My systematic engagement with him dates back to 2002 when I organised and chaired a public seminar given by Amar at Griffith University when I was the Director of the Australian Research Council’s Key Centre for Cultural and Media Policy. Amar also served as a member of the Centre’s Advisory Committee becoming an Honorary Professor of Griffith University.

  • Writing a Literature Review Writing Centre Learning Guide
    Writing a Literature Review Writing Centre Learning Guide At some point in your university study, you may be asked to review the literature on a certain subject or in a particular area. Such a review involves comparing different writers’ ideas or perspectives on a topic and evaluating these ideas, all in relation to your own work. A literature review differs from an article review in that it involves writing about several writers’ ideas, rather than evaluating a single article. It is also different to an annotated bibliography, which is usually a series of short reflections on individual pieces of writing. Introduction The literature review enables you and your reader to get an overview of a certain subject, so that it is clear who the main writers are in the field, and which main points need to be addressed. It should be an evaluative piece of writing, rather than just a description. This means that you need to weigh up arguments and critique ideas, rather than just providing a list of what different writers have said. It is up to you to decide what the reader needs to know on the topic, but you should only include the main pieces of writing in this area; a literature review does not need to include everything ever written on the topic. The most important thing is to show how the literature relates to your own work. You may be writing a literature review as part of a thesis, or as an exercise in itself. Whatever the reason, there are many benefits to writing a literature review.

  • Comparing Pediatric Rotations at Two University of Queensland Clinical Schools
    INNOVATIVE PROGRAM Ochsner Journal 16:62–64, 2016 Ó Academic Division of Ochsner Clinic Foundation Comparing Pediatric Rotations at Two University of Queensland Clinical Schools Julie Park, MS,1 Charles M. Kantrow, III, MD,1,2 Mark G. Coulthard, MBBS, PhD3 1The University of Queensland School of Medicine, Ochsner Clinical School, New Orleans, LA 2Department of Pediatrics, Ochsner Clinic Foundation, New Orleans, LA 3Academic Discipline of Paediatrics and Child Health, The University of Queensland School of Medicine, Brisbane, Australia Background: The University of Queensland (UQ), Ochsner Clinical School (OCS) is a partnership between Ochsner Health System in New Orleans, LA, and UQ in Brisbane, Australia. OCS medical students are trained on both continents, receiving their didactic education in Australia and their clinical education in the United States. Methods: We review the OCS experience and compare the pediatric rotations at OCS and UQ. Results: Students in the pediatric rotations in Australia and in the United States receive their clinical instruction in the real-world learning environment of hospitals and clinics. In addition, lectures, online learning modules, case-based tutorials, and rigorous assessment at the end of the rotation help prepare medical students for future contact with pediatric patients. Sixty-nine third- year OCS students and 499 fourth-year UQ students completed the pediatric rotation in 2014. In 2015, 105 third-year OCS students and approximately 400 fourth-year UQ students completed the pediatric rotation. Conclusion: In a unique educational collaboration, OCS has used e-learning and face-to-face tutorials to produce a well- rounded curriculum that assimilates global healthcare and international medicine.
