The relational person within a practical theology of health care
Creators: name: McArdle, Patrick
Publisher: name: Australian Catholic University
Year: 2006

description: Aim: The aim of this thesis is to elaborate a theological understanding of health care at its most vulnerable point: the meaning and exercise of personhood itself. Personhood, as I develop the concept, is understood in relational terms. Through this exploration of the relational dimensions of the human person, I provide a conceptual framework in which health care is able to derive fresh vigour and inspiration. This approach accomplishes two things: it establishes a role for theological insights in the public discourse of health care; secondly, it demonstrates that theology is able to assist health care to better understand itself and renew itself. As an exercise in Practical Theology, the investigation is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing on insights from philosophy, health care and various dimensions of theology.
Management of curriculum change: An analysis of religious education coordinator's perspectives on the management of a particular curriculum change in Catholic secondary schools in the Archdiocese of Melbourne
Creators: name: Buchanan, Michael
Publisher: name: Australian Catholic University
Year: 2007

description: This thesis aimed to study the perspectives of religious education coordinators' in secondary schools in the Archdiocese of Melbourne regarding their management of a particular curriculum change in religious education. The change in question involved a 'top down' (Morris, 1995) change to a 'text-based curriculum' (Pell, 2001) directed by the Archbishop of Melbourne, who is responsible for religious education in Catholic schools throughout the Archdiocese. Situated within a qualitative paradigm this research utilised grounded theory as a means to identify and analyse the theory generated from interviews with religious education coordinators who were responsible for managing the change. The emergent categories were used to generate new theory in relation to how religious education coordinators managed the curriculum change. Key theories generated from this study included factors that impeded the change such as an inability to understand the theoretical position underpinning the curriculum innovation, and inadequate qualifications to teach religious education. It also generated theory about factors that assisted the management of this change such as time to reflect on practice, and support from school leadership teams. The theory generated was analysed against the existing knowledge about curriculum change in education, textbook use and leadership in religious education. A distinguishing aspect of this research is that it linked the general literature on educational change as it applies to curriculum change, with curriculum change in religious education.The study also proposed some recommendations for future directions and practices concerning the management of curriculum change in religious education in Catholic schools.
Teacher learning matters: The interrelationship between the personal and professional lives of rural teachers
Creators: name: Weadon, Helen
Publisher: name: Australian Catholic University
Year: 2007

description: The aim of this thesis is to highlight the growing understanding that schools and all its members are continually learning. This has provided a new lens for educationists to view the professional and personal needs of teachers. Goodson (1996) refers to the fact that researchers have often omitted the 'lived voice' of the teacher in educational research. By this he means that the life stories and experiences of teachers, told by themselves, are ruled out as irrelevant data by many researchers. The early work of Hall and Morgan (as cited in Queensland Consortium for Professional Development in Education (1996)., and later Dreyfus and Dreyfus (1996) who based their work on the stages of nurse development, but adapted to assist with understanding the professional and personal lives of teachers, formed the initial interest in exploring the under researched area of teachers' lives. This qualitative research study explores the interrelationship between the personal and professional lives of teachers especially those in mid to late careers in rural areas. Participants in this study completed a written survey and then oral contributions through focus groups or interviews. A model which illustrated the critical influences on teachers' professional learning in their school was developed as a result of the analyses of the teacher data. This model highlighted the need for the provision of professional learning opportunities that incorporate the four major themes which emerged from this study. It also showed the need to maintain a learning culture in a school that is inclusive of all teachers regardless of their life or career stage. Reactions to this model were then obtained from the school principals, and from professionals working in the education system office. These reactions showed distinct variations to those of teachers. The teachers clearly had the view that teacher learning does matter to the life of a learning community.;The challenge for rural schools is to provide teachers with professional learning opportunities that incorporate adult learning principles and empower teachers to take control of their own professional and personal learning.
The emergence of a dominant discourse associated with school programs: A study of CLaSS
Creators: name: Rafferty, John
Publisher: name: Australian Catholic University
Year: 2007

