Bewegtes Konfliktmanagement
Creators: name: Staudinger, Peter Michael
Year: 2016

description: Das vorliegende Manuskript behandelt einen ganzheitlichen Ansatz für ein präventives und kuratives Konfliktmanagement-Konzept für Unternehmen. Dabei geht es um die Validierung der These, dass Motorik als Basiswerkzeug für Konfliktbehanldung verwendbar ist und sich mit Elementen der Psychomotorik verbinden lässt.
Durch die hermeneutische Arbeitsmethode gelingt es dem Autor auf Grund von spezifi-schen wissenschaftlichen Aussagen, eine allgemein gültige deduktive Schlussfolgerung für die bearbeitet Fragestellung auszuarbeiten und belegt, dass es de facto möglich ist durch Bewegung Konfliktinterventionen für Unternehmen zu verbessern.
Ferner wird aus dieser Arbeit ersichtlich, dass die Verbindung zwischen Wahrnehmung und Verhaltensweisen einen wesentlichen Einfluss auf den zwischenmenschlichen Umgang hat. Wobei ein wertschätzender und konstruktiver Umgang sich sowohl sprachlich, aber vor al-lem in nonverbaler Kommunikation wiederfindet und entscheidend für den weiteren Prozess einer Konfliktbehandlung ist. Die Bewegung dient dabei als Vehikel um Selbst- und Fremdwahrnehmung zu trennen, Sensibilität gegenüber sich selbst und anderen aufzubau-en und lässt den Perspektivenwechsel offenkundig werden.

description: Aboriginal teacher education programs have existed in Canada for four decades. Theirprimary purpose is to increase the number of Aboriginal teachers in Canadian schoolsso more relevant and effective education can be provided for Aboriginal children thanwlmt federal and provincial schooling has offered them in the past. This article presentsthe results of an examination of the Aboriginal Teacher Education Program (ATEP)at the University of Alberta that took place between 2011 and 2015. The study exam­ined the reasons why people enrol in ATEP, their experiences both in higher educationand in ATEP specifically, the perceived adequacy of their preparation as teachers, andtheir experiences as beginning teachers in both provincial and band-controlled schools.It continues and expands on previous work with the Indian Teacher Education Pro­gram at the University of Saskatchewan.Our findings suggest that Aboriginal teachers often enter the teaching professionin response to the need for more effective and appropriate education for Aboriginalchildren, and that ATEP is adequately preparing them to provide culturally relevantand equal educational opportunities for Aboriginal children. Our participants' expe­riences as students in ATEP were overwhelmingly positive and culturally affirming.We conclude that ATEP is a high-calibre program that is making important contribu­tions to improving education for Aboriginal peoples at all levels, and that it can serveas an exemplar for teacher education programs across Canada that have the same goal.

Die Résistance im Kino Melvilles
Creators: name: Baurenhas, Klaus
Year: 2016

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit dem Résistance-Bild in Jean-Pierre Melvilles Film „L’armée des ombres“. Im ersten Teil wird auf die Bedeutung eingegangen, welche Erzählungen auf das kollektive Gedächtnis haben können. Anschließend wird kurz De Gaulles Résistance-Mythos vorgestellt, dieser widerspricht oft den tatsächlichen historischen Ereignissen und präsentiert Frankreich als geeinte Nation im Widerstand und spielt vor allem die Bedeutung von Vichy herunter. 1943 erschien der Roman „L’armée des ombres“ von Joseph Kessel der Melville als Vorlage für seinen Film diente. Im praktischen Teil dieser Arbeit werden ausgewählte Szenen des Films auf mit der Romanvorlage und der Realität abgeglichen, um herauszufinden, ob Melvilles Werk sich näher an der Realität oder dem gaullistischen Mythos orientiert.

description: Assisted driving for connected cars is one of the main applications that 5G-and-beyond networks shall support. In this work, we propose an assisted driving system leveraging the synergy between connected vehicles and the edge of the network infrastructure, in order to envision global traffic policies that can effectively drive local decisions. Local decisions concern individual vehicles, e.g., which vehicle should perform a lane-change manoeuvre and when; global decisions, instead, involve whole traffic flows. Such decisions are made at different time scales by different entities, which are integrated within an edge-based architecture and can share information. In particular, we leverage a queuing-based model and formulate an optimization problem to make global decisions on traffic flows. To cope with the problem complexity, we then develop an iterative, linear-time complexity algorithm called Bottleneck Hunting (BH). We show the performance of our solution using a realistic simulation framework, integrating a Python engine with ns-3 and SUMO, and considering two relevant services, namely, lane change assistance and navigation, in a real-world scenario. Results demonstrate that our solution leads to a reduction of the vehicles' travel times by 66 in the case of lane change assistance and by 20 for navigation, compared to traditional, local-coordination approaches.

