  • Down on the Farm: a Qualitiative Study of Sustainable Agriculture and Food Systems Education at Liberal Arts Colleges and Universities
    DOWN ON THE FARM: A QUALITIATIVE STUDY OF SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE AND FOOD SYSTEMS EDUCATION AT LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES By Levi David Gardner A THESIS Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Community, Agriculture, Recreation and Resource Studies 2012 ABSTRACT DOWN ON THE FARM: A QUALITIATIVE STUDY OF SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE AND FOOD SYSTEMS EDUCATION AT LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES By Levi David Gardner At U.S. liberal arts colleges and universities, students in biology, environmental studies, and philosophy are setting down their laptops and notepads to grab shovels, tillers, and hoes. In recent years, sustainable agriculture and food systems (SAFS) education – previously an activity solely of land-grant universities (LGUs) - has entered the discourse at liberal arts schools often through environmental and interdisciplinary studies. Though little consensus exists on how these programs are fostered and supported, the fact that they are increasing in number is undeniable. This study seeks to understand the motivation, development, and organization of these initiatives. This is important and useful to contribute to the larger dialogue on the importance of student farms and other SAFS initiatives, and to broaden the conversation about the historical bifurcation of vocational and liberal arts educational models. Research of 16 liberal arts schools conducted in the spring of 2012 sought to understand and deconstruct the organizational relationships and mechanisms leveraged to develop these programs. This author discovered a diversity of institutional motivations including an emphasis on pedagogical techniques such as experiential education and service-learning in addition to the wide influence of sustainability.

This book was kindly donated by the author free of charge to visitors of the IIID Public Library / Website. International Institute for Information Design (IIID) designforum Wien, MQ/quartier 21 Museumsplatz 1, 1070 Wien, Austria www.iiid.net Information Design Theories ID A1 ID A2 Rune Pettersson * Institute for infology Information Design Theories ISBN 978-91-85334-34-6 © Rune Pettersson Tullinge 2016 All illustrations are my own. 2 Preface Information design is a multi-disciplinary, multi-dimensional, and worldwide consideration with influences from areas such as art and aesthetics, behaviour and cognition, communication, design, informa- tion, and language. Information design has practical and theoretical components. As an academic discipline we may view Information Design (ID) as a “theoretical practice” or as a “practical theory.” Information Design has incorporated facts, influences, methods, practices, principles, pro- cesses, strategies, theories, or parts of theories, and tools from a large number of supporting sciences. In this book I present one internal information design theory, and six external information design theories with more than hundred facts, hypotheses, and postulates. The internal theory, called infology theory, is based on research within the academic discipline Information De- sign. The six external information design theories are based on research in supporting sciences. These theories are called Aesthetics theory for ID, Facilitating theory for ID, Communication theory for ID, Provid- ing theory for ID, Information theory for ID, and Language theory for ID.

Permanent link to this version: http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:umu:diva-119215 Vocational Literacy in Mozambique: Historical Development, Current Challenges and Contradictions OLEG POPOV and ALZIRA MANUEL Abstract The study analyses the historical development of vocational literacy in basic education and Non-Formal Vocational Education (NFVE) in Mozambique, as well as current challenges and contradictions. The theoretical lens of Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) is employed in the study. Methodologically the study was executed through an analysis of oral, printed and e-resources produced by the main stakeholders and also the reflective experiences of the authors in their extensive educational work in the country. The findings reveal poorly developed vocational literacy education in schools and non-formal settings in spite of recurrent political declarations about its importance. There is a strong dependence by formal and particularly NFVE sectors on the technical and financial support provided by international organisations. Vocational literacy courses are characterized by a lack of adequate equipment and poor practice.

  • Agricultural Literacy: Clarifying a Vision for Practical Application
    Journal of Agricultural Education Volume 49, Number 1, pp. 85 - 98 DOI: 10.5032/jae.2008.01085 AGRICULTURAL LITERACY: CLARIFYING A VISION FOR PRACTICAL APPLICATION David Powell, Doctoral Research Assistant David Agnew, Associate Professor Arkansas State University Cary Trexler, Assistant Professor University of California – Davis Abstract “Agricultural literacy” is a working concept with considerable range in meaning and impact. An overview of agricultural literacy curricula shows complementary deductive and inductive approaches to the systematic incorporation of agricultural education in K-12 classrooms. Based on positions discussed at the 2005 Agricultural Literacy Special Interest Group meeting of the American Association for Agricultural Education, the authors identified three curricular approaches to promote agricultural literacy: (1) a deductive approach based on programmed frameworks, (2) an inductive approach based on the application of knowledge and process skills, and (3) a utilitarian, values-based approach promoting evaluation of agri-food system issues. The authors provide an original conceptual model underscoring points of possible synergy between these approaches. The model points out interactions imposed on the system by cognitive-constructivist expectations for learning, which conflict with political and social pressures for a “traditional” curriculum assessed through “high-stakes” tests. The authors suggest capitalizing on the strengths of each approach to lever change within the current public education environment.
