Reflections on establishing a network to strengthen leadership of learning and teaching in the creative arts
Authors: J Fiona Peterson Barbara de la Harpe, Thembi Mason, 
Published: December 2021

Continuous improvements in learning and teaching are now expected as higher education moves to a system of mass education. This requires increased institutional leadership in learning and teaching, and also presents the sector with the challenge of finding ways to enhance learning and teaching leadership, especially at the disciplinary level. Is the formation of a national strategic knowledge network for those in learning and teaching leadership roles in the creative arts disciplines a credible, convincing and achievable means to address this learning and teaching leadership challenge? In this paper, the authors reflect on an attempt to implement such a network for learning and teaching leaders across the creative arts disciplines of creative writing, art, performing arts (music, theatre and dance), architecture and design. We highlight the assumptions underpinning the approach and reflect on whether these have been challenged, or not, in the process of conceptualising, designing and developing the network. Based on our experience of leading this network initiative, we reveal fundamental characteristics that we believe need to persist, in order for a learning and teaching leadership network to take hold and thrive in the creative arts.
Leading the leaders: enhancing the examination of creative arts doctoral degrees
Authors: Sandra Burr Jen Webb, Donna Lee Brien, 
Published: December 2021

The creative arts disciplines constitute an important growth area for research higher degrees and they have built a body of knowledge and a set of practices associated with research and research higher degrees. However, there is virtually no empirical work in, or across, the creative arts disciplines that investigate how HDR examiners arrive at the commentary presented in their reports. This article reports on a current project that, based on a process of national benchmarking, data analysis and through extensive consultation, is investigating current assessment practices, processes and standards in creative arts higher degrees by research.
Proteus as writer: the role of the (academic) writing class in preparing Australian graduates for careers in the creative arts
Authors: Williamson Rosemary 
Published: December 2021

For academic leaders in the creative arts in Australia, recent publications inspire and inform ongoing consideration of how best to prepare students in practice-led disciplines for professional life beyond the academy. In 2010, the Australia Council for the Arts reported on its most recent survey of the careers of professional artists in Australia and, in 2011, the Australian Learning & Teaching Council published threshold learning outcomes for students in practice-led disciplines in the creative arts. Both point to the need for graduates to have skills that enable a confident transition between the academy and the creative industries, and that strengthen graduates’ prospects for continuing employability in fields in which the protean career is common. These skills are practice-based and specialist, and generic. Of the generic skills, written communication is typically demanded at university as ‘academic writing’. Such writing can, however, be restrictively perceived as being formulaic and of limited relevance to professional life beyond the academy. This paper advocates the teaching of academic writing to students in the creative arts, but in such ways that transcend narrow generic definition in order to develop in students both technical competence in formal, written communication and an awareness of principles of academic writing that are relevant to professional writing more broadly, within the context of the protean career. In doing so, the paper focuses on academic leadership as represented by those who design curricula for, and teach students in, practice-led disciplines in the creative arts. While this iteration of leadership may be less visible than others, it nevertheless can be formative and transformative for students as future protean careerists.
The liminal and apophatic voice of the writer in/as autobiography: a subjective academic narrative
Authors: Arnold Josie 
Published: December 2021

In this paper, I engage with Roland Barthes’ The grain of the voice (1985) to move into a discussion of the apophatic or liminal unknowable voice of the scriptor. The narrative of self claims a reality rather than a fictionality. Yet in a text proclaimed as an autobiography, there are multiple authorial voices available for the reader to obtain, just as there are multiple prisms that readers bring to the text itself. Critical elements emerge in the writing and the reading of an autobiographer. This paper does not accept the contention that a ‘subject writer’ engages an ‘object reader’ in the recorded life that aims to seduce the reader. Rather, it proposes the production of a liminal voice that is apparent to the reader, but unknowable for the writer. It looks at how the subjective self reveals itself through performance rather than self-analysis that is a type of translation of self on to the page. The Greek words ‘apophasis’ and ‘liminal’ are investigated in relationship to the proclaimed autobiographic text. The apophatic is shown as a way of indicating what is both said and kept away from saying yet indicated in the text, the liminal as being on the threshold of the expressed text. Both challenge views of textuality and discourse to deal with Roland Barthes’ idea of the ‘death of the author as god’ that enlivens the role of the reader. The subjective academic narrative is the methodology I describe, apply and exemplify .

Published: December 2021

This study aims to investigate how String of Pearls is referred to as a geopolitical strategy adopted by China and a threat to India as India is a growing regional power? China has invested a lot in building its military bases network in the countries of sea lines that are falling on the Indian Ocean. China has also developed commercial facilities and its military bases, which refer to as String of Pearls. This study will find the interest of China in expanding its engagements in the region of the Indian Ocean. China is investing heavily in the construction of ports, roads, military, and commercial bases along with so many huge products in the countries providing China bases to increase its chain of String of Pearls. The study will identify how these investments made by China are paying off back to China. This research paper will cover Chinese investment in Pakistan, Myanmar, Djibouti, Persian Gulf, Strait of Hormuz, Myanmar, Massawa port Eritrea, Iran, Lamu port Kenya, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, etc.
CLASS-BASED DEATH: COVID-19 AMONG THE ELDERLY PEOPLE IN NIGERIA
Authors: Muhammad Maigari Abdullahi 
Published: December 2021

