    ‘Can’t be what you can’t see’: The Transition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Students into higher education Literature Review 2014 Fremantle Broome Sydney Cover Artwork: ‘Seeing Country’ by Yangkana Laurel Yangkana Laurel is a Walmajarri artist and educator from the Kadjina Community in the Kimberley region of Western Australia on the edge of the Great Sandy Desert - part of Millijidee Station. Along with her sisters, brothers and mothers, Yangkana advocated to set up the remote Wulungarra Community School. Yangkana’s commitment to education in this small community is replicated across the many universities we visited and encapsulated in the innovative models that support more Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students to transition to higher education. ‘Can’t be what you can’t see’: The Transition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Students into higher education Literature Review 2014 The University of Notre Dame Australia (UNDA) Southern Cross University (SCU) Batchelor Institute of Indigenous Tertiary Education (BIITE) Project Leaders: Professor Lyn Henderson-Yates (UNDA), Professor Patrick Dodson (UNDA), Professor Marguerite Maher (UNDA), Project Management: Bruce Gorring (UNDA), Sue Thomas (UNDA) Project Team Members: Stephen Kinnane (UNDA), Dr Judith Wilks (SCU), Katie Wilson (SCU), Terri Hughes (BIITE), Sue Thomas (UNDA), Professor Neil Drew (UNDA), Dr Keith McNaught (UNDA), Dr Kevin Watson (UNDA) Report Authors: Dr Judith Wilks (SCU), Katie Wilson (SCU) “Can’t be what you can’t see”: The Transition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students into higher education: Literature Review: 20/12/13 OLT ID SI11-2138 (UNDA; SCU; BIITE) Support for the production of this report/publication has been provided by the Australian Government Office for Learning and Teaching.

  • When Fear Is Substituted for Reason: European and Western Government Policies Regarding National Security 1789-1919
    WHEN FEAR IS SUBSTITUTED FOR REASON: EUROPEAN AND WESTERN GOVERNMENT POLICIES REGARDING NATIONAL SECURITY 1789-1919 Norma Lisa Flores A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2012 Committee: Dr. Beth Griech-Polelle, Advisor Dr. Mark Simon Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Michael Brooks Dr. Geoff Howes Dr. Michael Jakobson © 2012 Norma Lisa Flores All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Beth Griech-Polelle, Advisor Although the twentieth century is perceived as the era of international wars and revolutions, the basis of these proceedings are actually rooted in the events of the nineteenth century. When anything that challenged the authority of the state – concepts based on enlightenment, immigration, or socialism – were deemed to be a threat to the status quo and immediately eliminated by way of legal restrictions. Once the façade of the Old World was completely severed following the Great War, nations in Europe and throughout the West started to revive various nineteenth century laws in an attempt to suppress the outbreak of radicalism that preceded the 1919 revolutions. What this dissertation offers is an extended understanding of how nineteenth century government policies toward radicalism fostered an environment of increased national security during Germany’s 1919 Spartacist Uprising and the 1919/1920 Palmer Raids in the United States. Using the French Revolution as a starting point, this study allows the reader the opportunity to put events like the 1848 revolutions, the rise of the First and Second Internationals, political fallouts, nineteenth century imperialism, nativism, Social Darwinism, and movements for self-government into a broader historical context.

  • Chance and Contingency in the Evolution of Man, Mind and Morals in Charles Kingsley's W

HALE Department of the History of Science University of Oklahoma 601 Elm Ave, Rm. 610 Norman, OK 73019 USA E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. The nineteenth century theologian, author and poet Charles Kingsley was a notable populariser of Darwinian evolution. He championed Darwin’s cause and that of honesty in science for more than a decade from 1859 to 1871. Kingsley’s interpretation of evolution shaped his theology, his politics and his views on race. The relationship between men and apes set the context for Kingsley’s consideration of these issues. Having defended Darwin for a decade in 1871 Kingsley was dismayed to read Darwin’s account of the evolution of morals in Descent of Man. He subsequently distanced himself from Darwin’s conclusions even though he remained an ardent evolutionist until his death in 1875.

