Friday 2 March, 2018. 9.00Am-5.00Pm Minor Works Building 22 Stamford Court, Adelaide Laboratory Adelaide: Flinders University Friday 2 March, 2018. 9.00am-5.00pm Minor Works Building 22 Stamford Court, Adelaide. A summit on the value of culture and the arts. The research project "Laboratory Adelaide: The Value of Culture", now in its third and final year, has explored the problem culture faces proving its worth today. The core issue is that the concept of value itself has been distorted and dismembered by political and methodological forces over the last forty years. There is no quick, methodological fix to the problem of value. Instead, there is a need, across many sectors including and beyond culture, for a richer discussion of value. WHEN DID VALUE BECOME A NUMBER? Friday 2 March, 2018 1 Laboratory Adelaide: Flinders University PROGRAM TIME SESSION 8.30am Registration 9.00 – 9.15 Welcome and acknowledgements Acknowledgment of Country; Opening remarks • Professor Vanessa Lemm, Vice President Executive Dean of the College of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences, Flinders University • Professor Julian Meyrick, Strategic Professor of Creative Arts, Flinders University 9.15-10.15 Panel 1: Laboratory Adelaide: The Value of Culture Julian Meyrick, Robert Phiddian, Richard Maltby, Tully Barnett, Heather Robinson Laboratory Adelaide: The Value of Culture is a three year ARC Linkage project that partners Flinders University with three major South Australian cultural institutions: the State Library of South Australia, the State Theatre Company of South Australia and the Adelaide Festival Corporation. The project is nearing completion; here, we talk about some of the key results of the project, and point to the next stage of research for our team. • No methodology is a silver bullet • Language and qualitative data are crucial in understanding and communicating the value of arts and culture • The value of culture is conferred at least in part through formal and informal reporting mechanisms • The problem of value in culture is tied to the interdisciplinary problem of value 10.15-10.45 Morning tea 10.45-12.45 Panel 2: We’re Not Alone: The Problem of Value in Other Domains What does value mean now? We bring together speakers from the domains of philosophy, economics, science, ethics, volunteering and the environment to explore how the very concept of value is under pressure beyond the Arts.

  • Leveraging Work-Integrated Learning Through On- Campus Employment: a University-Wide Approach
    Special Issue: Work Integrated Learning - Investing in the Future. Papers from the Australian Collaborative Education Network Annual Conference 2012 Leveraging work-integrated learning through on- campus employment: A university-wide approach GAON MITCHELL1 Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia JUDIE KAY RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia At Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia, the majority of students engage in paid employment alongside their studies; and, every student has the opportunity to engage with work-integrated learning as a key component of their academic course. This paper explores an innovative structured approach the university has initiated to align these two activities: the Students as Staff Program. The 2011 Students as Staff evaluation found that 20 per cent of respondents received academic credit for their on-campus employment and more indicated their roles were related to their discipline of study. Additionally, respondents reported feeling significantly engaged with the university and that work on campus had contributed to developing their graduate capabilities. These evaluation results indicate that on-campus employment through a structured program enhances student learning outcomes. This paper discusses key ways in which tertiary institutions can expand their capacity to support and enhance student learning and develop graduate capabilities through on-campus paid work opportunities. (Asia-Pacific Journal of Cooperative Education, 2013 14(3), 185- 193) Keywords: Work-integrated learning, Graduate capabilities, Part-time work, On-campus employment The employment of students on campus at Australian universities is not a new phenomenon, and indeed has been occurring for as long as universities have existed. Students working on campus results in a unique relationship between the student and the institution.

  • PAT HOFFIE: Skatebowl in a Gallery, Ipswich Essay by Julianne Schultz
    PAT HOFFIE: Skatebowl in a Gallery, Ipswich essay by Julianne Schultz MONA – the Museum of Old and New Art – is a glamorous curiosity box on the banks of the Derwent River at Glenorchy in working class Hobart. In just a few years it has been the catalyst of and economic and social transformation – crystallising the cultural essence of early twenty-first century Tasmania, and changing notions of productive work. In the process it has put the state on the global tourism agenda, providing opportunities for artists, craftspeople, performers and thinkers to find like minded souls and develop new businesses and to stretch the horizons and possibilities for countless others. Similar interventions are occurring around the world, as artists, entrepreneurs, local administrators and communities stretch the boundaries of engagement, creativity and art. Skatebowl in a Gallery, Ipswich is the most recent move into this space by the important Brisbane artist, Pat Hoffie. That this work, titled Immaterial Labour: Skatebowl Prounspace has found a home at the Ipswich Art Gallery is itself important – it is the juxtapostion of works like this in unexpected places, and with people who may not routinely visit a gallery, that adds to their power and impact. MONA is a great example. It is itself arguably as much a work of art – of genius – as some of the works assembled in its subterranean galleries and inspiring spaces. It is a product of vision and skill of one man, David Walsh, executed with unstinting precision using the proceeds of a form of work (gambling), which is more often thought of as play.

