description: Every individual has a fundamental right to communicate and access equal opportunities to fully participate in society. However, this right may not be fully manifested for individuals with communication access needs especially those from underrepresented groups. This project had two aims, to determine 1) the specific experiences, challenges, and aspirations related to the cultural identities of people of color (POC) who use augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) and 2) how AAC service providers and manufacturers can support POC AAC users in a culturally and linguistically responsive manner. We conducted an online, asynchronous focus group with seven participants over eight weeks. The participants’ responses were coded qualitatively. Seven major themes were identified: AAC is a Culture, AAC System Features, Self-Identity as a Person of Color who uses AAC, Experience with Service Providers, Improvements to the Field of AAC, Racial Inequities in AAC Support, and Future Research. Suggestions are provided regarding how service providers and manufacturers can serve as better allies to support POC who use AAC.
Davidic References in the Book of Mormon as Evidence Against its Historicity

description: This thesis critiques contemporary Latter-day Saint scholarly efforts to validate the historicity of the Book of Mormon through textual criticism by presupposing its historic authenticity, then combing the text for evidence of literary elements that may suggest ancient Hebrew authorship. Chapter 2 surveys current Latter-day Saint scholarship and arguments for internal evidence in support of the historicity of the Book of Mormon. Chapter 3 assesses the importance of King David's influence over the biblical and non-biblical Hebrew cultural and religious identity to determine the likelihood and anticipated portrayal of the king's appearance in the Book of Mormon. Given the Book of Mormon's scant and peculiar nature of references to the fabled king, this chapter also argues that a competing testimony against the book's historicity is produced. Chapter 4 offers concluding remarks.

description: Key Word Sign (KWS) is an unaided form of augmentative and alternative communication where manual signing is used for people with complex communication needs. Communication partners require training; however geographical, familial and personal barriers impact accessing KWS training. Online training has become more common; however, no research has investigated the online delivery of KWS training. This mixed methods study compared efficacy and acceptability of online training programs delivered synchronously, asynchronously or as a combination of both (hybrid), with results from a previous study that measured face-to-face training.

Writing in the academy: collaborative writing development with students and lecturers at the UWC Writing Centre

Publisher: name: SUN Press

Subjects: subject: Education
subject: Education, Higher

description: Writing and reading critically are core academic practices that many South African tertiary students struggle with throughout undergraduate study. This is partly due to a lack of competency in English as a first language, and partly due to a lack of preparation at primary and secondary school level. Critical reading and writing practices need to be developed simultaneously, and contextually. The Writing Centre at the University of the Western Cape (UWC) is currently exploring ways to make itself a more relevant and focused part of the University's teaching and learning interventions and strategies, and to make it more responsive to the multiple reading, writing and language needs of students. Influenced theoretically and practically by New Literacy Studies and Writing Across the Curriculum (WAC) approaches, the Writing Centre is working to position itself as part of a teaching and learning environment that develops and supports both student writers and disciplinary lecturers. We aim to do this by foregrounding, theorising, researching and building a culture of writing intensive teaching that imagines and uses writing as a tool for learning, thinking and evaluation, as well as for assessment. In order to become a significant part of teaching and learning in higher education more generally, Writing Centres will need to work increasingly with lecturers to address the writing and reading needs of students in a supportive, critical and collaborative space that better serves the needs of both parties.

Seeing yourself in a new light: Crossing the threshold to "researcher"

Publisher: name: SUN Press

Subjects: subject: Education
subject: Education, Higher

description: Writing, and the thinking, reading and analytical process that writers engage with to make writing possible, is transformative, and doctoral students in the social sciences especially tend to write themselves into their new identities as 'doctors' and recognised researchers. Much has been written in recent years about doctoral writing, including many advice books on how to write a 'big-book' or similar doctoral thesis into being. While some of the journal articles and books are helpful, and provide useful accounts of the complex challenges of writing a doctoral thesis, many of the advice books in particular focus more on the text itself, with the writer oddly under-accounted for. Recent research on, for example, doctoral writing groups and doctoral identity speaks into this gap helpfully, but much of it is written in contexts other than South Africa, and much of it is written for rather than by students going through or having recently completed a PhD process. This chapter contributes to a growing body of research and reflection on the role of writing itself in the process of becoming a 'doctor'. Building on relevant blog posts and critical reflection through a research journal on my own transformative doctoral writing process at a South African university, this chapter will reflect on how challenging yet also potentially thrilling the writing process can be during a PhD. Readers will hopefully find in this chapter useful insights into their own process of becoming a doctor, and ideas for making their own 'writing and becoming' process more engaging and rewarding.