Observing the First Stars and Black Holes

description: The high sensitivity of JWST will open a new window on the end of the cosmological dark ages. Small stellar clusters, with a stellar mass of several 10^6 M_sun, and low-mass black holes (BHs), with a mass of several 10^5 M_sun should be directly detectable out to redshift z=10, and individual supernovae (SNe) and gamma ray burst (GRB) afterglows are bright enough to be visible beyond this redshift. Dense primordial gas, in the process of collapsing from large scales to form protogalaxies, may also be possible to image through diffuse recombination line emission, possibly even before stars or BHs are formed. In this article, I discuss the key physical processes that are expected to have determined the sizes of the first star-clusters and black holes, and the prospect of studying these objects by direct detections with JWST and with other instruments. The direct light emitted by the very first stellar clusters and intermediate-mass black holes at z>10 will likely fall below JWST's detection threshold. However, JWST could reveal a decline at the faint-end of the high-redshift luminosity function, and thereby shed light on radiative and other feedback effects that operate at these early epochs. JWST will also have the sensitivity to detect individual SNe from beyond z=10. In a dedicated survey lasting for several weeks, thousands of SNe could be detected at z>6, with a redshift distribution extending to the formation of the very first stars at z>15. Using these SNe as tracers may be the only method to map out the earliest stages of the cosmic star-formation history. Finally, we point out that studying the earliest objects at high redshift will also offer a new window on the primordial power spectrum, on 100 times smaller scales than probed by current large-scale structure data.

description: This study explores the personal and professional experiences of a small group of in­structors teaching a newly required concentrated course on Indigenous education ina teacher education program at a university in Western Canada. Interviews with threenon-lndigenous and four Indigenous teacher educators focused on the experiences,challenges, and successes of planning and teaching this required course. The findingsreveal the ways in which these teacher educators contemplate the legitimacy of theirown lived experience and identities in their teaching of Indigenous content, perspec­tives, and pedagogies. Furthermore, they reveal effective teaching strategies with pre­service teachers tlmt include connecting with the Aboriginal community and learningfrom place, As teacher education reform is guided by a commitment to Indigenous ed­ucation, there is much to learn from the ways teacher educators are taking up, chal­lenging, and transforming institutional practices that advance Indigenous educationin mainstream institutions.

description: This work presents the design and implementation of a blockchain system that enables the trustable transactive energy management for distributed energy resources (DERs). We model the interactions among DERs, including energy trading and flexible appliance scheduling, as a cost minimization problem. Considering the dispersed nature and diverse ownership of DERs, we develop a distributed algorithm to solve the optimization problem using the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) method. Furthermore, we develop a blockchain system, on which we implement the proposed algorithm with the smart contract, to guarantee the transparency and correctness of the energy management. We prototype the blockchain in a small-scale test network and evaluate it through experiments using real-world data. The experimental results validate the feasibility and effectiveness of our design.

While Indigenous education in teacher education must prioritize addressingthe learning needs of Indigenous students, it must also serve to shift the gravely lackingcommon knowledge of most Canadians regarding Indigenous peoples in Canada. Inthis article, the author shares the results of her doctoral study investigating the use ofcritical place-based education, in Indigenous education in teacher education, to addressand improve the preparedness of predominantly white settler pre-service teachers inbuilding relationships in their own teaching practice so that they can do a good job ofincluding Indigenous peoples and perspectives in their teaching. Employing themethodology of self-study of teacher education practice (S-STEP), she has analyzedtrends and patterns in student assignments, responses, and anonymous feedback in17 sections of a required course in Aboriginal education in a Faculty of Education.Centreing Land and local Indigenous peoples can support unsettling whiteness, andcan reveal and recover Canadians' existing citizenship implications related to Landand to Indigenous peoples, to serve a just future in Canada.

