BACKGROUND: Cluttering has been described in the literature on speech disorders for over 300 years. Despite this, it remains a poorly understood condition whose history has not been analyzed as a whole to identify common themes and underlying frameworks. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this review is to identify thematic questions and frameworks contained within the literature on cluttering since the earliest found reference in 1717. METHODS: Information from influential historical and contemporary documents were analyzed. Particular attention was paid to the types of questions, both implicit and explicit, that were posed in these materials. This information was ultimately organized into five thematic strands, presented here in the form of key questions. RESULTS: Five questions were derived from our historical analysis: (1) What should the problem be called? (2) What kind of problem is it? (3) What are its defining features? (4) What are its causes? and (5) How should it be treated? The first four questions are discussed in this review. The fifth question will be addressed in a forthcoming paper. CONCLUSIONS: Consensus has been achieved on what to call the disorder (cluttering) and in what domain it should be placed (fluency). Less agreement exists regarding its defining features, causes, and treatment. We propose that alternative conceptual frameworks may be useful in breaking new ground in our understanding and management of this complex condition.

The specialty of dermatology is constantly changing to meet the medical needs of our society. The discipline is in flux because of a variety of factors such as growing population needs, technological advancements, fiscal restraint, and demographic changes. As part of an in-depth review of the specialty, the Dermatology Working Group (DWG) for the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada sought to determine whether the current training configuration is suitably preparing graduates to meet the societal health needs of dermatology patients. In this first of a 2-part series, the authors conducted comprehensive literature and historical reviews and a jurisdictional analysis to understand the current state of dermatology practice in Canada. Herein, they explore trends in the dermatology workforce, population needs, accessibility, and wait times, as well as issues in undergraduate and postgraduate medical education. In a subsequent publication, the DWG will utilize information gained from this historical analysis and jurisdictional review, stakeholder perspectives, and a national survey to shape the future of dermatology training in Canada.

AbstractThis paper examines the practices of translation in the 1551 Atlas of ‘Alī al-Sharafī of Sfax (d. after 1579). Drawing on conceptual frameworks from translation studies, linguistics, and other disciplines of textual and historical analysis, we argue that the iconographic and textual elements of the atlas –such as calendrical tables, qibla charts, knot patterns in frames, and depictions of flags and banners in sectional charts– reflect a quest for ways to culturally adapt map-making practices that were shared across the Mediterranean realm. As such, the product in question cannot be fully understood through the lens of traditional dichotomies such as Islamic vs. Christian or European vs. Middle Eastern or North African, as its cultural references and semiotic repertoire extend beyond subregional and confessional demarcations.

Since their official inception in the mid 1800s, Indigenous-aimed welfare policies in Canada have presupposed and entailed a racialized subject: the “lazy Indian.” This paper highlights continuities in how Indigenous subjects have been constructed in welfare policy discourse from 1867 to the present. Building from this historical overview, we analyze how today’s neoliberally inflected federal welfare regime at once recodes and reinscribes preexisting ethical narratives of “productive” and “unproductive” citizens, effectively casting Indigenous peoples as non-workers and thus “undeserving” of welfare relief. As our analysis indicates, further reform of welfare policies for Canada’s First Nations must first puncture the persistent myth of the “lazy Indian” in order to attend to the lasting legacy of colonial governance, contemporary barriers to self-sufficiency, and ongoing struggles for politico-economic sovereignty.

The idea of spirituality is increasingly being used in the context of adult education. This paper will tentatively explore some of the implications of an emergent spirituality within the practice of adult education. It begins by situating our understanding of spirituality in an historical context. This is followed by a brief historical overview of the relationship between spirituality, social change, and the practice of adult education. Building on this brief historical analysis, our understanding of an emergent spirituality is argued to be a property of the evolution of human consciousness. The implications of an emergent spirituality for the practice of adult education are then examined.

The article provides a historical analysis of the universities financial autonomy concept development, identifies and analyzes the main international documents related to this definition, highlights the main elements of financial autonomy, and examines international experience in the further development of financial autonomy in the higher education sector. It in turn allows to identify the main problems of financial autonomy in the Ukrainian context and develop appropriate recommendations for the development of financial autonomy of universities in Ukraine, including the already existing European methodological framework. This article applies the methods of scientific knowledge, systematic analysis and methods of comparative analysis. The methodological background of the study is the historical basis and modern trends in the scientific literature on the analysis of the financial autonomy of universities.

