Meeting Information Needs through Global Partnerships: A Roadmap to Becoming a Global Health Sciences Library     

Nandita S. Mani  Megan Fratta  Rebecca Carlson  Michelle Cawley 《图书馆管理杂志》2020,60(7):830-851

Abstract

Supporting global health priorities through the development of robust health science librarianship partnerships is of significant importance. Increased demand for synthesizing evidence-based information, collating quality resources, and increasing research productivity to improve human health requires integration of library and information science skills and expertise. The Health Sciences Library (HSL) at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC), exists to be an indispensable partner in health information and knowledge, teaching and learning, and research. As global efforts at UNC expanded, the HSL sought to ensure that our global engagement strategy and integration were aligned with campus priorities and partner needs. The HSL created a global research partnership plan: identify resources that improve efficiency, increase access to information, build in-country capacity and expertise—all while strengthening collaborations across multiple countries. Creating a meaningful and sustainable engagement strategy was central to envisioning our path forward and can be used as a framework for consideration by librarians in similar settings.  相似文献   

Applying a family systems perspective for understanding parent—professional relationships: a study of families located in the Anglo‐Jewish community     

《Support for Learning》2006,21(3):156-161

Under current government directives, parents, along with professionals, are ascribed a central role in contributing to the processes associated with meeting their children's special needs. Yet many obstacles continue to hinder the achievement of good working relationships between parents and professionals. For parents located within minority ethnic communities, however, it is known that the challenges to attaining partnership working are often further heightened. Drawing on the day‐to‐day experiences of six families located in one minority ethnic context ‐ the Anglo‐Jewish community ‐ the author uses family systems theory as a useful lens through which parents' understandings of, and responses to professionals can be further interpreted and understood.

A review of parent–professional partnerships and some new obligations and concerns arising from the introduction of the SEND Code of Practice 2015          下载免费PDF全文

Beate Hellawell 《British Journal of Special Education》2017,44(4):411-430

This article contributes a current thematic review of literature about the challenges of productive parent–professional partnership working relating to children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). It also reports on an empirical project which explored early experiences of professionals working under the newly statutory SEND Code of Practice 2015 and asks what new challenges have emerged for SEND parent‐partnerships. Particular consideration is given to the language of choice and preference in the Code, the new focus on outcomes in the place of specified provision, and the problematic construction of compliant partners.  相似文献   

Defining the family: towards a critical framework for families of children with disabilities     

Barry Carpenter 《欧洲特需教育杂志》2013,28(2):180-188

ABSTRACT

Family‐centred approaches are widely recognized internationally as the most ecologically appropriate way of working with families of children with disabilities. Pivotal in this approach is its focus upon the needs of the whole family, rather than only the needs of the child (with a disability). It places a significant emphasis on flexible and responsive transdisciplinary service delivery and upon parent choice and decision‐making. For the family‐centred approach to become truly effective, then, we must define what constitutes a family. Or rather ask families how they define themselves. Alongside an exploration of traditional and non‐traditional family roles, this paper challenges stereotypical notions of the family, and seeks to establish the family as the core element in any service team.  相似文献   

社会创新融资:美国职业技术教育 公私合作模式的新进展     

田晓伟  牛睿 《比较教育研究》2019,41(6):105-112

美国职业技术教育的创新融资模式运用了"社会影响力债券"和"为成功付费"的融资组合,实现了两者优势互补。社会创新融资模式在设计理念、基本原理和具体操作上更加符合职业技术教育特点,推动了职业技术教育的公私合作模式变革和转型升级。在创新融资模式运行中,人力资源与劳动就业部门的协调和联结作用尤为关键,全方位的数据和信息服务承担着重要角色,同时最大程度上对地方政府、学校与社会机构进行放权和赋能,这些做法共同形成了以融资为主线的公私合作新格局。  相似文献   

The Role of Parents and Community in the Education of the Japanese Child     

Heidi?KnipprathEmail author 《Educational Research for Policy and Practice》2004,3(2):95-107

In Japan, there has been an increased concern about family and community participation in the childs education. Traditionally, the role of parents and community in Japan has been one of support and less one of active involvement in school learning. Since the government commenced education reforms in the last quarter of the 20th century, a more active role for parents and the community in education has been encouraged. These reforms have been inspired by the need to tackle various problems that had arisen, such as the perceived harmful elements of societys preoccupation with academic achievement and the problematic behavior of young people. In this paper, the following issues are examined: (1) education policy and reform measures with regard to parent and community involvement in the childs education; (2) the state of parent and community involvement at the eve of the 20th century.  相似文献   

Exit cards: creating a dialogue for continuous evaluation     

Mazna Patka  Jennifer Wallin-Ruschman  Tenille Wallace  Candice Robbins 《Teaching in Higher Education》2016,21(6):659-668

This study explored the use of Exit Cards, which are formative evaluations of student knowledge and instruction undertaken at every class meeting. Its results are based on Exit Card data from two undergraduate research methods courses. Thematic analysis indicated that students used Exit Cards to communicate (1) what they learned, (2) challenges with course material, (3) experiences with peers, (4) requests for help, (5) challenges with coping, and (6) successes. While the present study is an initial exploration of the use of Exit Cards, it contributes to knowledge on the utilization of informal formative assessments.  相似文献   

A dialogue between partnership and feminism: deconstructing power and exclusion in higher education     

Lucy Mercer-Mapstone  Gina Mercer 《Teaching in Higher Education》2018,23(1):137-143

Students as partners (SaP) has seen an increase in focus as an area of active student engagement in higher education. Many complexities and challenges have been shared in this evolving field regarding inclusivity and power. We discuss, in this dialogue, insights that can be uncovered by exploring SaP through a feminist lens – illuminating the fact that both fields seem to be seated in similar radical processes of challenging, questioning, destabilising, deconstructing, and empowering. We unravel issues of power and exclusion by exploring: what feminist theories might add to SaP; embedded binaries and what they reveal about power relations within the language of SaP; and ways of writing about SaP that are inclusive. We aim to step away from dominant understandings, incite acts of self-reflection, and open possibilities for future research and practice by questioning the boundaries and binaries that currently shape the institutions of higher education.  相似文献   

Between urgent and lifelong matters: overweight children’s voices on health promotion pedagogies     

Ditte-Marie From 《Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education》2019,40(6):816-831

ABSTRACT

This article addresses the learner perspective on being overweight by listening to 39 Danish overweight children aged 8–13 years. In accordance with the existing critique of the ‘obesity epidemic’ and medico-scientific discourses around food and exercise, this article explores how new health imperatives shape overweight children’s self-narratives. Health pedagogical activities in Denmark are between urgent and lifelong approaches to achieving health, and the article presents overweight children’s voices on having to learn new health behaviour in between these two schisms. From a social constructionist and post-structuralist perspective, the analysis demonstrates how the children both subscribe to discourses of discipline and control over health actions, as well as legitimate narratives of having to adjust, accommodate and negotiate health challenges to everyday life practices. The article addresses what can be learnt from listening to overweight children’s voices in the context of performing meaningful health pedagogies.  相似文献
