Both the South Australian Olympic Council (SAOC) and our fundraising operation, the South Australian Games Appeal (SAGA), have been successfully managed by the SAOC Administration. The future of the SAOC has been strengthened by ongoing support from the Australian Olympic Committee (AOC) via their Administration Grant of $209,000 for the 2013-16 Quad, and the SA Government Administrative Grant of $150,000 for the same period, coupled with the surplus/bonus of the SAOC/SAGA successes ($130,460) in 2008. Those who experienced the 2012 London Olympic Games, either as a competitor, official, or supporter were overwhelmed with the London Games Organising Committee’s outstanding planning and execution that reset the Olympic benchmark. South Australia had 39 athletes selected, which exceeded the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games number of 27 athletes. A list of these athletes and those that won medals can be found later in this report. The support given to our State’s Olympians by the South Australian Sports Institute (SASI) and SAGA should be praised. The Welcome Home Parade was cancelled due to inclement weather, however, the SA Government and City of Adelaide hosted a Town Hall Reception and a “meet the people” in Rundle Mall. Highlighting the Olympic year was the enormous effort of SAGA. Fundraising for the Quadrennium totalled $1,356,806 with the 2012 Premier’s Games Appeal Dinner raising $252,334. All targets were met, as per the distributions set out below:- SA Gov SA Games Total Donation Appeal Fundraising Contribution $300k AOC $400k AOC $700k AOC $100k APC $150k APC $250k APC $100k ACGA $150k ACGA $250k ACGA $100k RGEADF $100k RGEADF Once again, we acknowledge the wonderful support given to our fundraising operations by SAGA Chairman, Mr Robert Gerard AO; Mrs Fay Gerard OAM, the SA Games Appeal Committee members and all of its Sub-Committee’s being Dinner, Events, Finance & Membership. The future of our fundraising will be a challenge, due to the tough economic market conditions; however exciting plans are in place for the next Quadrennium dinners (i.e. Russia, Scotland and Rio de Janeiro). Every year I have appealed to our 28 Affiliated Sports to book a table at the Premier’s Games Appeal Dinner, which would vindicate your recognition on your athletes’ behalf of the dollars being raised to support SA Olympians. Reporting on the financial results of the SAOC for 2012 and the Quadrennium should be separate to the SAGA fundraising operations. However, as the SAOC manages the SAGA operations as well as delivering the SAOC administration, it remains responsible directly to the AOC. The Annual Report identifies the following SAOC financial results: 3 For the Year ended 31st December 2012: Revenues $96,502 Expenses $97,247 Profit/Loss ($745) Statement of Financial Position (SAOC Inc.) at 31st December 2012: Total Assets $19,239 Total Liabilities $405 Total Equity $18,834 (covering the period (2009-2012). As is the practise with all State Olympians club, the SAOC continues to support and provide valuable resource to the Olympians Club of SA. The future success of this “exclusive” club rests with the younger members making a stronger contribution in their own right to initiate new generation activities that will support fellow members. The Olympic Movement in South Australia is fortunate to enjoy strong support from the SA Government, donating $300,000 towards the 2009-12 Olympic Appeal and $150,000 towards the Administration of SAGA Management. Together with the SA Department of Recreation and Sport, and the South Australian Sports Institute, I must extend the Olympic Councils appreciation for the ongoing support and acknowledgement of the Olympic movement in South Australia. With the recent media coverage from the ACC and ASADA, it’s gratifying that the AOC continues to lead in the fight against criminal activity and drugs in sport. Governments, Sports, Athletes, media and the public can feel well served by AOC President John Coates AC and the Executive as the AOC stands firm with its policies during these difficult times. It is imperative that our State Olympic Council continues to reflect and work closely at all times with AOC Strategy and Policy. The Olympic Council executive recently held a Strategic Vision 2013-16 Seminar in preparation for the next Quadrennium. Topics covered included; AOC Charter; SAOC Constitution; SAOC Financial Structure; Affiliated Sports; Olympian Club; Fundraising and SA Government. The incoming President and Executive will be responsible for considering the recommendations of this seminar. As advised I am stepping down as President after 23 years, so in my last report I wish to acknowledge and thank all the Executive Directors and Committee members who have worked alongside myself to ensure the Olympic ideals are well developed and practised in South Australia. I am satisfied that as a team, we have achieved much and met the expectations of all our stakeholders. Kirsty Withers has developed into a most successful Executive Director who will continue to manage both the SAOC and SAGA with strong credibility and professionalism. My thanks to Kirsty, the Executive and volunteers who have supported the SAOC and myself in 2012. In conclusion I would like to extend my personal thanks to the following people who have been instrumental in supporting my role as President of the SAOC during the past 23 years: Robert & Fay Gerard, Margaret Ralston, Chrissie Mainprize, Robbie Granger, Amelia Weston, Kirsty Withers, Ruth Hemmerling, Elizabeth Tasker, Geoffrey Pitt, Marc Colquhoun, Leon Gregory, John Coates, Craig Phillips, Simon Forrest, Paul Anderson, Wes Battams, Roger Wills, Don Moir, Phyllis Southgate & Jennie Bell. DAVID PRINCE OAM PRESIDENT 4 2012 Executive Director’s Report 2012 was an incredibly busy year for the South Australian Olympic Council across all of our functions. We were determined to “piggy back” off the Olympic hype to create a positive result for both our fundraising and also Olympic Education programs. With a small team of staff and dedicated volunteers across both the corporate and sporting sector I believe we capitalised on the general interest and mass following created in a games year. I have split my report into three headings to identify the major functions of the South Australian Olympic Council. The first being Fundraising and the management of the South Australian Games Appeal which includes all of our fundraising operations, secondly Olympic Education, and finally the support we provide to our affiliated sports. FUNDRAISING SA Games Appeal Committee The South Australian Games Appeal Committee met five times in 2012. The committee was determined to meet the Appeal targets set out in 2009. With only fair results in 2009 & 2010, the fundraising model was under much scrutiny in 2011, with much emphasis on the “cost of fundraising” and creating higher returns. With great leadership from the Committee members we have been able to reduce our costs of fundraising but most importantly increase our income. I would like to thank the SAGA committee members for providing not only great leadership but also vital businesses know how. Much of our success comes from their professional advice and support. The SAGA Committee has been operating since 1994, focused initially on the Olympic Team appeal, in 2001 the Committee formalised an agreement to run as a joint Appeal and included the Paralympic and Commonwealth Teams. At our Christmas Drinks hosted by Ernst & Young, we acknowledged five committee members who have been involved from the very beginning, these were: Marc Colquhoun, Robert Gerard AO, Fay Gerard OAM, Geoffrey Pitt and David Prince OAM. Each of these individuals have provided extraordinary support, and I wish to congratulate them all on being awarded an Honorary Games Appeal membership. Quarter Club The Quarter Club celebrated its tenth year in 2012, over the last ten years it has carved out a niche within the Corporate networking market, but most importantly the Quarter Club and its members have underpinned the fundraising efforts of the SAGA. The Club draws on the many parallels between business and high performance sport. Members pay an annual fee, which includes an allocation of tickets to our flagship event, the Premier’s Games Appeal Dinner. Members enjoy a number of other events throughout the year and contribute towards a number of fundraising initiatives presented year round. Currently membership stands at 106 Quarter Club members and 64 Emerging Leaders. Adelaide Appeals Committee Once again we are grateful for the wonderful support provided by the Adelaide Appeals Committee, chaired by Mrs Fay Gerard OAM. This committee raises funds during their annual Race Day Luncheon held in the Tapestry Pavilion at Morphettville Racecourse.