description: This thesis takes the position that once schools and school systems adopt reform programs,the values and meanings inherent in those programs create and perpetuate powerful forms of discourse that characterize the projects themselves, evoke loyalty and commitment and may ultimately serve to stifle other voices. The thesis examines several primary schools involved with the Children's Literacy Success Strategy (CLaSS) in the Victorian Catholic Education system. It is an analysis of the dominant discourse created and perpetuated by the CLaSS documentation, education officers, principals, and classroom teachers. The study characterizes the nature of that discourse and explores its effects on the work of teachers, principals, and on school improvement. The analysis proposed in no way disparages CLaSS itself, nor does it seek to judge its objectives, or offer a critique of the specific methods used to improve literacy. Rather, it advocates that genuine school improvement requires one to step outside the circle of discourse engendered by reform programs such as CLaSS which promote a 'single minded' discourse about themselves and that which the school is attempting. When programs such as CLaSS are introduced into schools as part of a sector wide reform agenda they are expected to provide proof of improved results in order to justify the financial investment associated with the initiative. The values and beliefs of the reform initiative are expected to be accepted by school systems usually without question (Apple, 2000). The effects of such unquestioned acceptance of particular values are examined in the current study. As schools are expected to accept programs like CLaSS in their entirety, it is not possible within the rhetoric of CLaSS to select what elements of the program to adopt. This appears to lead to the creation and perpetuation of an 'officially' sanctioned way of thinking about school reform and teaching.;Proponents of reform programs may argue that such sanctions are a necessary feature of whole school reform programs and provide a focus for energy and activism, for winning people's support, and for conveying to parents and the wider school community a sense of purposeful action and rational planning. However, these dominant discourses seem to obscure other perspectives, disallowing critique and preventing reflective discourse and analysis. Indeed, this study holds that genuine school reform requires schools to break out of the imprisonment of dominant discourses and remain open to critical reflection.

The phenomenon of problematic school-related absenteeism
Creators: name: Rennie, Robert
Publisher: name: Australian Catholic University
Year: 2007

description: This research was concerned with the phenomenon of problematic school-related absenteeism (PSRA) within the Victorian secondary school system with particular reference to middle schooling. The study investigated categories of PSRA, identified major risk factors associated with PSRA, and outlined outcomes relevant to selected school-based strategies employed in the management and minimisation of PSRA. A review of literature was undertaken that identified a number of major categories and risk factors that were associated with PSRA. Subsequently, a conceptual framework was developed. It was the conceptual framework underpinned by the research questions that guided the research design and the collection and analysis of data. Five research questions underpinned this research. The primary research question was: ""In relation to problematic school-related absenteeism, are there any emergent trends or patterns highlighted in the analysis of data concerning class of school classification, namely, Catholic Boys, Catholic Co-educational, Catholic Girls, Government, and Independent within the Victorian secondary school system."" The study was developed with reference to a number of social and contextual issues and factors that related to middle school students under investigation. The first stage of the study involved the collection of data through the Student Questionnaire: School-Related Absenteeism, Student-Questionnaire: Middle School Transition, and School Questionnaire: Parental Condoned Absenteeism from which an empirical database was constructed. Data received from students and schools were analysed and emergent patterns or trends associated with PSRA were established. The second stage involved twelve case study profiles in which Year 9 students' perceptions in relation to school life were investigated. The case study profiles provided a greater insight into key risk factors associated with PSRA.;The case study profiles not only provided greater insight and depth into risk factors associated with PSRA, but also highlighted student-related issues such as educational outcomes, future aspirations, and the meaning of citizenship. Finally, the thesis presented a number of curriculum and policy recommendations to all key stakeholders including schools directly involved with the research and policy makers such as the Department of Education and Training and the Catholic Education Office.
The response of elderly female fast gait to whole body vibration
Creators: name: Lorenzen, Hans
Publisher: name: Australian Catholic University
Year: 2007

