  • Assessing the Influence of First Nation Education Counsellors on First Nation Post-Secondary Students and Their Program Choices
    Assessing the Influence of First Nation Education Counsellors on First Nation Post-Secondary Students and their Program Choices by Pamela Williamson A dissertation submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Higher Education Graduate Department of Theory and Policy Studies in Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education of the University of Toronto © Copyright by Pamela Williamson (2011) Assessing the Influence of First Nation Education Counsellors on First Nation Post-Secondary Students and their Post-Secondary Program Choices Doctor of Higher Education 2011 Pamela Williamson Department of Theory and Policy Studies in Education University of Toronto Abstract The exploratory study focused on First Nation students and First Nation education counsellors within Ontario. Using an interpretative approach, the research sought to determine the relevance of the counsellors as a potentially influencing factor in the students‘ post-secondary program choices. The ability of First Nation education counsellors to be influential is a consequence of their role since they administer Post- Secondary Student Support Program (PSSSP) funding. A report evaluating the program completed by Indian and Northern Affairs Canada in 2005 found that many First Nation students would not have been able to achieve post-secondary educational levels without PSSSP support. Eight self-selected First Nation Education counsellors and twenty-nine First Nation post- secondary students participated in paper surveys, and five students and one counsellor agreed to complete a follow-up interview. The quantitative and qualitative results revealed differences in the perceptions of the two survey groups as to whether First Nation education counsellors influenced students‘ post-secondary program choices.

  • OCAD University At-Large Faculty Senator Elections 2016 List of Candidates
    OCAD University At-Large Faculty Senator Elections 2016 List of Candidates: Michelle Astrug (Faculty of Design) Michelle Astrug is a tenure-track Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Design, teaching in Graphic Design. She is applying for senate because she is interested in actively participating in University governance. Claire Brunet (Faculty of Art) Claire Brunet is a sculptor and Associate Professor in Media and installation art; Sculpture/Installation program and Fabrication Studio Bronze Casting and Digital Processes at OCAD University in Toronto. In June 2014 Brunet completed a PhD degree in Fine Arts, in the Interdisciplinary Program (INDI) at Concordia University in Montreal. Her research work explores expanded spatial boundaries and the influence of a 3D digital and technological context on the artist’s creative process in sculpture practice. Brunet’s sculpture project proposes opposing temporal forces—a 3D digital and technological spatial approach as a mode of production, in opposition to a critical discourse in regard to living species and their relation to their natural environment—which stresses the opposing values of an hypermodern society (Lipovetsky 2005). Brunet has presented projects and papers at conferences in New Zealand, Australia, Belgium, Germany, Greece and Canada. Her publications include: Exploring Data Space, in The Faculty of Art Newsletter (OCAD U, Toronto, 2012); “Extending Spatial Boundaries Through Sculpture Practices: Exploring Natural and 3D Technological Environments” in The International Journal of the Arts in Society (Illinois: CG Publishing, 2012); McLuhan and Extended Environment: Affect and Effect of a 3D Digital Medium on Sculpture Practice, in Y.

  • Does Accreditation Matter for Art & Design Schools in Canada?
    College Quarterly Winter 2013 - Volume 16 Number 1 (../index.html) Does Accreditation Matter for Art & Design Schools in Canada? Home By Reiko (Leiko) Shimizu (../index.html) Studio-based degrees in fine arts and design are not often written Contents about in higher education literature. Perhaps it is because art and design (index.html) education is misunderstood – students are viewed as “finding themselves” or have unrealistic dreams of becoming the next big artist. Perhaps the studio-based nature of the curriculum does not intrigue researchers to write about issues that concern it, or perhaps it is because anyone can call themself an artist without having an academic credential. Ten years ago, urban theorist Richard Florida coined the term the “creative class” as individuals who “do a wide variety of work in a wide variety of industries – from technology to entertainment, journalism to finance, high- end manufacturing to the arts….they share a common ethos that values creativity, individuality, difference, and merit” (Florida, 2002, para. 8). According to Florida the creative class helps build economic development; therefore, our cities should be nurtured to be more inviting to these types of individuals. This emphasis on culture and creativity is at the foundation of art and design education. Groys (2009) argues that art education is complicated and subjective; it ultimately has no rules and that “teaching art means teaching life” (as cited in Madoff, 2009, p. 27). If that is the case, how does one measure quality in a field that is viewed as so subjective? How does one define and value art and design education? One’s notion of good art and design can be vastly different from another’s, and both views may come from experts in the field.

  • Meeting the Needs of Underrepresented Populations in College Academic Upgrading Programs April 2006
    Meeting the Needs of Underrepresented Populations in College Academic Upgrading Programs April 2006 Prepared by: College Sector Committee for Adult Upgrading Funded by: Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities Acknowledgements Innovative Approaches and Promising Directions was a major research initiative which committed to a high level of inclusiveness. It gave managers, faculty, support staff, and students at all colleges the opportunity to provide input on a variety of important topics pertaining to Academic Upgrading. These included the following: “What do colleges do well?”; “Where could colleges improve?”; and most significantly, “What should colleges do next?” Achieving the objectives of such a large research project in a short time period (January to March 2006) required the commitment of many people. The College Sector Committee for Adult Upgrading (CSC) wishes to thank the 610 managers, program delivery staff, and students who participated in the 84 focus groups. They welcomed the researchers, organized the focus groups and most of all provided meaningful insights and strong recommendations about the present and future of college Academic Upgrading. The CSC would particularly like to recognize the 456 students whose input was moving and inspirational. They confirmed the CSC’s belief that Academic Upgrading does make a difference and reminded us that it is really “all about them”! Special thanks are extended to the three researchers who devoted their time and expertise to make this project a success: Stewart Kallio, Bob McIver and Lynne Wallace. They worked as a team from a distance to achieve a shared goal. The term “24/7” really does apply to the commitment that was necessary to get the work done.
