Abstract:
Examples of racial discrimination are plentiful within Canadian history, as well as within institutions of higher learning. Virtual experiences of racial discrimination, similar to their physical world counterparts, are better understood within the social and political context in which the encounters take place. The purpose of this study is to: 1) examine the prevalence of general cyberbullying; 2) examine the prevalence and nature of racial cyberbullying; 3) determine the relationship between racial cyberbullying and gender, socioeconomic status, and ethnicity. Thirty-eight undergraduate students from McGill University participated in the study. The results from the analysis suggest that general and racial cyberbullying are prevalent within this sample of McGill students. The most frequently reported perceived motivators for racial cyberbullying are bullying because of one's God(s) (15.8%), name (10.5%), and language spoken (10.5%). A series of Fisher's Exact Tests were conducted to examine the relationship between individual characteristics and racial cyberbullying. Results from the analyses suggest a statistically significant relationship between gender and reporting victimization of racial cyberbullying. The results from this study, although exploratory, have implication for the recommendations put forth by the McGill University Principal's Task Force on Diversity, Excellence and Community Engagement. Specifically, the results can help guide the development and implementation of support programs for staff and students at McGill. Limitations of the study are also discussed.
Il existe une panoplie d'exemples de discrimination raciale dans l'histoire du Canada et au sein des institutions universitaires. La discrimination raciale sur Internet, semblable à celle vécue dans la vraie vie, est mieux comprise dans les contextes sociaux et politiques dans lesquels ces expériences ont lieu. Les objectifs de ce projets sont les suivants : 1) examiner la présence de la cyberintimidation en général; 2) analyser la prévalence et la nature de la cyberintimidation raciale; 3) déterminer le lien entre la cyberintimidation raciale et le rôle des sexes, le statut socioéconomique, et l'ethnicité. Trente-huit étudiants de l'Université McGill ont participé à cette étude. Les résultats de l'analyse suggèrent que les étudiants interrogés ont montré dessignes importants de cyberintimidation générale et raciale. Les principales raisons de perpétuation d'acte de cyberintimidation étaient en raison d'une croyance à un ou à des dieu(x) (15,8 %), d'un nom (10,5 %), et de la langue parlée (10,5 %). Plusieurs tests de Fisher ont été effectués pour examiner la relation entre les caractéristiques individuelles et la cyberintimidation raciale. Les analyses montrent une relation statistiquement importante entre le rôle des sexes et la dénonciation de la victimisation de la cyberintimidation raciale. Même s'ils sont préliminaires, les résultats de cette étude ont des répercussions sur les recommandations avancées par le Groupe d'étude de la principale sur la diversité, l'excellence et l'engagement communautaire. Autrement dit, les résultats peuvent servir de guides pour l'élaboration et l'établissement de programmes de soutien pour les étudiants et les employés de McGill. Les limitations de cette étude sont également présentées.

Full text
Abstract:
This study investigated the academic adaptation of five Mainland Chinese doctoral students in the Faculty of Education at McGill University, Quebec, Canada. Using individual interviewing as the primary research method, the study revealed 12 major challenge areas, i.e., English as a second language, financial difficulties, outsider feelings, worries about career paths, course work, research network, TA/RA experiences, differences between doctoral and master's studies, isolation, pace of the PhD, motherhood and doctoral study, and adjusting research directions. Through comparing the findings with the literature and the data from secondary sources, this study concluded that the academic adaptation of Mainland Chinese doctoral students in Canada is a process in which cross-cultural adaptation intertwines with disciplinary socialization. The study contributes to literature by (1) documenting an under-researched group---PhD students in education from Mainland China in Canada; and (2) looking at academic adaptation through two lenses: cross-cultural adaptation and disciplinary socialization.

Full text
Abstract:
The case study examines the process of change undergone by the McGill Institute for Learning in Retirement (McGill ILR), a volunteered organization. ILRs have emerged across North America in the past 15 years and their success is attributed to the congenial participatory learning environment and the fact that members volunteer to administer the program activities in collaboration with a host university.
Four years after it was founded, leaders sensed the need to evaluate McGill ILR's strengths and weaknesses. Under the aegis of McGill Centre for Continuing Education, a Planning Committee designed and implemented an organizational self-assessment to provide recommendations for change and ensure sustainability.
The study revealed: (a) that this community of older adults taught themselves how to respond to change effectively and (b) that the overarching characteristics of an ILR, together with a spirit of dialogue, provided an organizational structure which helped volunteers absorb change.

