Setelah dilakukan pengkajian dengan metode penelitian hukum normatif, akhirnya dapat disimpulkan sebagai berikut. Pertama, faktor penarik pelaksanaan investasi kepariwisataan di wilayah desa pakraman meliputi (a) keindahan alam dan kondisi sosial budaya yang unik dan bernilai tinggi; (b) faktor kebijakan dan regulasi pemerintah yang mendukung pelaksaaan investasi di wilayah desa pakraman; dan (c) di sisi lain desa pakraman dengan awig-awig yang dimilikinya dapat menjadi faktor pengendali bagi pelaksanaan investasi di wilayahnya.

"If We Dare To": Border Crossings in Erin Mouré’s O Cidadán
Authors: Skibsrud Johanna
Published: August 2017

This essay explores the space of contact between languages–particularly that of French and English–within Erin Mouré’s recent collection of poetry, O Cidadán. The following discussion demonstrates the manner in which a tangible place for each language, without appropriating one into another, is created on the page. Drawing on the writings of Mary Louise Pratt and Jacques Derrida, I argue that instead of defining the language interaction, or translating one language into another, Mouré constructs a "contact zone" where deferring/differing spaces of language intersect and are made "visible" and are "touched."
Rural Roots
Authors: Thoreson Kristine
Published: August 2017

As a Western Canadian artist, my work investigates methods through which we construct and deconstruct narratives of personal and cultural identity and the role of self-performance within these practices. My work is situated within the intersection of Performance Studies, visual art, and local scholarship. Through art I seek to enrich the growing body of knowledge regarding photography as a performance of identity, and to document personal experiences in the region of Southern Alberta. This photographic project is indicative of my tendency to work out in the landscape while not attempting to “capture” traditional landscape “scenery”. My goal is instead to get to know a place, and to discover or resist some kind of personal, cultural or topographical attachment; it is to discover what it is that draws me in (or repels me). Thus with this project, I do not seek to do an ethnographic study of what the rural places around Calgary Alberta may mean to certain people. Rather, I am interested in the intersection of space with place and how we transform wide open space into meaningful place.
Animal Liberation: A View from Political Science
Authors: Hamilton Paul
Published: August 2017

Political Science has tended not to problematize human domination over nonhuman animals. Political scientists have been engaged intellectually and politically with other struggles for justice and citizenship leading one to question the apparent indifference to the issue of ‘animal rights’. This paper accounts for the absence of animals in political science research and suggests that recent scholarship has begun to take animal liberation seriously. The paper then looks at the options for the broader animal liberation movement and suggests that incremental change is the best and only option for animal advocates in contemporary liberal democracies.

Staff-wide Mentoring of Pre-service Teachers: Benefits and Barriers
Authors: Smith Doug
Published: August 2017

School-university partnerships are purported to develop the collegial support needed for any educational change. They may also surmount barriers between pre-service and in- service teacher education. In this school-university partnership study involving staff wide mentoring of pre-service teachers as a change agent, the writer outlines the benefits to pre- and in-service teachers and the barriers encountered that prevented them from fulfilling partnership promise. Pre-service teachers achieved desired internship outcomes and change-resistant teachers developed collegiality and support. Central administration interference and lack of principal leadership created barriers. Suggestions for overcoming the barriers are offered.
Competency-based Education and Practical Training: Document Analysis and Critique
Authors: Guillemette François , Gauthier Clermont
Published: August 2017

Dans la première génération d’APC, le concept de compétence est lié aux concepts de comportement, pratique, performance et action (Gage & Winne, 1975; Hamilton, 1973; Hilbert, 1982; Howsam & Houston, 1972; Joyce, 1974; Leonard & Utz, 1974; Schostak, 1996; Spady, 1977; Tomlinson, 1995; Woodruffe, 1992). Sur le plan conceptuel, cette définition s’oppose à la perspective dichotomique inspirée de Chomsky (1957). Pour ce dernier, d’une part, la compétence est un potentiel d’action et non l’action comme telle; d’autre part, l’action qui actualise le potentiel-compétence est une performance.
Nature de la pédagogie différenciée et analyse des recherches portant sur l’efficacité de cette pratique pédagogique
Authors: Jobin Véronique , Gauthier Clermont
Published: August 2017

