Abstract:

The collection of Lucas Barrett (1837-1862), first director of the Geological Survey of Jamaica, is housed in the Geology Museum at the University of the West Indies, Mona, and includes nine tests of spatangoid Hemiaster sp. These most probably come from the Upper Cretaceous of the Blue Mountain Inlier in eastern Jamaica. These fossils provide additional data on the echinoid fauna of Jamaica's most inaccessible inlier; they preserve some fine morphological features rarely seen in specimens of this species; and they represent the first 19th century collection of Jamaican fossil echinoids to be

Abstract:

Purpose Collection content is no longer the primary distinctive signifier of excellence in the present libraries. In an information market where technology has increased access to content, thereby providing resources at one’s fingertips, the provision of services is increasingly becoming a distinctive signifier of excellence and quality. In such an open/service-oriented marketplace, what are the services that are signifiers of excellence and consequently distinguish a library? This paper aims to review select literature within the USA to identify the services that are signifiers of excellence

Abstract:

Fossil barnacles are poorly known from the West Indies in general and Jamaica in particular. The only records from Jamaica to date have been of occasional balanomorphs collected from Neogene deposits (Newman and Ladd, 1974; Morris, in press). It is therefore significant to report what may be the first fossil lepadomorph from the island, preserved as a scaled peduncle. This is also the oldest known Jamaican, and probably Caribbean, barnacle, coming from the Upper Cretaceous. This specimen was discovered by the junior author in the Geology Museum, University of the West Indies at Mona. Barnacle

Abstract:

Jamaican Creole is one of the major Atlantic English-lexifier creoles spoken in the Caribbean. In Jamaica, this creole is popularly labelled as ‘Patwa’ (Devonish & Harry 2004: 441). There is a widely-held view in Jamaica that a post-creole continuum exists. The continuum is between Jamaican English and Jamaican Creole (Meade 2001: 19). Many scholars holding this view find it necessary to distinguish among acrolectal, mesolectal and basilectal varieties (Irvine 1994, Beckford-Wassink 1999, Patrick 1999, Meade 2001, among others). Major phonological differences are found between the two extr

It now includes secondary, technical vocational teacher education, and early childhood education. While still operating within a postcolonial context, the philosophical underpinning of teacher education in SVG is a mirror of its colonial origins.

Abstract:

This article discusses how to use the resources of the Grand Canal Museum to enrich the content of international Chinese education and improve teaching effectiveness. With the acceleration of globalization, international Chinese education has become an important bridge for promoting cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries. As an important cultural heritage in ancient China, the Grand Canal has rich resources along its route that are of unique value for international Chinese education.

<p>O presente artigo tem como objetivo central compreender os processos de interferência da indústria fonográfica sobre a música popular. Diante da expansão da lógica formal capitalista no campo da arte, a relação entre objetividade e subjetividade será a mola propulsora que utilizaremos para analisar paradoxos no processo de reprodução da música popular moderna, tais como indústria cultural e a reprodutibilidade técnica. Assim, partindo da análise do reggae jamaicano, buscamos ampliar o postulado adorniano sobre massificação da música para uma análise na qual seja possível investigar a

Abstract:

This essay reflects on Carolyn Cooper’s research on Afro-Jamaican feminisms via literary history, literary criticism, and cultural studies and her use of that research in various pedagogical spaces. The author’s approach is personal and layered, working primarily through memories of being taught by Cooper in the mid- to late 1990s as a literature student at the University of the West Indies, Mona. These memories are lensed through a rereading of Cooper’s scholarship and also framed from the vantage point of the author being a university instructor now herself. Drawing from Cooper’s complex wor

Abstract:

The worm burden distributions of a macrofilarial nematode, Ochoterenella digiticauda, and a gastroenteric digenean, Mesocoelium monas, were examined in a naturally infected population of Bufo marinus from Jamaica. Both parasite species had over-dispersed distributions which were well described by the negative binomial probability model (k = 0·35 for 0. digiticauda; and k = 0·59 for M. monas). The intensity distributions of the two parasites were uncorrelated: there was no significant association between the intensity (whether absolute or relative) of infection of either parasite in individual

The Caribbean is one of the most well-studied biodiversity hotspots, but the diversity of today’s Caribbean is only a fraction of what once existed there, as natural and anthropogenic processes have contributed to extinction and extirpation across multiple taxonomic groups. Given this long-term history of environmental perturbations and human impacts, paleobiology is well-suited to inform ongoing conservation needs in the Caribbean, which continues to be impacted by habitat degradation, species introductions, and other global change phenomena.

Contudo, o sistema de moda atual tem uma história, e podemos dizer que seu ponto de partida remonta à década de 1950 e foi parte de grande engrenagem que articulou vários setores industriais, segmentos sociais e políticos dentro e fora do campo da moda.
