Developing an equitable agenda for international capacity strengthening courses
Capacity strengthening activities – be that in the form of courses, workshops, seminars – have become embedded in research projects as a requirement for funding and as a means for researchers to demonstrate positive societal impacts. We apply qualitative research techniques including interviews, questionnaires and observations to scrutinise and document an international capacity strengthening course aimed at informing and supporting environmental…
Match games
This mixed methods study investigates novice teacher and coach survey responses from a two-year induction programme to learn more about what makes a good match. We qualitatively analyse comments from all novice teachers and coaches who were paired across years and find shared themes of structural, professional, and personality similarities as well as the importance of coaching support prominent throughout novice teacher responses. We also use log…

Leading composers, producers and writers consider the role of the composer in the community in Britain today and over the last fifty years. With his Aspen award lecture (1964), Benjamin Britten expressed a unique commitment to community and place. This book revisits this seminal lecture, but then uses it as a starting point of reflection, inviting leading composers, producers and writers to consider the role of the composer in the community in Br…
The impact of patient and public involvement in the work of the Dementias & Neurodegenerative Diseases Research Network (DeNDRoN)
Aims (i) To describe patient and public involvement (PPI) in a network promoting research in dementia and neurodegenerative diseases, in terms of activity at the different stages of the research cycle and within the different levels of the research network. (ii) To use case studies to try and answer the question: what benefits (if any) does PPI in research bring to the research process? Background PPI in health research is a central part of gover…
State education policy in california
California education policy makers are among the most active in the nation. The dynamics of policy formation in this state are complex and fast-paced, with virtually every important dimension of the school system affected by recent state level decisions. Structurally, the current period began in 1968 when SB 1 passed the legislature and was signed into law. This bill, frequently called the Magna Carta of education, removed many state mandates for…
Influence, power, and policy making
nisms of policy making do not portray the entire picture of influence in state education policy making. Rather, to understand policy making, the relevant groups and the arrangements of relative influence among those groups must be described. Based on data from the early field interviews in each state and on previous literature (Fuhrman and Rosenthal, 1982; Milstein and Jennings, 1973; Iannaccone, 1967; Wirt and Kirst, 1982; Marshall, 1985; Mitche…

The changing political and economic context surrounding public enterprise is briefly outlined and the successive attempts to give operational significance to concepts of accountability and performance are noted. In the light of this review recent developments in the framew…
