  • Leveling up to honour ethical relationality

    Open AccessMargaret MacdonaldARTICLEEducation Inquiry2026Citada por: 1Referencias: 14

    Education today is not simple nor does it occur in isolation. Educators, now more than ever, are teaching within the global context of calls to action for truth and reconciliation with Indigenous communities around the world and a growing awareness of the damage caused by unsustainable human consumption of the environment. Drawing from an ongoing professional development project involving educators across four childcare centres, this article expl…

  • Teaching with the Virus

    Open AccessCher Hill, Margaret MacdonaldARTICLEAlberta Journal of Educational…2023

    Using new materiality theory, we analyzed teachers’ and administrators’ descriptions of educational practices and everyday life in schools during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. During this time, the virus and the Provincial Health Authority were agential parts of classrooms that both restricted pedagogical possibilities, as well as created openings for something new to occur. As educators taught “with the virus,” pedagogy and curriculum…

    This article summarizes two initiatives for artificial intelligence (AI) underway in the Canadian public service: public consultation and collaboration in compiling an algorithmic impact assessment, and a symposium on AI and human rights held by Global Affairs Canada. The findings contextualize the national consultations on digital and data transformation and future steps for more inclusive AI governance in Canada

  • Disrupting Boundaries in Education and Research

    Open AccessSuzanne Smythe, Cher Hill et al.BOOKDisrupting Boundaries in…2017

    In Disrupting Boundaries in Education and Research, six educational researchers explore together the potentialities of transdisciplinary research that de-centres human behaviour and gives materiality its due in the making of educational worlds. The book presents accounts of what happens when researchers think and act with new materiality and post-human theories to disrupt boundaries such as self and other, human and non-human, representation and …

  • Why ethnography matters in global health

    Open AccessM E Macdonald, Margaret MacdonaldARTICLEJournal of Global Health2017

    T he representative from the foreign aid agency, a woman with whom I had crossed paths several times in the small town of Mangochi in southern Malawi, banged her fist on the table. "How can we get them to distribute condoms? They should be distributing condoms!" She was referring to the traditional birth attendants (TBAs) in the Monkey Bay Safe Motherhood project that we were there in the meeting to discuss. She envisioned them as ideal community…

  • Trees for life

    Open AccessJames Reed, Josh van Vianen et al.ARTICLEForest Policy and Economics2017Citada por: 16Referencias: 11

    Despite expanding interest in ecosystem service research over the past three decades, in-depth understanding of the contribution of forests and trees to food production and livelihoods remains limited. This review synthesizes the current evidence base examining the contribution of forest and trees to agricultural production and livelihoods in the tropics, where production often occurs within complex land use mosaics that are increasingly subjecte…

  • Discovering Art Through Science

    Margaret MacdonaldARTICLEEducational Philosophy and Theory2016Referencias: 1

    Elwyn Richardson’s work at Oruaiti School from 1949 to 1962 has been almost exclusively interpreted as a unique experiment in art and craft education, partially as a result of impact of his book, In The Early World. The book is viewed as evidence of innovative departmental policies that allowed teachers wide latitude for experimentation, access to ample high-quality art materials and professional support. This interpretation of his work is, howev…

    This past May a major international conference called Women Deliver took place in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Women Deliver is a relatively new but significant force in the international reproductive health arena.

Women Deliver Kuala Lumpur was the biggest confe…

  • The Caring Dilemma in Midwifery

    Ivy Lynn Bourgeault, Jacquelyne Luce et al.ARTICLECommunity Work & Family2006Referencias: 5

    The caring dilemma, first described by Reverby in 1987, denotes the tension caused by being obliged to provide care without the right to determine how that care is to be provided. Such a dilemma is salient in the practice of midwifery based on a continuity of care model that has recently emerged or been implemented in various jurisdictions. Briefly, this model involves the provision of care by a single midwife or pair of midwives to a woman throu…

  • Gender Expectations

    Open AccessM E Macdonald, Margaret MacdonaldARTICLEMedical Anthropology Quarterly2006Citada por: 23Referencias: 7

    In this article, I examine the meaning of natural bodies and natural births in contemporary midwifery in Canada and explore the impact of these central concepts on the embodied experiences of pregnant and birthing women. The ideal of a natural birth has been used as a successful rhetorical strategy in scholarly and popular feminist works on childbirth to counter and critique the predominant biomedical or "technocratic" model of the pregnant and b…

    M E Macdonald, Margaret MacdonaldARTICLEMedical Anthropology2001Citada por: 3Referencias: 11

    In 1994, after more than a century of uncertain legal status, the Province of Ontario legalized midwifery and incorporated midwives into the formal health care system. Midwifery is now accessible and publicly funded for all women experiencing "normal" uncomplicated pregnancy and birth. Yet midwifery's move from the margins into the mainstream health care system has brought many new challenges. Midwives must now contend with an expanded scope of p…
