This article reports on a study that inquired about the teaching and learning of administrative problem-framing skills in a problem-based learning (PBL) administrator preparation program. A literature-based definition of problem-framing ability is developed and a theoretical rationale for the study, based on elements of a social-psychological framework, is introduced. Employing a one-group pretest–posttest design, the problem-framing ability of students in one program cohort was measured prior to exposure to any PBL experiences and again at the end of their preparation program after repeated exposure to PBL. A statistical analysis reveals students’ problem-framing ability improves significantly over time, associated with their level of exposure to PBL. In postprogram qualitative data, graduates suggest PBL preparation develops their ability to frame problems encountered in practice. Finally, the implications of the findings for instructional practice and future research on administrator preparation are explored.

Beginning in March 1942 and continuing until November of the same year, approximately 107,000 persons of Japanese ancestry were evacuated from the West Coast. They moved first to hastily prepared quarters in "assembly centers", such as race tracks and fairgrounds, then into equally hastily prepared "relocation centers" scattered from California to Arkansas.

AbstractThis paper analyses the relationships between illness and structures of authority in the oasis of Dunhuang in the late 20th century and during the time of the Guiyijun regime which ruled the area as an independent warlord state from the middle of the 9th to the beginning of the 11th century. Both the medieval and the modern systems for dealing with illness in Dunhuang are analysed here as part of a larger problem of threat as an inherent element in any order of authority. In this paper, illness is taken as a political and administrative problem, both in the sense that political forces are mobilised around it and in the sense that political and administrative structures give illness an organisational form. Guiyijun systems of storage and structures of governance in the political and familial realms are understood as the reference point for the strategies deployed in the face of illness ‘events’ and as explanatory frameworks closely linked to accounts of dysfunction in the internal order of the body. The late 20th century order of disease management in Dunhuang forms a counterpart to these medieval structures, despite the major differences in the forms for responding to and attacking illness in the oasis in the public health regimes of the modern era and in the medical and ceremonial practices used a millennium before.
