The art of the seminar and the power of small things

ABSTRACT Jeffrey Goldfarb’s intellectual engagement in the public sphere is rooted in his commitment to the seminar as a unique form of pedagogy, social interaction, and democratic deliberation. His skill around a table is, however, not only a craft that has been honed in the classroom; Goldfarb’s art of the seminar has also travelled geographically and virtually onto various platforms. His commitment to dialogue continues to serve as a way in which individuals can engage with one another across differences. From his early fascination with conversations around kitchen tables in communist Poland to the Democracy and Diversity Summer Schools that he organised with colleagues while teaching at the New School, from the virtual forums of Deliberately Considered, Public Seminar and The Democracy Seminar to his current professorship at the American University of Afghanistan, Goldfarb invites faculty and students to engage with one another to think critically about the pressing problems of our increasingly fractured world.

Implementation and Evaluation of Risk Communication Regarding Residual Pesticides

In this study, a public seminar on risk communication methods was conducted to raise awareness and disseminate accurate knowledge about residual pesticides to consumers. Additionally, surveys on consumer awareness were conducted on the attendees before and after the seminar to evaluate its effectiveness. Responses were obtained from 84 participants. The paired t-test was used to analyze the changes in awareness before and after the seminar. The results showed significant improvements in "trust in the government" and "understanding of residual pesticides." Furthermore, step-wise multiple regression analysis was performed to explore the factors influencing satisfaction with the risk communication seminar, and the item "understanding of the safety of residual pesticides in food" was extracted. Understanding food safety is a crucial concern in daily life for consumers. To enable consumers to have an accurate understanding of food risks and make appropriate judgments, it is essential to continue implementing risk communication and conveying information about food safety and security in the future.

Lessons Learned in Piloting a Digital Personalized COVID-19 "Radar" on a University Campus.

Health authorities encouraged the use of digital contact tracing mobile applications (apps) during the COVID-19 pandemic, but the level of adoption was low because apps offered few direct benefits to counterbalance risks to personal privacy. Adoption of such apps could improve if they provided benefits to users. NOVID (COVID-19 Radar), a smartphone app, provided users with personalized data on social proximity of COVID-19 cases and exposed contacts. We analyzed uptake of NOVID at the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) during the 2020-2021 academic year. Data included anonymous NOVID users who self-identified with Georgia Tech and their first- and second-degree network contacts. NOVID achieved 13%-30% adoption at Georgia Tech. Because of technical challenges, adoption waned after an initial peak. The largest increases in adoption (from 41 to 3704) followed administrative promotion of NOVID. Adoption increased modestly (from 2512 to 2661) after faculty- and student-led promotion, such as distribution of door hangers and a public seminar. Two-thirds of on-campus NOVID users were connected to a large network of other users, enabling them to receive data on social proximity of COVID-19 cases and exposed contacts. Network cohesion was observed to emerge rapidly when adoption rates passed just 10%, consistent with estimates from network theory. The key lesson learned in this case study is that top-down administrative promotion outperforms bottom-up grassroots promotion. Relatively high levels of adoption and network cohesion, despite technical challenges during the Georgia Tech pilot of NOVID, illustrate the promise of digital contact tracing when apps provide privacy and inherently beneficial personalized data to their users, especially in regions where Google Apple Exposure Notification is not available.

Meeting reports

Metabolism of ageing was a joint venture between the Biochemical Society and British Society for Research on Ageing (BSRA). Originally planned to be held in Birmingham in 2020, the on-going pandemic necessitated a move to a virtual format, with emphasis on providing a forum for early-career researchers to present and network. We had over 100 delegates join the online talks and networking sessions from across the globe including Australia and the West Coast of the USA, despite the time differences.Over the course of the 3 days of the meeting, we heard many fascinating talks from both junior and more senior scientists on how changes in metabolism impact on health during ageing. The meeting opened with a plenary talk by Nektarios Tavernarakis from the FORTH Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology in Crete, Greece, on the role of dysfunctional mitochondria in ageing and neurodegeneration. Sessions then followed on cellular metabolism and ageing, metabolism and the ageing immune system, metabolism and the ageing brain, and nutrition, exercise and interventions that impact on metabolism and ageing. A second plenary talk by John Speakman from the University of Aberdeen/Chinese Academy of Sciences focused on factors that confound metabolic studies on ageing in mammals such as body temperature and body composition.Alongside the more traditional format of a scientific meeting, we also ran an interactive early career researcher (ECR) session on public engagement and a public seminar on intergenerational care. Both events were well received with great feedback from the attendees. We also heard from our meeting sponsors, BBSRC, about UKRI funding opportunities for ageing research.Prizes were awarded for the two best posters presented at the meeting and the best ECR oral presentation was awarded the Korenchevsky Prize from the BSRA. The standard of student/ECR presentations was extremely high. All the talks stimulated interesting and lively discussions and it was great to see so many participants actively engaged in the virtual networking space. And some of the tools used to encourage ECR participation in discussions in this virtual setting, e.g., anonymous online questions, will be actively encouraged in future in-person meetings.

