The faith of primary carers of persons with dementia
This small-scale study investigates the experience of 53 Christian churchgoers in the UK who are or have recently been the primary carers of a relative or friend suffering from dementia. Responses to a short questionnaire reveal how almost all these carers claim to have been supported by their faith, and how far it has been challenged and maybe deepened. Respondents also comment on the role of their local churches. Issues are identified where fur…

The research of Hardy and Hay is drawn upon to underline the significance of the spiritual aspect of human nature, and the writings of Berger and Hull to demonstrate its repression in modem life. Despite the problems…
Evaluating Courses
As institutions of Higher Education face up to current legislation, there is a growing pressure on them to clarify and establish their processes of monitoring and enhancing standards. This paper proposes that it is of benefit to institutions when they move from being merely reactive in meeting others’ performance indicators towards taking a proactive approach and developing their own system of review. The authors draw on their experience of apply…
A Personal Construct Approach to Evaluating Teaching Practice
During 1976, one of us decided to investigate the use of Kelly's personal construct theory and the triadic form of his repertory grid in enhancing understanding between a supervisor and a student‐teacher, when evaluating that student's teaching. An account of the procedure is given. In discussion, the student and supervisor agreed that the procedure, although long and demanding, led to a greater understanding of their own and each other's perspec…