The article examined the nature of deaths related to COVID-19 complications in Nigeria based on age. The researcher observes that National Centre for Disease Control, responsible for handling COVID-19 and reporting daily cases, only provides crude data about active, confirmed cases and deaths without grouping the data based on demographic characteristics. This motivated the researcher to sample some people who died as a result of the COVID-19 to carry out an age-specific analysis. Fifteen elderly people whose death was attributed to COVID-19 were sampled. To achieve the purpose of the study, secondary data were sourced, presented, interpreted, and analysed in a tabular form. The study found that there is a paucity of COVID-19 data that reveals the sociodemographic characteristics of either affected persons or those who died. Similarly, the paper established most of the elderly people who died as a result of the COVID-19 were at the top echelon of social class.

Authors: Kerebungu Ferdinand , Fathimah Siti , Sinuraya Iren Mahayani Br 
Published: December 2021

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis hubungan sosial yang terbentuk antara guru dengan orang tua siswa. Hal ini dikarenakan sekolah yang diteliti mengalami penurunan prestasi, baik oleh peserta didiknya hingga pada kualitas sekolah tersebut, sehingga mengalami kemunduran dibandingkan sekolah lainnya (dalam hal ini sekolah SD Xaverius Kabanjahe dijadikan sebagai pembanding dalam penelitian ini yang merupakan salah satu sekolah swasta favorit di desa tersebut). Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode penelitian deskriptif kualitatif. Hasil penelitian, hubungan sosial orang tua siswa dengan guru SD Negeri 040530 Bunuraya tidak berjalan sesuai dengan harapan karena orang tua siswa homogen berpendidikan rendah, kondisi finansial menegah ke bawah dan banyak siswa yang tinggal bersama wali. Orang tua/wali siswa memiliki cita-cita yang sangat sederhana untuk masa depan anaknya, sedangkan guru ingin memberikan motivasi kepada siswa supaya bsisa menjadi anak yang berprestasi memiliki nilai yang bagus dan mampu bersaing serta bisa membawa nama baik sekolah sehingga sekolah akan mengalami peningkatan siswa baru karena memiliki banyak peminat. Faktor-faktor yang membuat SD Negeri 040530 Bunuraya tidak mampu bersaing dengan sekolah lain karena, SD Negeri 040530 Bunuraya tidak memiliki prestasi-prestasi unggul yang dapat di pertandingkan di tingkat kabupaten maupun provinsi. Fasilitas yang kurang memadai, tenaga pendidik yang standar, gedung sekolah yang sederhana, tidak ada drum band dan IQ siswa yang mengah ke bawah serta kondisi finansial orang tua siswa mengah kebawah.

Conservation Laws -- a Source for Distortionless Propagation and Time Delays
Authors: Rasvan Vladimir 
Published: December 2021

Since the very first paper of J. Bernoulli in 1728, a connection exists between initial boundary value problems for hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations (PDE) in the plane (with a single space coordinate accounting for wave propagation) and some associated Functional Equations (FE). From the point of view of dynamics and control (to be specific, of dynamics for control) both type of equations generate dynamical and controlled dynamical systems. The functional equations may be difference equations (in continuous time), delay-differential (mostly of neutral type) or even integral/integro-differential. It is possible to discuss dynamics and control either for PDE or FE since both may be viewed as self contained mathematical objects. A more recent topic is control of systems displaying conservation laws. Conservation laws are described by nonlinear hyperbolic PDE belonging to the class ``lossless'' (conservative); their dynamics and control theory is well served by the associated energy integral. It is however not without interest to discuss association of some FE. Lossless implies usually distortionless propagation hence one would expect here also lumped time delays. The paper contains some illustrating applications from various fields: nuclear reactors with circulating fuel, canal flows control, overhead crane, drilling devices, without forgetting the standard classical example of the nonhomogeneous transmission lines for distortionless and lossless propagation. Specific features of the control models are discussed in connection with the control approach wherever it applies.

Published: December 2021

El tipo de condiciones meteorologías que se presentan en un espacio exterior, provocan un tipo de uso del espacio, así como la permanencia del usuario en el mismo, por la sensación de confort provocada por las condiciones climáticas, esto a diferencia de los espacios interiores donde se puede controlar sistemas de enfriamiento o calefacción, lo cual protege al usuario de las condiciones climatológicas.
Para la evaluación del confort en espacios exteriores de la ciudad de Tijuana, Baja California, se seleccionó un caso de estudio, en el cual se llevó a cabo la evaluación de sensación térmica percibida, por medio de levantamiento de encuestas de percepción, donde se utilizaron criterios de vestimenta, genero, actividad, edad, permanencia, uso adecuado del sitio, al mismo tiempo que se realizaba la encuesta se tomaba la temperatura de bulbo seco, humedad relativa, el peso y la altura del usuario, se recopilo la información de sensación térmica basado en la norma ISO 7730-2005.
Se realizó el análisis de los datos estadísticos, y se pudo observar cual es la temperatura de confort, con la cual se podrán diseñar espacios apropiados y adecuaciones a espacios existentes ya en uso, con lo que se aprovecharán los espacios exteriores durante las temperaturas críticas.