Introduction

This thematic issue arises from the symposium ‘Tradition and Innovation in Franco-Belgian Bande dessinée’, held at the University of Leicester on 13 March 2020. Over three panels with a respective focus on ‘Revisiting the Classics’, ‘Contemporary Perspectives’, and ‘Reshaping Franco-Belgian Bande dessinée’, the symposium brought out a variety of perspectives on contemporary bande dessinée and its links to the Franco-Belgian tradition. The symposium saw the participation of a range of international contributors, including early career scholars, faculty, and artist contributors, based in Greece, Switzerland, Portugal, Canada, Panama, Israel, and the UK. We would like to thank our speakers for their contributions as well as for their flexibility in revising travel arrangements and, in some cases, arranging online delivery at short notice, as the start of the COVID-19 pandemic was unfolding in their respective countries at the time of the event. Our particular thanks go to Laurence Grove from the University of Glasgow for his keynote intervention entitled ‘The Relevance of Tintin’, and to graphic novelist Michel Kichka, who gave a keynote talk about the Franco-Belgian influences in his own work as well as a public seminar on his graphic novel Deuxième Génération. We are grateful to Wallonia-Brussels International (WBI), the Association for the Study of Modern and Contemporary France (ASMCF), the Society for French Studies (SFS), and the School of Arts at the University of Leicester for their sponsorship of the keynote sessions, the conference participation of comics artist Ilan Manouach, and travel and registration bursaries for early career researchers. For this follow-up publication, we express our particular thanks to all contributors and peer-reviewers, to Wallonia-Brussels International for support to the translation, and to the editors of European Comic Art, for their kind and patient assistance.

Narasi Fikih Kebangsaan di Pesantren Lirboyo

This article reviews the idea of ​​a nationalist Islamic boarding school in Lirboyo Kediri. This idea was born after the bahstul Masa'il was carried out by the Lirboyo Islamic Boarding School Alumni Association (Himasal) by responding to issues that occurred in this country. The method used is referring to the results of the Alim Ulama National Conference regarding methods of law-making, including qauli, ilhaqi, and manhaji. Indirectly, in an academic context, this national fiqh is a branch, or further study of scientific discussion in the form of Nusantara fiqh, which Nusantara fiqh is also a further specification of Nusantara Islam. Within the pesantren itself, the idea of ​​national fiqh is narrated in the form of a book that is disseminated, discussed and publicized, and used as the subject of the pesantren. So that it can be seen, from here that the Lirboyo pesantren has an orientation to contribute to national problems, namely the issue of nationality. The results show that the idea of ​​national fiqh in the Lirboyo Islamic boarding school emerged on the basis of the anxiety experienced by the alumni of the Pesantren Lirboyo. This idea manifests itself in the form of: a). the book that was distributed. b). discussed in a public seminar. c). used as subjects in the pesantren.

Let’s not just “talk” about it: reflections on women’s career development in hospitality

Purpose This paper aims to provide an action-orientated reflection for promoting gender equality in hospitality, based on Bradley’s (2013) approach that considers the operation of gender in the “production” and “reproduction” spheres of social life. To that end, it reflects on women’s career development in hospitality based on the Western perspective. Design/methodology/approach A two-stage thematic analysis of a public research seminar on gender issues in tourism and hospitality were used to explore issues of women’s career development within the intertwining spheres of “production” and “reproduction”. Findings Three themes, namely, culture of an open dialogue, bringing men into the equation and educating the future workforce, emerged from data to propose new insights on “what can be done” about gender equality in tourism and hospitality, including practical suggestions for transformations of gender relations in organisations. Research limitations/implications This paper contributes new knowledge on women’s career development in the hospitality industry by proposing recommendations to address gender gaps including fostering a culture of an open dialogue based on an inclusive listening environment, recommending changes to organisational policies and culture and integrating the subject of gender into tourism and hospitality curriculum. Originality/value By proposing a sociological perspective of gender in hospitality employment informed by Bradley (2013), this study challenges the traditional masculinity and the long-standing gender labour division through education, organisational and daily practices thus tackling fundamental gender issues.

