title: Human-competitive tagging using automatic keyphrase extraction

authors: Medelyan, Olena

subjects: computer science

abstract: This paper connects two research areas: automatic tagging on the web and statistical keyphrase extraction. First, we analyze the quality of tags in a collaboratively created folksonomy using traditional evaluation techniques. Next, we demonstrate how documents can be tagged automatically with a state-of-the-art keyphrase extraction algorithm, and further improve performance in this new domain using a new algorithm, “Maui”, that utilizes semantic information extracted from Wikipedia. Maui outperforms existing approaches and extracts tags that are competitive with those assigned by the best performing human taggers.

title: Ten years of the Waikato Journal of Education.

authors: McGee, Clive

subjects: education

abstract: The article reports on the 10th volume of 2004 Waikato Journal of Education, a cause for celebration and special comment. The journal's origins are closely linked to the origins of the School of Education at the University of Waikato. The school was formed from amalgamation of a teachers' college and university education department in the early 1990s. A Department of Leisure Studies was added soon after. Together, over 100 hundred academic staff worked in the broad field of education, notably teacher education, the education disciplines' and sport and leisure studies. These tertiary teachers ranged in experience from those who had established research reputations to those who had little or no published work.

title: Providing space for indigenous knowledge

authors: Tangihaere, Tracey Mininoa

subjects: indigenous knowledge

abstract: Colonial influences have generally failed to respect indigenous knowledge, languages, and cultures. Determination to reclaim First Nations identity is visible in many jurisdictions. First Nations Peoples continue to call on governments to facilitate changes needed to revitalize their economic, social, cultural, and spiritual well-being. This article is a reflective article generated from our response to the situation of Mäori, the indigenous peoples of New Zealand. It provides a background on the historical attempts to weaken Mäori leadership and the resilience of Mäori in their resistance to such undermining. Using a description of a physical space, the Marae (the meetinghouse), the authors provide a glimpse into a distinctive Mäori psychology connected to Marae encounters and into Mäori ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving. Three examples of organizational practice at the incorporation of such values are provided. Four implications for management education are posited as relevant not only to the education of managers in Aotearoa but wherever engagement with indigenous people occurs.
