Item Critical Pedagogy in Physical Education(Springer Nature, 2021) Lynch, Shrehan; Ovens, AlanItem Critical Pedagogy in Physical Education(Springer Nature, 2022) Lynch, Shrehan; Ovens, AlanItem Democratic Teacher Education Practices(Springer Nature, 2022) Ovens, Alan; Lynch, ShrehanA democratic pedagogy for teacher education refers to the dynamic and deliberate process of assembling a professional learning community committed to enacting democratic principles. The key principle among these is the presupposition of equality among all participants as a starting point rather than a goal to be achieved. The learning community is then enriched and shaped by the connections it makes both within the teacher education institution and beyond. The aim is to allow teacher candidates to engage with practicing teachers, school students, parents, elders of cultural groups, academics, policymakers, and other community members. In this way, a democratic pedagogy for teacher education utilizes a community’s funds of knowledge, both local and distant, as an integral component of the teacher education curriculum that emerges through such interaction. It seeks to embrace diversity, participation, inquiry, connectivity, and voice as a means for teacher education.Item S-STEP in Physical Education Teacher Education(Springer Nature, 2020) Fletcher, Tim; Ovens, AlanIn this chapter we review the literature on S-STEP in physical education teacher education (PETE) and its related fields, such as coach education. The review consisted of 43 materials, which were allocated to one of three major themes: becoming a teacher educator, pedagogies of teacher education (such as problematizing PETE practice, pedagogical innovations in PETE), and teachers studying their practices in schools. Despite a relatively slow uptake of S-STEP methodology in physical education teacher education (PETE), there is a growing presence of S-STEP research in the field. The research reviewed showed how PETE researchers have drawn from and built upon insights generated by S-STEP researchers conducting their work in other subject areas, such as science and literacy. Several themes in the PETE literature suggest that this work can contribute to a broader understanding of the complex and problematic nature of teacher education practice and thus help solidify and enrich the base of knowledge about teaching teachers. Although there are several promising avenues pursued by PETE researchers, we identify several areas ripe for investigation in the future.Item Marine natural products(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2022-06) Carroll, Anthony R; Copp, Brent R; Davis, Rohan A; Keyzers, Robert A; Prinsep, Michèle RCovering: 2020This review covers the literature published in 2020 for marine natural products (MNPs), with 757 citations (747 for the period January to December 2020) referring to compounds isolated from marine microorganisms and phytoplankton, green, brown and red algae, sponges, cnidarians, bryozoans, molluscs, tunicates, echinoderms, mangroves and other intertidal plants and microorganisms. The emphasis is on new compounds (1407 in 420 papers for 2020), together with the relevant biological activities, source organisms and country of origin. Pertinent reviews, biosynthetic studies, first syntheses, and syntheses that led to the revision of structures or stereochemistries, have been included. A meta analysis of bioactivity data relating to new MNPs reported over the last five years is also presented.Item Marine natural products(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2023-02) Carroll, Anthony R; Copp, Brent R; Davis, Rohan A; Keyzers, Robert A; Prinsep, Michèle RCovering: January to December 2021This review covers the literature published in 2021 for marine natural products (MNPs), with 736 citations (724 for the period January to December 2021) referring to compounds isolated from marine microorganisms and phytoplankton, green, brown and red algae, sponges, cnidarians, bryozoans, molluscs, tunicates, echinoderms, mangroves and other intertidal plants and microorganisms. The emphasis is on new compounds (1425 in 416 papers for 2021), together with the relevant biological activities, source organisms and country of origin. Pertinent reviews, biosynthetic studies, first syntheses, and syntheses that led to the revision of structures or stereochemistries, have been included. An analysis of the number of authors, their affiliations, domestic and international collection locations, focus of MNP studies, citation metrics and journal choices is discussed.Item The Potential of Indo-Dutch Defense Trade(2018-09-27) Menon, Harisankar; Schillemans, ImmeItem Administrative Law(2024) Wilberg, HannaItem The Art of