Invasion and colonization: Islamophobia and anti-refugee sentiment in West Virginia

Amidst a rise in hate crimes, hate group organizing, and anti-Muslim and anti-refugee policy making in the United States, this paper examines efforts by a national hate group to organize opposition to the resettlement of Syrian Muslim refugees in West Virginia, a non-traditional refugee destination. Through analysis of materials disseminated at a public seminar titled the “Invasion and Colonization of West Virginia,” we identify four unique social-spatial themes this group is using to make alarmist and conspiratorial claims about Muslim refugees invading and colonizing the state and nation. These themes include the language of smallness, which affixes a white and Christian identity to certain spaces and suggests that these spaces are threatened. Spatial themes of ‘fresh territory’ and ‘sowing seeds’ are used to frame refugee resettlement as an assertion of social-spatial control to change ‘small spaces’ and ultimately change America. Claims of invasion and colonization function powerfully through the fourth theme of the “Other Islamic Bomb,” which frames Muslim women’s fertility as the vehicle of the invasion and colonization. This paper adds to emerging literature on the geographies of Islamophobia by examining not only the convergence of anti-Muslim and anti-refugee sentiment but its mobilization in regionally and locally specific contexts. The analysis demonstrates the dynamic interplay between spatial and social claims on which these alarmist narratives rely to vilify Muslims and refugees and to foment opposition in places not historically associated with immigration or refugee resettlement.

Affective and Cognitive Outcomes of Project-Based Team Work in a Model Lower Secondary School: The Case of Nuclear Energy

We report on our experience with the implementation of project-based teamwork on nuclear energy with 14 ninth-grade students from a lower secondary model school and its assessment using two written questionnaires, which were answered by the students after the completion of the project. The first questionnaire elicited students’ opinions about the overall project, while the second questionnaire examined students’ acquired knowledge. All the students were satisfied with their experience. The preparation and organization of the team members, their collaboration and discussions, and the presentation at a public seminar were considered the most important stages of the project. In addition, the preparation and organization, the practice in public presentation, the motivation for learning, and critical thinking were important skills and competencies developed. Students benefited from their familiarity with searching and evaluating information and were positive about their contact with scientists. With regard to the knowledge acquired, positive results emerged for the model school students as compared to beginning 1st-year university students from a previous study. The results highlight the importance of project-based work with model school students, as well as the role of the interaction between schools, society, and research institutions.

Although officially existing for just over two years, CCRU’s unusual studies combining the thought of Gilles Deleuze & Félix Guattari with cybernetics, science fiction, rave culture, and occult studies have influenced trends like speculative realism and “accelerationism.” Among the CCRU circle was cultural theorist Mark Fisher (1968–2017). Fisher’s collected writings are now published in a vast 814-page volume. The name K-Punk alone reflects Fisher’s interest in cyberpunk literature and post-punk music, both part of CCRU’s investigations.2 As he explains in an early post, “Why K?,” CCRU writers used “K” as “a libidinally preferable substitution” for the capture of the term “cyber”...

Spectral Compositions in a time of Revolt

In March 2017, Firstsite, a contemporary art gallery in Colchester, UK, hosted #WorldsUpsideDown, an exhibition curated by Stevphen Shukaitis that explored art’s treatment of moments of destabilization, crisis, and renewal. Included were photographs by Cairo-based artist Mosa’ab Elshamy of the 2011-2013 revolt in Egypt; Justseeds’s Celebrate People’s History poster series; and David Mabb’s Long Live the New! Morris & Co, Hand Printed Wallpapers and K. Malevich’s, Suprematism. These works were chosen because each communicates or represents moments of upheaval and provokes questions for audiences about how such moments resonate with each other and about what we can learn from aesthetic representation of such moments. Connecting with the themes of this issue, the exhibit explored how cycles of struggle expand aesthetic possibilities and media communications, from the Russian revolution’s embrace of the avant-garde to more recent utilization of social media. A public seminar with Richard Gilman-Opalsky and Stevphen Shukaitis was organized to explore themes in the exhibition and in their respective writings. What follows is an excerpt from that seminar.