I met with David Szach a number of times to record his version of events and his efforts to clear his name for the murder of lawyer Derrance Stevenson. After examining the trial transcripts, the grounds for appeal, and the reports by forensic scientists investigating the evidence presented by the forensic pathologist, I unravel the crime to reveal its hidden nature and consequences.

    Rear Admiral the Honourable Kevin Scarce AC CSC RAN (Rtd) Royal Commissioner Nuclear Fuel Cycle Royal Commission GPO Box 11043 Adelaide SA 5001 3 August 2015 Dear Sir, This is my consolidated submission to the Nuclear Fuel Cycle Royal Commission addressing selected questions from all Issues Papers. Issues Paper One: Exploration, Extraction and Milling My response to Question 1.7 regarding the demand for uranium in the medium and long term is as follows. To begin, I quote the Commissioner from the article titled, “Jobs in nuclear industry are ‘decades away’”, published in The Advertiser on 25 July 2015: “If we decided – and we haven’t decided yet – to recommend parts of the nuclear fuel cycle, it would be a couple of decades before we started to see the major impact.” I submit that at this point in time there is no way to prove a sound basis exists for concluding there will be increased demand for uranium in the medium and long term. No doubt nuclear proponents will point to the world’s increasing energy needs, especially of the two developing giants, China and India. On the demand side, it is true the world will be looking for emissions-free energy on a massive scale to replace traditional fossil fuels. If uranium for producing nuclear energy was the only option to replace fossil fuels, I would not be writing this submission. The fact is, it is not the only option. Another, better option exists in renewable energy, and I submit that in a much shorter time than it would take to establish a nuclear industry in South Australia, the world will be turning to renewables in force while eschewing nuclear energy.

  • Cooperating Teacher Participation in Teacher Education: a Review of the Literature
    RER499618RER10.3102/0034654313499618Clarke et al.Cooperating Teachers Review of Educational Research June 2014, Vol. 84, No. 2, pp. 163–202 DOI: 10.3102/0034654313499618 © 2013 AERA. http://rer.aera.net Cooperating Teacher Participation in Teacher Education: A Review of the Literature Anthony Clarke University of British Columbia Valerie Triggs University of Regina Wendy Nielsen University of Wollongong Student teachers consider cooperating teachers to be one of the most impor- tant contributors to their teacher preparation program. Therefore, the ways in which cooperating teachers participate in teacher education are signifi- cant. This review seeks to move conceptions of that participation beyond commonly held beliefs to empirically supported claims. The analysis draws on Brodie, Cowling, and Nissen’s notion of categories of participation to generate 11 different ways that cooperating teachers participate in teacher education: as Providers of Feedback, Gatekeepers of the Profession, Modelers of Practice, Supporters of Reflection, Gleaners of Knowledge, Purveyors of Context, Conveners of Relation, Agents of Socialization, Advocates of the Practical, Abiders of Change, and Teachers of Children. When set against Gaventa’s typology of participation, the resultant grid high- lights the importance of negotiated or invited spaces for cooperating teacher participation and provides a new way of thinking about, planning profes- sional development for, and working with cooperating teachers. KEYWORDS: cooperating teacher, the practicum, teacher education, supervision, student teacher Teacher education represents a continuum of professional development for teachers as they seek to improve their practice. An early but critical phase on that continuum is the practicum, an extended field experience under the guidance of an experienced teacher who is often referred to as a cooperating teacher.
