Abstract:
Tom Read arrived at Columbia University on the same day that I did in 1948. He was a new professor in the School of Mines and I was a new graduate student. He was more than just a new professor. He was exceptional for that time. His father, T.T. Read, had been famous as an archeological metallurgist and professor at Columbia when the School of Mines was the premier school of its kind in the country. A measure of its eminence is that Irving Langmuir chose to study there rather than in a standard chemistry department.The younger Tom Read had studied physics at Columbia under Shirley Quimby, one of the few solid-state physics professors of the time (pre-transistor). After graduation he worked at the Frankford Arsenal and at the Westinghouse Research Laboratories, where he and Frederick Seitz wrote their definitive review of the mechanisms of the plastic deformation of solids.When he came back to Columbia as a professor, Tom Read's physics background made him almost unique among metallurgy professors. And, he had the zeal of a crusader — he was determined to teach fundamental knowledge rather than recipes. His techniques were often novel.For example, one semester we were to learn about ferromagnetism. But he had trouble finding a good American text, so he announced that we would study both ferromagnetism and German using the famous book by Becker and Doring called Ferromagnetisms. As a result, I have never forgotten the essentials of ferromagnetism.

Abstract:
In this article, the authors demonstrate the ways elementary teachers, their university partner, and children co-construct knowledge within a culture of inquiry. Inquiry permeates teaching, learning, and ongoing professional development at the Center for Inquiry in Columbia, South Carolina. The teachers featured in this piece illuminate how their students became reading researchers, engaged parents in the research process, investigated eating habits and food waste in the school cafeteria, and participated in international citizen science projects. As young researchers, the kids grew new beliefs that led them to take new actions. They became more sophisticated and strategic readers, more conscientious eaters, more careful consumers, and better caretakers of the earth. The authors conclude with concrete strategies for engaging students in action research. They also offer recommendations for grounding ongoing professional development in teacher inquiry.

Abstract:
Este artigo procura examinar a trajetória de Alda Lodi, enfocando o modo como sua atuação, no campo do ensino de matemática, consolidou seu papel de expert da educação em Minas Gerais. Formada na Escola Normal de Belo Horizonte, Lodi viajou aos Estados Unidos em 1927 como parte de uma missão pedagógica vinculada à reforma Francisco Campos. Sua viagem de estudos ao Teachers College funcionou como elemento de ascensão profissional, ao mesmo tempo em que fundamentou as discussões que ela desenvolveu com as professoras-alunas da Escola de Aperfeiçoamento de Belo Horizonte, onde foi professora de Metodologia da Aritmética. Neste artigo, procuramos explorar suas contribuições para o ensino de matemática a partir dos programas de Aritmética e Geometria do ensino primário – escritos por ela para a Secretaria de Educação de Minas Gerais entre os anos de 1941 e 1953. Com isso, procuramos contribuir para os estudos que investigam o papel que os experts desempenharam na sistematização de saberes a e para ensinar matemática no Brasil.Cultural exchange, teacher training and school programs: Alda Lodi, expertThis article aims to examine Alda Lodi’s career, focused on the way her work in the field of mathematics education helped to place her as an education expert in Minas Gerais. Alda Lodi graduated at the Belo Horizonte Normal School in 1915. In 1927, she travelled to the United States to study education as part of a pedagogical mission organized by Francisco Campos, who was reforming the education system of Minas Gerais state. Her time at the Teachers College, Columbia University was very important to her career. It also played a central role in the discussions developed by her at the Escola de Aperfeiçoamento de Belo Horizonte (Belo Horizonte Teacher Training School, in free translation), in the field of Methodology of Arithmetic. In this article we are going to explore her contributions to the teaching of mathematics using two Arithmetic and Geometry programs she wrote between the 1940’s and 1950’s for the Minas Gerais Department of Education. Thus, we aim to contribute to the studies that deal with the role played by experts in the systematization of the knowledge to teach and for teaching in the field of mathematics education in Brazil.Keywords: History of mathematics education; Alda Lodi; Experts; Teaching programs.

