The practicality and relevance of peace in an EFL teacher training program
This study examines the practicality and relevance of positive peace (Galtung, 1964) in English as a foreign language (EFL) teacher training. It focuses on a collaborative three-month study abroad program, funded by the Chinese Scholarship Council, for EFL teachers from rural communities in western China to participate in an intensive professional development program hosted at a large Canadian university. Beginning with the premise that the teach…
Agencement, second language education, and becoming
This article makes novel use of the Deleuzo-Guattarian concepts of becoming and agencement to frame qualitative research on how youth from second language immigrant families conceptualize citizenship. Even though our work here is primarily conceptual, we refer to aspects of a previously published study to concretely illustrate these concepts for the reader. The study in question found that the participants exhibited a mixture of conceptualization…

Second Language Research, the Construction of Gendered Identity, and the Deleuzian Concept of Becoming Woman
How is gendered subjectivity constructed? How does the experience of immigrating to a new country and learning a new language affect this construction? Do Deleuze and Guattari have anything to offer to Second Language Education (SLE) theory, research, and practice in this regard? This article explores how the concept of becoming woman works through a reexamination of the data pertaining to gender in a study of adults learning English while negoti…
Citizenship and race in second-language education
This article explores the links between citizenship and race in second-language education through an examination of the ways in which citizenship is linked to English language proficiency within a key Canadian federal adult English as a Second Language assessment document, the Canadian Language Benchmarks (CLB). It uses data and updates the analysis from a previously treated study that compared the way in which citizenship was conceptualised with…
Estimating influenza vaccine effectiveness using routinely collected laboratory data
BACKGROUND: Estimation of influenza vaccine effectiveness (V/E) is needed early during influenza outbreaks in order to optimise management of influenza--a need which will be even greater in a pandemic situation. OBJECTIVE: Examine the potential of routinely collected virological surveillance data to generate estimates of V/E in real-time during winter seasons. METHODS: Integrated clinical and virological community influenza surveillance data coll…
Use of Dual Protection in Botswana
High rates of unintended pregnancy and of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections prompt calls for use of “dual‐protection” strategies, including consistent condom use or dual‐method use. This study examines the use of dual‐protection strategies in a sample of 15–49‐year‐old men and women in Botswana in 2003. Half of sexually active respondents reported consistent condom use in the past year; 2.5 percent reported dual‐method use. Multiple l…
Mortality in children from influenza and respiratory syncytial virus
Study objective: To quantify mortality attributable to influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in children. Design and methods: Comparison of death rates (all cause and certified respiratory) in England over winters 1989/90 to 1999/00 during and outside influenza and RSV circulation periods. Virus active weeks were defined from clinical and virological surveillance data. Excess deaths associated with weeks of either influenza or…
The problem of diagnostic variability in general practice
STUDY OBJECTIVE--The aim was to examine the scale, source, and relevance of variation between general practices in respect of the rates with which patients consulted with illnesses falling in each of several diagnostic groups. DESIGN--This study involved a general practice morbidity survey conducted over two years, 1970-72. All patients who consulted their general practitioners were identified and the number of these who consulted with diagnoses …
Disease concurrence in diabetes mellitus
STUDY OBJECTIVE--The aim was to examine disease concurrence, using diabetes mellitus as an ullustrative example. DESIGN--The study involved a general practice morbidity survey, conducted over 12 months in 1981-82. All patients who consulted their general practitioners with a diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (type 1 or type 2) were identified and the number of these who consulted with additional morbidities were counted for each rubric of the Royal …
The measurement of morbidity in general practice
(1) The need for morbidity data based on general practice arises because: (a) the consultation in general practice is the entry point into the health care system; (b) among the health problems brought to the attention of doctors, most are dealt with completely in general practice; (c) general practice records can provide a comprehensive database for health care. (2) The routine measurement of morbidity has to be based on "working diagnostic terms…
