Musical Culture & Pedagogy: A Study of Middle School Students in Chongqing

The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the music education provided for Chinese students between the ages of eleven to fourteen, and how these students are engaging with music in their culture. By using firsthand observation of classrooms, schools, and public venues in Chongqing, the researchers will collect and organize data regarding the music curriculum, availability and condition of musical instruments, teaching techniques and philosophies, and the prevalence of music in students’ daily lives. It is expected that this observational research will reveal some notable differences in music education and music pervasiveness for students in China, as compared to what is common in Canada. Ideally, observations of key distinctions of Chinese music education and the surrounding music culture (as it relates to senior elementary students) will offer insight into improving the quality of teaching music in Canada.

Récits de l’expérience interculturelle des candidats enseignants canadiens en Chine

Cette étude explorera des perspectives narratives issues de l’expérience interculturelle des candidats enseignants canadiens à Chongqing, en Chine, de mars 2015 à juin 2015, et s’appuiera sur les expériences des participants lors du programme d’apprentissage réciproque de la formation des enseignants entre l’Université de Windsor et la Southwest University China. Les enquêtes sur le voyage d’apprentissage des étudiants canadiens en Chine découvriront comment ils réagissent et réagissent, leurs convictions personnelles et professionnelles, s’ils traversent des difficultés et des tensions, comment ils font face à ces difficultés et ces tensions, et ce qu’ils ont retiré de ce voyage d’apprentissage. En mettant l’accent sur l’importance personnelle et professionnelle des connaissances et de la compréhension interculturelles par les étudiants enseignants canadiens et une approche narrative d’enquête, les étudiants participants pourront révéler leurs perspectives interculturelles changeantes et leurs perspectives mondiales croissantes tout au long de ce voyage d’études. Leurs croyances personnelles, avec des notions multiculturelles et inclusives, qui peuvent être accompagnées de luttes et de tensions interculturelles entre le Canada et la Chine, devraient se manifester dans cette recherche.

Classroom Management: Decoding the Strategies of Chinese Elementary Teachers

This research aims to answer the question: What classroom management strategies do Chinese elementary teachers use in order to obtain student attention? Chinese classroom sizes are much larger than traditional Canadian classrooms, so how do teachers control such great amounts of students? During a three-month stay in Chongqing, China qualitative research methods will be utilized to collect data. Naturalistic observation will be conducted and field notes will be analyzed in order to decode classroom management strategies. Ultimately, these data will be compared to Canadian classroom management strategies and the findings could foster a much improved learning environment here at home.

Comparing Teacher Focused and Inquiry Based Learning Across Cultures

This study involves a comparison of cross cultural observations of students in grade 3 and 4 level in Chongqing, China and Windsor, Ontario. The effectiveness of inquiry based learning during reading and writing activities during Language Arts lessons will be assessed through a daily data entry of what strategy is more effective. First, it is teacher focused, where the teacher makes a lesson, plans it and stays within specific guidelines, and the second method called inquiry based, where the teacher deviates from the lesson, depending on where the students want to go, and what questions arise. The data can help Canada to see different strategies for a lesson and to allow for deeper consideration of traditional teaching.

Narrative Inquiry into Chinese Pre-service Teacher Education and Induction in West China through Cross-cultural Teacher Development

The proposed research is contextualized in the long term Teacher Education Reciprocal Learning Program, which is now part of the SSHRC Partnership Grant Project. This study explores the induction process and experiential stories of five Chinese beginning teachers, from their cross-cultural learning experience in Canada to being beginning teachers in West China. It identifies challenges and strategies, which novice teachers have encountered in their first three years of teaching in West China. Deep understanding of how pre-service teacher candidates try to educate themselves about the world and cultures around them via cross-cultural learning experiences and how they go through the induction process are be explored. Particular attention will be paid to the relationship between teachers’ cross-cultural experience and their teaching methods, teaching practices, and thoughts and beliefs about teaching and learning.

