips, Melissa Eddings Mancuso, Emma Sherban

Symposium on Education in Entertainment and Engineering

This paper will present the rationale for, the challenges of, and successes encountered in the formation process of an interdisciplinary Visual & Performing Arts Project, Catenate, at Ohio Northern University’s School of Visual & Performing Arts.


La Méditerranée Des Artistes: Ouverture Sur Le Présent, Maria Grazia Messina Nov 2021

La Méditerranée Des Artistes: Ouverture Sur Le Présent, Maria Grazia Messina

Artl@s Bulletin

Ce texte, conçu comme un épilogue au colloque La Méditerranée des artistes, entend faire le point sur les méthodes de travail des artistes qui ont abordé le thème de l’identité méditerranéenne dans leurs œuvres au cours des cinquante dernières années. A la lumière de quelques récents points de repère bibliographique, des thèmes majeurs sont envisagés, tels que le genius loci, la crise induite par une remise en cause des identités due à la mondialisation, le risque du folklore et d’un orientalisme introjecté, les différences entre les artistes des rives Nord et Sud de la Méditerranée.


Le Baiser D'André Fougeron. Italie 1947, Yves Chevrefils Desbiolles Nov 2021

Le Baiser D'André Fougeron. Italie 1947, Yves Chevrefils Desbiolles

Artl@s Bulletin

Il peut arriver qu’une anecdote tapie au creux d’un fonds d’archives suffise à rafraîchir le regard critique jeté sur une œuvre et sur son créateur. Au printemps 1947, la visite du peintre André Fougeron à la basilique San Francesco d’Arezzo, fait partie de ces petits événements dont il faut tirer le fil pour mieux comprendre la place occupée par cet artiste, chez qui la fonction sociale de l’art se décline de manière contrastée en divers styles figuratifs, dans l’histoire de la peinture européenne de la seconde moitié du siècle dernier.


« Squilli Di Gloria Nel Sole Di Napoli »: Le Pavillon L’Albania Nella Civiltà Mediterranea De La Prima Mostra Triennale Delle Terre Italiane D’Oltremare À Naples (1940), Alessandro Gallicchio Nov 2021

« Squilli Di Gloria Nel Sole Di Napoli »: Le Pavillon L’Albania Nella Civiltà Mediterranea De La Prima Mostra Triennale Delle Terre Italiane D’Oltremare À Naples (1940), Alessandro Gallicchio

Artl@s Bulletin

En 1940, à l’aide d’un dispositif de monstration complexe, le pavillon de l’Albanie de l’expo-sition coloniale de Naples propose, pour la première fois, une lecture italienne et fasciste du passé de ce pays balkanique, en évoquant des raisons d’ordre culturel et géographique : son identité « romaine », son positionnement à 71 km des côtes italiennes et ses richesses archéologiques. À partir de ce cas inédit, l’article tâche de questionner la nature des produc-tions artistiques conçues pour ce projet idéologique, d’analyser les discours historiques pro-duits autour du mythe de l’Albanie romaine et fasciste et de décrypter les stratégies visuelles employées …


La Méditerranée De Tériade Pendant L’Entre-Deux Guerres, Poppy Sfakianaki Nov 2021

La Méditerranée De Tériade Pendant L’Entre-Deux Guerres, Poppy Sfakianaki

Artl@s Bulletin

Cet article traite de l’utilisation de l’idée de la Méditerranée par le critique d’art Tériade en France de l’entre-deux-guerres. En s’alignant avec le courant intellectuel et artistique dominant à l’époque qui considérait l’art du Sud/méditerranéen supérieur à l’art du nord/allemand, il a souligné dans ses écrits l’origine méditerranéenne des artistes qu’il souhaitait promouvoir ainsi que les caractéristiques méditerranéennes de leur art. Étant lui-même d’origine grecque, ses arguments sur la méditerranéité de l’art et des artistes reflétèrent tout autant chez Tériade un outil d’intégration dans l’establishment culturel français.


