  • Narrative Insights Into Education Eleanor Peeler [email protected]
    Windows into the past: narrative insights into education Eleanor Peeler [email protected] WINDOWS INTO THE PAST: NARRATIVE INSIGHTS INTO EDUCATION Eleanor Peeler University of Melbourne, Melbourne Abstract The intent of this paper is to stress the importance of narrative and story, and to share the experience of opening the windows of memory to look into the past and uncover fascinating and valuable histories as portrayed in a current study. The longitudinal study of an educator follows his life story and his role in education. Set in Victoria, it explores the founding of the State’s education system and highlights progressive developments. The life story reveals the history of the system and evolving philosophies that influenced the life of the subject. The study considers the philosophies and how they influenced the subject’s thinking and actions. Using windows as a metaphor, Part 1 of the paper includes discussion regarding the appropriacy of narrative as a research tool, considers the notion of memory and introduces the research subject. Part 2 gives insights into three distinct periods and the part played by three men who guided Victoria’s educational development and growth throughout the twentieth century. In relation to each is a brief discussion of their influence on the career of the research subject. Windows into the past While the story of the narratives holds interest, the process of narrative inquiry is a valuable tool for research. The intent of this paper is to stress the importance of narrative and story, and to share the experience of opening the windows of memory to look into the past and uncover fascinating and valuable histories.

  • Grounds, Boyd and the Philip House
    4. Form Follows Formula: Grounds, Boyd and the Philip House Figure 4.1 Philip House, view from north-east Photograph: Ben Wrigley, 2011 John Philip was brought to Canberra as part of Frankel’s ambitious postwar recruitment program, and was appointed head of a new agricultural physics group at the CSIRO. Regarded as Australia’s leading environmental physicist, he was elected a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science in 1967. His wife, Frances (‘Fay’), was an accomplished artist who was related to the Boyds via the Mills and à Becketts, and had attended the Murrumbeena State School in Victoria with Mary and Arthur Boyd. Many of Frances’s portraits of Australia’s leading scientists and academics—including Sir Mark Oliphant, Doug Waterhouse, John Jaeger, William Rogers, Patrick Moran and Manning Clark—are held in the collections of the Australian Academy of Science and The Australian National University. The Philip House, at 42 Vasey Crescent, Campbell, is one of three adjacent houses by Grounds, Romberg and Boyd that are known collectively as the Vasey Crescent Group. The other two houses in the group are the Blakers House and the Griffing House. Grounds and Boyd were both involved with these houses. All three were designed by Grounds, who arranged initial briefings, recorded 101 Experiments in Modern Living the clients’ requirements and prepared sketches from late 1959 through to early 1960. Boyd met with the clients in January 1960, and took control of the houses from May of that year as Grounds prepared for a three-month overseas trip.1 The Philip House is important for two reasons.

  • The Relation Between Cesarean Birth and Child Cognitive Development Received: 10 March 2017 Cain Polidano1, Anna Zhu1 & Joel C
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The relation between cesarean birth and child cognitive development Received: 10 March 2017 Cain Polidano1, Anna Zhu1 & Joel C. Bornstein 2 Accepted: 16 August 2017 This is the frst detailed study of the relation between cesarean birth and child cognitive development. Published: xx xx xxxx We measure diferences in child cognitive performance at 4 to 9 years of age between cesarean-born and vaginally-born children (n = 3,666) participating in the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children (LSAC). LSAC is a nationally representative birth cohort surveyed biennially. Using multivariate regression, we control for a large range of confounders related to perinatal risk factors and the socio- economic advantage associated with cesarean-born children. Across several measures, we fnd that cesarean-born children perform signifcantly below vaginally-born children, by up to a tenth of a standard deviation in national numeracy test scores at age 8–9. Estimates from a low-risk sub-sample and lower-bound analysis suggest that the relation is not spuriously related to unobserved confounding. Lower rates of breastfeeding and adverse child and maternal health outcomes that are associated with cesarean birth are found to explain less than a third of the cognitive gap, which points to the importance of other mechanisms such as disturbed gut microbiota. The fndings underline the need for a precautionary approach in responding to requests for a planned cesarean when there are no apparent elevated risks from vaginal birth. Cesarean sections can save lives, but rates well above the World Health Organization’s recommended 15% ceiling in most developed countries suggest that many procedures are unnecessary1.
