The Construction Of Citizenship Through Musical Performance In Toronto’S Settlement Houses, 1930-1939, Deanna Yerichuk

Music Faculty Publications

Throughout the 1930s, Toronto’s social settlement houses hosted various musical performances by and for the immigrant and working-class residents of Toronto’s poorest neighbourhoods. Given their overarching project of civic betterment, the performances became sites not only to validate the social success of musical work, but also to enact musically notions of citizenship. Within the settlement music schools, benefit concerts and pupil recitals featured conservatory-style music performances, which articulated Western European Art Music to an Anglo-Celtic Protestant norm for citizenship. However, annual spring festivals shifted notions of citizenship somewhat by celebrating the various cultures of immigrants through music and dance.

Hazardousness Of Place: A New Comparative Approach To The Filipino Past, Greg Bankoff

Philippine Studies: Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints

The historiography of the Philippines has been largely bounded by the nation-state, which has defined how its past has been conceived and to whom its peoples are mainly compared. A more transnational environmental history, however, seeks to situate the archipelago within the context of the daily threats that its peoples have to face. Thisarticle focuses on the hazardous nature of living in the islands and explores the ways in which Filipinos have adapted to natural hazards as a frequent life experience over time.Keywords: historiography • Philippines • disasters • risk • adaptation

Emergency Situations, Participation, And Community-Based Disaster Responses In Southeast Asia: Gray Areas And Causes For Optimism, Loh Kah Seng

Philippine Studies: Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints

Emergency and participation intersect to form the basis of Community-Based Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (CBDRRM). Thisarticle has three aims. First, it explores the criticisms of participatory development in CBDRRM. Second, it highlights how disasters provide insights into participatory development when disasters are viewed not merely as terrible events but as catalysts for social change. Third, thearticle contends that despite its flaws, CBDRRM is neither hegemonic nor oppressive but can be adapted to the needs and cultures of communities. Thearticle calls for an empathetic form of participation and room for diverse partners to work together.Keywords: disasters • Indian Ocean tsunami …

Detecting Conceptual Change With Latent Transition Analysis, Glen Davenport

Doctoral Dissertations

To uphold the core premise of cognitive diagnostic assessment, it is necessary to align different aspects of assessment design. The structure of the test, the measurement model, and the score reporting must align with each other and with the construct being targeted. Conceptual knowledge, as targeted by the Force and Motion Conceptual Evaluation (FMCE), can be modeled as a set of overlapping categorical states. As such, latent class analysis (LCA) is the most appropriate measurement model—where students have a probabilistic membership within classes that tend to match with observed mental models.

This dissertation focuses on one particular application of conceptual …

Cc‐By: Is There Such A Thing As Too Open In Open Access?, Leetta M. Schmidt, Kyle K. Courtney, Calvin Manning

Charleston Library Conference

Support and demand for researchers to publish in open access (OA) journals has been growing steadily among funding agencies, research organizations, and institutions of higher education. The Wellcome Trust and the Research Councils UK OA policies have begun imposing more finite restrictions, like publishing only under CC‐BY licenses, on researchers. CC‐BY, or Creative Commons Attribution, is one of several, and the most open, of all creative commons licensing. It most closely embodies the definition of OA, as established by the Berlin Declaration and Bethesda Statement on Open Access, by allowing for the most reuse, including the unrestricted creation of derivatives. …

Balancing Bananas: Collection Assessment Of Patron‐Driven Acquisitions, Gabrielle Wiersma, Rhonda Glazier, Denise Pan, Stephanie Spratt

Charleston Library Conference

The libraries in the University of Colorado (CU) System have been using patron‐driven acquisitions (PDA) to build a shared collection of e‐books for many years. This paper presents our experiences as both early adopters of PDA and libraries with longstanding PDA e‐book programs and describes an analysis of how PDA has impacted collections at each of the libraries in the CU System.

Multiplying By Division: Mapping The Collection At University Of North Texas Libraries, Karen Harker, Janette Klein, Laurel Crawford

Charleston Library Conference

The University of North Texas (UNT) Libraries has developed a unique collection assessment tool, the Collection Map, to provide support for a new access‐based collection development philosophy. UNT Librarians realized the limitations of traditional assessment methods to gauge the impact of emerging acquisitions models such as demand‐driven acquisitions (DDA) and large interdisciplinary e‐book collections. What was needed was a flexible, nimble assessment system to track access, holdings, and interlibrary loan (ILL) activity for each academic discipline. The Collection Map is a database that links items, and their associated data, to any one of several dozen overlapping subcollections via Library of …

Training A New Librarian In The What, How, Where, And Why Of Health Sciences Collection Management, Susan K. Kendall, Mari Monosoff-Richards

Charleston Library Conference

Collection management for the health sciences, particularly clinical medicine, is an increasingly complex job which, anecdotally, is usually given to experienced librarians. Health sciences libraries tend to delegate collections responsibilities to one librarian who holds all of the institutional collections knowledge. Replacing these people as they retire or move on can be difficult unless new librarians become trained in collections work. At the Michigan State University Libraries, recent search committee experience revealed that an entrylevel health sciences collections position attracted fewer applicants than entry‐level health sciences positions for instruction, liaison, or educational technology. This may reflect the focus of library …

‘Wannabe Toxic-Free?’ From Precautionary Consumption To Corporeal Citizenship, Dayna Scott, Jennie Haw, Robyn Lee

Articles & Book Chapters

Ecological citizens are increasingly encouraged to adopt ‘precautionary consumption’ – a set of practices aimed at shielding them from the potential health harms of exposures to everyday toxics. The utility and the effects of precautionary consumption in relation to common chemical exposures are investigated. Precautionary consumption is not only of questionable utility, but is fundamentally misguided as an approach for inspiring antitoxics organizing. The failure of this approach is in part due to its assumption of a naturally bounded, autonomous individual who is able to maintain an impermeable boundary between herself and the environment. Drawing on the work of material …