Slides for Webinar: DER and Network Integrity: Meter-Level Operating Envelopes
Residential distributed energy resources (DER) such as solar PV and batteries are becoming increasingly common. This is creating opportunities for DER owners to provide system-level services through aggregators. However, as the volume of DER providing services increase, the more necessary is to ensure the integrity of the distribution network; guaranteeing that voltages and power flows remain within limits. But the big barrier for distribution companies is that they cannot directly manage DER or aggregators. To overcome this barrier in an effective way, this webinar presents and discusses the concept of meter-level operating envelopes. In this concept, distribution companies calculate, in real-time or day-ahead, operating envelopes (time-varying export or import limits) at the connection point of the customers (where the meter is). This information is then given to aggregators for them to consider it as a hard constraint when deciding how to manage their DER portfolio. The concept and its effectiveness are illustrated using a realistic Australian distribution network. Finally, the webinar discusses the challenges associated with the calculation and implementation of such operating envelopes, including smart meter data, interactions among the three phases, fairness, and reactive power.

description: Photoluminescence spectra from disordered InN were studied in very high magnetic fields. The samples had Gaussian spectra with low temperature emission peaks at 0.82 and 0.98eV respectively. The average spatial extent of the excitonic wave functions, inferred from the diamagnetic shift, is only 2-3nm. This shows that the recombination is from an ensemble of highly localized states within a landscape of a smooth (classical) disorder potential of strength of the order of 10meV. The anomalies in the temperature dependence of the photoluminescence peak and linewidth give further support to the picture of trapped photoexcited carriers.

We adopt a guided coarse-to-fine strategy involving semantically conditioned generation of bounding box layouts, pixel-level part layouts and ultimately, the object depictions themselves. We use Graph Convolutional Networks, Deep Recurrent Networks along with custom-designed Conditional Variational Autoencoders to enable flexible, diverse and category-aware generation of 2-D objects in a controlled manner. The performance scores for generated objects reflect MeronymNet's superior performance compared to multiple strong baselines and ablative variants. We also showcase MeronymNet's suitability for controllable object generation and interactive object editing at various levels of structural and semantic granularity.

description: A novel 4-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (4D EGB) gravity has been proposed that asserts to bypass the Lovelock's theorem and to result in a non-trivial contribution to the gravitational dynamics in four-dimensional spacetime. In this work, we study the integrated Sachs-Wolfe (ISW) effect in the 4D EGB model. For this purpose, we calculate the evolution of the gravitational potential and the linear growth factor as a function of redshift for the 4D EGB model and compare it with the corresponding result obtained from the $Λ$-cold dark matter ($Λ$CDM) model. We also calculate the ISW-auto power spectrum and the ISW-cross power spectrum as functions of cosmic microwave background (CMB) multipoles for the 4D EGB model and compare those with the one obtained from the $Λ$CDM model. To do this, we use the strongest constraint on the coupling parameter proposed for the 4D EGB model. Additionally, to calculate the ISW effect for the 4D EGB model, we employ three large-scale structure surveys from different wavelengths. The results exhibit that the ISW effect in the 4D EGB model is higher than the one obtained from the $Λ$CDM model. Hence, we show that the 4D EGB model can amplify the amplitude of the ISW power spectrum, which can be considered as a relative advantage of the 4D EGB model comparing the $Λ$CDM one. Also, we indicate that the deviation from the $Λ$CDM model is directly proportional to the value of the dimensionless coupling parameter $β$.

description: In this article, we consider our collaborative efforts supporting teacher candidates ina mainstream Bachelor of Education program at a research-intensive Canadian uni­versity, to engage with Indigenous knowledges, pedagogies, and perspectives in theiremerging classroom practice through a mandated course. In our course planning, werelied on the theoretical ideas of Indigenous scholars Dwayne Donald and George J.Sefa Dei to frame the complications of engaging Indigenous knowledges in Westernacademic and societal contexts that are immersed in ongoing colonial relations andknowledge practices. In this article, we rely on Jo-ann Archibald's Indigenous story-work methodology to further develop theoretical understandings of the questions thatemerged in the experience of engaging these ideas with our students. We see thismethodology as thoroughly intertwined with our theoretical commitments in this piece.From our emerging understandings and questions, we look to the writings ofNuu-chah-nulth hereditary chief and scholar Richard Atleo to help us understand our ex­perience of resistance with Raven and her friends in the classroom. Considering theexperience of resistance as being out of balance and harmony, we recognize the restora­tive potential ofAtleo's principles of consent, recognition, and continuity as part of aresponsive pedagogy. We also are guided by Atleo's specific ways to understand boththe students and our own resistance as needing to transition through phases. In thisarticle and our work in the course, we centre Indigenous theories and theorists fromour part of the world as a decolonial practice related to geo-political concerns in knowl­edge-making practices.

