Using An Engaged Scholarship Symposium To Change Perceptions: Evaluation Results, Sapna Varkey, Olga Smirnova, Tara Lee Gallien
Using An Engaged Scholarship Symposium To Change Perceptions: Evaluation Results, Sapna Varkey, Olga Smirnova, Tara Lee Gallien
Journal of Extension
Engaged scholarship (ES) entails a symbiotic relationship between the community and the university. This article reports results from an evaluation of an ES symposium Eastern Carolina University held to increase awareness of ES as a means for integrating research, teaching, and service and to potentially change unfavorable perceptions about ES through education and testimonials. After the symposium, participants were more likely to suggest that the university should put more weight on ES. On the basis of our findings, we believe that a symposium designed to encourage open dialogue among faculty, administrators, and Extension professionals can lead to increased awareness of …
Creating And Implementing Diverse Development Strategies To Support Extension Centers And Programs, Christopher S. Page, Michael A. Kern
Creating And Implementing Diverse Development Strategies To Support Extension Centers And Programs, Christopher S. Page, Michael A. Kern
Journal of Extension
Declining government funding for higher education requires colleges and universities to seek alternative revenue streams, including through philanthropic fund-raising. Extension-based subject matter centers and other programs can benefit from the thoughtful supplementation of traditional revenue sources with individual, corporate, and private foundation philanthropy. In this article, we examine funding strategies identified in existing Extension literature and then describe the development strategy created for the William D. Ruckelshaus Center as a case study, emphasizing the importance of strong board leadership and cultivation of a diverse mix of income streams.
Reading The History Of Place-Making Through Maps, Claire Campbell
Reading The History Of Place-Making Through Maps, Claire Campbell
Sponsored Events -- List
Environmental History explores the relationships between people(s) and nature in the past. So “place- making” – ways in which people have transformed nature to construct habitats of their choosing – is a major theme in the field. Using historical maps and landscape art, Professor Campbell explores some of the historical processes (many of which are still at work) by which settler society has made places in North America. These include practices of colonization, property, public memory, and, potentially, reclamation. We can see the implications for sustainability, and what may need to change.
Duality And Dissolution In The Post-Apocalypse: Nietzsche's Cycle Of Morality In Amc's The Walking Dead, Roy John Gonzales
Duality And Dissolution In The Post-Apocalypse: Nietzsche's Cycle Of Morality In Amc's The Walking Dead, Roy John Gonzales
Theses and Dissertations
Throughout his body of work, especially in Beyond Good and Evil (1886), On the Genealogy of Morality (1887), and Twilight of the Idols (1889), German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche details Western civilization’s slow movement towards nihilism. Nietzsche explains that this nihilism is the result of a so-called “slave morality,” a system of inhibitive values that suppress egoistic desires for the sake of the collective. Democracy, Christian charity, and even mass consumerism are all indicative of slave morality. But because this value system relies on absolute morals supported by a “true world” (God, a heavenly afterlife, etc.), the collapse of these systems …

Media Kesehatan Masyarakat Indonesia
Setelah pemberlakukan Jaminan Kesehatan Nasional, puskesmas dianggap semakin berat menjalankan fungsi kuratif daripada preventif. Implementasi fungsi puskesmas sudah seharusnya dapat dikendalikan melalui sebuah instrumen Penilaian Kinerja Puskesmas (PKP) yang mampu mengakomodasi fungsi puskesmas secara seimbang. Penelitian ini menganalisis kemampuan instrumen Penilaian Kinerja Puskesmas dalam mengakomodasi implementasi fungsi puskesmas. Implementasi fungsi puskesmas dianalisis melalui studi dokumen kebijakan yang mengatur fungsi puskesmas. Nominal Group Technique (NGT) dengan kepala puskesmas di Kota Surabaya dilakukan untuk menyimpulkan akomodasi setiap fungsi puskesmas pada setiap komponen penilaian yang digunakan dalam instrumen PKP. Ada tiga aspek yang dinilai dalam PKP, yakni aspek pelayanan kesehatan (wajib dan pengembangan), …

Energy Resources And Its Present Use In India, S. Manjula
Energy Resources And Its Present Use In India, S. Manjula
International Review of Business and Economics
Energy is an essential ingredient for human life on earth. It is used in all activities of society, for preparing meals, making cloth, building house, industries and other activities. Human beings require energy at an increasing rate for their sustenance and well-being. The present study is an attempt to understand the details with types of energy use in India. The largest energy source is coal, followed by petroleum and traditional biomass. According to the 2011 Census, the household-level data indicates that only 55.3 per cent of rural homes used electricity as the primary source for lighting. Energy access, with about …