Psychoanalytic Marketing - Dark Tourism(2018-10-16) Menon, HarisankarItem The importance of caregiver sensitivity for children’s development : Evidence brief(Centre for Holistic Initiatives in Learning and Development (CHILD), 2023-08) Low, FeliciaDiscusses the positive impacts of caregiver sensitivity and the factors hindering a caregivers’ ability to engage in sensitive caregiving behaviours.Item SME Business Culture Difference between India and Netherlands(2019-10-04) Schillemans, Imme; Menon, HarisankarItem Neil Gaiman and the political economy of rape(2025-01-17) Rakete, EmmyIn this article, I argue that the allegations of sexual abuse raised by a number of women against the author Neil Gaiman illustrate elements of Marxist feminist political economy. Using Lise Vogel's Marxism and the Oppression of Women, I argue that women have been made to perform domestic reproductive labour that makes us vulnerable to sexual violence. This is not arbitrary, but a deliberate element of capitalist political economy, which works to depress wages and reduce social spending. I point to New Zealand's state housing and welfare policies, which contributed to the decision of at least one of Gaiman's accusers to continue living in Gaiman's home.Item Market Entry Strategy For Sound Filter Buds(2019-10-04) Menon, Harisankar; Schillemans, ImmeItem Beamforming informed independent low-rank matrix analysis for sound source enhancement in unmanned aerial vehicles(2024-12-02) Teh, Jin Xuan; Takamune, Norihiro; Saruwatari, Hiroshi; Yen, Benjamin; Kingan, Michael; Hioka, YusukeThis study proposes the integration of informed, supervised, and blind sound source enhancement approaches for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) applications. The proposed method incorporates a beamformer, representing the informed approach, a pre-recorded noise database for the supervised approach, and independent low-rank matrix analysis (ILRMA) for the blind approach. This method aims to improve sound source enhancement performance while addressing the permutation ambiguity problem of the output channels inherent to ILRMA. The method leverages the fixed spatial relationship between the UAV’s propellers and microphones to capture spatial information of the noise generated the propellers. This is achieved by deriving a noise covariance matrix from pre-recorded propeller noise signals and incorporating it into a general eigenvalue beamformer to effectively suppress these noises. The filter weights of the beamformer are then used to inform the spatially regularised ILRMA, guiding the algorithm with additional spatial information of the sound sources. Experimental results demonstrate significant performance improvements, including a 13 dB increase in the source-to-distortion ratio and a 0.21 point increase in the short-time objective intelligibility score. The proposed method outperforms both the original ILRMA and the beamformer in most scenarios and effectively addresses the global permutation ambiguity problem.Item A Preliminary Study on the Vowel Length Contrast in te reo Māori(2024) Hui, Justine; Shields, Isabella; Keegan, Peter J; Watson, Catherine ITe reo Maori (the M ¯ aori language of New Zealand) has a long- ¯ short vowel contrast. Previous studies have shown some of the long vowels have been shortened, resulting in a reduction in durational distinction between short and long vowels. Present-day elders’ vowel duration was compared with younger speakers, and we found that younger speakers have shortened their short vowels, resulting in an increased vowel distinction for certain vowels. An identification perception test was carried out to examine the categorical boundary of the long-short vowel contrast for Maori learners and advanced listeners, where the advanced ¯ listeners responded more ambiguously, suggesting they may be using cues beyond durationItem In-context and Ecology Immersion for Resilience: An Exploration of the Design of a Household Farming Kit(2014) Brand, Kyle Graham; Campbell, Angus DonaldHuman-Centred Design proposes the method of In-context Immersion or meeting people where they live, work and socialise as a method to gain new insights and opportunities for the designer (IDEO, 2013). This method as per the majority of empirical research tends to simplify complex situations in order to provide a set of criteria that can then guide a design intervention to such problems. This paper explores how it is important to not only understand the contextual situation of a problem, but also a much broader range of contexts and in uences which constitute the ecology of the problem. Ecology Immersion can be de ned over and above the designers’ immersion into a speci c context by the further discovery and