  • Rosetta Head Well and Whaling Station Site PLACE NO.: 26454
    South Australian HERITAGE COUNCIL SUMMARY OF STATE HERITAGE PLACE REGISTER ENTRY Entry in the South Australian Heritage Register in accordance with the Heritage Places Act 1993 NAME: Rosetta Head Well and Whaling Station Site PLACE NO.: 26454 ADDRESS: Franklin Parade, Encounter Bay, SA 5211 Uncovered well 23 November 2017 Site works complete June 2019 Source DEW Source DEW Cultural Safety Warning Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples should be aware that this document may contain images or names of people who have since passed away. STATEMENT OF HERITAGE SIGNIFICANCE The Rosetta Head Well and Whaling Station Site is on the lands and waters of the Ramindjeri people of the lower Fleurieu Peninsula, who are a part of the Ngarrindjeri Nation. The site represents a once significant early industry that no longer exists in South Australia. Founded by the South Australian Company in 1837 and continually operating until 1851, it was the longest-running whaling station in the State. It played an important role in the establishment of the whaling industry in South Australia as a prototype for other whaling stations and made a notable contribution to the fledgling colony’s economic development. The Rosetta Head Whaling Station is also an important contact site between European colonists and the Ramindjeri people. To Ramindjeri people, the whale is known as Kondli (a spiritual being), and due to their connection and knowledge, a number of Ramindjeri were employed at the station as labourers and boat crews. Therefore, Rosetta Head is one of the first places in South Australia where European and Aboriginal people worked side by side.

  • A Collaborative History of Social Innovation in South Australia
    Hawke Research Institute for Sustainable Societies University of South Australia St Bernards Road Magill South Australia 5072 Australia www.unisa.edu.au/hawkeinstitute © Rob Manwaring and University of South Australia 2008 A COLLABORATIVE HISTORY OF SOCIAL INNOVATION IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA Rob Manwaring∗ Abstract In this paper I outline a collaborative history of social innovation in South Australia, a state that has a striking record of social innovation. What makes this history so intriguing is that on the face of it, South Australia would seem an unlikely location for such experimentation. This paper outlines the main periods of innovation. Appended to it is the first attempt to collate all these social innovations in one document. This paper is unique in that its account of the history of social innovation has been derived after public consultation in South Australia, and is a key output from Geoff Mulgan’s role as an Adelaide Thinker in Residence.1 The paper analyses why, at times, South Australia appears to have punched above its weight as a leader in social innovation. Drawing on Giddens’ ‘structuration’ model, the paper uses South Australian history as a case study to determine how far structure and/or agency can explain the main periods of social innovation. Introduction South Australia has a great and rich (albeit uneven) history of social innovation, and has at times punched above its weight. What makes this history so intriguing is that on the face of it, South Australia is quite an unlikely place for such innovation. South Australia is a relatively new entity; it has a relatively small but highly urbanised population, and is geographically isolated from other Australian urban centres and other developed nations.

  • A Dictionary of Diyari, South Australia
    A Dictionary of Diyari, South Australia Peter K. Austin A Dictionary of Diyari, South Australia © 2013 Peter K. Austin Department of Linguistics, SOAS, University of London Russell Square, London WC1H 0XG United Kingdom [email protected] Preface Diyari is an Australian Aboriginal language spoken by a few Dieri people living at various places in the north-east of South Australia and in Broken Hill, New South Wales. Although the language is no longer in regular use among Dieri families there is still a lot of knowledge about the language held by community members who are keen to see it preserved and passed on to younger generations. This book is a draft reference dictionary of Diyari based primarily on materials collected during my fieldwork on the language in 1974-77 and subsequent research. A companion grammar is also available, and a text collection is in preparation. This book will be revised and extended as further work on the language is undertaken, based on recordings made by myself and Luise Hercus in the 1970s, together with new materials provided by current speakers and Dieri community members. I dedicate this book to the Dieri karna. London and Canberra January 2013 Acknowledgements This study would not have been possible without the interest and help of the speakers of Diyari I worked with in the 1970s, together with members of the Dieri Aboriginal Corporation since 2010. I owe a particular debt of gratitude to the late Ben Murray, Rosa Warren and the Frieda Merrick who spent so much time teaching me Diyari and sharing with me their memories of “the old days”.