SSCS Webinar Slides
ABSTRACT- The design space of analog-to-digital converters (ADC) can be classified by two orthogonal axes – one representing the different ADC architectures such as SAR, pipeline, and ??; the other mapping the underlying circuits as discrete-time and continuous-time configurations.  For ?? ADCs, both discrete- and continuous-time design topologies have been explored extensively. With continuous-time implementations excelling in power efficiency and bandwidth, continuous-time ?? ADCs have been widely used in a variety of applications including wireless communication systems. One then might ask – if continuous-time ?? ADCs offer multiple key benefits over discrete-time counterparts, does the same rationale apply to other ADC architectures such as pipelined ADCs? This webinar attempts to answer this question. We first present how a continuous-time pipelined ADC can be derived from a discrete-time equivalent. We then cover the pros and cons of the continuous-time pipelined ADC against discrete-time pipelined and continuous-time ?? ADCs.  We also present the implementation examples in 28nm and 16nm CMOS technologies. We will conclude the talk with a discussion of future research directions.

description: We argue that long optical storage times are required to establish entanglement at high rates over large distances using memory-based quantum repeaters. Triggered by this conclusion, we investigate the $^3$H$_6$ $\leftrightarrow$ $^3$H$_4$ transition at 795.325 nm of Tm:Y$_3$Ga$_5$O$_{12}$ (Tm:YGG). Most importantly, we show that the optical coherence time can reach 1.1 ms, and, using laser pulses, we demonstrate optical storage based on the atomic frequency comb protocol up to 100 $μ$s as well as a memory decay time T$_M$ of 13.1 $μ$s. Possibilities of how to narrow the gap between the measured value of T$_m$ and its maximum of 275 $μ$s are discussed. In addition, we demonstrate quantum state storage using members of non-classical photon pairs. Our results show the potential of Tm:YGG for creating quantum memories with long optical storage times, and open the path to building extended quantum networks.

We show that the signal events can be distinguished from the standard-model backgrounds, and that information about mass and mixing parameters of the top partners can be measured with relatively good accuracies. With the measurements of these parameters, we show that a non-trivial test of the LHT can be performed. We also discuss a possibility to reconstruct the thermal relic density of the lightest T-odd particle A_H using the LHC results, and show that the scenario where A_H becomes dark matter may be checked.

As a sessional instructor, I am guided by specific principles that serve to sustainmy Indigeneity within mainstream classrooms, namely mobilizing Indigenous knowl­edges, living and working from an Indigenist/Ucwalmicw centre, and trusting againin our Ucwalmicw ways. From these standpoints, I make explicit the significance ofbeginning and proceeding in a good way towards not only the education of First Peo­ples but also towards building respectful relationships between First Peoples and set­tlers in Canada. I present herein the importance of and purposes behind engaging withprotocols and preparatory processes when coming together to seek and share knowledge.I provide examples of Indigenous pedagogies that facilitate the creation of safe envi­ronments in which to discuss the often difficult topic of First Peoples' and settlers'shared histories. I have observed how, for teacher candidates and most other students,coming to know First Peoples is best facilitated through engaging with Indigenousways of coming to know, because they centre on building and sustaining respectfuland harmonious relationships.

A Stochastic Two-Stage Model for the Integrated Scheduling of the Electric and Natural Gas Systems

Publisher: name: IEEE

In this paper a new model for the fully integrated stochastic day-ahead scheduling of electric and gas systems is presented, coping with the uncertainties of both systems.
The inherent coupling of the electric and natural gas systems due to the operation of gas generating units and power-to-gas facilities, along with the uncertainties faced in both systems due to the variability in electricity and gas demand and the vastly increasing volatile renewable injections, create an imperative need to schedule and operate the two systems in a coordinated manner. In this paper a new model for the fully integrated stochastic day-ahead scheduling of electric and gas systems is presented, coping with the uncertainties of both systems. The stochastic parameters comprise the electricity demand and the renewable injections, which collectively create several net electricity load scenarios, and the gas residential/industrial demand. The integrated scheduling problem concerns a unit commitment for the electricity problem, amended with additional constraints imposed by the underlying natural gas transmission system considering steady-state flow. A two-stage stochastic programming model is devised, having as second stage the possible realizations of net electricity load and gas demand in real-time. The model is tested in medium-size real-world test systems  the Greek electricity and gas systems  deriving useful insights on the advantages of the integrated stochastic scheduling versus the deterministic scheduling of the electricity and gas systems.

