Abstract:

This practice-based research is a reflection upon a community art practice mediated via the social use of digital technologies such as social media, Free Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) and open data. In combining existing community art methods and methodologies, with those taken from the social use of digital technologies, an attempt has been made to expand community art to include these social sites productively within its practice. Over the past 40 years, community-focused art practice has produced a significant and mature body of critique derived from a range of issues such as community

Abstract:

Large regional health authorities are challenged to find effective ways to increase interprofessional and intra-regional collaboration so that expertise and knowledge can be shared, enhanced, disseminated and more effectively translated into practice. Communities of practice (CoPs) have been introduced into healthcare over the last few years as a strategy to improve knowledge translation and organizational performance. The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore healthcare clinicians' experiences of being a member of a clinically-focused CoP. Semi-structured interviews with 15 CoP mem

<p> Shinto is a native Japanese religion with a history that goes back thousands of years. Because of its close ties to Japanese culture, and Shinto’s strong emphasis on place in its practice, it does not seem to be the kind of religion that would migrate to other areas of the world and convert new practitioners. However, not only are there examples of Shinto being practiced outside of Japan, the people doing the practice are not always of Japanese heritage. </p><p> The Tsubaki Grand Shrine of America is one of the only fully functional Shinto shrines in the United States and is run by

As community food initiatives have become more widespread and well-established, they have become increasingly recognised for their ability to generate innovative civil society responses to a range of local needs and societal challenges (not least those framed around sustainability and social justice). However, despite their potential for catalysing action at the grassroots, significant challenges are faced in overcoming limited resources and power; and in attempting to maintain internal stability whilst working towards generating long-term and transformative social change.

Abstract:

This thesis deals with two related topics: core development objectives in community forestry in the Philippines, and the 'instruments' of development practice which have been used to address these objectives. The two topics have currency beyond forestry development and are at the centre of a debate about sustainable development. Community forestry aims to democratise resource access, alleviate poverty, and ensure the sustainability of forest resources. Development practice, however, has often led to contradictory outcomes. This paradox is examined from three perspectives: that of political

Abstract:

The number of students taking American Sign Language (ASL) at the post-secondary level continues to increase as more Deaf-related graduate programs and employment settings require fluent ASL skills. Western Oregon University (WOU) is one of the few existing programs in the United States that offers four years of ASL instruction; however, as a rural university it has limited access to a Deaf community. The problem of practice is that students often have little exposure to rich language models who are fluent in ASL, which impacts their legitimate peripheral participation (LPP) in the local Deaf

Abstract:

The term Community of Practice (CoP) is often used rather loosely to describe many types of instructional settings that support more constructivist or social learning settings. This study differentiates CoP from other learning communities with greater discipline in defining CoP, as characterized by sustained self-organization for example. Such a CoP sits quite apart from the typical intent of instructional settings. The literature on intentional CoP suggests that the greatest challenges are a sense of interdependence among CoP members, the authenticity of the practice or purpose, and a trajec

Abstract:

This thesis explores the limits and possibilities for community development practice to maintain dynamism and integrity in a professional context. There is a particular emphasis upon reflexivity and its relevance in processes of accountability towards both communities and state policy. The study was born out of dissonance surrounding the researcher’s community development practice mid-way through New Labour’s 1997 to 2010 administration. It argues that New Labour’s social functionalist approach proved to be problematic for the maintenance the reflexive and personal commitment necessary to the