description: Many autistic1 children experience communication challenges. Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) can function as a primary or supportive mode of communication, and interventions incorporating AAC have a positive impact on the communication skills of autistic children. This systematic review investigated intervention studies using speech generating devices to enhance the expressive language of autistic preschoolers. Specifically, research questions addressed the (a) expressive communication skills and functions; (b) instructional strategies; (c) impact of interventions; and (d) ecological validity of the included studies. After an extensive search process, twenty studies from 1998 to 2023 met the inclusion criteria. Study characteristics were extracted, social and ecological validity were evaluated, and results were described using effect sizes and visual analysis. The majority targeted requesting (n=14) and the remaining addressed communication acts across diverse functions (n=6). Eleven of the studies demonstrated moderate to strong effects. Most interventions were multicomponent, including a variety of strategies, with prompting being the most common. Fewer than half of the studies met the full criteria for ecological validity, and only seven measured social validity. Implications for the field are provided including a call to action for researchers to evaluate interventions to support communication across diverse functions.

We designate the duplicate at K as the lectotype because that herbarium was the workplace of Joseph Dalton Hooker, and the specimen includes labels and drawings indicating that it was used by Hooker to prepare the description. The two specimens cited above represent all the material of the original collection that is currently known. A third specimen at K is also labelled R.Gunn 1155 (K00885265). However, it is dated 1844, suggesting that it is from a separate gathering. Gunn is known to have re-used numbers to refer to multiple collections that he believed to represent the same taxon, rather than using a series of unique collecting numbers (Buchanan 1988). We therefore do not consider K00885265 to be an isolectotype.

description: Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) can be used effectively by persons with speech or speech-related disabilities to accomplish a variety of communicative functions. However, the majority of AAC interventions reported in the literature focused on requesting. While it is important to initially teach requesting skills, commenting should not be neglected. As AAC emerges, commenting is essential for social engagement, social closeness and information transfer. The purpose of this systematic review (INPLASY protocol 3160) was to describe and critically appraise the existing research on AAC interventions for commenting. A systematic search and application of inclusion criteria yielded 14 single case design studies that examined the effect of an AAC intervention on commenting of children with communication disabilities. A quality appraisal indicated that the rigor of most studies was acceptable. However, there are areas in which research can be improved, especially around the number of points per phase, blinding of personnel, and clear reporting of procedures. Interventions fell into three types of teaching procedures, including prompt hierarchies, aided modeling and direct prompting. Likewise, three teaching contexts (i.e., book reading, play/toys/preferred activities, intensive teaching) and four types of commenting behaviors (i.e., one-symbol utterances, two-symbol utterances, sentences frames and grammatically correct utterances) were identified. Findings suggest the strongest evidence exists to support the use of least-to-most prompt hierarchies that include aided modeling in the context of book reading. However, there are too few studies to recommend their use with certainty.

Environmental DNA for assessing impact and recovery of aquatic communities in an invaded mountain lake. Lake Reserv Manage. 40:111–131. The eradication of invasive species and associated side effects that influence the reestablishment of biological communities is a major challenge for conservation management of invaded ecosystems. We present a before-and-after-disturbance whole lake manipulation study from a high-elevation mountain lake in which we applied a 2-pronged approach to environmental DNA (eDNA) for assessing (1) impact and recovery of aquatic communities to the chemical eradication of invasive brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) and (2) the success of chemical eradication of the invasive fish. Using 18S and cytochrome oxidase I (COI) eDNA metabarcoding, we contribute to a paucity of literature that has comprehensively addressed nontarget effects of rotenone for invasive fish eradication on aquatic communities. We found that key trophic groups (phytoplankton, fungi, zooplankton, and macroinvertebrates) changed in community composition in response to rotenone applications. Fungi and macroinvertebrates, but not zooplankton and phytoplankton, reverted back toward pre-rotenone communities over the time scale of 2 yr. However, COI failed to detect several key species for food web reestablishment that were detected using physical specimen collection, likely due to low primer efficiency. We also found that quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), using species-specific primers, was effective for detecting brook trout presence/absence, although strong eDNA signals likely produced from carcasses in the ecosystem limited the utility of eDNA immediately following rotenone treatment. We provide specific recommendations for lake managers for the future application of eDNA approaches to monitor invasive fish eradication efforts and nontarget community effects for lake ecosystem restoration.

