Al, Hudithi Faisal Abdyllah S. "Social capital and participative budgeting : a process thinking perspective." Thesis, University of Hull, 2017. http://hydra.hull.ac.uk/resources/hull:15671.

Full text

Abstract:

Over the past years, participative budgeting has attracted researchers and scholars to investigate its impact on subordinates’ behaviours. Earlier empirical studies have investigated this impact as either a direct relationship, with the influence of a moderator or an antecedent or with both moderators and antecedents. Yet, prior studies’ findings were inconsistent with each other. This study depicts that participative budgeting is governed by the concept of Social Capital and its different dimensions, relational, structural and cognitive. Scholars conceptualised social capital as a set of soci

Cette thèse appréhende la construction d'une utopie réelle féministe environnementaliste à partir de l'expérience du mouvement féministe agroécologique au Brésil.

La sociologie du genre et la sociologie des mouvements sociaux sont articulées à la pensée décoloniale féministe, à l'écoféminisme, à l'écologie politique latinoaméricaine.

La position de l’artiste dans l’écosystème du marché de l’art contemporain n’est pas satisfaisante à l’heure actuelle en raison de la mutation du milieu socio-économique de l’art.

Aussi, l’interrogation cruciale tourne autour de savoir si l’artiste réussira à trouver d’autres voies pour se positionner différemment et y gagner en autonomie. Mes propres expériences m’ont conduit à penser que l’entreprise-artiste, concept porté par l’équipe de recherches Art&Flux depuis 2006, peut apporter une solut

This thesis describes a pretest - posttest study to increase the effectiveness of art journals at the high school level. The targeted population consisted of students in the ninth through twelfth grades in a middle class community, located in central Virginia.

Abstract:

Drawing on the intersection of tourism geography and economic geography, this thesis contributes to the lack of diverse economic studies in tourism research, and deconstructs the hegemonic concept of singular economy and its agencies in tourism industry. Collaborative economy and co-creation of tourism experience enable alternative agencies in tourism industry by empowering the visitors and locals. Thus, understanding co-creation and including various stakeholders contributes to more sustainable tourism development. This thesis focuses on locals’ point of view and their motivations to host, an

Abstract:

The study reported in this dissertation investigated the relationships between thinking style, participation in classroom dialogue and learning outcomes. Classroom dialogue is a commonly used method for teaching and learning, and ways/strategies of taking advantage of classroom dialogue to optimise learning need to be specified. The study addresses this issue. Talking has traditionally been viewed as the main way of participation in classroom dialogue, and there is evidence for its learning benefit. However, silent participants have largely been overlooked and little is known about the functio

Abstract:

Over the last four decades national environmental groups have become an important means of political participation for many British citizens. Since the mid-1980s these organizations have established a number of local groups. There are still some gaps in our understanding of these groups, particularly relating to participation at the grass-roots level. This investigation examines the British environmental movement, focusing on those who become coordinators of local groups, and attempts to find the correlates of their environmental activism.

Adventure sport participation numbers have significantly increased over the period of the past ten years; it has been suggested that the emergence of an experience economy, where experiences have more value than possessions, could be a key factor for this increase. Motivations for taking part in an adventure sport activity varies between participants, and perhaps even more so than those motivations that were expressed by participants’ pre-experience economy. There are a number of theories about increased participant numbers; for example, the type of demographic, how they approach participation

This thesis breaks new ground by attending to two contemporary developments in art and science. In art, computer-mediated interactive artworks comprise creative engagement between collaborating practitioners and a creatively participating audience, erasing all notions of a dividing line between them. The procedural character of this type of communicative real-time interaction replaces the concept of a finished artwork with a ‘field of artistic communication'. In science, the field of creativity research investigates creative thought as mental operations that combine and reorganise extant knowl

Abstract:

In the field of planning, there is widespread consensus that the mechanisms in which most planners use to engage with the public are ineffective and exclusive. Although there has been much work done on the techniques planners can adopt to reach out to underrepresented segments of the community, few municipalities have adopted them. This thesis seeks to advance the conversation on public participation beyond the mechanisms and into a discussion of why only certain communities are implementing these more progressive, efficient, effective, and equitable measures. By depicting how public participa

Abstract:

The current study was an extension of research reported by Krohn (2010), which showed that daily credit for self-reported participation in designated credit units tended to balance participation across students (i.e., fewer non-participants, more credit-level participants, and fewer dominant participants). The purpose of the current study was to determine if similar results would be achieved by randomly selecting half of the discussion days in designated credit units for participation credit. The study was done in 3 large sections of an undergraduate class (approximately 54 students per class

Abstract:

Introduction: Student leadership is currently a critical topic at South African universities. Leadership skills are essential to the development of humanity and universities play a vital role in the development of students to become future leaders. The development and practice of leadership at university level can benefit student development and can contribute to the good of society, which is crucial at this date and time. However, very limited research has been done on what motivates students to develop their own leadership skills. Research purpose: The objective of this study was to explore

Abstract:

Some researchers suggest that quality is preserved when students are rewarded for quantity of class participation (Boniecki & Moore, 2003; Bruss, 2009; Mainkar, 2007; Zaremba & Dunn, 2004); however, few studies have targeted the systematic assessment of participation quality. The primary purpose of the study was to develop a reliable system for rating quality of student participation, investigate whether quality of participation is preserved when students are given credit for the amount of class participation, and examine the relationship between participation quality and important course var

Abstract:

Our public culture is rapidly shrinking: our nation is replete with residents instead of citizens. Part of the blame for the impoverishment of public life is the retreat and subsequent almost total isolation of intellectuals, those who put their deep training and experience to work in sociopolitical contexts in a public vernacular. The failure of most traditional intellectuals to reach a public audience is a failure of rhetoric; public intellectuals, on the other hand, mark rhetorical success in connecting the worlds of the public and the intellectual to advance change.

However, these studies also showed if students lack intrinsic motivations and participation, they don’t use the best thinking skills in BBS. The main purpose of the study is to survey the active-participating users’ demographic profile, participating perceptions, motivations, involvement levels, and critical thinking to investigate whether BBS helps to facilitate users’ communication an

Abstract:

The inadequacies of Black education have been approached from various angles including government intervention in the form of legislation, socio-economic measures, and others. People have also discovered this inadequacies and are struggling to resolve them in the form of 'alternative schools' or 'people's education' campaigns. The focus of this thesis is on community participation in the provision of education looking at two case studies in the Durban Functional Region.

Abstract:

The backbone of this study was a systems thinking based analysis of the management and control of predators as practiced in South Africa since the advent of Europeans in 1652. The first bounties were introduced for a variety of animal species in 1656. Many species became labeled as vermin and were persecuted, often with the intention of eradication. A variety of controls have been applied, of which many have not kept pace with contemporary thinking or technology, and which by simply killing predators fail to address the crux of the issue of predator – livestock conflict.