The Androchair: Performing Gynaecology through the Practice of Gender Critical Design

This paper highlights the important role that design plays when it comes to women’s overall experiences of ther gynaecological examination. It exemplifies how the examination can become renegotiable through the practice of a critical design. We will reflect this in the design of the contemporary gynaecological examination chair (GEC). We used women’s experiences as a starting point for the design of an Androchair (a conceptual male equivalent of the GEC), in order to make the experiences critically visible. Inspired by the view of the gynaecological examination as a performance where the Androchair is represented as a prop and was placed on a stage as a discussion object during a public seminar. The Androchair allowed for both critical and multiple readings of the GEC and through that, the gynaecology examination at large. Moreover, it stimulated a discussion about alternative ideas towards achieving a more positive experience.

The attitude of Japanese individuals toward end-of-life care.

To understand the attitude of Japanese individuals toward end-of-life care. The present study was conducted among the individuals who participated in a public seminar and completed a questionnaire related to end-of-life care. We analyzed their responses. One hundred seventy-six participants (mean age: 64.7 years) answered the questionnaires, which asked whether they were familiar with the concept of a living will, who should decide their end-of-life care planning, what kind of nutritional support they would prefer to receive at the end-of-life, and what kind of medical treatments they were unwilling to receive. The answers were compared between the two age groups: those who were ≥75 years of age and those who were <75 years of age. A total of 49% were aware of the concept of a living will and 8% had actually written a living will. The difference between the two groups was not statistically significant. Most of the respondents (76% of the respondents who were <75 years of age and 63% of the respondents who were ≥75 years of age) thought that they should be able to decide on their end-of-life care planning themselves; however, more of the respondents who were ≥75 years of age wanted to depend on their primary care physician for the decision. The proportion of respondents who wished to maintain only oral intake until the end of their life was 54%; there was no significant difference between the two groups. Among the subjects who were ≥75 years of age, a smaller number of respondents indicated a medical treatment that they were unwilling to receive. In the present study, most of the late-elderly respondents indicated that they preferred to decide on their own end-of-life care planning by themselves, as was seen in younger respondents.

The Built Heritage Debate / A Questão do Património

In 2015 the Department of Architecture of FCTUC organized the annual International Meeting of PHI Network, which took place in Coimbra from November 18th to the 20th. The event integrated an internal meeting of the Network and a public seminar that focused on the cultural diversity of perspectives related with heritage intervention, with the presence of teachers from the mentioned international and national universities. Both events are now portrayed in this issue of JOELHO — Journal of Architectural Culture.In this context, we also decided to launch a call for papers dedicated to “The Question of Built Heritage” which are publish in this Joelho.

Disaster Relief: Restricting and Regulating Public Health Interventions.

The information contained in this teaching module and the accompanying PowerPoint slides is appropriate for use in a survey public health law course or seminar. The purpose of this lesson is two-fold. The first objective is to provide law students with an overview of the authority public health agencies have to set and enforce policies necessary to keep the population healthy. The second objective is to inform law students about the legal constraints courts have placed upon the actions of those agencies. The module ends with a project designed to give law students the opportunity to apply the law to a "real world" situation.

Ghanaian Indigenous Sculpture through the Ghanaian Cultural Lens

This is necessary to give an anthropological perspective in appreciation to help those foreign to the culture to appreciate and relish the works of art just the same way a Ghanaian will do. This is also necessary for sculpture particularly, because it is a major art form that influences the works of most Ghanaian artists as compared to the other art forms such as pottery, textiles or painting. A good appreciation of traditional sculpture then opens one’s eyes to contemporary Ghanaian art as well. We use empirical research method to source for answers to questions usually asked by newcomers to Ghana about traditional sculpture. This knowledge or information comes by means of direct or indirect observation or experience with sculptors and users of the forms from different and diverse ethnic groupings in the culture. What is termed as ‘General Characteristics’ are just helpful but apt answers to real questions normally asked by foreigners seeking to make something out of their new experiences with Ghanaian traditional art. We also find that t he consistent conformity of the traditional artist, does not spell a limitation in creativity, but does rather reveal the sophisticated and creative sensibilities that evolved and pervade the art of the various ethnicities. We guide an exercise to help understand a Ghanaian sculpture towards the end of this paper. 72 Adam, L. (1949). Primitive art , Penguin Books Ltd, London, p. 109. Antuba m, K. (1963).