description: It is well-known that children with expressive communication difficulties have the right to communicate, but they should also have the right to do so in whichever language they choose, with a voice that closely matches their age, gender, and dialect. This study aimed to develop naturalistic synthetic child speech, matching the vocal identity of three children with expressive communication difficulties, using Tacotron 2, for three under-resourced South African languages, namely South African English (SAE), Afrikaans, and isiXhosa. Due to the scarcity of child speech corpora, 2 hours of child speech data per child was collected from three 11- to 12-year-old children. Two adult models were used to “warm start” the child speech synthesis. To determine the naturalness of the synthetic voices, 124 listeners participated in a mean opinion score survey (Likert Score) and optionally gave qualitative feedback. Despite limited training data used in this study, we successfully developed a synthesized child voice of adequate quality in each language. This study highlights that with recent technological advancements, it is possible to develop synthetic child speech that matches the vocal identity of a child with expressive communication difficulties in different under-resourced languages.
When History Repeats: Heritage Regeneration and Emergent Authenticity in the Marche’s Peripheral Areas
Creators: name: Pezzi, Maria Giulia
Publisher: name: Campus di Rimini - Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna
Year: 2017
Subjects: Heritage; Tourism; Authenticity; Local Development; Historical Re-enactments

description: This article looks at the way in which historical re-enactments contribute both to the development of a peculiar tourism experience and to the regeneration of the historical and cultural heritage, adding up value and a certain “sense of place” to areas normally considered “marginal” from a variety of points of view. This will be achieved through the analysis of two events — the historical Palio “Giuoco dell’Oca” in Cagli and the Battle of the Nations in Sentinum (now Sassoferrato) — and specifically of the role that such “staged” events play in the regeneration of cultural heritage as well as of their role in creating collective identities. Moreover, it will be discussed whether such happenings can help develop a kind of cultural tourism based on the fruition of authentic experiences. The data were collected through ethnographic fieldwork conducted in 2016 in the scope of a wider research project on the “National Strategy for Inner Areas in Italy”, a development strategy launched in 2012 by the Italian Minister for Territorial Cohesion at the time, aimed at creating tools likely to foster a series of basic services access improvements in the Italian peripheral areas.

Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi del Piemonte Orientale Amedeo Avogadro
Year: 2019

description: Post-implantation vascular graft failure is mainly caused by in-graft thrombosis and intimal hyperplasia. A fast endothelialisation has the benefit of reducing these adverse events. Grafts enrichment with pro-endothelialisation molecule has been proposed in recent years to improve endothelialisation. One such molecule is pleiotrophin (PIN), a secreted cytokine known for its beneficial effects on blood vessels and endothelial cells (ECS). Affinity delivery systems based on Type I collagen gels have been developed to better control the release of the loaded proteins. In these systems, specific non-covalent interactions are mediated by molecule, such as heparin, due to its ability to sequester, stabilize and protect growth factors and cytokine. The objective of this work is to develop a controlled release system for PTN. The effects of PTN on ECs have been analysed
10:17
and compared to the one exerted by Stromal Derived Factor ! (SDF-1), a known pro endothelialisatiori molecule. Type I collagen gels have been used as a scaffold for the release system. To increase the binding of PTN to the gel and to prolong its release over time, heparin have been added to the standard gel formulation. Structural analysis (mechanical tests and immunofluorescence analysis of the collagen fibers) have been perforined to evaluate the effects on structural and mechanical properties of the gels after the addition of heparin. PTN-specific ELISA
assay has been used to analyse the ability of the heparin-modified collagen gels to bind and released PTN over time in a controlled way. The eftects of the released PTN on the viability and migration of ECs and SMCs has been evaluated and henocompatibility tests have been performed to analyse the effects of the addition of both heparin and PTN on the hemocompatibility properties of the gels. "The modification of Type I collagen gels with PIN and heparin demonstrated a clear added value in. vascular medicine, mainly because the enhanced biological performances.

