Teachers of Chinese are challenged to create a classroom environment where Chinese is the means of communication 90 percent of the time. Topics of conversation must be linguistically and developmentally appropriate, interesting, and should help students learn about themselves as they learn about the Chinese-speaking world. With these considerations in mind, participants will learn to design unit plans that revolve around an important question about the Chinese-speaking world and that support the language patterns and vocabulary needed to develop communication skills and cultural understanding.

Design as a Change Agent in Care - 2021 presentation QUT
Evonne Miller, Professor of Design Psychology and Director of the QUT Design Lab, will share her experience in leading arts and design-based research – both design and design doing - in healthcare, and how design can be an agent of change.
Evonne – whose background is in psychology - will reflect on her unusual career path and the value of a psychology lens for designers. Drawing on recent projects in aged care and healthcare, Evonne will discuss her experience using visual tools, ‘theory-storming’ and appreciative inquiry approaches in participatory workshops, as well learnings from implementing HEAL – the Healthcare Excellence AcceLerator, which has embedded designers into Queensland hospitals in[masked].
Evonne has been awarded over $3.7 Million in competitive research grant funding, and over 100 scholarly publications - including two recent books: Creating Great Places: Evidence-based urban design for health and wellbeing (Routledge, 2020, with A/Prof Deb Cushing), and “Creative Arts-Based Research in Aged Care: Photovoice, Photography and Poetry in Action” (Routledge, 2021).

Creating Great Places - Webinar1_Salutogenic Design QUT
Imagining and designing urban environments where all people thrive is an extraordinary task. For a space to inspire, excite and positively transform people’s lives, it needs to be designed based on theory and research. This PPT is part one of a free four-part webinar design series delving into research, case studies and critical theories to provide you with the tools to create spaces that are inclusive, sustainable and salutogenic, that is, health-promoting.
Based on their newly released book “Creating Great Places: Evidence-based Urban Design for Health and Wellbeing”, Associate Professor of Landscape Architecture Debra Cushing and Professor of Design Psychology Evonne Miller, will lead a conversation about the value and processes of engaging deeply with design theory. In collaboration with Tobias Volbert from Urban Play, Deb and Evonne will walk through a different priority each week:
Week 1 introduces their notion of theory-storming (based on Edward de Bono’s Thinking Hats approach) and how to design salutogenic (health-promoting) places.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

come here? Well my family decided that I
was too old to be on my own and I needed
organising (laughs). How did you feel about
that (laughs)? Not at all. Not at all,
ok...(laughs). Because everything had to go
by the board. You lose practically everything
to come in here. This is all we have got left
now. Right..so, in terms of your furniture and
your items ----- Yeah, you lose everything.
You only have the barest minimum. As you
can see, there's not much here. It is not nice..
at all.
LAST TEN MINUTES Do you feel sad,
ever? Sad? Like tears/sad? Yeah. Strongly?
You get so frustrated at times, you could
scream the place down. Is there anything else
that you would like to say that I haven't
asked about? I think I have said more than
enough (laughs).

‘Scream the Place Down’
Joyce, 87
15. my family said
I was too old -
too old, to be on my own
that I needed organising.
But, you lose everything -
you lose everything
to come in here.
As you can see ,
you only have
the barest minimum.
There's not much here.
It is not nice,
not nice at all.
It is not good for me
I CAN’T GET OUT!
That's what you lose, when you come in.
All your independence -
is taken away from you.
I'm not able to do it myself -
that's very hard to take,
You get so frustrated
at times, you could
scream the place down

