Brookes Launches a New Report and Support Student Safety Tool and It's Not Brookes Onstream home (/onstream/) / Onstream highlights 11 October 2018 Brookes launches a new Report and Support student safety tool and It's Not Brookes. It’s Not OK campaign A new University-wide Report and Support tool (https://www.brookes.ac.uk/students/report-and-support/) is now live, enabling Brookes students and staff to report incidents or behaviours involving students. These may be related to (but not limited to): bullying and harassment hate incidents sexual assault and rape unwanted sexual conduct and stalking. Incidents which have occurred on campus or away from the University can be reported, either with contact details or anonymously using the online tool. It’s Not Brookes. It’s Not Ok campaign Later this month, the University is launching a campaign to students across all our campuses promoting the Report and Support tool through posters, screens and social media. Students will be encouraged to pledge their support for the campaign and wear the It’s Not Brookes. It’s Not OK temporary tattoos and badges. How you can support the campaign Staff are encouraged to help make students aware of the Report and Support tool and how to use it. If you’re concerned about the safety of a student you can also use the tool to report incidents in the following ways: submit a report of an incident witnessed that involves a student or group of students make a report on behalf (and with the permission) of the student make a report of an incident you have experienced that involves a student. Further information about the Report and Support tool including why we’ve developed it and the background to the project, can be found on the dedicated staff web page (https://intranet.brookes.ac.uk/staff/report-and- support/). What happens when an incident is reported? If you report an incident involving a student and use your contact details, the Student Welfare Team will contact you to discuss your report. The team can provide guidance if you are supporting vulnerable students, and can also work directly with students in crisis. Where a student reports an incident and uses their contact details, a member of the Student Welfare Team will contact them within three working days to offer an initial appointment to discuss support available to them as well as reporting options. They also offer practical support such as helping a student access an external agency. How can you report incidents concerning another member of staff? This tool can only be used to report an incident involving a student or group of students. If you wish to raise an incident involving another member of staff, please follow the Harassment and Bullying Policy (https://www.brookes.ac.uk/staff/human-resources/equality-diversity-and- inclusion/harassment-and-bullying/). If you have questions about the Report and Support tool, please email [email protected] (http://). PTES Survey Success The results of the Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey (PTES) 2017/18 has been published with Brookes achieving 84%. This is a positive outcome at 4% above a sector average of 80%. The PTES is run by Advance HE and is the only UK higher education sector- wide survey to gain insight from taught postgraduate students about their learning and teaching experience. The satisfaction rate measures student opinion with one statement: "Overall I am satisfied with the quality of my course". The Strategic Business and Planning Office (SBPO) is in the process of analysing the raw data. Of particular note, is the fact that sampling methodology was changed slightly this year, to include only students in their final year. Improvements were gained in a number of areas including: Assessment (+6%) Skills Development (+5%) Organisation and Resources (+3% each) There is however room for improvement. Brookes has performed above sector in all areas except for Dissertation, where a gap of -2% was recorded. Advance HE added three additional measures to PTES 2018. They are: Assessment, Retention and Employability. Specific questions from within the survey were marked out and aggregated to score the measures. Brookes' scores were in the Upper Quartile for all three. A more detailed report will be circulated widely in the near future. Join inquisitive minds at the IF Festival of science and ideas A new festival, IF Oxford, will take over Oxford city-centre for eleven days this month (12-22 October 2018), building on the legacy of the Oxfordshire Science Festival, with more than 120 events and activities at 20 venues around the city and beyond. Venues include Oxford Town Hall, the Bodleian Library, the Sheldonian theatre, Oxford University Museum of Natural History, Oxford Playhouse and even a few good pubs! Designed for inquisitive minds of all ages and taking a broad approach to science and society, the festival includes both cutting edge research and investigation from world-leading academics and business alongside a refreshing new approach to ideas about humanity and the world at large, knitting the boundaries of traditional academic disciplines. Expect comedy, art, theatre and dance as well as dozens of hand-on events for families across the city at which children and adults can have a go at keyhole surgery, take away tips for becoming a forensic super-sleuth or get lost in a logic labyrinth. Researchers from Oxford Brookes will be amongst those exhibiting at the festival. These will cover a wide-range of scientific disciplines including sessions providing opportunities to: • look through the eyes of a modern paramedic • play computer games for scientific research • join the PsychScience booth which will provide a window into psychological research • learn how to break the rules in research writing (and dance!) • consider the album Spot the Difference by Squeeze and understand replication, rights and the musical work. Milly Farrell, Research Engagement Officer at Oxford Brookes, commented: "IF Oxford will be an explosion of ideas, innovations and science across the city. Here at Brookes we're delighted to be a part of this diverse and exciting 10-day programme of events. The festival provides a brilliant opportunity for our researchers to take their work out of the University and into the public realm; encouraging questions to be asked, passions to be ignited and hopefully sparking some awe and wonder along the way!" The full programme can be found on the dedicated webpages (https://if- oxford.com/). Nominations invited for the election of staff to Academic Board Nominations are invited to fill five vacancies on the Academic Board. The posts are: Two members of professional services staff (from the total of three professional services representatives): - following Sebastian Blake’s departure in July 2018 the vacancy is currently available - when Robert Drake reaches the end of his current term of office on 31 January 2019. Robert Drake is eligible to stand for re-election. The position will be vacant from 1 February 2019. One member of academic staff (from the total of six academic staff representatives), due to Peter McGunnigle reaching the end of his current term of office. The position is currently vacant. One member to represent the Heads of Professional Services Directorates due to Alison Cross’s departure. The position will be vacant from 1 January 2019. One member to represent Associate Lecturers. This is a new constituency with one position within the membership of the Board dedicated to representing this category of staff. The position is currently vacant. The Academic Board is the senior committee within the academic governance structure, and membership of the Board provides an opportunity to contribute to University decision-making at the highest level. It is also an interesting and worthwhile activity, which will enhance your CV. All members of staff, regardless of contract, are eligible to stand for election in the relevant category. The Board is keen that the membership of key University committees reflects the composition of our workforce, as well as the student population. We would therefore welcome nominations from all sections of the academic and support staff community, and particularly from under-represented groups including staff with disabilities and members of our black and minority ethnic communities. Details of eligibility criteria, as defined by the Rules for the Conduct of Elections and nomination forms are available to download from the Academic Board Google pages (https://sites.google.com/brookes.ac.uk/university-committees/academic- board?pli=1)where you will also find further details about the election process and key dates. Completed nomination forms should be returned in hard copy, or as a scanned document attached to an e-mail, (with all appropriate signatures in each case) to the Secretary of the Academic Board (John Kirk), BCK2.01, Buckley Building, Headington Campus by 4pm on Friday 19 October 2018. SRS admissions drop-in sessions – coming to a campus near you! As featured recently in Onstream (https://intranet.brookes.ac.uk/onstream/2018/sep/a-major-milestone-for- the-student-record-system/), the new SRS (Student Records System) reached a significant milestone when the admissions system, CRM Recruit, went live. The roll-out has been smooth, with no major issues experienced by applicants or by the University’s Admissions team. A few weeks on from this success, and as agreed with senior faculty staff, the SRS team are now launching the faculty review functionality of the system. Faculty and ACP (Associate College Partnership) colleagues will be provided with comprehensive

  • Modelling Religious Signalling
    1 MODELLING RELIGIOUS SIGNALLING A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Australian National University Carl Joseph Brusse February 2019 © Copyright by Carl Joseph Brusse, 2019 All Rights Reserved 2 3 This thesis is solely the work of its author. No part of it has been submitted for any degree, or is currently being submitted for any other degree. To the best of my knowledge, any help received in preparing this thesis, and all sources used, have been duly acknowledged. 4 5 for Caroline, Alida, and Isobel 6 7 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe a great debt to my supervisory panel members past and present: Kim Sterelny, Justin Bruner, Rachael Brown, and Ben Fraser, for their deeply insightful commentary and gentle corrective during the various phases of this project. In particular, Kim very much provided both the inspiration for this project and the impetus for venturing to return to philosophy for this PhD candidature. I would not have entered into this without his encouragement, and I certainly would not have made it out the other side without his support and mentorship. Thank you, Kim, for your judgment and generosity, and for your astute, necessity-sensitive application of patience (or lack thereof) when required. Justin too deserves special mention for patiently schooling me in evolutionary game theory and signalling games (despite my sometimes bizarrely misguided intuitions), and in suggesting and contributing to my first simulation projects and our joint paper at the 2016 PSA, published in Philosophy of Science. Being at the School of Philosophy at the ANU, the number of faculty and grad students (local and visiting) who have taken the time to listen and offer valuable insights would be too long to record here.