Abstract:
When the science of humanity turns its attention toward industrial civilization, it should consider not only the condition of industrial producers, which has been the staple of industrial anthropology in works such as those by June Nash (We Eat the Mines and the Mines Eat Us: Dependency and Exploitation in Bolivian Tin Mines. New York: Columbia University Press. 1979) and Aihwa Ong, (Spirits of Resistance and Capitalist Discipline: Factory Women in Malaysia. Albany. State University of New York Press. 1987) but also the distinctive characteristics of industrial societies. One of these is the tendency of industrial societies to democratize physical risk. Some of the unique characteristics of industrial technology, particularly its complexity and its aggressive deployment, have for the first time in history exposed broad reaches of humanity to man-made, large-scale risk. By examining the industrial disasters of the past century, both in their technological dimensions and their moral qualities, we can begin to construct an anthropology of industrial civilization.

Abstract:
Edmund Anscombe is reputed to have begun his architectural career in Dunedin with the success of the University of Otago School of Mines competition, after spending five years in America (1902-1906) studying architecture. His early career is characterised by consistent success in architectural competitions over a short period of time. He won competitions for the University of Otago School of Mines (1908), the Young Men's Christian Association Building (1909), the Hanover Street Baptist Church (1910), and the Dunedin Girls' High School (1909) - where he won first and second place. This competition work chronologically culminates in an unsuccessful entry in the 1911 competition for a new New Zealand Parliament, which was won by John Campbell and Claude Paton.

Abstract:
This article, written by JPT Technology Editor Chris Carpenter, contains highlights of paper SPE 201272, “Lessons Learned in Developing Human Capital for the Oil and Gas Industry in Kazakhstan,” by Zhassulan Dairov, SPE, KIMEP University and Satbayev University; Murat Syzdykov, SPE, Satbayev University; and Jennifer Miskimins, SPE, Colorado School of Mines, prepared for the 2020 SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, originally scheduled to be held in Denver, Colorado, 5–7 October. The paper has not been peer reviewed. The World Economic Forum’s (WEF) Human Capital initiative has been implemented at Satbayev University (SU), Almaty, Kazakhstan, during the last 2 years. Participating in this effort are Chevron, Eni, Shell, and the Colorado School of Mines (Mines). The complete paper assesses the effectiveness of project components, such as industry guest lectures, summer internships, and program improvement, and provides lessons learned for human-resource-development initiatives. Introduction In most cases, the industry/ university alliance is intermittent, short-term, and underdeveloped. The engagement of three stakeholders, such as government, industry, and the university, is the most-successful model of joint performance. This approach allows all participants to create competitive advantages in the achievement of common objectives. Moreover, the role of governmental agencies is critical alongside professional organizations in facilitating such cooperation.

Abstract:
In June–July 2000 a sample collection programme was completed in the extant carnelian mines of Jhagadia Taluka, Broach District, Gujarat, Western India (FIGURE 1). The predominant rationale behind the fieldwork is an Africanist one. Namely, to obtain modern comparative material which could be elementally analysed and compared with samples of carnelian beads from archaeological contexts in West and West-Central Africa. For besides local production of carnelian beads in West Africa, it seems that certain examples were also imported via trans-Saharan trade routes, probably from India (Insoll 2000). However, at present such an attribution remains purely hypothetical, based as it is upon the colour, workmanship, and shapes, resembling the carnelian bead production of Western India. Beads known to have been extensively exported in the medieval period, the focus here, and of course before (Theunissenet al. 2000). Thus it is hoped that the geochemical analysis of the carnelian samples from Gujarat will either prove or disprove a trade to West Africa. Following a successful pilot study at the NERC LA-ICP-MS facility at Kingston University, the full programme of analysis will now be completed in co-operation with Dr Dave Polya in the new LA-ICP-MS facility at the School of Earth Sciences, University of Manchester.

Abstract:
The article deals with the innovative activities at the Medical School of Columbia University from 1767 to the late 19th century. Moreover, the author points to the prerequisites for the establishment of the Medical School in New York. Firstly, in 1750 young and skilled doctors moved to New York and started to conduct private classes for those wishing to master medicine. Secondly, in 1760 according to the law, every doctor and surgeon had to obtain special permission – a license for practicing. As a result, in 1767, the Medical School of King’s College appeared. It should be noted that it changed its official name many times for many reasons. Finally, in the late 19th century it became the Medical School of Columbia University. There was intensive development of both individual and collective innovations in the 1840s – 1850s.