description: Background: Older adults walk more slowly than healthy young adults at fast and normal walking speeds. These age-associated changes in mobility impact upon daily function. A slower gait, for example, may reduce the older adult's ability to safely cross at traffic intersections due to the time restriction. Recent research has demonstrated whole body vibration (WBV) can improve the strength and power (Roelants, Delecluse & Verschueren, 2004; Russo et al., 2003; Verschueren, Roelants, Delecluse, Swinnen, Vanderschueren & Boonen, 2004) of community dwelling elderly females, and the mobility of nursing home residents (Bautmans, Van Hees, Lemper & Mets, 2005; Bruyere et al., 2005). To date, no published research has examined the impact WBV has on the gait parameters of community dwelling elderly females. The research was conducted in three phases.

description: The agricultural sector offers employment for a large share of the global population, yet there are various employment challenges, including precarious working conditions and labor market frictions, contributing to labor shortages in some—and unemployment in other—regions. It remains unclear which policy tools are best suited to address these challenges as the extant evidence is scattered, limited, and lacks a comprehensive overview of policy options. Here, we fill this gap by offering the first literature review on this topic, unraveling the complexity of employment challenges, providing an overview of policy tools, and proposing a policy and research agenda. Our overview shows that a bundle of coherent, national and international policies is needed to address the interconnected and global nature of employment challenges in agriculture. Many such tools are available but few of them have been rigorously evaluated, often because suitable data are lacking. Our contribution is timely, given the surge in public interest in social sustainability, the proliferation of policies for decent work in agriculture, and limited research guiding these efforts.

Funnel Beaker Period
Subsistence
Social Organisation
Monuments

description: Since 2009, a Priority Program of the German Research Foundation (DFG) deals with the Funnel Beaker Period in Northern Germany, focussing, in a holistic approach, on the conjunction of social structures and the erection of monuments. To this end, evidence for subsistence patterns, social organisation, communication and networks are considered in a diachronic perspective. Spatial structures and chronologies are re-evaluated and adjusted in the light of new excavation results, scientific data and statistical analysis, environmental and economic data are presented and discussed. Several new fieldwork projects are introduced, and their results are combined into the frame of an overall picture of Funnel Beaker societies which are to be described as a complex mosaic of regionally diverse patterns, different sequences of temporal change and distinct spheres of social interaction. Finally, a discussion of the role of monuments in social reproduction together with considerations towards demographic trends leads to a model of social change reaching from cooperative actions to collective dictions of individual social roles and a rise of social inequalities.

Vegetation changes in a large estuarine wetland subsequent to construction of floodgates: Hexham Swamp in the Lower Hunter Valley, New South Wales
Creators: name: Winning, Geoffrey
Publisher: name: Australian Catholic University
Year: 2006

description: Floodgates were constructed in 1971 on the main creek draining Hexham Swamp, a large wetland on the floodplain of the lower Hunter River, New South Wales. Substantial changes in vegetation have occurred in Hexham Swamp subsequent to the construction of the floodgates. Previous areas of mangroves and saltmarsh have been reduced (180ha to 11ha, and 681ha to 58ha, respectively), and Phragmites australis has expanded (170ha to 1005ha). Much of the mangrove loss (ca. 130ha) was a result of clearing, and the remainder has gradually died off. The factors contributing to the dieback are likely to be a combination of drying of the soil, root competition and, at times, waterlogging. Field sampling as well as microcosm and reciprocal transplant experiments involving key species, Sarcocornia quinqueflora, Sporobolus virginicus, Paspalum vaginatum and Phragmites australis, suggest that a reduction in soil salinity has been an important factor in initiating successional change from saltmarsh to Phragmites reedswamp. The data also suggest that increased waterlogging has been an important factor in initiating vegetation change. This apparently paradoxical result (floodgates and associated drainage generally result in drying of wetlands) is likely to have resulted from occlusion of drainage lines (by sediment and reeds) and is, therefore, likely to be a condition that developed gradually. That is, the initial effect of the floodgates is expected to have been a drying of the swamp, followed over time by an increasing wetness. An examination of vegetation changes after removal of cattle from part of Hexham Swamp, suggests that grazing had little effect on species composition of vegetation or rate of expansion of Phragmites australis. However, grazing does affect vegetation structure (height and density), possibly favours some coloniser species (e.g.;Sarcocornia quinqueflora) in particular environmental conditions, and possibly inhibits establishment of Phragmites australis.

