TheAvoup included practitioners and remearcher7 non- formal educators and development communicators, senior civilservants and grummets workers. Unfortunately there were very few women (only eight out of the 38 participants) snd no representatives from the Comaunist or Arab worlds. (However, one of the case studies focused on China.) The mix of participants from "conventional" development agencies on one hand and popular movements, on the other, crested an unintended, but highly productive, polarization among the parttcipants. Two informal "camps" emerged and dperated throughout the seminar. Those who identified with the "reformist/ instrumentalist" camp were essentially looking for principles and tools for using indigenous culture within conventional developmelm programmes.They agreed with soce of the criticisms of development made by the second Hb. but viewed indigenous culture as a legitimate means for reforming current development strategies. Those in the "popular education/structuralist" camp challenged the indigenous-culture-for-development idea. They felt it Mpreuented in practice a manipulation o( people's culture to serve interests opposed totheir deveIopment. They were skeptical about what could be achieved through this approach' and were more interested in working with popular organizations and groups so that the latter could decide when and how to use"indigenous" or "popular" culture within an over-all strategy of overcoming oppressive structures. 0 This mix resulted in high quality, high energy debate. It was not a typi&114 development seminar. Right from,the beginning participants dispensed with conventional pleasantries andlaunched into an openand spirited critique of the underlying assumptions and 6asic ideas inthis'field. Thiu, in turn, produced impcirtant challenges and clarifications of the"Indigenous-culture- for-developMent". idea and extsnsive discussion of the "popularculture" alternative advanced by the Latin American participants. At tho end of the seminnr there was no attempt toproduce a set of global strategies to be uniformly aklied. It was felt that

Gembloux, Belgium, Gembloux Agro-Bio Tech, University of Liège, 140 pages, 22 tables, 17 figures. Abstract Crop straw (agricultural residue) is one of the most important biomass resources in China. Crop straw is either burned in the field or collected for recycling. Open burning of crop straw releases particulate matter and gaseous pollutants, which play a key role in poor air quality, prompting heavy haze episodes during the harvest season. Such episodes threaten human health and interfere with social and economic activities. In contrast, recycling of crop straw reduces open burning and avoids its negative environmental impacts. In fact, improving the efficiency of straw use contributes to a circular economy, dedicated to reducing waste, while also making the best use of any ‘waste’ in economically viable processes that increase its value. Returning straw to agricultural fields in China is the easiest solution and the most important measure promoted by governments promising clean technologies to replace open burning.

Transborder TheorIes and ParadIgms In EthnomusIcological StudIes of Folk MusIc: VIsIons for Mo Lam in Mainland Southeast Asia ThIs talk explores the nature and IdentIty of tradItIonal musIc, prIncIpally khaen musIc and lam performIng arts In northeastern ThaIland (Isan) and Laos. Mo lam refers to an expert of lam singIng who Is routInely accompanIed by a mo khaen, a skIlled player of the bamboo panpIpe. DurIng 1972 and 1973, Dr. ChonpaIrot conducted fIeld studIes on Mo lam in northeast Thailand and Laos with Dr. Terry E. Miller. For many generatIons, LaotIan and Thai villagers have crossed the natIonal border constItuted by the Mekong RIver to visit relatIves and to partIcipate In regular festivals. However, ChonpaIrot and Miller’s fieldwork took place durIng the fInal stages of the VIetnam War which had begun more than a decade earlIer. DurIng theIr fIeldwork they collected cassette recordings of lam singIng from LaotIan radIo statIons In VIentIane and Savannakhet. ChonpaIrot also conducted fieldwork among Laotian artists living in Thai refugee camps. After the VIetnam War ended, many more Laotians who had worked for the AmerIcans fled to ThaI refugee camps. ChonpaIrot delIneated Mo lam regIonal melodIes coupled to specIfic IdentItIes In each locality of the music’s origin. He chose Lam Khon Savan from southern Laos for hIs dIssertation topIc, and also collected data from senIor Laotian mo lam tradItion-bearers then resIdent In the United States and France.

  • Alphabet Knowledge Children Need Many Opportunities to Experience
    Alphabet Knowledge Children need many opportunities to experience print in a fun way, in conjunction with daily literacy activities. In this way, they become familiar with the letters of the alphabet. Letter recognition and identification are necessary before letter-sound associations can be made. In fact, knowledge of the alphabet, specifically letter naming, is one of the best predictors of early reading success (Adams, 1990). Initially, children learn to sing the “Alphabet Song,” and recognize familiar letters (e.g., letters in their names). Then, they begin to identify those letters, and finally, some children learn to form those letters. In other words, when learning letters, children should be encouraged to recognize the letter (show me the letter p), identify the letter (tell me the name of that letter), and form the letter (practice writing the letter shape). Letters can then be associated with the sounds they represent, and attempts at writing words (sound-letter correspondences) should be encouraged. Children’s names, stories, songs, poems, and environmental print can be used to introduce the letters of the alphabet. Any logical sequence can be used. Usually, common letters are used first, followed by less common letters. However, teachers may wish to use this rationale when deciding on a specific sequence: 9 Begin with letters that occur in children’s names 9 Begin with letters that occur frequently in children’s books 9 Begin with letters that are easier for children to say 9 Avoid visual confusion by separating letters that appear similar (e.g., b/d, p/q, m/n/u, f/t, i/j) 9 Avoid auditory confusion by separating letters that sound similar (e.g., d/w, a/h, j/g, c/s) 9 Separate letters that represent voiced and unvoiced sounds (e.g., b/p, g/k, d/t, v/f, z/s) 9 Introduce vowels gradually, recognizing both long and short vowel sounds (i.e., letter name – Amy/Eve – and special sound – Andy/Emily) Note: A suggested sequence: m s t a f b n i p k l o d g h u c w r e y j v z x q While using alphabet poster, charts, songs, stories, and poems..

    The Dialectics of Virtuosity: Dance in the People’s Republic of China, 1949-2009 by Emily Elissa Wilcox A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Joint Doctor of Philosophy with the University of California, San Francisco in Medical Anthropology of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Xin Liu, Chair Professor Vincanne Adams Professor Alexei Yurchak Professor Michael Nylan Professor Shannon Jackson Spring 2011 Abstract The Dialectics of Virtuosity: Dance in the People’s Republic of China, 1949-2009 by Emily Elissa Wilcox Joint Doctor of Philosophy with the University of California, San Francisco in Medical Anthropology University of California, Berkeley Professor Xin Liu, Chair Under state socialism in the People’s Republic of China, dancers’ bodies became important sites for the ongoing negotiation of two paradoxes at the heart of the socialist project, both in China and globally. The first is the valorization of physical labor as a path to positive social reform and personal enlightenment. The second is a dialectical approach to epistemology, in which world-knowing is connected to world-making. In both cases, dancers in China found themselves, their bodies, and their work at the center of conflicting ideals, often in which the state upheld, through its policies and standards, what seemed to be conflicting points of view and directions of action. Since they occupy the unusual position of being cultural workers who labor with their bodies, dancers were successively the heroes and the victims in an ever unresolved national debate over the value of mental versus physical labor.