Full text
Abstract:
Dental education is a stressful experience for some students. Dental students have been found to report stress levels higher than in the general population, with 36% of students reporting significant psychological distress. Canadian dental students have reported an increase in anxiety, depression and hostility. No research was found to have investigated dental education stress using a qualitative analytical approach. Objectives: This study aimed to better understand the experience of stress among dentistry students using qualitative methodology. Methods: 12 recent graduates from the McGill University Faculty of Dentistry were interviewed using a semi-structured interview guide. Themes from the interviews were identified and coded by reading and rereading the texts until information-saturation occurred. Results: Firstly, four sources of stress were identified: workload pressure, fear of failure, faculty relations, and transition stress. Secondly, three effective coping mechanisms were highlighted by the students: seeking support, focusing on things that they can control, and participating in extra-curricular activities. Finally, three types of students with respect to their experience of stress were found: the highly stressed student, the moderately stressed student, and the relaxed student. This typology of dental student is new information that has not been studied before. Conclusion: Faculties need to identify and aid highly stressed students.

Full text
Abstract:
Twenty first-year management students were observed as they undertook an Effective Written Communication course (EWC) in a microcomputer lab at McGill University. The study focused on the students' adaptation to the computer during a one-semester course and for a two-year period following the course. Results suggest that although students master the basics of word processors with relative ease, they bring entrenched paper and pen habits to the computer lab; habits that are not easily changed. This study further suggests that because student writers in a first-year composition class are often inexperienced writers and computer users, inferences based upon this group may not apply to other populations.

Dressler, Jacqueline Faith. "Factors which influence employee participation in training and development : a study of clerical staff at McGill University." Thesis, McGill University, 1994. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=22582.

Full text
Abstract:
This study examines the participation of clerical staff in training and development. It also considers the potential benefits of participation and the influence of forces in the work environment on participation. A survey of the population of 937 clerical staff at McGill University yielded a response of 460. Three-quarters of staff indicated awareness of training and development opportunities, with approximately half of these having participated in 1993/1994. Staff consider performance enhancement as by far the most likely benefit of participation. They are also inclined to agree that their supervisors are supportive of training and development, while they tend to be unsure whether they have their co-workers' support. Further, staff tend to be unsure or to disagree that situational constraints influence participation. Significant interactions between several of the variables were found. This study discusses the implications of these findings for McGill and makes recommendations for further research.

Prokopy, Jordan Julia-Anne. "The interface of medicine, spirituality, and ethics : a case study of the McGill programs in whole person care." Thesis, McGill University, 2008. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=116067.

Full text
Abstract:
Academic and medical institutions are responding to rising critiques of mainstream, scientific medicine (biomedicine). One response is the establishment of centers and programs devoted to whole person care. I assess the response of the McGill Programs in Whole Person Care (WPC) to these critiques, particularly its incorporation of spirituality into medicine. Through textual hermeneutics, participant observation, and semi-structured interviews with faculty members, I argue that WPC is constructing its own worldview and normative framework. It does this by selectively drawing from the religious traditions of ancient Greece, Buddhism, and Christianity, interpreting these selections in terms of Jungian psychology, and sometimes secularizing them. My aim is to better understand the theory and praxis of whole person care in McGill University's Faculty of Medicine as a case study but also the ethical issues it raises. I conclude by providing points of reflection for institutions wishing to incorporate these health ideas and practices into conventional medicine.

Full text
Abstract:
Aqua is an underwater biomimetic vehicle designed and built at McGill University that uses six paddles to produce control and propulsion forces. It has the particularity of having time-periodic thrust due to its oscillating paddles. Using an existing model of the vehicle, two types of controller were developed: a PD controller and a Floquet controller. The Floquet controller has the advantage of explicitly addressing the time-periodicity of the system. The performance of the controllers was assessed experimentally in the Caribbean Sea. We find that the vehicle was able to follow the prescribed trajectories with relative accuracy using both controllers. However, the Floquet controller slightly outperforms the PD controller. Furthermore, a key advantage of the Floquet controller is that it requires no tuning while the PD controller had to be tuned by trial and error.