Water laws and drought plans are used to prioritize and allocate scarce water resources. Both have historically been human-centric, failing to account for non-human water needs. In this paper, we examine the development of instream flow legislation and the evolution of drought planning to highlight the growing concern for the non-human impacts of water scarcity. Utilizing a new framework for ecological drought, we analyzed five watershed-scale drought plans in southwestern Montana, USA to understand if, and how, the ecological impacts of drought are currently being assessed. We found that while these plans do account for some ecological impacts, it is …

An Overview Of Perinatal Health And Childhood Development In Honduras, Rose Margaret Carlson, Abigail D. Conrad, Alexandra Nicole Lothe, Caitlin M. O'Donnell, Cameron Svihla
All Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Honduras is a country with great healthcare needs. Within health care, the largest percentage of mortality is due to conditions occurring in the perinatal period, including prenatal and maternal health, delivery and postnatal care (PAHO, 2017a). Additionally, malnutrition continues to affect infants as they growth throughout their childhood (Gray, Cossman, & Powers, 2006). Education is shown to produce positive outcomes in low-income populations (Perkins, et al, 2011). The purpose of this project was to identify Honduran healthcare needs and provide effective and sustainable intervention. A needs assessment with a Honduran-Canadian health organization reiterated evidence found in the literature, illustrating the …

School gardens are an ideal space to deliver a healthy living curriculum, such as nutrition and physical activity education, to elementary school youth. However, public schools often lack the resources and support to establish sustainable garden-based programming. We created the Healthy Living Ambassador program, a collaborative after-school garden program in low-income communities that brought together resources from schools, community programs, and University of California Cooperative Extension. This school garden program featured culturally competent teens as teachers to serve as near-peer educators and mentors to elementary school youth. The program development model incorporated lessons from sustainable community-based health program interventions and …
Is There A Gps For Lost In Translation?, Carole Garrison
Is There A Gps For Lost In Translation?, Carole Garrison
The Chautauqua Journal
Building human community is a greater task today as we reach a billion more people on our planet than just 12 years ago; then the earth was home to 6 billion people, according to the United Nations, and back in the 1960s, the earth’s population measured only half that number—3 billion. The concept, community, is over-broad and thus problematic. It covers both groups and individuals bound by similar and dissimilar interests. It can contain ideas across a broad array of cultural entities in life. A “Community” is a construct, an abstraction. Even as a member, we cannot see a whole …

Memo To Environmentalists: Brace For The Three Ps, Erin Ryan
Memo To Environmentalists: Brace For The Three Ps, Erin Ryan
Scholarly Publications
This very short essay, written as a memo to environmental advocates during a destabilizing moment in environmental law, advises them to (1) resist federal preemption of state regulation, (2) scrutinize the strategic deployment of property rights to block future regulation, and (3) think creatively about how to accomplish the goals of national-level policy without the benefit of federal authority. In short, it advises that advocates ensure that the campaign to dismantle federal environmental law does not spill over into displacing state and local efforts to fill the void. They also must push back against the strategic deployment of property rights …
The Roles Of Social Entrepreneurs In Rural Destination Development, Ziene Mottiar, Karla Boluk, Carol Kline
The Roles Of Social Entrepreneurs In Rural Destination Development, Ziene Mottiar, Karla Boluk, Carol Kline
Articles
This paper examines the relevance of social entrepreneurs in our consideration of rural destination development, which represents an important tool for rural revitalization. While many peripheral rural areas face significant challenges in terms of sustaining communities and attracting tourists, it is often social entrepreneurs, as much as traditional entrepreneurs, who are involved in developing new ideas, products and activities, as well as envisioning a future for the area. This study, which is based on cross-case analysis resulting from nine semi-structured interviews carried out in rural areas in Ireland, South Africa and USA, identifies key roles that social entrepreneurs play in …
Sustaining Suburbia Through New Urbanism: Toward Growing, Green, And Just Suburbs?, Dan Trudeau
Sustaining Suburbia Through New Urbanism: Toward Growing, Green, And Just Suburbs?, Dan Trudeau
Faculty Publications
This article examines the governance dynamics surrounding the development of sustainable neighborhoods in United States metropolitan contexts characterized as suburban sprawl. Drawing on original case study research of three distinct applications of New Urbanism design principles, the article argues for understanding the relative power of municipal authorities to incorporate social justice imperatives into the practice of sustainable development in suburban contexts. Moreover, key to prioritizing social imperatives is the way in which development processes respond to the “suburban ideal”, which is a view of suburbs as an exclusive bourgeois utopia that constrains the ability to connect so-called sustainable development with …