description: As institutions pick through “the debris of an image culture” and revive historical exhibitions for contemporary audiences, lost, forgotten and overlooked artefacts become conspicuous in their absence. Common to restaged exhibitions is their status as ultimately incomplete projects with gaps left by missing works. This was the case when the National Gallery of Victoria mounted The Field Revisited in 2018. In the fifty years since The Field inaugurated the Gallery’s Roy Grounds-designed building in 1968, several works had been lost or destroyed. Some paintings and sculptures were remade for the 2018 exhibition, a process the author participated in when one of the original artists died before the work was completed. Other missing works were represented by black and white reproductions of archival images. The exhibition’s temporal displacement also invited renewed scrutiny of its lack of diversity, highlighted by the underrepresentation of women, of whom there were only three out of the 40 participating artists, and the absence of indigenous artists. The recent trend of re-enacting exhibitions from the past includes Fondazione Prada’s 2013 reinstallation of Harald Szeemann’s influential exhibition When Attitudes Become Form (1969), and Tate Modern’s 2014 partial reconstruction of The Last Exhibition of Futurist Painting 0.10 (1915). This paper examines the curatorial compulsion to retrieve cultural artefacts from history. The challenges posed for institutional frameworks when salvaging the past from obscurity or dark oblivion are demonstrated by The Field Revisited. The author’s role as a “posthumous studio assistant” will inform the consideration of strategies to address these challenges.

This paper presents an overview of the hardware testbed and several scenarios that have been run to determine control and actions needed for the future power grid.
Novel power system control and new utility devices need to be tested before their actual deployment to the power grid. To assist with such a testing need, real-time digital emulators such as RTDS and Opal-RT can be used to connect to the physical world and form a hardware in the loop (HIL) emulation. However, due to the limitations of today's computational resources, the accuracy and fidelity suffer from different levels of model reductions in purely digital simulations. CURENT has developed a reconfigurable electric grid hardware testbed (HTB) to overcome the limitations of digital emulators. The HTB has been used to develop measurement, control, modeling, and actuation techniques for a national grid with a high penetration of renewables. The power electronic-based system includes emulators for synchronous generators; photovoltaics with grid-interfacing inverter; wind turbines; induction motor loads, ZIP loads, power electronic loads; batteries; ac and dc transmission lines; short circuit faults and grid relay protection; and a multiterminal HVDC overlay including power electronics interfaces. The system contains real elements of power flow, measurement, communication, protection, and control that mimic what would be seen in an actual electric grid. This paper presents an overview of the HTB and several scenarios that have been run to determine control and actions needed for the future power grid.
Der Zusammenhang von Psychopathie, Kindheitstrauma und dem Aggressivitäts- und Impulsivitätsniveau bei Männern mit und ohne Hafterfahrung

description: The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of childhood trauma on aggression and high rates of psychopathy in men. The premise was that one or more traumatic events in childhood would increase the level of aggression of former detainees in comparison to community people. In order to receive data an online survey was designed and men were recruited in collaboration with the probationary service as well as on online platforms. Regression analysis revealed that there was no significant impact of childhood trauma on the aggression potential of psychopathic men (R² = .056, F(1,15) = .887, p = .361). Unexpectedly findings suggested that there was no significant correlation for psychopathy and aggression (rab,c(64) = .05, p = .34), but for impulsivity (rab,c(64) = .43, p = .00). Future researches should replicate these findings with bigger sample sizes and should examine the interaction of psychopathy, childhood trauma, aggression and impulsivity.
description: Das Ziel der vorliegenden Untersuchung war es, den Einfluss eines Kindheitstraumas auf die Aggressivität und Psychopathie bei männlichen Personen zu untersuchen. Die Prämisse war dabei, dass ein oder mehrere Kindheitstraumata einen Einfluss auf die Höhe der Aggressivität bei Männern mit Haftvergangenheit verglichen mit Männern der Normalbevölkerung haben werden. Um Daten zu erlangen, wurde ein Online-Fragebogen generiert und Männer unter Zusammenarbeit mit der Bewährungshilfe sowie über Online-Portale rekrutiert. Eine Regressionsanalyse zeigte keinen signifikanten Einfluss von Kindheitstraumata auf das Aggressionspotenzial von psychopathischen Männern (R² = .056, F(1,15) = .887, p = .361). Überraschenderweise zeigten die Ergebnisse, dass zwischen Psychopathie und Aggressivität kein signifikanter Zusammenhang besteht (rab,c(64) = .05, p = .34), dies jedoch für die Impulsivität der Fall war (rab,c(64) = .43, p = .00). Zukünftige Untersuchungen sollten die hier gefundenen Ergebnisse anhand größerer Stichproben replizieren und die Interaktion von Psychopathie, Kindheitstrauma, Aggressivität und Impulsivität näher untersuchen.