description: Humans and other animals are both susceptible to avian influenza virus. The avian influenza (AI) pandemic could be brought on by the appearance of a new, radical AI virus capable of spreading disease and maintaining prolonged human-to-human transmissions. The possibility of an AI pandemic makes it important for public health. Despite efforts to identify a linkage between them, the hierarchical relationship between all the factors that influence the pathophysiology of this disease, the shared biological pathways, and the exact identities of its important triggers are yet unknown. To find shared gene expression profiles and overlapping biological processes, an integrated gene expression meta-analysis was carried out for three independent microarray data of the avian influenza virus. This study found 1284 common differentially expressed genes (DEGs), of which 73 were overexpressed and 119 were under-expressed, analyzed using various packages in the R tool. The extensive biological, functional enrichment and pathway analysis was performed using the EnrichR tool and identified the defence response to the symbiont (GO:0140546), Interferon Alpha/Beta Signaling (R-HSA-909733), and spliceosome as the most enriched terms of biological process and pathways respectively. In a network meta-analysis, ISG15 and RELA were pinpointed as the top hub genes for over and under-expression, respectively. This meta-analysis technique for avian influenza infection highlights important gene profiles and their linked pathways. These findings highlight the value of using meta-analysis to detect novel gene markers that may offer key insight into disease pathogenesis and perhaps pave the way for creating more effective therapeutic approaches.

An investigation into students' perceptions of multicultural classroom environments in Queensland Catholic secondary schools
Creators: name: Carroll, Michael
Publisher: name: Australian Catholic University
Year: 2006

description: Australia continues to become culturally diverse. This diversity is being witnessed in Catholic schools. This thesis reports research which employed quantitative data collection methods in investigating students' perceptions of their multicultural classroom environment. By drawing on Catholic school literature, multicultural literature, previous learning environment research and the perceptions of stakeholders, an instrument, known as the Multicultural Classroom Environment Instrument (MCEI), was developed to assess psychosocial dimensions of classroom environments in Queensland Catholic secondary schools. These dimensions were: Collaboration, Competition, Teacher Authority, Teacher Support, Congruence, Deference, Teacher Directedness and Gender Equity. The use of the instrument with a sample of 1,460 students in 24 Catholic secondary schools in Queensland revealed some statistically significant differences in students' perceptions of their classroom environment. Differences were revealed according to the country of birth of the student and those of the parents. Investigations examining school type, subject, year level and gender were also undertaken. Single-sex schools were shown to be more concerned with Teacher Authority and Competition compared to coeducational schools. Religion and Study of Religion classes were perceived as very similar, irrespective of school type. There were differences in students' perception of the classroom environment across different year levels, with year 8 students' perceptions significantly different to that of years 10 and 12 students. Girls generally perceived their classroom environment more positively than boys, with greater Collaboration, Teacher Support and Gender Equity and less Competition and Teacher Authority. The results of this thesis suggest that differences in students' perceptions of multicultural classroom environments in Queensland Catholic secondary schools do exist.;It also suggests that in order to continue to provide quality education, Catholic schools must acknowledge these differences. They must also ensure that curriculum initiatives, staff professional development and training, and other educational and pastoral initiatives are designed to incorporate the differences identified in this thesis. Further investigation into a variety of multicultural classroom environments is recommended.
Effects of whole body vibration on neuromuscular performance of community dwelling older adults
Creators: name: Furness, Trentham
Publisher: name: Australian Catholic University