description: This research paper looks at the language and communication patterns followed in different universities of Pakistan. What the paper aimed to explore and found answers to. Every country happens to have a distinct language culture which is represented by the majority of its population. Although, it is not possible to claim that University students form the largest chunk of Pakistan's population. Nonetheless, it would not be incorrect that these are the members of society who have been fully initiated in to the secondary level of language socialisation. They therefore, rightly depict the present-day association with language. The linguistic dilemma as faced by a country whose constitution declares that Urdu is the National language but, has several regional languages. On top of those indigenous tongues is English which, is propagated by the global need for its acceptance and to great extent by Elite of Pakistan. Hence, in this brewing hotpot of culture and linguistic heritage deciphering which language truly prevails becomes, an eminent question. The researchers have tried to provide insights and solution concerning the observation they have made regarding, the linguistic loophole in a multilingual society.

This study analyses the perception that residents of the city of Vic (a medium-sized city in the interior of the region of Catalonia, Spain) have developed about the Mercat de Música Viva de Vic (MMVV); an international music festival organized annually by public institutions for the past 27 years. From the results of a factor analysis the paper demonstrates how this event is valued for the positive economic impacts generated, but in particular, for other impacts that have favored the social and cultural development of the region, while negative impacts are also recognized.

description: Children on the autism spectrum1 with minimal speech are generally provided with augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) systems that represent vocabulary using picture symbols (i.e., color line drawings). However, there has been minimal research investigating the comparative effectiveness of picture symbols vs. other types of symbol representation (e.g., text) in supporting the communication of children on the autism spectrum. Using a single case adapted alternating treatments experimental design, the current study compared learning of picture symbol and text representations, measured by the accurate identification and functional use of novel AAC symbols by young children on the autism spectrum with minimal speech. Two participants demonstrated notable acquisition of both picture symbols and text. The remaining four children had difficulty demonstrating learning of either symbol representation type. These results suggest that different symbol representations (e.g., digital photographs), layouts (e.g., visual scene displays), and/or instructional procedures (e.g., more naturalistic methods) may have been a better fit for these four participants. Additionally, variability in performance across participants underscores the critical importance of personalization of AAC systems – including symbol representation – based on comprehensive assessment of individual strengths and needs.

Sharing Space in Tourism Places: a Study of Interrelationships in Sarlat (France)
Creators: name: Ouellet, Annie
Publisher: name: Campus di Rimini - Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna
Year: 2017
Subjects: Co-presence; Touristification; Socio-cultural Capital; Indigenous Capital; Sarlat

description: While the relationships between hosts and guests are still frequently thought of in terms of a conflicting opposition between two groups, this article intends to question the co-presence and the sharing of space at work in heritagized and touristified cities. Based on a fieldwork conducted in Sarlat, a city with a very pronouced seasonality in tourism, we argue that the willingness to share the space, even though it is linked to the status of people in relation to the place (tourists / inhabitants), also depends on other factors (socio-economic profiles, attachment to place, territorial anchor, etc.). In this sense, our hypothesis is that the concepts of social and cultural capital, originally developed by the sociologist Pierre Bourdieu, associated to the concept of indigenous capital proposed by Jean-Noël Retière, which reintegrates the spatial dimension at the heart of the concept of capital, can help to refine the understanding of the dynamics and socio-spatial stakes that come into play in touristified cities. We postulate that the input brought by those various types of capitals activates an interesting dialogue between tourism studies and social geography by apprehending the spatial dimension of social reality in a tourism context.

