ISSN 1171 1353 Item number 91/332 4 Introduction Tend koutou katoa. This journal is the first of a series to be published by Learning Media. It complements the handbooks Language for Learning, New Voices, and Te Kohao o te Ngira, providing an on-going forum for the celebration of cultural diversity and an examination of the issues which concern learners and teachers in multicultural schools and in classes for new migrants at the adult level. It continues the themes developed by its predecessor, the journal New Settlers and Multicultural Education Issues, but with a more specifically education-oriented focus, and more clearly targeted to the full range ofeducational institutions. The objectives of this journal are: to provide information and research relating to the teaching of English to speakers of other languages (ESOL), to community language and bilingual teaching, and to first language maintenance; to discuss cross-cultural issues in education; to act as a forum for the exchange of practical ideas and experiences for teachers involved in ESOL and community language teaching; to provide a chance for members of minority ethnic communities to express their views and concerns on issues of education and schooling. Several themes link up through the articles in this issue. Two contributors, Trinh Thi Sao and Sabine Fenton, are language teachers working in the area of health education. Conversely, the article by Tua Su'a was part of research for the Advanced Diploma of Nursing. This demonstrates very clearly that language is not just a classroom exercise but an integral part of everyday life, and that language is also closely bound up with the expression of identity, with the whole person. Other articles look at the relationship between teacher and learner, and between schools and parents; at the teaching of community languages within the school system; and at some of the critical factors which make for success or failure for students from minority ethnic groups. Readers are invited to submit articles to be considered for publication, in line with the objectives listed above. The next issue will appear in the first term of 1992. Please send articles to Leith Wallace, Editor Many Voices, Learning Media, Box 3293, Wellington.

  • Virtual Assyria Dan Lundberg
    Virtual Assyria Dan Lundberg (The content of this site is based on data collected 1996-1997) Illustration: Ann Ahlbom Sundqvist Introduction (2010) Some comments on the re-publishing of this study of Assyrian cultural activities on the Internet – more than 10 years later. This study is based on fieldwork and other data collections that I conducted during the second half of the 1990s. I can truly say that I was impressed by all the web enthusiasts that were striving to create a transnational Assyrian community – a "cyber nation" on the Internet. However, the development has been incredibly fast during the last decades and today (2010) it is hard to imagine the almost science fictional impression that ideas about cyber communities gave back in the nineties. When looking back at the development of the Internet it seems as if the "cyber space" that was announced on the home page of Nineveh On-line 1997 has become less virtual over the years. Today we are living in both worlds – using the Internet for shopping, reading, finding information, communication, playing, dating, etc, etc.The boarder between virtual and real often appears to be diffuse and in fact, not so important any more. Svenskt visarkiv shut down this website in 2008 because we felt we could no longer guarantee that all links were relevant and functioning. The lifespan of articles online can sometimes be quite short. However, we have received many requests to publish it again, an indication that the content is still regarded as important. This new edition has some corrected links and dead links have been deleted, but otherwise the text has not been changed at all.

  • Kinleith Transformation
    Improving Maintenance Operation through Transformational Outsourcing Jacqueline Ming-Shih Ye MIT Sloan School of Management and the Department of Engineering Systems 50 Memorial Drive, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02142 408-833-0345 [email protected] Abstract Outsourcing maintenance to third-party contractors has become an increasingly popular option for manufacturers to achieve tactical and/or strategic objectives. Though simple in concept, maintenance outsourcing is difficult in execution, especially in a cost-sensitive environment. This project examines the Full Service business under ABB Ltd to understand the key factors that drive the success of an outsourced maintenance operation. We present a qualitative causal loop diagram developed based on the case study of Kinleith Pulp and Paper Mill in New Zealand. The diagram describes the interconnections among various technical, economic, relationship, and humanistic factors and shows how cost-cutting initiatives can frequently undermine labor relationship and tip the plant into the vicious cycle of reactive, expensive work practices. The model also explains how Kinleith achieved a remarkable turnaround under ABB, yielding high performance and significant improvements in labor relations. A case study of Tasman Pulp and Paper Mill provides a contrasting case where success has been more difficult. Results point to the importance of creating sufficient resources (“slack”) to implement improvement activities and pace implementation based on pre-existing dynamics on site. Introduction From multi-million dollar IT systems and Lean methodology to smaller-scale initiatives around organizational design or human resource development, companies continue to search for ways to better performance. Outsourcing, once seen as pure cost-reduction, is increasingly viewed as an option with considerable strategic value.