description: Whole body vibration (WBV) is a mode of exercise by which an individual stands on a vibration platform that may be oscillating and therefore creating vertical displacement which affects gravitational forces acting upon the whole body. Manipulations of platform amplitude or frequency can affect the rate of change of the WBV (i.e. acceleration) acting upon an individual. The specific influences of frequency or amplitude, however, are unknown. The aim of the study, therefore, was two fold; (1) to identify chronic WBV effects of neuromuscular performance within a community dwelling older adult sample, and; (2) to identify WBV methods that would elicit chronic neuromuscular performance changes within such a sample. The study incorporated a randomised controlled experimental design to examine the aim. Seventy-three community dwelling older adults freely consented to the requirements of the study (mean age = 72.0 years). Neuromuscular performance was quantified with the 5-Chair Stands test, the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test and the Tinetti test. Health Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) was qualified with the SF-36 Health Survey. A six week WBV intervention significantly changed the quantifiers of neuromuscular performance in a community dwelling older adult sample. The WBV intervention significantly reduced time taken to complete the 5-Chair Stands test (p .05) found within the control group of community dwelling older adults for the Tinetti test. Detraining effects were observed three weeks after the cessation of the six week WBV intervention for the three WBV sessions per week group. Neuromuscular performance reduced after the detraining period. Vibration platform dynamics (manipulated frequency and controlled amplitude) showed that gravitational forces created by the WBV were safe since no injuries were associated with the intervention and since participant compliance was 100% during the six week WBV intervention. The methods of this study showed a chronic WBV intervention to be a safe and easily administered exercise to improve neuromuscular performance and HRQOL of a community dwelling older adult sample. Specifically, WBV could be used as a safe and effective tool to improve aspects of normal daily function such as body balance and gait speed.
Are graduate nurses satisfied with graduate nurse programs?
Creators: name: Reeves, Julie
Publisher: name: Australian Catholic University

description: The transition from student nurse to Registered Nurse Grade 1 is a difficult journey for many graduates. New graduates experience issues related to reality shock, socialisation, confidence and the theory practice gap. It is well recognised that graduates require extensive support and development throughout this very difficult time. In Victoria graduate nurse programs are a recognised vessel to deliver this support. Quality graduate programs which meet the satisfaction of graduate nurses are required to provide effective support. The implications of minimal support are enormous and can lead to graduates leaving the profession. There is much in the literature suggesting the importance of each of the varied components of graduate programs however there is minimal comparisons made between various programs. As a result it was difficult to measure the qualities of programs. The purpose of this study was to explore and compare various graduate nurse programs and identify whether the programs were satisfying the needs of graduate nurses. An exploratory descriptive design was utilised and a written questionnaire was employed to gain data. The findings of this research indicated that the delivery of graduate nurse programs within this study were not consistent in content and quality. Overall graduates were satisfied with their graduate nurse program although they identified there were areas which required improvement. This project has suggested that the analysis of graduate nurse satisfaction is vital in identifying quality programs that retain graduates. It is essential that ongoing evaluation of programs are completed by graduate nurses to ensure they are satisfying their needs and thus retaining them within the nursing profession.

description: Nowadays, every manufacturing plant applies technologies, methods and procedures to ensure more efficient and cheaper production. In the manufacturing plant, one way to ensure more efficient and cheaper production is to apply the progressive technology – high feed machining. This article is focused on a description of basic principles of high feed milling and its subsequent application in the practice during the machining of aluminium alloy. This progressive method is considered from the point of view of time efficiency of the manufacturing process. Then a comparison with the time efficiency of the manufacturing process is realised by using conventional milling.

Creators: name: Chen, Shu-Fen
Publisher: name: Australian Catholic University
Year: 2005

description: The purpose of this research is to investigate whether the implementation of Cooperative Learning (CL) activities, incorporating the insights given by Howard Gardner' (1993) theory of Multiple Intelligences (MI) and the notion of Whole Language Approach (WLA) in college EFL classrooms will have a positive effect on students' language proficiency and attitude. A quasi-experimental study was developed. The site of this study was in an EFL classroom in a Taiwanese College. The subjects were from the researcher's three English classes at Chung Hwa Institute of Medical Technology during one semester. Many learning activities based on Gardner's theory of Multiple Intelligences were used while a Cooperative Learning approach was practiced.