Les classes d’aujourd’hui sont hétérogènes. Que ce soit sur le plan cognitif, social, culturel ou affectif, les élèves faisant partie d’un même groupe présentent des différences sans doute plus importantes que ceux d’autrefois. Dans ce contexte, les responsables des systèmes d’éducation de plusieurs régions du monde se demandent quelles pratiques pédagogiques mettre en place pour favoriser la réussite scolaire de tous. La pédagogie différenciée apparaît aux yeux de bon nombre d’entre eux comme une solution voire une nécessité pour faire face à la diversité des élèves dans les écoles. Nous pensons, à l’instar d’Ellis (2001), qu’avant de généraliser une pratique pédagogique, il faut s’assurer que l’efficacité de cette dernière a été démontrée par la recherche empirique. Qu’en est-il de la pédagogie différenciée? La première section de cet article contient une description de la nature de cette pratique pédagogique. Dans la seconde partie, nous présentons une analyse des recherches portant sur l’efficacité de ce type de pédagogie.
Are Ontario Teachers Paid More Equitably? Do Local Variables Matter?
Authors: Li Xiaobin
Published: August 2017

This study investigated whether Ontario’s education funding reform of 1998 made teacher salaries more equitable. It also examined whether selected local variables had the same influence on teacher salaries in 2001-02 as they did in 1995-96 before the reform. Average teacher salaries before the reform in 1995-96 and after the reform in 2001-02 among school boards and among census divisions were compared to see whether the variation in teacher salaries increased or decreased. A partial correlation analysis was conducted to examine the influence on teacher salaries from local variables, which were derived from a literature review. This study finds that (a) teachers are paid more equitably today than before the reform, and (b) local variables no longer really matter, as a result of the changed provincial funding formula.
Moral Clarity: A Guide for Grown-up Idealists
Authors: Rizzo Kelly
Published: August 2017

The title of Susan Neiman’s 2008 book suggests that she will provide the reader some answers, or at least a lens through which they might gain clearer understanding of what is right and wrong in today’s world. Neiman argues that moral clarity can be obtained if the reader has the courage to examine critically the world around them and to take required action. Neiman uses historical writings from the past two centuries, religious and secular, to force the reader to reflect on the current state of society. Aspects of society which are good, evil, or, at the very least, disparate, are discussed. This leads readers to reflect on their place within that society. The purpose of which is to suggest alternative possibilities for a framework with which to examine contemporary events.
Frank McCourt’s Teacher Man: A Novel Approach to Teacher Learning and Professional Development
Authors: Schulz Renate
Published: August 2017

The purpose of this research was to investigate how stories can be a learning tool to help teachers make sense of and learn from their own stories of teaching. The participants in this study were teachers enrolled in a graduate level course.  Frank McCourt’s novel, Teacher Man acted as a stimulus, springboard and guide for class discussions and for teachers writing their own story of teaching. My mode of inquiry included collecting the teachers’ written responses to class readings, noting their oral responses during class discussions, asking them to complete a short questionnaire, and following up with a taped focus group three months after the completion of the course. By reading, hearing and discussing the stories of others, teachers came to recognize the power of stories.  Writing their own stories helped them to understand their own practice better.
The Impact of Professional Development on Beginning Teachers’ Practices in One Secondary School
Authors: Hinds Marjorie , Berger Marie-Josée
Published: August 2017

A case study was conducted in 2004-2005 on the professional development experiences of beginning teachers (1-5 years of experience) in an Ontario, Canada secondary school (Grades 7-12) and the impact of those experiences in improving their practices. For comparative purposes, the study included the perspectives of administrators from the same school on the impact of professional development on these teachers. The findings revealed that the literacy training program was successfully implemented at the school and positively affected beginning teachers’ knowledge, instructional strategies, and planning practices. Other findings indicated that beginning teachers needed subject content and instructional strategies, ongoing mentoring, and skills in both classroom management and mapping the curriculum. Based on the findings of the study, a new framework for professional development is suggested. A number of recommendations propose ways of connecting research, policy and practice that could ultimately improve the effectiveness of professional development programs for beginning teachers.   Key words: teacher professional development, beginning teacher, adult learning, self-efficacy, collective efficacy, supervision, organizational policies and culture

Mao was My Neighbour: Yao Zhongda and the “Opening” of Chinese Adult Education
Authors: Boshier Roger
Published: August 2017

After Deng Xiaoping’s 1978 reform and opening, foreigners had a chance to see adult education in China. As a result, many met Yao Zhongda, Chief of the Bureau of Workers’ and Peasants Education. From 1921 onwards, adult education has been a vital corollary of Communist revolution. Although Yao’s biography was extremely relevant to what foreigners saw, few knew much about their host. Yao made enthusiastic responses to Roby Kidd’s efforts to “open” China to the Toronto-based International Council of Adult Education. By 2013, he was 88 years old. The primary purpose of this paper was to capture his biography and reflect on what it means for 21st century China. A secondary purpose was to alert Beijing scholars to the importance of this key actor in the colourful drama of globalization and adult education in China
Negotiating the Confluence: Middle-Eastern, Immigrant, Sexual-Minority Men and Concerns for Learning and Identity
Authors: Eichler Matthew A. , Mizzi Robert C
Published: August 2017