  • The Public Humanities
    The Public Humanities 10-11-12 November 2016 Hosted by the ARC Centre for the History of Emotions, the ACHRC, and Flinders University in Adelaide, South Australia The ACHRC conference on the Public Humanities focuses on a core aspect of humanities research that is particularly germane to research centres in universities and collecting institutions: the integral role of engagement with publics. This is really how the impact of our sector needs to be understood: in the long and dynamic threads of dialogue between researchers and publics on issues such as justice, creativity, decolonization, and heritage. The capacity of the humanities to deal with qualitative emotion as well as the quantitative facts of history and culture is crucial here. Any understanding of a cultures past, present, and future requires an articulation of feelings as well as of facts. Our aim is to bring together speakers with practical experience of programs that work so that our discussions are grounded in the pragmatics of public humanities. In Australia and New Zealand, government-led discussions of innovation and impact are mired in metrics that traduce the real public values of the sciences almost as completely as they ignore the HASS disciplines as a whole. We know about public value – its impact over time and in the lives of individuals – so this conference will be an opportunity build our case as a sector. Keynotes from: Professor Julianne Schulz, ‘Culture in the Age of Innovation’ Professor Thomas Dixon, ‘Unfriending and Weeping in Public’ 1 PROGRAMME Thursday

  • JOURNAL of the ROYAL HISTORICAL SOCIETY of QUEENSLAND The
    JOURNAL of the ROYAL HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF QUEENSLAND Volume XIII, No. 8 November 1988 The Clem Lack Oration The Dawn of the Satellite Era in Australia by Cameron Hazlehurst Presented 24 March, 1988 With few exceptions, the coming of domestic satelhtes to Austraha has not yet engaged the attention of historians. The story began little more than a decade ago and it still unfolds as a significant issue in the political life of both the Commonwealth and the states. But where the phenomenon is so recent, the sources remain restricted, the actors are mostly reticent about their roles, and the historical profession is confronted by subjects of intimidating technical complexity, it is scarcely surprising that we await anything more than tantalisingly short narratives and manifestly tendentious ideological critiques. For anyone dependent, as most citizens are, on tabloid newspapers, popular magazines, and commercial television newscasts, the coming of the AUSSAT satellites may have seemed like a simple and heroic tale of technological progress and Dr Hazlehurst is a Fellow in History in the Research School of Social Sciences, Australian National University. He previously held senior public service posts and his books include Menzies Observed (1979) and Gordon Chalk (1987). 270 entrepreneurial inhiative. From this point of view, the inevitable progress would have been swifter, if governments had had the wisdom and discretion to keep their own interference to the absolute minimum. The popular media — self interested in this matter as its proprietors were — gave some glimpses of dissent and debate but characteristicahy left the ordinary person unenlightened about events and issues which were the subject of intense speculation, controversy, and contumely.

  • Sydney Is Singularly Fortunate in That, Unlike Other Australian Cities, Its Newspaper History Has Been Well Documented
    Two hundred years of Sydney newspapers: A SHORT HISTORY By Victor Isaacs and Rod Kirkpatrick 1 This booklet, Two Hundreds Years of Sydney Newspapers: A Short History, has been produced to mark the bicentenary of publication of the first Australian newspaper, the Sydney Gazette and New South Wales Advertiser, on 5 March 1803 and to provide a souvenir for those attending the Australian Newspaper Press Bicentenary Symposium at the State Library of New South Wales, Sydney, on 1 March 2003. The Australian Newspaper History Group convened the symposium and records it gratitude to the following sponsors: • John Fairfax Holdings Ltd, publisher of Australia’s oldest newspaper, the Sydney Morning Herald • Paper World Pty Ltd, of Melbourne, suppliers of original newspapers from the past • RMIT University’s School of Applied Communication, Melbourne • The Printing Industries Association of Australia • The Graphic Arts Merchants Association of Australia • Rural Press Ltd, the major publisher of regional newspapers throughout Australia • The State Library of New South Wales Printed in February 2003 by Rural Press Ltd, North Richmond, New South Wales, with the assistance of the Printing Industries Association of Australia. 2 Introduction Sydney is singularly fortunate in that, unlike other Australian cities, its newspaper history has been well documented. Hence, most of this short history of Sydney’s newspapers is derived from secondary sources, not from original research. Through the comprehensive listing of relevant books at the end of this booklet, grateful acknowledgement is made to the writers, and especially to Robin Walker, Gavin Souter and Bridget Griffen-Foley whose work has been used extensively.

  • Transfer of Teaching Materials Between Universities Where Is the Boundary Between Legitimate Transaction and Violation of Moral Intellectual Property Rights?
    AUSTRALIAN UNIVERSITIES’ REVIEW OPINION Transfer of teaching materials between universities Where is the boundary between legitimate transaction and violation of moral intellectual property rights? Matthias Maiwald KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital, Singapore, and National University of Singapore Kathy Harrington National Tertiary Education Union, University of South Australia Branch, Adelaide, Australia Intellectual property rights have various facets. The best-known one is copyright, enabling the owner to legally utilise intellectual materials. However, there is a separate set of legal entitlements, termed moral intellectual property rights. The purpose of these is to prevent false attribution, damage to an author’s reputation and some forms of plagiarism. In the current example, a teaching curriculum was licensed by one Australian university to several others. While this is consistent with copyright ownership, the moral rights aspect was overlooked. Teaching materials had the names of the original authors removed and were used at the receiving institution either without attribution, or with sole attribution to the other set of staff. This constitutes a breach of authors’ moral rights and would also fulfil common definitions of plagiarism. Background and introduction Around 2006/07, it became known to academic staff at Flinders Medical School that the curriculum would be The Flinders University of South Australia’s School of licensed to other medical schools; the names of Deakin Uni- Medicine is a well-respected medical school within Aus- versity in Victoria, Griffith University in Queensland, and St. tralia.
