    Education and Skills Committee Teacher Workforce Planning Inquiry School Staff other than teachers / headteachers Treatment of evidence The Committee agreed to undertake a short inquiry into teacher workforce planning (and associated issues with school staffing).The Committee issued a call for views running for just over two weeks to inform the evidence sessions on Teacher Workforce Planning. The information was requested in a questionnaire and we have received a large number of responses. These are the responses from school staff who are not teachers or senior management As these submissions are sensitive in nature they have been anonymised wherever requested and the names of teaching staff have been removed, as that may lead to individuals working in schools or local authorities being identified. All those submitting were sent a message to make clear that their submissions would be published unless they stated otherwise.

    INLS 551: History of Libraries and Other Information-Related Cultural Institutions Fall 2014 – MW, 9:30-10:45 AM. Manning, 214 INSTRUCTOR Ericka Patillo, Lecturer. [email protected]. Office hours: Tuesdays, 11 AM-12 PM, and by appointment, in Manning, rm 306 Course Description: The history of cultural institutions related to information from earliest times to the present day. Includes specific institutions, trends in service and facilities, and individuals important in the development of these institutions. This semester we will focus on the historical development of American librarianship, with special reference to the relationship of library institutions to their contemporary social, economic, cultural and political environments. Key topics and themes: • Intertwined development of different types of American library organizations, such as public libraries, school libraries or media centers, academic libraries, archives, and special or corporate libraries. • Differing attention of libraries and librarians to various American social groups over time, as defined by age/maturity, gender/sexuality, race/ethnicity, occupation/employment, class/wealth, or education/training. • Development of librarianship as a profession, including social, functional, technological, and gender divisions of labor. • Evolution of technologies and techniques for information management within libraries and outside of libraries, from cataloging systems and publishing processes to desktop computers and internet-worked telecommunications. • Relationship of librarianship to other social, cultural, and political-economic processes, especially in the areas of intellectual freedom, social control and censorship, cultural pluralism, democratic principles, lifelong education, and the "free marketplace of ideas." Each class will be structured through a mix of lecture and discussion, with some components led by the professor and some portions the responsibility of students.

  • John Chassar Moir (1900–1977) [1]
    Published on The Embryo Project Encyclopedia (https://embryo.asu.edu) John Chassar Moir (1900–1977) [1] By: Haskett, Dorothy Ciardullo, Patsy Keywords: fistulas [2] John Chassar Moir lived in the UK during the twentieth century and helped develop techniques to improve the health of pregnant women. Moir helped to discover compounds that doctors could administer to women after childbirth to prevent life-threatening blood loss. Those compounds included the ergot alkaloid called ergometrine, also called ergonovine, and d-lysergic acid beta- propanolamide. Moir tested ergometrine in postpartum patients and documented that it helped prevent or lessen postpartum hemorrhage in women. Moir also developed methods to treat tears between the bladder and the vagina [3], called vesico-vaginal fistulas, that occur due to complications of childbirth, and that cause urinary incontinence in women who have them. Moir was born in the county of Angus, Scotland, on 21 March 1900, the fourth and youngest child to Isabella Pirie and John Moir. In Angus, the younger Moir grew up in the coastal town of Montrose. His father was a wine merchant who owned a grocery store called William Moir and Sons. Moir studied science and German language during his education at the Montrose Academy in Angus. Moir studied medicine and received his Bachelor of Medicine (MBBS) and Bachelor of Surgery (MBChB) in 1922 from the University of Edinburgh [4] in Edinburgh, Scotland. After receiving his degrees, he studied abroad in Vienna, Austria, and in Berlin, Germany, where he continued his study of German, and at the Johns Hopkins Hospital [5] in the United States.
