The Quality and Quantity of Participation in Peer Leader Experiences and Student Outcomes
A framework for developing and supporting student leadership in higher education
Developing leadership in students is part of the remit of higher education institutions. In recent decades, student leadership development programs have proliferated at universities worldwide. However, the contested understanding of the term ‘leadership’ has resulted in lack of clarity regarding how this may be ‘developed’ in higher education. There are many programs that contribute towards developing leadership in students and not all of them do…
(Re)Conceptualising inclusive education in New Zealand
This article explores the experiences of 14 students with severe and complex behaviour, their caregivers, and teachers/principals as the students transition from a disestablished residential school back to mainstream schools, with support from the Intensive Wraparound Service (IWS). Interviews were the primary source of data collection. Data were collated into 14 cases, and analysed using a general inductive approach. Two broad themes are address…
It’s all he’s going to say’
The article explores the experiences of Zac, Bob-Charley, Kip, and Carter (not their real names), four of 15 boys aged between nine and 13 years who, along with their caregivers, families and school principals, were interviewed as part of a project about the students’ transition from a dis-established residential school to mainstream schools. Throughout the course of the project we became increasingly aware of the lack of existing school-focused …
It's almost a mindset that teachers need to change
This article discusses the findings related to a number of research projects investigating students’ expectations and experiences of the first year in higher education. In particular, findings with regard to first‐year students’ expectations and challenges with issues of time management are reported. It was found that many students were realistic about having to plan their work independently, and having to spend a good amount of their time during…
Provision of Health Care in Rural Afghanistan
Afghanistan’s health system is severely limited in terms of preventive and curative services, referral systems, and human resources. Most of the country’s citizens reside in rural areas, a majority of which are served by “basic health units” (small and simple facilities that provide primary care), and these rural residents face additional challenges regarding timely access to quality health care. The analysis described in this article, which focu…
The Aral Sea disaster and self-rated health
The dynamics and characteristics of aeolian dust in dryland Central Asia
The drying up of the Aral Sea has been described as one of the most staggering environmental disasters of the twentieth century. Over the last 40 years over 36 000 km2 of the former seabed have been exposed, creating a potentially significant aeolian dust source. It is widely believed, but little researched, that increased dust storm activity in the region has had a major impact on human health. In this paper we report the findings of a study int…
Impacts of an environmental disaster on psychosocial health and well-being in Karakalpakstan
Dynamics of Urban Systems
In this paper we present a general theory of urban development, which we then compare with the developments in the urban system of the Netherlands, for the years 1970 to 1986. We propose that urban dynamics are started by and are continually influenced by fundamental changes in technology, social values, demography, and politics. Each factor will be more significant in one stage of urban development than in others, and therefore a four stage cycl…