The Myth Of ‘Mare Nostrum’: Themes And Exhibitions, Legacy And Experimentation In The Construction Of Mediterranean Fascist Italy, Aurora Roscini Vitali Nov 2021

The Myth Of ‘Mare Nostrum’: Themes And Exhibitions, Legacy And Experimentation In The Construction Of Mediterranean Fascist Italy, Aurora Roscini Vitali

Artl@s Bulletin

This essay aims to analyse the ways in which the myth of the Mare nostrum entered into the artistic iconography of the early twentieth century. It was highly amplified during the Fascist regime thanks to some relevant graphic works, monumental commissions and, above all, temporary exhibitions that were characterized by a propagandistic overtone. The representation of a Mediterranean (in fact Italian) common identity became a fundamental part of a pervasive political strategy. The stylistic choices were conditioned both by the need to emphasize the glorious return of “Latinness” and the incardination of the “new” fascist modernity.


Formes Et Cahiers D’Art Dans Le Débat Des Années 1930: La Méditerranée Comme Creuset De La Suprématie Culturelle, Eleni Stavroulaki Nov 2021

Formes Et Cahiers D’Art Dans Le Débat Des Années 1930: La Méditerranée Comme Creuset De La Suprématie Culturelle, Eleni Stavroulaki

Artl@s Bulletin

La géographie de l’art prend un essor incontestable dans les années 1930, alimentant une polarisation, souvent démesurée, entre le Nord et le Sud, à laquelle s’attachent des attributs culturels, artistiques et spirituels antithétiques. Des figures tutélaires de ce tournant historiographique, tel Josef Strzygowski, font leur apparition dans les revues de la période, dynamisant davantage le discours. Rapidement, les revues d’art, entre autres Formes et Cahiers d’art, sont convoquées à prendre position pour ou contre la Méditerranée comme point de départ d’un renouveau artistique à venir.


Mediterranizing Gauguin. Giuseppe Biasi’S Africa And Sardinia, Giuliana Altea Nov 2021

Mediterranizing Gauguin. Giuseppe Biasi’S Africa And Sardinia, Giuliana Altea

Artl@s Bulletin

Looking at the North- African stay of the artist Giuseppe Biasi (1885–1945), the paper deals with a brand of Mediterraneism marked by issues of national and regional identity. A key figure of the regionalist movement in his native Sardinia, in Egypt Biasi sympathized with the painters Mukhtar and Said’s nationalist ideals. Back in Italy, his works showed a conflation of the African and Sardinian worlds, implicitly confirming the theories of the anthropologist Giuseppe Sergi about the Italians as Mediterranean race and contributing to spread the fascist notion of a mediterraneism aimed at justifying colonialism.


L’Accent Sur Le Local : Modernisme Et Régionalisme Dans L’Art Grec De L’Entre-Deux-Guerres, Christina Dimakopoulou Nov 2021

L’Accent Sur Le Local : Modernisme Et Régionalisme Dans L’Art Grec De L’Entre-Deux-Guerres, Christina Dimakopoulou

Artl@s Bulletin

In 1919 a group of Greek modernist artists under the name “Groupe Tekhni” was presented to the Parisian public through a collective exhibition aiming at proving the synchronized status and the international scope of Greek contemporary art. Against all the ambitions, the exhibition did not meet the expectations of French critics who were searching vainly in the work of Greek artists for a certain accent local, typical of the region of oriental Mediterranean. This paper investigates the way in which the concept of accent local, proposed by the French critics, was interpreted in the Greek art of the …


Mediterranean Cubisms: Decoration, Classicism, Picasso And Professionalism, David Cottington Nov 2021

Mediterranean Cubisms: Decoration, Classicism, Picasso And Professionalism, David Cottington