Sexual-minority male immigrants re-locating from the Middle East to the United States and Canada have particular experiences upon entry and integration into their new societies. The needs of learning and identity are highlighted through a multiple case approach involving three men. Interviews were conducted with the three participants, which were analyzed by the authors using qualitative case analysis. The data highlights the unmet expectations for life as a new immigrant, as well as the complexities of becoming involved in sexual-minority settings. Their learning experiences may be explained using a theoretical framework of transformative learning. These findings suggest that sexual-minority immigrants have complex needs, such as identifying with appropriate communities and deconstructing false representations of “gay rights” and citizenship in popular culture. Educational and social programs could address these needs when considering what might be important for immigrant adult learners.
Improving Urban Students’ College Readiness as a Driver of High School Curriculum Enhancement
Authors: Boboc Marius , Nordgren R. D.
Published: August 2017

Many factors inhibit college completion by African-American high school graduates who come from low socio-economic backgrounds. Some factors are “cognitive,” while others can be classified as “non-cognitive.” Variables in the latter classification are examined in this study conducted at an urban high school in the Midwest with an African-American student population five times the national average, and in a city with a median income well below that of the nation. An instrument designed and validated to predict success of impoverished minority students in college was administered to over 200 students at this school. This paper outlines the connection between findings and specific curricular plans put forth by high school and district staff, assisted by two researchers from an area public university, as a way to prioritize the school resources aligned with non-cognitive variables leading to curriculum enhancement and successful student transition to college.

This paper reports the results of a mixed-method study that analyzed second language (L2) teachers’ and researchers’ interactions on an online forum organized to facilitate the discussion of six published articles written by the participating researchers. The project used Lavis et al.’s (2003) knowledge transfer framework and Graham et al. (2006) knowledge to action framework as foundations to create shared space with the view to addressing the linkage gap between L2 researchers and L2 teachers. It specifically created a virtual space for dialogue and brought the two groups together to discuss topics of common interest.  The asynchronous interaction produced a text-based set of data that reflected the ideational and linguistic choices of the participants. We use textlinguistic analysis procedures and refer to Gee’s (1990) Discourse theory to interpret these choices and understand how they shaped the direction and content of the interaction between researchers and practitioners.
Knowledge Mobilization and Educational Research: Politics, Languages, and Responsibilities
Authors: Ahmed Ghazala
Published: August 2017

In this book, Tara Fenwick and Lesley Farrell scrutinize the concept of knowledge mobilization by posing the following question: “Who determines what counts as impact, and for what purposes and what are the consequences of distinguishing users from producers in educational knowledge and research, and who benefits from such distinctions?” (p. 2). To answer this question, the editors focused on the following themes: considering the issues and the players, politics in knowledge flows, languages and enactments of knowledge mobilization, and responsibilities and rights in mobilizing knowledge. Fenwick and Farrell organized this book into four sections and 15 chapters to address the growing need for clarity around knowledge mobilization issues in educational research in Europe, United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Australia, China, and Russia.

A Post-World War II Tragedy: The Expulsion of Ethnic Germans From Poland and Czechoslovakia, 1945-49
Authors: Lamontagne Erica
Published: August 2017

Through a comparative approach, this essay examines the cruel and inhumane way in which ethnic Germans were expelled from Poland and the Sudetenland of Czechoslovakia in the years immediately following the end of World War II. It compares the nature of the expulsions in Poland and Czechoslovakia and how this negatively impacted the two countries in the aftermath of the expulsions. In Czechoslovakia especially, the nature of the expulsions of ethnic Germans greatly resembled Nazi policy toward Jewish people during the Third Reich. This essay also briefly examines the integration of ethnic German refugees from Poland and Czechoslovakia into both East and West Germany. As a result of ideological differences in East and West Germany, expellees had very different experiences upon resettlement, depending on where they arrived in Germany. The purpose of this essay is to break through the common misconception that most, or all, Germans at the end of World War II were criminals. Many ethnic Germans expelled from Poland and Czechoslovakia saw themselves as Poles or Czechoslovaks, and did not associate themselves with Nazi Germany.
NATIONALISM, SUFFRAGE & MATERNAL FEMINISM: RACE, GENDER & RELIGION
Authors: Wielink Michael
Published: August 2017