Neither mickling nor muckling" Northern Reflexivity in the Novels of the British "New Wave
Creators: name: Stephenson, John
Publisher: name: unknown
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Area studies
subject: English literature
subject: Culture--Study and teaching
subject: British literature

description: This study proposes that the novels associated with the early 1960s cinematic "British New Wave," though popularly representative of Northern England, have suffered from under-reading with respect to place-specific identity. Contemporary journalistic construction of the "angry young man," and subsequent working class-focused analyses obscured textual expressions of northernness available to readers for whom northern place provides "belonging." Partly as a result of the social change upon which commentators fixated, northern identity was extremely visible in its articulation in the post-war years, and the "New Wave" corpus provides a rich resource for its continuing analysis. Would a specifically "northern" re-examination of the texts by an "insider" reader provide a novel interpretation of the works and their authors, as well as revealing the ways in which this identity is assumed and communicated? Through close reading of texts "of the north," supported by reference to analyses of place and critical approaches to the novels, the study demonstrates the progressive rarefication of a selfconscious, "performed" identity that nevertheless constitutes a genuine expression of attachment to place. Furthermore, the works of the "New Wave" authors Braine, Sillitoe, Waterhouse, Storey, and Barstow negotiate changes in northern landscape and community, their fully "reflexive northernness" interrogating both itself and more "settled" modes of belonging. The "loud" northern voice characterising this literature of the 1950s and 60s resolved the incongruities of post-industrial regional identity to some extent, enabling a partial return to a still conscious, but quieter "just is" northernness.

Literary heritage and place building for communities: the case of Allier, France
Creators: name: Le Bel, Pierre-Mathieu
Publisher: name: Campus di Rimini - Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna
Year: 2017
Subjects: Literature; Tourism; Allier; Heritage; Social Innovation

description: Literature’s geography takes an active part in the construction of a social and political space. In a postmodern context of increasing tourist offer and demand, literary tourism is often seen as a niche; an originality factor and a guaranty of authenticity by local development actors and visitors. The present article, consequently, is interested in this dialectic between places and literary heritage. This paper focuses on a participatory action research on citizen associations that promote literary heritage of the County of Allier, France. We look at how local associations build on literary heritage to produce places and representations of those places are aimed at tourist consumption.

City Walls as Historic Urban Landscape: a Case study on Participatory Education

Subjects: Historic Urban Landscape; UNESCO; Participatory Processes; Heritage Education

description: The concept of Historic Urban Landscape, which now guides the conservation and promotion of numerous heritage sites across the world, is based on the recognition of the complexity of the urban environment, seen as a dynamic system of cultural and natural features. This paper aims at presenting an ongoing reassessment of the meaning of a historic artefact in the city of Bergamo, Italy, which is part of a broader system of defence built by the Venetian Republic between the 15th and 17th centuries. Among the many related initiatives, one was launched by the University of Bergamo and involved nearly a hundred primary school children in a series of multidisciplinary workshops. Children worked to produce a guidebook and a short animated film aimed at reconstructing the meanings and the values embodied by the Venetian Walls, an enduring cultural icon surrounding the medieval upper town. This project is triggering both downscaling and upscaling dynamics in the regeneration process of this historic urban infrastructure. It also contributes to the creation and sharing of new meanings around this heritage, which are strongly related to its value for the citizenship as well as for the visitors.

NEED FOR ANTI-LITTERING LEGISLATION IN INDIA
Creators: name: Chauhan, Anjali
Publisher: name: Humanities Commons
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Law
subject: FOS: Law

description: Littering is one of the most pervasive social issues and yet subconsciously one of the accepted habits. The disappointment emerging from continuous failure in maintaining spick and span public spaces led to the writing of this paper. Further, the amount of litter only seems to rise despite all the furor about sustainability and preservation of the environment. The paper takes into account the various provisions adopted in certain parts of India and other countries, with regard to environmental conservation and ensuring cleanliness. It offers the solution to the issue of omnipresent litter in the form of an Anti-Littering Law. This paper seeks to elaborate on the dire need to have an anti-littering law and the chain of positive change that it will set in motion. Suggestions are being made in the paper by furnishing provisions of Anti-Littering Legislation. It aims to offer practical and tangible solutions to the litter problem.