Abstract:
The original Mackay School of Mines Building was constructed in 1908. It is one of the original buildings of the University of Nevada, and is situated at the north end of the main quadrangle within the campus. Prominent in its location at University of Nevada and in appearance, the building is designated as a national historic monument. During the years of 1926 and 1956, significant structural alterations were made to the original building. Phase III work at the original Mackay School of Mines Building involves adding a library at the basement, with the balance of the building being remodeled for similar-type functions. Constructed mainly of unreinforced masonry, the seismic rehabilitation of the structure warrants careful attention. During the schematic phase of the work, both conventional strengthening and Base Isolation were explored as potential techniques with which to mitigate damage from earthquakes. Cost estimate of both schemes were also developed. From a preservationist point of view, there were definite advantages in the isolation design. Since the isolation system could filter out most of the damaging forces associated with earthquakes, none of the unreinforced masonry walls required strengthening. As a result, many of the original architectural features of the original building can be salvaged, maintaining the original quality of the building and its identity. For these reasons the Base Isolation option was selected as the seismic retrofit scheme. This paper illustrates the Base Isolation design for the Mackay School of Mines, a historical structure constructed of unreinforced masonry. The isolation system consists of high-damping rubber bearings in combination with sliding elements.

I decided to study the history of American higher education shortly after May 1, 1968. Early that morning, over a thousand New York City police officers had cleared the Columbia University campus of demonstrators and the occupants of five university buildings. Upwards of 800 were arrested; perhaps the same number of students, faculty, and police needed medical attention. The next afternoon, the leaders of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) gathered on the balcony of the Columbia Law School building, looking at over a thousand demonstrators protesting the police action. The images of the police action initiated by the Columbia administration still haunt me. But so does the triumph of “manipulatory democracy” practiced by SDS members.

Abstract:
Colonial Australian science grew by a process of transplantation, adaptation, and innovation in response to local conditions. The discovery of gold in 1851, and the location of vast resources of other minerals, transformed the colonies, as it did the imperial economy. In this process, the role of mining engineering and mining education played a significant part. Its history, long neglected by historians, illuminates the ways in which the colonial universities sought to guide and direct this engine of change, conscious both of overseas precedent and local necessity. This paper considers the particular circumstances of New South Wales, and the role of the University of Sydney, in seizing the day—and producing a degree—that lasted nearly a century.

AbstractThe University of Victoria has the only program in Canada offering a Bachelor of Science degree in Health Information Science. To meet the requirements of the degree, students must complete 60 units of course work (normally 40 courses) and 4 CO-OP work terms over 4.3 years. The School admits approximately 30 students each year. Seventy-five percent of the students come from British Columbia, ranging in age from 18 to 50 years with the average age being 26 years. In addition to recent high school graduates, over 40% have previous degrees or diplomas, and 65% have over 5 years of work experience. The School’s teaching team consists of 4 full-time faculty, 2 professional staff, 2 clerical staff, 7 adjunct faculty and a variable number of sessional teaching staff. The majority of the faculty have health backgrounds, totalling 150 person-years of health care experience. As of November 1995, the School had 168 graduates 75% of whom are employed in British Columbia, 17% in other parts of Canada and 8% outside the country. Sixty-five percent of the graduates work in government departments including community health agencies; 10% work in hospitals, 20% work for management consulting firms, software houses, or computer hardware firms, and 5% are otherwise employed. Almost 100% of the graduates are gainfully employed in professional positions in which their health information science degree is valued. They work as systems analysts, system designers/developers, consultants, research assistants, health-care planners, information system-support staff/trainers and client-account representatives. Some are already in senior management positions.