Abstract:
Aujourd'hui, la communauté éducative dans son ensemble est confrontée à un défi universel : se préparer à l'ère de la post-pandémie-COVID-19. Ce défi signifie qu’il faut assurer un enseignement équitable et de qualité ainsi qu'une évaluation efficace et efficiente de l'apprentissage selon des modalités hybrides, flexibles ou entièrement à distance. En outre, les bureaux de soutien à l’enseignement (BSE) jouent un rôle essentiel pour relever et surmonter ce défi. Ce livre blanc met en lumière la manière dont les BSE, les centres d'enseignement et d'apprentissage et les entités équivalentes ont abordé et prévoient d'aborder les tendances et les problèmes de l'apprentissage numérique dans le contexte de la perturbation de l'enseignement causée par la COVID-19. Il commence par un aperçu du rôle traditionnel que les BSE et les entités équivalentes ont joué depuis leur création dans les établissements d'enseignement. Il décrit ensuite comment ce rôle a évolué pour devenir les premiers intervenants académiques dans le contexte de la pandémie COVID-19. Le document se poursuit par une discussion approfondie sur les défis auxquels les BSE ont été confrontés depuis l'éruption de la pandémie en mars 2020 et ceux qu'ils anticipent pour les semestres à venir. Il énumère également des exemples concrets de mesures qu'ils ont prises pour faire face à ces défis. En outre, il fournit des informations détaillées sur une action majeure entreprise par tous, à savoir le partage public d'une abondance de ressources pour soutenir le corps enseignant et les étudiants pendant la transition en ligne. Cette discussion met en évidence les ressources pertinentes en matière d'équité. La dernière section de ce document présente les leçons apprises et les recommandations des centres aux centres, ainsi que les commentaires d'experts et de chercheurs du domaine avec des idées et des approches adaptées au mandat actuel des centres pour les aider à mieux faire face à ce qui s'en vient. Les recommandations de ce livre blanc s’appliquent aux établissements d'enseignement, aux membres du corps enseignant, aux étudiants et aux décideurs politiques. Ce livre blanc a été préparé dans le cadre des travaux de l’Observatoire international sur les impacts sociétaux de l’IA et du numérique (OBVIA) sur les effets des systèmes d’intelligence artificielle et des outils numériques déployés pour lutter contre la propagation de la COVID-19 sur les sociétés soutenus par les Fonds de recherche du Québec (FRQ). Il a été rédigé par Nadia Naffi PhD, Université Laval, soutenue par la Chaire de leadership en enseignement (CLE) sur les pratiques pédagogiques innovantes en contexte numérique – Banque Nationale, la Chaire de recherche « Maker Culture » de l’Université Concordia, avec la participation des chercheur·e·s Ann-Louise Davidson PhD, Concordia University, Roger Kaufman PhD, Florida State University, Richard E (Dick) Clark PhD, University of Southern California, Brian Beatty PhD, San Francisco State University, Didier Paquelin PhD, Université Laval, des consultants Dawn M. Snyder PhD, Dawn Snyder Associates, et Guy Wallace, EPPIC Inc, et des assistante·s de recherche Azeneth Patino, Université Laval, Edem Gbetoglo, Université Laval, Nathalie Duponsel, Concordia University, Céleste Savoie, Université Laval, Isabelle Fournel, Université Laval, et Ivan Ruby, Concordia University.

Abstract:
More than one million “orphan” patients do not have a family physician in Quebec as revealed by the department of Health and Social Services scoreboard. This spring, Minister Dubé has launched several initiatives aimed at transforming the health system to facilitate access to high-quality and timely primary care services. These reforms focus primarily on the enrolment of patients with a family physician. Having access to a regular source of care is almost universally seen as a good thing. In this short note, Erin C. Strumpf, McGill University Professor and Fellow CIRANO, and her co-authors challenge this idea. They show that there is a tendency to confuse concepts and assume that repeated contact is evidence of a truly caring, trusting patient-physician relationship, which could ultimately lead to better health outcomes. If we want to effectively create and evaluate interventions aimed at improving primary care, it is essential to clearly identify the processes through which patient care can be improved and to identify the most relevant measures that actually capture the outcomes of interest such as affiliation and continuity of care. That is what the authors precisely do here. By being honest and clear about what we can actually measure and evaluate with the data we have, they argue that we create an opening for more creative approaches to health policy evaluation.
