Generative AI/machine learning in the screen production classroom and the implications for tertiary educators
Exploring the meaning of campus through lived experiences of students, staff, and visitors
University campuses are important places of cultural, intellectual, and economic capital, making significant contributions to their surrounding communities. As institutions seek to navigate changing expectations for university teaching, learning, research and impact, an exploration of the interface of individual experience and the campus environment is both timely and valuable. This is especially true amidst the post-pandemic push to reenergize t…

What’s driving post-pandemic university student engagement? Findings from a design faculty
Situated within the many post-pandemic questions around patterns of student engagement and student choice, this paper explores the topic of why university students choose to attend campus on a day-to-day basis. This work builds on recent inquiry into the purpose of campus within broader narratives of university life, including notions of being a student and belonging to one’s institution. It is also positioned within student experience scholarshi…
Healthcare Support Workers Working With People With Dementia on Mental Health Wards
This study explores the practice of healthcare support workers (HCSWs) working with people with dementia on mental health wards for older people within the National Health Service in the United Kingdom. People with dementia in these settings have complex physical and mental health needs with significant behaviors that challenge and therefore require high levels of staff expertise to meet their needs. Underpinned by the theory of care aesthetics, …
Only my family can help
In the United Kingdom, people living with dementia admitted to National Health Service (NHS) psychiatric/mental health inpatient dementia assessment wards (dementia assessment wards) are nearly always compulsorily detained under a section of the Mental Health Act 1983 owing to the risk and complexity of the presenting condition. As such, dementia assessment wards admit some of the most vulnerable patients in society, yet these environments of car…

Creating and Reliving the Moment
Musical improvisation is a generative process of spontaneously creating music 'in the moment'. For people with young onset dementia, musical improvisation provides an extended opportunity for creative self-expression and connection to one's own body and life story. Using visual research methods, including video elicitation interviews, this paper explores the 'in the moment' musical experiences of five people living with young onset dementia who t…
Hunter–Gatherer children's close-proximity networks
Among vertebrates, allomothering (non-maternal care) is classified as cooperative breeding (help from sexually mature non-breeders, usually close relatives) or communal breeding (shared care between multiple breeders who are not necessarily related). Humans have been described with both labels, most frequently as cooperative breeders. However, few studies have quantified the relative contributions of allomothers according to whether they are (a) …

Gazing or glancing? Mapping student engagement when film studies moves online
This article presents the findings of a study undertaken by a team of three film studies teacher-researchers working with undergraduate students in a course titled ‘Histories of Film Theory’. In the context of the transition from face-to-face to remote learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, the authors observed that students’ approaches to understanding relevant film theories became increasingly inflected by their experiences of contrasting metho…
De-centring and the RiDE Journal
The World Trade Centre's twin towers are under attack from a group of suicide bombers. It is major news. The ramifications are extraordinary, and many people remember where they were on the day.But
Critical Analysis of “Divided Nation” Model Applications to China-Taiwan
Scholars have argued that “divided nations” (i.e., countries that have split into separate political entities) have distinct characteristics in the international system, and this model has been applied to China-Taiwan relations. Yet, despite ethnic, cultural, linguistic, and historical ties, the current state of cross-Strait relations does not resemble classic cases of the “divided nation” model such as East and West Germany, North and South Viet…
Care Aesthetics, Coronavirus and Everyday Life
The article outlines the concept of care aesthetics and then uses it to examine different responses to the coronavirus pandemic. The ambition is to provide a language and approach to everyday community-based practices that values them as caring and artistic, without necessarily determining whether they are first and foremost one or the other. The article outlines the origins of care aesthetics as a response to the field of feminist care ethics an…
Alternative Treasures
During the 1960s Roger Corman produced a series of adaptations based on the literature of Edgar Allan Poe, known commonly as his Poe cycle. They were B-films but they were also prestige pictures, flagship films for production company American International Pictures. This article argues that Corman embarked upon a renewal of Poe’s literary influence through creative mistranslation and examines two of Corman’s films. The Fall of the House of Usher …
To Applied Theatre, with Love
A violent event in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the loss of a friend created a path for re-engaging with applied theatre and love for the field of applied theatre. In a singularly loveless world, theatre practitioners, performance scholars, and activists need to renew a sense of passion, joy, and commitment to their work
Modelling residential habitability and human displacement for tsunami scenarios in Christchurch, New Zealand
Understanding the potential impacts of a large tsunami on a coastal region enables better planning of disaster management strategies. Potential housing damage, habitability, human displacement and sheltering needs are key concerns for emergency managers following tsunami events. This article presents a novel approach to address these requirements. We first review available literature on factors influencing residential habitability, human displace…