There is growing recognition of the importance of learners gaining transversal or 21st-century attributes in order to thrive in the contemporary world. This poses a number of challenges for educators. First, to what extent are transversal attributes innate, or do they include a combination of traits and skills? Second, what can teachers do to help nurture these attributes in learners? Third, how can the existence or strengthening of attributes be recognised? In this paper, we draw on work that we are doing for the International Baccalaureate Organisation to define conceptual frameworks for creativity and curiosity. Our goal is to enable learners to evidence achievement in each of these attributes, and for teachers to be able to recognise it. The frameworks draw on extensive scholarly literature to define the core components of both curiosity and creativity and the skills that are inherent in each one. This is the first step towards the development of a ‘transversal résumé’ that will allow learner achievement to be recorded. This includes a focus on the extent to which schools and teachers can provide learners with opportunities to gain, practice or enhance the skills that contribute to transversal attributes and a scaffold that enables learners to reflect on the extent to which they have evidenced creativity or curiosity in sustained pieces of work. The paper raises some key questions that have arisen as we have grappled with both conceptual and practical issues in this project. These provide valuable insights into the nurturing of transversal attributes, and the implications for educational professionals.

Рассматриваются процессы развития народной педагогики и формирования этнопедагогики. Изучены ключевые моменты истории становления этнопедагогических принципов обучения и воспитания, способствовавшие формированию этнопедагогики как самостоятельной науки. В настоящий момент в педагогике представлено достаточное количество сведений, свидетельствующих о поэтапном течении этих процессов. В силу анализа узкого аспекта развития народной педагогики и этнопедагогики, чаще применительно к контексту их формирования на территории России, теряется их общий план становления, что подчеркивает актуальность настоящего исследования. Описан процесс формирования этнопедагогики со времен развития дородового общества первобытнообщинного строя (400–35 тыс. лет до н. э.), когда началось становление корневых педагогических принципов. Определены умения, навыки, обучение которым было полезно не только для выживания, но и создания объектов культурного наследия до Нового (конец XVIII – 1917 г.) и Новейшего времен (1917 г. – настоящее время), в которые многие этнопедагогические принципы трансформировались, поскольку произошло понимание необходимости изучения подрастающими поколениями не только родной культуры, но и культур других народов, проживающих на одной территории, с тем что-бы их совместное сосуществование строилось на чувствах уважения и заботе друг о друге. Выделены принципы этнопедагогики (трудовой принцип, принцип семейственности, преемственности воспитания и обучения, традиционности, природосообразности, игровой принцип, принцип нравственности, культуросообразности и др.) и на основе анализа истории их становления сделан вывод о том, что они являются основой успешного функционирования и развития современной отечественной системы просвещения, особенной чертой которой служит ориентация образования на этнокультурное обучение и воспитание. The article presents an analysis of the consistent development of the foundations of folk pedagogy and ethnopedagogy in history. The purpose of the research is to analyze the ethnopedagogical principles of teaching and upbringing developing at key moments in history that led to the formation of ethnopedagogy as an independent science. At the present moment a sufficient amount of information is presented in pedagogy that testifies about the stage-by-stage course of these processes. However, due to the analysis of the narrow side of the development of folk pedagogy and ethnopedagogy, most often in relation to the context of their formation on the territory of Russia, their general plan of formation turns out to be lost. This emphasizes the relevance of the study. The process of the formation of ethnopedagogy is described from the moment of development of prenatal society during the primitive communal system (400–35 thousand BC), which laid the first ethnopedagogical foundations: not only survival skills, but also the skills of creating objects of cultural heritage, up to the New (late XVIII – 1917) and New time (1917 – present), when many ethnopedagogical principles were transformed due to the understanding of the need for the younger generation to study not only their native culture, but also the cultures of other peoples living in the same territory, so that they coexistence was based on respect and concern for each other. The principles of ethnopedagogy are highlighted (labor principle, the principle of family, continuity of upbringing and education, traditionality, conformity to nature, the game principle, the principle of morality, cultural conformity, etc.) and, the conclusion based on the historical analysis of their formation is made: these principles are the basis of modern domestic education system’s successful functioning and development having as a special feature its orientation towards ethnocultural education and upbringing.

As we approach the 40th anniversary of Canada’s multiculturalism policy, the concept of multiculturalism is under attack in many jurisdictions. The leaders of Germany, France and Britain, have each declared that multiculturalism has been a failure in their countries, serving to separate and segregate, rather than integrate (Edmonton Journal, February 13, 2011). It seems timely therefore, to briefly review the origins and evolution of Canada’s multiculturalism policy and examine future directions in light of the changing global and national situation, and newly emerging public discourses on integration, inclusion and the meaning of Canadian identity. The focus of this paper is on the role multiculturalism policy plays in creating a more inclusionary society in the twenty-first century in Canada. We set the context by presenting a brief historical overview of multiculturalism policy since its introduction in 1971 and summarizing some of the recent Canadian discourse surrounding multiculturalism. One of the key questions we explore is whether multiculturalism policy should move beyond focusing on the integration of population groups marginalized by national, racial, religious or ethnic origins, to addressing broader social inclusionary processes that influence inequities and impact on nation.