Teachers’ reciprocal learning in transnational professional communitiesbetween Ontario and Shanghai secondary schools

Le projet de recherche proposé explore deux communautés d’enseignants transnationales entre les écoles secondaires de l’Ontario et de Shanghai. L’apprentissage professionnel interculturel des enseignants est au cœur de l’étude. Pour comprendre comment, pourquoi et ce que les enseignants apprennent les uns des autres, le projet doit recueillir des données des deux pays. Pendant son séjour en Chine, la collecte de données sera effectuée sur deux sites à Shanghai. Les données incluront des politiques de développement professionnel des enseignants, des comptes de rencontres Skype entre les écoles sœurs, ainsi que des entrevues entre enseignants et directeurs. Des documents de politique au niveau scolaire et municipal seront recueillis. Environ dix éducateurs, incluant enseignants, directeurs et directeurs adjoints, seront interviewés dans chaque école participante. Les données seront comparées à celles obtenues auprès des écoles canadiennes.

Feasibility Assessment of Treatment Wetlands for Northern Riverbank Stabilization: An Exploratory Hydrodynamic Study of the Nechako River

The Nechako River in Prince George, British Columbia, suffers from eroding riverbanks and contaminated sediments left behind by past industrial activities. This project will investigate whether treatment wetlands, which are engineered ecosystems that use plants and natural processes to clean water and stabilize soil, could help address both problems at once. The student will use computer modeling software to study how water flows along the riverbanks and identify locations where treatment wetlands might work well. The project includes dedicated training on cold-climate treatment wetlands, allowing the student to gain leading-edge knowledge in an emerging field critical to Canada and other northern regions. For Canada, this research advances the development of low-cost, nature-based water infrastructure suited to northern communities, many of which face combined challenges of aging systems, legacy contamination, and limited resources for conventional engineering solutions. For UNBC, this work provides the initial site assessment needed before designing a pilot wetland system, directly supporting the university’s ongoing research on cold-climate water treatment. For Tecnológico de Monterrey, the collaboration extends their river modeling expertise into northern environments and establishes a partnership that can lead to future student exchanges and joint research projects between the two institutions.

Traitement et suivi de la récupération des symptômes de lésions cérébrales post-traumatiques (TCC)

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is a significant health problem mainly because of its plausible prolonged sequelae and lack of objective measures for recovery. There are usually some disabling persistent post-TBI symptoms (mostly neurological) that do not respond to the current clinical and physical rehabilitation. This proposal aims to investigate the effect of a promising treatment for persistent post TBI symptoms, and to monitor TBI patient’s recovery by an objective technique along with standard clinical assessments. The treatment tool is the application of repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex of the brain. The treatment efficacy and monitoring TBI patients’ recovery will be objectively assessed using Electrovestibulography; this will be in parallel with clinical and standard assessments. The proposed research has the potential to lead to a treatment and objective monitoring protocol that would provide a much faster, more economical and more efficient treatment method than the current techniques.

Dubplates and Sound System Cultures

In the 1920s, many companies popularized the use of aluminum discs coated with nitrocellulose lacquer for instantaneous audio disc recording. In particular, the American company Presto produced a range of discs, cutting lathes, cutter-heads and other equipment, all of which served to encourage home audio recording, as well as the unexpected and experimental use of sound recording equipment. From the 1930s-1950s, a consistent model in the Presto catalog was the 6N semi-professional disc recorder. After being discarded from mainstream commercial uses from the late 1940s onwards, this low-cost yet reliable disc cutting lathe played an important role in development of the Jamaican music industry, being used in the studio of the most famous Jamaican disc cutter King Tubby. In Jamaica, the ability to cut discs on demand led to distinctive forms of anti-colonial sonic resistance in the form of dubplates (i.e. one-off lathe cut records). This research project employs media archaeology (Huhtamo and Parikka, 2011) to assess archival sources in dialogue with contemporary knowledge from disc cutters, and in doing so, brings attention to the buried stories of disc cutting technologies and dubplates in relation to Jamaican sound system culture and its wider reach in Canada and the UK.