Artl@s Bulletin

‘A working countryside is hardly ever a landscape’, Raymond Williams observed fifty years ago in his book The Country and the City; for to perceive it as such is to have both the leisure and the distance from it, to aestheticize it. This essay argues that, similarly, art practices have too often been understood ‘from the outside in’: that in Cubist representations of the Mediterranean, the picturesque quality of the Riviera insinuated itself—indeed that that the influence of the decorative was so far- reaching in the inter- World War years that it co- opted avant-gardism itself, and that the …


Disclosing The Ultimate Mediterranean Cubist Village. Place, Identity And Politics In Eduardo Viana’S Olhão Landscapes, Joana Cunha Leal Nov 2021

Disclosing The Ultimate Mediterranean Cubist Village. Place, Identity And Politics In Eduardo Viana’S Olhão Landscapes, Joana Cunha Leal

Artl@s Bulletin

This article studies the early 1920s Olhão views painted by Eduardo Viana (1881–1967). It analyzes Viana’s turn to Algarvian-Mediterranean landscapes, while considering the emergence of Olhão as the Portuguese “cubist village” rendered just before its regionalization by the fascist cultural industry. I contend that Viana’s vistas stem from his cosmopolitan profile and earlier avant-garde experiences, suggesting also that Olhão’s Mediterranean “cubist”-built environment offered Viana the prospect of a denationalized geography. The relationship between identity, place and politics will therefore be discussed.


Un Modernisme Méditerranéen? Usages Du Voyage De Klee En Tunisie, Dominique Jarrassé Nov 2021

Un Modernisme Méditerranéen? Usages Du Voyage De Klee En Tunisie, Dominique Jarrassé

Artl@s Bulletin

Parler de « modernisme méditerranéen » ne serait-il pas déguiser d’oripeaux bien-pensants le maintien de l’hégémonie dogmatique occidentale, donc « nordique » ? Le Sud revendique un rôle dans l’émergence de la modernité à travers le mythe de l’artiste qui y connaît une révélation, de la couleur ou du primitif. Le voyage de Klee en Tunisie en 1914, contrairement à celui de Kandinsky et Munter dix ans plus tôt, a donné lieu à une mythification (Klee n’y est pas étranger). Son récent centenaire à Tunis le montre : on a même parlé de kleeification. Il ne s’agit pas ici …


Beyond Noucentisme: Joaquim Sunyer’S Mediterranean Pastoral, Maria Lluïsa Faxedas Nov 2021

Beyond Noucentisme: Joaquim Sunyer’S Mediterranean Pastoral, Maria Lluïsa Faxedas

Artl@s Bulletin

Taking as case study the painting Pastoral (1910–11), one of the iconic works of the Catalan artist Joaquim Sunyer (1874–1956), this paper examines the established link between Mediterraneanism and Noucentisme in Catalan culture in the first decades of the twentieth century. A look at how this work was received when it was first exhibited, and the sub-sequent re- reading of its iconography, enables us to understand Pastoral nowadays not as much as a symbol of Noucentisme, but more as a potential meeting point between the different aesthetic trends of the period.


Les Jardins « Du Climat De L’Oranger » : Jean Claude Nicolas Forestier (1861-1930), Traditions Méditerranéennes Et Jardin À La Française, Camille Lesouef Nov 2021

Les Jardins « Du Climat De L’Oranger » : Jean Claude Nicolas Forestier (1861-1930), Traditions Méditerranéennes Et Jardin À La Française, Camille Lesouef

Artl@s Bulletin

Dans l’ouvrage Jardins : carnet de plans et de dessins (1920), le paysagiste J. C. N. Forestier forge la typologie des jardins « du climat de l’oranger » qui réunit des traditions hortésiennes de différents horizons historiques et géographiques (gréco-romaine, arabo-andalouse, maghrébine, italienne). Cet article se propose d’étudier la vision de la méditerranéité qui émane de cette typologie, puis de la mettre en perspective avec le modèle du jardin moderne élaboré par le paysagiste dès le début du siècle. Il s’agit de mettre en lumière la façon dont l’imaginaire de la Méditerranée inspire le renouvellement de l’art des jardins au …