Abstract:
The purpose of this research is to present a comprehensive overview of the Microcredential program TCRWP in an effort to improve teacher literacy competence in Indonesia. The research method used descriptive qualitative with 53 teachers as subjects from PAUD (Pendidikan Anak Usia Dini/Preschool) and SD (Sekolah Dasar/Elementary School) levels from 14 provinces in Indonesia. The results of the study show the government's success in increasing teachers’ literacy competence through implementation of the TCRWP microcredential program with an indicator of test scores > 80. The rationalization for the success of this program consists of (1) An increase in teachers' understanding of the continuum literacy principle conceptually as a representative polarization of literacy learning in the context of Indonesian education; (2) Capacity building in choosing and developing decodable books and their levels; (3) An increase in ability to formulate reading workshop strategy as an innovative strategy in developing more contextual literacy learning.

I met Al Chandler in late 1962 (or early 1963), when he visited the Graduate School of Business, Columbia University, as a guest of Associate Dean Clarence Walton. Chandler gave a seminar, based on his new book Strategy and Structure. I was then at Columbia Business School, completing my (and Frank Ernest Hill's) archive-based history of Ford Motor Company's international operations, which was my first book. As my next project, I was seeking to write an overall history of US business abroad. I wanted to figure out whether patterns I had found in my research on Ford abroad were typical (or atypical) of US corporations, in general, as the latter expanded worldwide.

AbstractThe essays assembled in this volume were initially presented at the concluding conference of the International Doctoral School “InterArt Studies” held at the Freie Universität Berlin from June 25-27, 2015. The school bore the label “international” not just because its students hailed from five different continents. Rather, it was called that because it was born out of the collaboration with the Copenhagen Doctoral School in Cultural Studies, Literature and the Arts, later joined by the Doctoral School of Goldsmiths College, London, and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences at Columbia University, New York. During these nine years (2006-2015) of research, it was generously funded by the German Research Council.

Abstract:
As ‘ethnic’ history — the nation-to-ethnic-ghetto version of migrant strategies — came to include the process of migration and the socialization, the ‘roots’ of the field were still traced to the Chicago School and Oscar Handlin. European scholarship in the initial stages centred on emigration to North America and followed us approaches. I discuss, to the 1950s, European and Canadian epistemologies of the field and briefly refer to research in other parts of the world. The essays discuss neglected, theoretically and conceptually complex origins of migration studies and history in the us: (1) the Chicago Women’s School of Sociology of Hull House reformers and women economists from the 1880s and the cluster of interdisciplinary scholars at Columbia University (Franz Boas et al.); (2) scholars at the University of Minnesota who included the migrants’ societies of origin; as well as (3) scholars in California (Bogardus, social distance scale) and (4) British Columbia who recovered data collected in the 1920s and read them in modern multicultural perspectives. Against these many threads the emphasis by Chicago scholars, E. Park in particular, and O. Handlin on disorganization and ‘marginal men’ are assessed.

Abstract:
This article focuses on high school to university transitions for Indigenous youth at universities in British Columbia, Canada. The study is premised on an Indigenous research design, which utilizes the concept of visioning and a storywork methodology (Archibald, 2008). The results challenge existing institutional and psychological approaches to transitions in revealing that they are deeply impacted by a variety of lived experiences and that a visioning process is vital to Indigenous youths’ participation in university. The paper concludes with implications for practitioners working in educational and Aboriginal community-based settings.

Abstract:
In 1954, the Department of Citizenship and Immigration commissioned anthropologist Harry Hawthorn to investigate problems faced by Indigenous people in British Columbia. This article focuses on Hawthorn’s report, The Indians of British Columbia (1958) and compares its recommendations with the original source questionnaire responses found at the University of British Columbia’s Archives and Special Collections. The responses examined, collected near the peak of day school enrollment in British Columbia, offer new insights directly from educators about their perspectives on the problems faced by Indigenous children attending day schools, and more broadly Indigenous communities as a whole. Key changes apparent in the questionnaire responses and 1958 report showcase the absence of Indigenous voices in any of the questionnaires and a lack of interest from educators in the communities, though such interest is claimed in the report. Both the questionnaires and Hawthorn’s resulting report recommend a consistent antithetical juxtaposition of Indigenous versus western, the discouragement of family ties, and the limitation of formal education to school-aged children. Such findings work to balance Hawthorn’s status as an advocate of Indigenous rights with the damaging realities indicated through and supported by his report. Through this analysis, we aim to further understandings of the impact of day schools on communities in British Columbia, and to view kinship within a reality of resilience and survival.
