Cybersurgery: Innovation Or A Means To Close Community Hospitals And Displace Physicians?, 20 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 495 (2002), Thomas R. Mclean

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

Cybersurgery is a surgical technique that allows a surgeon, using a telecommunication conduit connected to a robotic instrument, to operate on a remote patient. As a medical doctor, the author discusses the place of cybersurgery in the U.S. health care system of the new millennium. The author first reviews the field of cybersurgery and how the automatic surgeon will make off-line remote surgery possible. Then, he examines the global economy in health care systems and the impact of cybersurgery on closure of community hospitals and displacing physicians. Consequently, he discusses the ability of these entities to protect themselves with trade …

The Talking Culture Of Teco: Communication Patterns In A Taiwanese Organization, Li-Li Chin

Iowa Journal of Communication

The goals of this study are to (1) explore how organizational members construct and reconstruct their realities through everyday speech, and (2) identify the organizational communication patterns emerging in the Chinese/Taiwanese organization. All the naturally-occurring interactions suggest that the organizational reality of TECO is that of a humanistic and harmonious small society struggling with transition. Traditional and "new" communication patterns are distributed across different contexts of organizational action. Finally, the indigenous data shows that communication patterns of a Chinese/Taiwanese organization such as TECO are not necessarily coincident with those cross-cultural studies that simply adopted Western constructs to test Chinese.

An Investigation Of Preservice Elementary Teachers' Thinking About Science, William W. Cobern, Cathleen C. Loving

Scientific Literacy and Cultural Studies Project

It is not common to find media reports on the failures of science education; nor uncommon to hear prestigious scientists publicly lament the rise of anti-science attitudes. Given the position elementary teachers have in influencing children, anti-science sentiment amongst them would be a significant concern. Hence, this article reports an investigation where preservice elementary teachers responded to the Thinking about Science survey instrument. This newly developed instrument addresses the broad relationship of science to nine important areas of society and culture and is intended to reveal the extent of views being consistent with or disagreeing with a commonly held worldview …

Leave The Dishes In The Sink: Adventures Of An Activist In Conservative Utah, Alison Comish Thorne

All USU Press Publications

Alison Thorne provides a small-town Utah perspective on the progressive social movements that in the mid to late twentieth century dramatically affected American society. A born activist, Thorne has fought for women's rights, educational reform in public schools and universities, the environment, peace, and the war on poverty. Her efforts have been all the more challenging because of the conservative social and cultural environment in which she has undertaken them. Yet, Thorne, who has deep personal and familial roots in the politically conservative and predominantly Mormon culture of Utah and much of the West, has worked well with people with …

English Composition As A Happening, Geoffrey Sirc

All USU Press Publications

From the Introduction: "Contemporary Composition is still inflected by the epistemic turn taken in the 1980s, convincing me that we need to remember what we've forgotten—namely, how impassioned resolves and thrilling discoveries were abandoned and why. I'd like to retrace the road not taken in Composition Studies, to salvage what can still be recovered... I want to inspect the wreckage, in order to show what was the promise of the Happenings for Composition, as well as the huge gray longueur of its pale replacement, Eighties Composition. In so doing, I hope to begin a reconfiguration of our field's pre- and …

When Talk Is Not Cheap: Substantive Penance And Expressions Of Intent In Rebuilding Cooperation, William P. Bottom, Kevin Gibson, Steven E. Daniels, J. Keith Murnighan

Sociology, Social Work and Anthropology Faculty Publications

Interpersonal relationships can be fragile. The mere perception of opportunistic behavior can lead to a breakdown in cooperation. Once damaged, the question then arises as to whether and how cooperation might be restored. Noncooperative game theory raises serious doubts about the possibilities, although interactional justice and impression management research have shown that verbal explanations can dampen reactions to aversive behavior. Philosophical, anthropological, and ethological research all suggest that genuine forgiveness may require something more tangible and substantive than an explanation. Thus, the current experiment investigated the effects of explanations and varying forms of substantive amends on the restoration of mutual …

Middle Level Teachers’ Perceptions Of Interdisciplinary Teaching, Susan R. Parker

Graduate Research Papers

This study explored the perceptions of Iowa middle school teachers who were members of interdisciplinary teaching teams regarding interdisciplinary teaching and the materials used. Twenty-four teachers at five different middle level schools in four different school districts were interviewed. They were asked about their current practices with interdisciplinary teaching, which were found to vary widely, but with most teams writing their own materials for interdisciplinary use. They were also asked about factors which facilitated their use of interdisciplinary teaching, barriers to their use of interdisciplinary teaching, and benefits they associated with interdisciplinary teaching. Time was the most often mentioned facilitating …
