  • OECD/IMHE Project Self Evaluation Report: Atlantic Canada, Canada
    OECD/IMHE Project Supporting the Contribution of Higher Education Institutions to Regional Development Self Evaluation Report: Atlantic Canada, Canada Wade Locke (Memorial University), Elizabeth Beale (Atlantic Provinces Economic Council), Robert Greenwood (Harris Centre, Memorial University), Cyril Farrell (Atlantic Provinces Community College Consortium), Stephen Tomblin (Memorial University), Pierre-Marcel Dejardins (Université de Moncton), Frank Strain (Mount Allison University), and Godfrey Baldacchino (University of Prince Edward Island) December 2006 (Revised March 2007) ii Acknowledgements This self-evaluation report addresses the contribution of higher education institutions (HEIs) to the development of the Atlantic region of Canada. This study was undertaken following the decision of a broad group of partners in Atlantic Canada to join the OECD/IMHE project “Supporting the Contribution of Higher Education Institutions to Regional Development”. Atlantic Canada was one of the last regions, and the only North American region, to enter into this project. It is also one of the largest groups of partners to participate in this OECD project, with engagement from the federal government; four provincial governments, all with separate responsibility for higher education; 17 publicly funded universities; all colleges in the region; and a range of other partners in economic development. As such, it must be appreciated that this report represents a major undertaking in a very short period of time. A research process was put in place to facilitate the completion of this self-evaluation report. The process was multifaceted and consultative in nature, drawing on current data, direct input from HEIs and the perspectives of a broad array of stakeholders across the region. An extensive effort was undertaken to ensure that input was received from all key stakeholders, through surveys completed by HEIs, one-on-one interviews conducted with government officials and focus groups conducted in each province which included a high level of private sector participation.

At what point to make the first mark? One line placed on the canvas committed her to innumerable risks, to frequent and irrevocable decisions. All that... in idea seemed simple became in practice immediately complex...still the risk must be run, the mark made... ”2 Virginia Wool f In the provocative passage above, from Virginia Woolf’s poignant novel To the Lighthouse , we are reminded of the considerable differences between “thinking” (or theorizing, however rigourous) about art, and the essential and complex challenges of actually “making” art.

  • Memo to NSCAD Community and Students
    March 4, 2019 MEMO TO: STUDENTS AND MEMBERS OF THE NSCAD COMMUNITY RE: ISSUE CLARIFICATION To students and members of the NSCAD community: I am writing to provide you with some information and clarification on a number of issues. The Board of Governors and administration understand how difficult this work stoppage is for members of our community. We sincerely hope that we can reach a timely resolution that is fair to our valued faculty and affordable for NSCAD. We understand that a university is much more than bricks and mortar. Our faculty and staff give life to the institution and we value their work and contributions tremendously. We have put forward a proposal that enhances the faculty’s total compensation package and addresses numerous issues raised by faculty, including teaching workload. Together, we have worked hard to put NSCAD back on the path to financial sustainability. We are a very small university and growing student enrollment is critical to our success. We have experienced modest enrollment growth – but we must continue to do so to keep up with rising costs, invest in critical infrastructure, and keep tuition fees in check. Below, you will find some important clarifications to issues being raised in this labour disruption. I encourage you to ask us questions and to stay informed. Please visit our labour website for updates https://navigator.nscad.ca/labour/. You may also submit questions directly to [email protected]. Please know that we are all hoping for a timely resolution. Sincere regards, Prof. Dianne Taylor-Gearing, FRSA President, NSCAD University 1 - 2 - Issues for Clarification: We have heard that NSCAD has not meaningfully participated in the collective bargaining process.

  • Does Accreditation Matter for Art & Design Schools in Canada?
    College Quarterly Winter 2013 - Volume 16 Number 1 (../index.html) Does Accreditation Matter for Art & Design Schools in Canada? Home By Reiko (Leiko) Shimizu (../index.html) Studio-based degrees in fine arts and design are not often written Contents about in higher education literature. Perhaps it is because art and design (index.html) education is misunderstood – students are viewed as “finding themselves” or have unrealistic dreams of becoming the next big artist. Perhaps the studio-based nature of the curriculum does not intrigue researchers to write about issues that concern it, or perhaps it is because anyone can call themself an artist without having an academic credential. Ten years ago, urban theorist Richard Florida coined the term the “creative class” as individuals who “do a wide variety of work in a wide variety of industries – from technology to entertainment, journalism to finance, high- end manufacturing to the arts….they share a common ethos that values creativity, individuality, difference, and merit” (Florida, 2002, para. 8). According to Florida the creative class helps build economic development; therefore, our cities should be nurtured to be more inviting to these types of individuals. This emphasis on culture and creativity is at the foundation of art and design education. Groys (2009) argues that art education is complicated and subjective; it ultimately has no rules and that “teaching art means teaching life” (as cited in Madoff, 2009, p. 27). If that is the case, how does one measure quality in a field that is viewed as so subjective? How does one define and value art and design education? One’s notion of good art and design can be vastly different from another’s, and both views may come from experts in the field.
