Can A Right To Reproduce Justify The Status Quo On Parental Licensing?, Andrew Botterell, Carolyn Mcleod Jan 2015

Can A Right To Reproduce Justify The Status Quo On Parental Licensing?, Andrew Botterell, Carolyn Mcleod

Philosophy Publications

Most Western jurisdictions require parental licensing in the case of adoption but not in the case of assisted or unassisted biological reproduction. In an earlier paper, we set out to show that no arguments in favour of such a system of parental licensing succeed. One argument that we failed to consider, however, is one that appeals to the notion of a right to reproduce. According to this argument, prospective biological parents are protected from parental licensing because they exercise a right to reproduce when attempting to have children, while the same cannot be said about prospective adoptive parents. This paper …

Cori: Explicit Reading Instruction To Enhance Informational Text Comprehension And Reading Engagement For Thai Efl Students, Salila Vongkrachang, Apasara Chinwonno

PASAA

The study aimed to examine the effect of explicit reading instruction as an approach to ConceptOriented Reading Instruction (CORI) framework on EFL students' informational text comprehension and engagement. The explicit reading instruction was implemented with 39 first-year Thai undergraduate students over a 10-week period. It was found that the students improved their reading comprehension and engagement after the implementation. There were also significant differences between the students' pre-test and post-test mean scores. The results from the Reading Engagement Index (REI) and Reading Engagement Checklist indicated positive changes in behavioral, affective and cognitive engagements. However, the social engagement was unnoticeable. Three …

Las Casas Remembered:The 500th Anniversary Of The Struggle For The Human Rights Of The Native Peoples Of America, David M. Traboulay

Ya Gotta Shoot 'Em In The Head: The Zombie Plague As The New Apocryphal Myth In Post 9/11 America, Ryan F. Neff Jan 2015

Ya Gotta Shoot 'Em In The Head: The Zombie Plague As The New Apocryphal Myth In Post 9/11 America, Ryan F. Neff

ETD Archive

America, as a culture and a society, has embraced the zombie as the new apocryphal myth in a Post 9/11 culture as a subconscious coping mechanism to deal with fear and terror and to train itself for an eventual breakdown of society in an apocalyptic event. The Post 9/11 America has latched on both consciously and subconsciously to the figure of the zombie because it easily represents and embodies a wide range of fears to a wide range of people's anxieties in a terrorist filled global world. This is examined by analyzing Robert Kirkman's comic series The Walking Dead, and …


James And Shakespeare: Unification Through Mapping, Christina Wagner Jan 2015

James And Shakespeare: Unification Through Mapping, Christina Wagner

ETD Archive

The art of exploration became an important aspect of theater in early modern England. Exploration is typically done through the utilization of a map. The map scene in Lear provides a focal point to peer into the political ventures of King James I. As a proponent for peace, James both unified and divided his kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland through the use of cartography as a way to show the aspirations of a king. Lear, in dividing his kingdom between his three daughters, shows Shakespeare's careful strategic planning of the division of a kingdom and what that means in …
