Following the Enlightenment, Western adherence to positivist theory influenced practices of Western research and documentation. Prior to the introduction of positivism into Western scholarship, innovations in printing technology, literary advancements, and the development of capitalism encouraged the passing of copyright statutes by nation-states in fifteenth century Europe. The evolution of copyright and positivism in Europe influenced United States copyright and its protection of the author, as well as the practice of archiving and its role in interpreting history.

Abstract:

An Electronic Health Record (EHR) platform, used to share medical information during patients’ care path, often leads to a range of unintended consequences, which have significant impacts on its implementation. The extant studies on technology-driven organizational change concentrated on intended results that the implementer had in mind. This focus neglects unintended consequences of goal oriented changes in healthcare. To shed light on this important topic, we examined the important intended consequences of implementing an EHR platform and their impacts on different types of care actors. Our

The number of digital projects aimed at documenting and preserving communities' intangible cultural heritage (ICH) has grown considerably in recent years. These projects take advantage of the advancement of digital technologies to enable local communities to manage their ICH, in tune with the deprofessionalisation of heritage practices. However, additional work is needed to overcome some of the barriers that are emerging in these endeavours, especially related to long-term sustainability and the technical knowledge required.

Abstract:

Bibliotherapy—the use of books to facilitate the recovery of people in distress from an emotional disturbance—has a history of nurturing metacognition to achieve a cathartic expression by verbal and nonverbal means. The support of a community with shared traumatic experiences, such as incarceration, can help sustain the benefits of bibliotherapy. This exploratory qualitative research study is focuses on a digital book club consisting of men and women with criminal conviction histories (CCH), along with the ways in which a work of fiction could promote self-reflection and resilience necessary f

Abstract:

This thesis recognises that there is a technological gap, defined as the ‘digital divide’. This divide, unless addressed, increasingly limits the opportunities for progress and development of disadvantaged communities. The intention of this thesis therefore is to explore and propose how best can architecture contribute towards a solution to closing this ‘digital divide’. This will be done by exploring the opportunities which can be accessed through a high tech skills platform equipped with multi media tools. It will be a platform that offers the opportunities for improving one’s skills

Abstract:

Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)<br>Indigenous communities around the world are becoming involved in tourism development to gain the social, economic, cultural and environmental benefits that the sector can offer. However, limitations in accessing resources, funding, support and skill-training may reduce many of the possible benefits of tourism development. These limitations may lead Indigenous communities to either not engage in tourism development or engage in options that may not best suit Indigenous people. The lack of suitable engagement options with Indigenous communities

Abstract:

Current health literacy research is reconceptualizing health literacy and social learning. Theorists are situating health literacy in the contexts of digital media and critical sociocultural theories (e.g., Wharf Higgins & Begoray, 2012), based on the proposition that literacy is a complex and layered human involvement in socio-political contexts (e.g., Gee, 2000; Lankshear & Knobel, 2011; Levin-Zamir, Lemish, & Gofin, 2011; Nahachewsky & Ward, 2007).

Abstract:

Crop disorder incidents such as pests and disease attacks are the major reason of crop losses that require timely actions and can adversely affect agriculture production. In order to address this problem, a model was designed that empowers farmers to identify crop disorder incidents instantly and manage them effectively by providing relevant information in context. In contrast, the existing approaches reported in the literature rely on identifying crop disorders from images that depict the presence of symptoms in the crop. However, due to the inherent characteristics of the images, these appro