The Mediterranean As The Primitive Source For Noucentisme: Joaquín Torres-García’S ‘Classical Primitivism’—From Arcadian Frescoes To Constructive Universalism, Begoña Farré Torras Nov 2021

The Mediterranean As The Primitive Source For Noucentisme: Joaquín Torres-García’S ‘Classical Primitivism’—From Arcadian Frescoes To Constructive Universalism, Begoña Farré Torras

Artl@s Bulletin

This paper explores the place of the Mediterranean as the main source of primitive references for modern art in the noucentista art scene of Catalonia (Spain) in the early 20th century. It does so by focusing on the case of Joaquín Torres- García, a leading figure of the movement and advocate for the modernisation of mural painting. The discussion considers the noucentista conflation of the notions of classical and primitive, examines how it finds expression in Torres- García’s controversial frescoes for the seat of the regional government, and posits its relevance to the Constructive Universalism pictorial idiom developed by the …


“Dusty” Arcadias: Pastoral Visions And Greek Landscape In The Work Of Fred Boissonnas In The Context Of Mediterranean Cultural Myth, Marianna Karali Nov 2021

“Dusty” Arcadias: Pastoral Visions And Greek Landscape In The Work Of Fred Boissonnas In The Context Of Mediterranean Cultural Myth, Marianna Karali

Artl@s Bulletin

In the following paper, I examine the possible affiliation the Swiss commercial photographer Fred Boissonnas shared with certain groups of Greek-French Nationalists as early as in 1903-1907 and the way this particular nexus inspired the integrity of his work on Greek landscape, forming as well his naturalistic vision on photography. Within the visionary spectrum of a northerner excursionist and the aesthetic eye of a Pictorialist photographer, Boissonnas marked an Innovative gaze upon Mediterranean Arcadian Imagery, altering the Symbolic Classicism of von Gloeden paradigm of Italian South.


Sous L'Impulsion D'Une Culture Latine Et Méditerranéenne : La Revue "La Renaissance Latine" (1902-1905) Et Les Arts, Katia Papandreopoulou Nov 2021

Sous L'Impulsion D'Une Culture Latine Et Méditerranéenne : La Revue "La Renaissance Latine" (1902-1905) Et Les Arts, Katia Papandreopoulou

Artl@s Bulletin

La Renaissance latine (1902-1905), revue culturelle et politique de diffusion internationale, consacre une grande partie de son contenu à l’évolution des arts visuels d’une Méditerranée fantasmée. Régie par des critères essentialistes et ethniques, et animée par des acteurs connus pour leurs aspirations coloniales, elle ne parvient cependant pas à éroder la modernité transnationale de la jeunesse artistique, qui affirme avec véhémence ses particularités locales et antiacadémiques. Le « mouvement latin », qui concerne l’Italie, la France, la Grèce, l’Espagne et la Roumanie, favorise un creuset artistique au sein du bassin méditerranéen, avant que ses voix modernistes ne soient écartées de …


Opposing Strands: The Mediterranean As Site Of Cultural Conflict Around 1900, Neil F. Mcwilliam Nov 2021

Opposing Strands: The Mediterranean As Site Of Cultural Conflict Around 1900, Neil F. Mcwilliam

Artl@s Bulletin

From antiquity to the Third Republic, this article follows visual and literary representations that measured space, time and ideological oppositions that spawned an image of the Mediterranean as an area of transmission and cultural tension. It focuses on three theorists: the head of Action Française, Charles Maurras; the novelist Louis Bertrand; and critic and cultural impresario Joachim Gasquet. Each contributed to the formation of an image of the Mediterranean basin as the birthplace of European heritage and a battlefield in a struggle against the forces of democracy and cultural hybridization.