exploration of other connected contexts. The designer is able to map a broader system by immersing her/himself in these interconnected contexts and hence foreseeing how a proposed intervention could interact in the greater ecology of the problem. An example could be the e ect the seemingly independent biological system and economic system could have on a small-scale agricultural project. This improved understanding then allows for the design intervention to have a better foundation in terms of the systems it relies on, which potentially aids the nal intervention’s resilience. This paper explores and criticises the design process of a household farming kit as an example of such a method. This critique will o er potential insight into future applications of this method in the eld of Industrial Design and its potential application in other design disciplines to encourage greater resilience.Item Adoption of HR Analytics: A Way Forward(2019) Menon, Harisankar; Yogesh Pai, RashmiHR Analytics should be experiencing an evolution of analytics from basic metrics and measurement of internal HR metrics to a focus on the ‘analysis of critical human capital issues’ (Levenson, 2005, p.31)Item A Framework for Socio-Technical Innovation: The Case of a Human-Powered Shredder(2015) Campbell, Angus Donald; Harrison, Peter HughIn order to envision a better future through design, whilst acknowledging the complexity of such an undertaking, the authors of this paper unpack a framework for socio-technical innovation. This framework combines social innovation with the amplifying power of appropriate technology to bring about positive change. The paper discusses the shortfalls of traditional human-centred design (HCD) and proposes the addition of framing and infrastructuring, appropriate technology, and capabilities to form a collaborative participatory design framework for socio-technical innovation that can be measured for impact. This framework is clarified through a case study that envisions the initial design criteria for a human-powered shredder for urban farmers to reduce organic material for compost and mulch. The context for this case study is the township of Soweto in South Africa, which is fraught with an unjust past. A highly collaborative design research process is therefore required to help ensure democratic outcomes. The process starts with initial framing and infrastructuring through multi-stakeholder engagement. A set of design criteria was then defined through HCD and participatory technology development to encourage an appropriate technological outcome that will enhance the urban farmers’ capabilities. The impact of the socio-technical innovation process was continually monitored and will be finally evaluated for impact based on these criteria.Item Effective Social Media Marketing Strategy: Facebook as an opportunity for Higher Education Institution(Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode, January 2020) Lazhya, Abhyulin; Menon, HarisankarFocuses on the variation of the Technology Acceptance Model for Social Networking Sites like Facebook to establish a background for it as a marketing platform for universities.Item Curriculum Integration: Matariki – The Māori New Year(2024-10-25) Lemon, Ruth; Hanly, Tamsin; de Vries, Marc J; Williams, P John; Buckley, Jeffrey; McLain, Matt; Dooley, Kelly; Gu, Jianjun; Du, Yueyan; Tao, Ying; Yang, Qiuyue; Zhu, WenchengCurriculum integration is popular but challenging for both the teacher and the student when reflecting on the learning and the process of coming to know. This is the third paper in a series. A case study was selected from within a much larger dataset of teaching artefacts, that had been used in English-medium and Māori-medium teaching contexts for year one to eight students in Aotearoa New Zealand (aged between 5 and 12 years). The selected case study representing ten weeks of learning for composite classes of students was then analysed in relation to the literature on curriculum integration utilising an autoethnographic-inspired lens. The selected case study, entitled Matariki – The Māori New Year, has been repeated annually since 1996, long before this celebration gained popularity on a national level. It is vital with units that repeat frequently, to look for an angle – will the teaching and learning focus on the preservation and storage of food? Or digital storying and re-telling of Matariki stories? What will the culminating event look like and how will whānau and wider community be involved? The planning and classroom delivery of this integrated unit over many iterations is summarised. Then this research builds on emerging principles for effective curriculum integration introduced in the first paper of this series.