This paper introduces a methodology for building synthetic electric grid data sets that represent fictitious, yet realistic, combined transmission and distribution systems.
This paper introduces a methodology for building synthetic electric grid data sets that represent fictitious, yet realistic, combined transmission and distribution (T&D) systems. Such data sets have important applications, such as in the study of the wide-area interactions of distributed energy resources, in the validation of advanced control schemes, and in network resilience to severe events. The data sets created here are geographically located on an actual North American footprint, with the end-user load information estimated from land parcel data. The grid created to serve these fictional but realistic loads is built starting with low-voltage and medium-voltage distribution systems in full detail, connected to distribution and transmission substations. Bulk generation is added, and a high-voltage transmission grid is created. This paper explains the overall process and challenges addressed in making the combined case. An example test case, syn-austin-TDgrid-v03, is shown for a 307 236-customer case located in central Texas, with 140 substations, 448 feeders, and electric line data at voltages ranging from 120 V to 230 kV. Such new combined test cases help to promote high quality in the research on large-scale systems, particularly since much actual power system data are subject to data confidentiality. The highly detailed, combined T&D data set can also facilitate the modeling and analysis of coupled infrastructures.

description: As institutions pick through “the debris of an image culture” and revive historical exhibitions for contemporary audiences, lost, forgotten and overlooked artefacts become conspicuous in their absence. Common to restaged exhibitions is their status as ultimately incomplete projects with gaps left by missing works. This was the case when the National Gallery of Victoria mounted The Field Revisited in 2018. In the fifty years since The Field inaugurated the Gallery’s Roy Grounds-designed building in 1968, several works had been lost or destroyed. Some paintings and sculptures were remade for the 2018 exhibition, a process the author participated in when one of the original artists died before the work was completed. Other missing works were represented by black and white reproductions of archival images. The exhibition’s temporal displacement also invited renewed scrutiny of its lack of diversity, highlighted by the underrepresentation of women, of whom there were only three out of the 40 participating artists, and the absence of indigenous artists.

This paper presents a novel approach toward intrusion prevention, using a multi-agent system, at the distribution system level.
Integration of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) into the distribution system makes today's power grid more remotely monitored and controlled than it has been. The fast increasing connectivity, however, also implies that the distribution grid today, or smart grid, is more vulnerable. Thus, research into intrusion/anomaly detection systems at the distribution level is in critical need. Current research on Intrusion Detection Systems for the power grid has been focused primarily on cyber security at the Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition, and single node levels with little attention on coordinated cyberattacks at multiple nodes. A holistic approach toward system-wide cyber security for distribution systems is yet to be developed. This paper presents a novel approach toward intrusion prevention, using a multi-agent system, at the distribution system level. Simulations of the method have been performed on the IEEE 13-Node Test Feeder, and the results compared to those obtained from existing methods. The results have validated the performance of the proposed method for protection against cyber intrusions at the distribution system level.

description: This paper describes the development of the Native Indian Teacher Education (NITEP)in the Faculty of Education at the University of British Columbia (UBC). It beginsand ends with a description of the September 16,1974 meeting at which the students,staff, and Advisory Committee gathered for the first time. The remainder of the paperdescribes the building of NITEP between 1969 and 1974. It begins with a descriptionof the context of the 1960s and 1970s, including descriptions of First Nations organ­izations, federal government involvement, and political trends throughout the period.This is followed by an explanation of the formation of the British Columbia Native In­dian Teachers Association (BCNITA), involvement of its members in the developmentof the NITEP concept, the members of the core group who spearheaded the program'sdevelopment, and the approval process, including the support and opposition withinUBC. The final NITEP proposal is summarized. Rationale, guidelines, admission, pro­gram content, differences from other faculty of education programs, location of NITEPcentres, administration, and government are also explained. The article includes theprocess of putting the program into operation during 1974, including some specialconcerns, and concludes with a forward look at the work that lay ahead, once theprogram had been established. The paper concludes with the observation that NITEPis having an impact far beyond anything the founders had dreamed about in 1974and offers congratulations to those whose have continued to build NITEP over the past40 years.