ICCEE STEP 1. Immersion
19. Forgotten
Alot of people think of us
of older people
as something that should be
shoved,
in the corner,
forgotten.
when you are getting old
you don't want
to feel
forgotten.
you want to -
live life
to the fullest
live for today
don't worry about next week.
just sit back and enjoy it.
And thank God
I am still here
Florence, age 79
• Purposely evocative title resonates, evoking shared
cultural narrative and fear of ‘being forgotten’—in
life & aged care
• Direct second-person address - you don't want to
feel forgotten
• Imagery engages - ‘shoved into a corner’
• Implicit question:
are you living your life to the fullest?
Embodied experience - make reader feel
ICCEE Step 2: Creation
20. ICCEE Step 3: Critical Reflection
You must critically assess quality.
Less engaging poems feel “flat and contrived ”
Pay attention to detail – ponder titles, word
choice, emotion, rhyme, metaphor, imagery..
these choices determine the impact of a poem.
21. Criteria Poem Explanation
Artistic
concentration
(attention to poetic
detail and feeling)
You could scream the
place down
From the purposely evocative title with its memorable deployment of metaphor, to repetition of words and phrases
using the rhetorical technique of anaphora (e.g., “You lose everything, you lose everything, to come in here”), poem
utilises an array of poetic tools (sound, rhyme, word choice, enjambment) to engage the reader.
Embodied
experience (makes
reader feel)
Life’s different, over
80
Reader has visceral experience of this older women’s feeling of loss, sadness and resigned acceptance, recounting
outliving her family, being too old to make new friends and television as her only trusted companion. Poem’s direct
second-person address implicates reader in speaker’s feelings/thoughts of (e.g., ‘you don’t realise / what you are
giving up’).
Discovery
/ Surprise
(learn)
You’re taken care of Generally positive, poem’s last lines surprise with humour: “though I haven’t been able / to find a nice man yet”.
Subtly challenges stereotypes, surprises with particularity of the speaker’s voice, the colloquialisms and
vernacular syntax (e.g., “I don’t do no work’; ‘I got me own furniture’), evoke a memorable sense of personality
accompanying experiences
Conditionality Poems 1-3 vs. 4 & 5 Presenting five poems emphasises individual, conditional partiality of aged care experience: poems give a balanced
view, traversing both positive and negative responses to aged care
Narrative truth
(facts ring true)
Can't pretend teenager Tone is intimate and honest, reflecting on the reality of coming to terms with ageing in aged care. Deploys several
colloquialisms and rhetorical questions, as seen in its title, which add to aura of authenticity.
Transform (social
change)
Life’s different Rare insight into day-to-day lived experience of aged care, especially transition relying on staff to help with intimate
activities of daily living, such as showering and dressing.
Evaluating Research Poems: Applying Faulkner’s six “ars poetica” criteria
Faulkner, S. L. (2007). Concern with craft: Using Ars Poetica as criteria for reading research poetry. Qualitative Inquiry, 13(2), 218-234.
Debate re “good-enough” poetry while learn craft vs. argument much poetry written by social science researchers is inferior. Faulkner
(2007) provocatively notes she is ‘tired of reading and listening to lousy poetry that masquerades as research and vice versa’ (p.220).
22. Decision Point 1:
Concept of “Home” – Title, Length,
Ending, and Concrete Presentation
Decision Point 2:
“Free from Stress; Free from
Worry”
give yourself grace & space to grow
as a Research Poet
23. ICCEE Step 4: Ethics
• Ethical engagement:
- poetry training for residents
- self-selected pseudonym
- explicit member checking;
wife felt ‘too negative…
write another’
• Exhibition: 2 private
viewings – yet, on day:
‘remove my poem’

• Exhibition: 2 private

25. ICCEE STEP 5: Engagement
(a) engage with poets & practice of poetry
(b) engage with the public
“remove the false mask of academic distance and expertise to reveal,
poetically, the human dimensions beneath”
(Galvin & Prendergast, 2016, p. 104)
Maya Angelou, Dorianne Laux, Wyn Cooper, William Stafford
“I was petrified the first time I read a transcript poem in public:
Thoughts that ran through my mind were: How could I (a non-
poet) dare to engage with this artistic medium? What would the
general public, my academic peers, and industry networks think?
Would they laugh at my first attempt to engage with poetry,
thinking it too was trite, too sentimental, simply not very good or
just not academically rigorous?”
Miller, 2019

"you don't start from scratch. All you have to do
is find some good language and ‘improve' it”….
"poems hide in things you and others say and
write….”…. just keep “your ears and eyes alert to
the possibilities in ordinary language”

The arts, as Patricia Leavy explains, have
a unique capacity to “educate, inspire,
illuminate, resist, heal and persuade…
[connecting] us with these who are
similar and dissimilar, open up new ways
of seeing and experiencing, and
illuminate that which often remains in
darkness” (p. ix, 2015).

Transformative learning experiences that help creating a futures

Jack Mezirow, 2000
84. Learning 1.
As well as being visionary, a
design-led approach enables the
creative co-creation of a
compelling, vision for change
Creativity, the production of novel and useful ideas, is a clear
strategic advantage in contemporary healthcare - because
disrupting multiple legacy systems (IT, organizational structures,
processes) needs resilience, energy & creative vision
85. Learning 2.
Creative arts & design
methods purposely and
memorably amplify
consumer voices
to change the status quo, design thinks & communicates DIFFERENTLY
• Asks different questions: WITH people, NOT to them
• Memorable VISUAL language
86. Listen to, amplify voices of & support the
patient work of healing and the
clinician/staff work of clinical care
– caring for the people who care
Design methods create space for quality
conversations on entrenched challenges – for
seeming what we don’t know.