M artin T homas and R ichard T oye . Arguing about Empire
In Arguing about Empire: Imperial Rhetoric in Britain and France, 1882–1956, Martin Thomas and Richard Toye tackle “the most divisive arguments about empire” between and within Britain and France, from Tunisia and Morocco in the early 1880s to Suez in 1956 (1). Their aim is to examine how British and French elites justified imperial activity in cases of both competition and collaboration between the two states. They argue that claims of exception…

The British left in European perspective, c. 1880–1914
This article re-examines the British left between 1880 and 1914 in a European frame. It begins by exploring the enduring relevance of comparison through a brief review of recent historiographical trends, notably the global and transnational turns. Recognizing the importance of these bodies of literature, it nonetheless suggests that placing Britain in a European mirror remains a useful means of tracing and understanding political and intellectual…

Student & tutor consensus
The mistakes made when attempting tasks often prove to be some of the most invaluable learning experiences. Despite this, outcome and results driven assessment formats largely penalise student performance errors or reward students who succeed by chance. The consequences of this paradigm are visible effects on student relationships with assessment. The student–tutor consensus approach to assessment was introduced to capture student learning achiev…
No More Bystanders
2015 marked the 70th anniversary of the American atomic bombing of the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Amidst the commemorations in Hiroshima, London Bubble Theatre staged a performance created by an intergenerational Japanese cast from interviews with elders who experienced the day. Grandchildren of Hiroshima, in its performance and devising, troubled the idea of a nuclear war “bystander,” proposing that in fact there are no more bystanders, a…

Pictorial Lies'? - Posters and Politics in Britain c.1880-1914
In 1906, Joseph Chamberlain rose in the House of Commons to reply to the King's Speech on behalf of the Opposition. He rapidly came to the question of ‘Chinese slavery’, and the use made of it by the Liberals at the recent general election. Chamberlain displayed a series of posters to the House, beginning with one issued by the National Liberal Federation, and argued that ‘these men have their hands behind their backs’ and that the picture was in…
After the Fall
The fall of class in nineteenth-century British history has become a familiar tale. Its rise in the historiography of eighteenth-century Britain has been less noted. This essay explores the reasons for this divergence and emphasizes its methodological origins. It highlights the need for a comprehensive history of class society and identity to replace the confused and contradictory picture of particular classes and communities that is currently on…

Jane Austen wrote when sociology was being established as the new discipline to understand social issues such as urbanization and industrialization. Drawing on landmark sociologists such as Durkheim a
Modern Britain and the New Imperial History

It offers a close examination of debates about the relationship between ‘nation’ and ‘empire’ in modern British history, and assesses the strengths and weaknesses of existing approaches. The article identifies the need to integrate accounts of empire's impact upon Britain with a broader comparati…

The Lights of the Electric Octopus Have Been Switched Off’
This article reconstructs the visual culture of politics in Edwardian London through a study of the 1907 London County Council election. It moves beyond the memorable account given in Graham Wallas's Human Nature in Politics to examine the actors, especially associations and newspapers, that participated in the election. Drawing upon newspapers, election addresses, cartoon, leaflets, and posters, the article argues that Edwardian London was a pri…
The Great Labour Unrest and Political Thought in Britain, 1911-1914
This article reconstructs the political and economic debates generated by the Great Labour Unrest of 1911 to 1914. It reveals the breadth and depth of public discussion of the causes, remedies and meaning of industrial action. The first part examines how contemporaries explained the unrest. It shows how discussion of the origins of the strikes broadened into a debate about the political, economic and moral ‘condition of England’, while also demon…
Bewilderment
This article explores the history of employment training programmes for prisoners and three contemporary examples of practice. It argues that the history and current practice can be seen as a movement between two competing discourses. One that treats prison work as relevant for how it passes time and the other for how it prepares a prisoner for release. These are referred to as a ‘constative’ position‐one where the activity is only related to the…

Factors Influencing the Diagnosis of Mental Disorder Among Primary Care Patients
Understanding the role primary care physicians play in the recognition and management of mental disorder among their patients is a research topic that has assumed considerable importance because of the high prevalence combined with low recognition of mental morbidity in primary care settings. Patient characteristics that influence diagnostic patterns have been one important focus of this research. This paper presents data from a study in two prim…

Jane Austen and Mozart, Classical Equilibrium in Fiction and Music
Literary critics such as Virginia Woolf and Lionel Trilling had noted intuitive affinities between the art of Jane Austen and that of Mozart, but this 1983 book was the first to compare their artistic style and individual works in a comprehensive way. Extended comparisons are of course difficult because of the intrinsic differences between prose fiction and instrumental music. In Jane Austen and Mozart, Robert K. Wallace has succeeded in making i…

Theatre and Offender Rehabilitation
This article presents questions and comments arising from a year long fellowship in the USA to examine arts and theatre work with ‘at risk’ youth groups. The article concentrates on the therapeutic and what the author terms fine arts intervention work of these groups. The main areas for discussion are the problems of using role‐play in cognitive behavioural programmes, the relative merits of a fine arts approach and how all these methods do in fa…