Abstract:The turn of the nineteenth century was an extremely dynamic and formative time in Canadian history as it defined its “imagined community.” Benedict Anderson’s Imagined Communities espoused nation and nationalism through his concept as “imagined communities,” both politically and culturally. “National identities are imagined as both intrinsically limited and sovereign. The nation is imagined as limited because, no matter the size or scope, it is finite in its inclusion and there is always “others” beyond its borders.” Through research on suffragist writings from both men and women, suffragist organizations membership, documents written about the future of Canada, and the concept of maternal feminism there remained a majority of people committed to a future “White Anglo-Saxon Protestant” nation. The women’s suffragist movement and “maternal feminism,” intertwined with nationalism, created a reciprocal effect, which established an “imagined community” that included those who belonged and “others” who clearly did not. Suffragist, armed with new found political influence, endorsed policies of assimilation or legislation to keep Canada from accepting people of “degenerating” races or religions. Clearly, nationalism and an emerging Canadian identity had profound influences on the suffragist movement and maternal feminism, causing once a once marginalized gender to now subjugate “others” based on class, race or religion.
Autism, Expert Discourses, and Subjectification: A Critical Examination of Applied Behavioural Therapies
Authors: Gruson-Wood Julia F
Published: August 2017

Applied behavioural therapies are widely adopted interventions that have become the standard of healthcare and expert knowledge for autistic people in Canada. These therapies are methods of individualized behavioural modification whereby skills are taught, and socially “undesirable” or “inappropriate” behaviour is regulated according to expert claims that focus on correction, imitation, repetition, reinforcements, and environmental modification. Despite their prevalence, these therapies are highly controversial methods within autism communities, with mostly non-autistic parents and clinicians as their main proponents, and autistic self-activists as their critics. The ethnographic research presented will examine the culture, training, and knowledge practices of behavioural therapy providers in Ontario, to study disciplinary techniques that are used to create expert subjects. In order to operate as a technology for producing optimal results in the autistic subject, working as a behavioural therapist involves multiple techniques such as completing intensive exercises consisting of audible and textual surveillance, recorded sessions, and intra-therapeutic replicability. These techniques and exercises often work to discipline expressions of care in accordance with a “psychocentric” framework for understanding autism and supporting autistic people.

Generating Ambivalence: Media Representations of Canadian Transplant Tourism
Authors: McKay Lindsey
Published: August 2017

This article addresses transplant tourism as one facet of the international organ trade. It asks whether mainstream media portrayals of Canadian transplant tourist journeys convey messages supportive of stronger efforts to stop extra-territorial organ purchase. A postcolonial theoretical approach using Mary Louise Pratt’s study of travel writing is employed to conduct a discourse analysis of Canadian media and cultural representation from 1988 to 2015. The public learns that transplant tourism is “bad” but understandable, and either not our problem or a symptom of another problem. Three forms this message takes are: the broader organ trade is a distant and insurmountable problem; transplant tourists are innocent victims; and, resolution of a larger, national organ scarcity problem will end transplant tourism. I conclude that the media generates ambivalence towards the issue of transplant tourism. Reader attention is drawn away from health outcomes and human rights, especially of organ providers – reasons Canada might do more to stop transplant tourism – towards the challenges faced by transplant tourists, with the effect of eclipsing public discussion of whether and how to stop Canadians from buying organs in other countries.
Social Justice and Multiculturalism: Persistent Tensions in the History of US Social Welfare and Social Work
Authors: Reisch Michael
Published: August 2017

Social justice has been a central normative component of U.S. social welfare and social work for over a century, although the meaning and implications of the term have often been ambiguous. A major source of this ambiguity lies in the conflict between universalist views of social justice and those which focus on achieving justice for specific groups. This conflict has been masked by several long-standing assumptions about the relationship between social justice and multiculturalism – assumptions which have been challenged by recent developments.

The assumption that the pursuit of social justice requires the creation of a more egalitarian society has been challenged by the new political-economic realities of globalization. The assumption that the maintenance of individual rights complements the pursuit of social equality has been challenged by racially-based attacks on social welfare benefits and civil rights. Most significantly, the assumption that a socially just society is one in which different groups share a compatible vision of social justice has been challenged by the realities of multiculturalism.

This paper explores the evolution of four themes regarding the relationship between social justice and multiculturalism during the past century and discusses their implications for the contemporary demographic and cultural context of the U.S. These themes are: the relationship of cultural diversity to the nation’s values and goals; the contradiction between coerced cultural assimilation and coerced physical and social segregation; the relationship between individual and group identity and rights; and the linkage between “Americanization” and the equal application of justice.

Introduction
Derrida, Democracy and Violence
Authors: Mansfield Nick
Published: August 2017

Democracy is usually identified with openness, order and pluralism and thus peace. Yet, everywhere, from the political convulsions that bring it into being to the wars that aim to extend it, democracy is violent. Usually this violence is seen as accidental or forced upon democracy. The aim of this paper is to argue that the violence of democracy springs from its inextricable if denied relationship to revolution, the drive to re-found the political order properly and definitively. Through a reading of Derrida’s account of the relationship between violence and justice in Walter Benjamin, violence is identified as the unstable founding moment which democracy must both pass through in order to emerge and also endlessly recall in its drive to both expand and complete its mission.
