Lewis Walpole Library Fellowships and Travel Grants for Eighteenth-Century Studies
Applications Invited

The Lewis Walpole Library, a department of Yale University Library, invites applications to its 2011 - 2012 fellowship and travel grant program.

Located in Farmington, Connecticut, the Library offers short-term residential fellowships and travel grants to support research in the Library's rich collections of eighteenth century-mainly British-materials, including important holdings of prints, drawings, manuscripts, rare books, and paintings, as well as a growing collection of sources for the study of New England Native Americans.

Scholars undertaking postdoctoral or equivalent research, and doctoral candidates at work on a dissertation, are encouraged to apply. Recipients are expected to be in residence at the Library, to be free of other significant professional obligations during their stay, and to focus their research on the Lewis Walpole Library's collections. Fellows also have access to additional resources at Yale, including those in the Sterling Memorial Library, the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, and the Yale Center for British Art.

Lewis Walpole Library fellowships, usually for one month, include the cost of travel to and from Farmington, accommodation in an eighteenth-century house on the Library's campus, and a living allowance stipend (now $2,000). The Library's travel grants typically cover transportation costs for research trips of shorter duration and also include accommodation on site.

To apply for a fellowship or travel grant, candidates should send a curriculum vitae, including educational background, professional experience and publications, and a brief outline of the research proposal (not to exceed three pages) to:

Margaret K. Powell
W.S. Lewis Librarian and Executive Director
The Lewis Walpole Library
P.O. Box 1408
Farmington, CT 06034
USA

Fax: 860-677-6369

Application materials may also be submitted electronically to walpole@...<mailto:walpole@...>.

Two confidential letters of recommendation are also required by the application deadline. Letters should specifically address the merits of the candidate's project and application for the Lewis Walpole Library fellowship or travel grant. General letters of recommendation or dossier letters are not appropriate.

The application deadline is January 18, 2011. Awards will be announced in March and are expected to be taken up between July 2011 and June 2012.

Be the change you want to see in the world


Our achievements in placement and educational counselling services have been significant. Through numerous briefings and awareness raising presentations, we encouraged Armenian pupils and students to assume a responsibility for their future and become agents for positive changes. "Be the change you want to see in the world, Mahatma Gandhi. This is our motto. This is what we advise our students.


Our achievements


As the sole representative in Armenia of an internationally known educational establishment, The Regent's School in Thailand, we have administered Global Connect Scholarships Scheme since 2006 thanks to which approximately 80 Armenian students have been awarded with up to 90% scholarship to study IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education and/or International Baccalaureate (IB).

The graduates of the Regents School have reached enormous success in their academic life by receiving offers to study in globally recognized universities, such as University of Cambridge, UCL, Oxford University, Lancaster University, Exeter University, etc.

Satenik Boyajyan - I had studied at the Regents School for 3 years and I can proudly say those were the best years of my life so far! Cultural shock was drastic, but living with people from all over the world made me appreciate different cultures and traditions. I made friends with people so different to me, that sometimes its surreal. The Regents School gave me valuable academic skill and by scoring high grades both in IGCSE and A Levels examinations; I got admitted to the University of Bristol, which is considered as one of the best in the UK. Nowadays, while in the UK, I miss sunny days at the Regents, the trips to islands, the camps and the people.

Grigor Minasyan Studying at Regent School Thailand was like a journey of amazing experience and boundless opportunities. The Regents School left me not only with better knowledge, academic skills and good memories, but also with highly developed communicational, leadership, public speaking experience and friendship that has one friend waiting for me in every airport in the world whenever I visit them. Currently I am studying at University of Exeter, UK.

Signing agreements with numerous educational institutions, our educational advisors have assisted approximately 20 Armenian students to participate in various language and professional development courses and also get a degree in recognized institutes.


The full success stories are available on our website www.gb.am.


Our education consultants offer the required assistance and help to make sure that your dreams to study at a university of your choice come true.

RICHARD M. STALLMAN TO GIVE SPEECHES IN ARMENIA

Who is Richard M. Stallman (RMS)?


Richard Stallman is internationally renowned for his activism and involvement in various projects fighting for freer constraints on the use of software and information technologies. He pioneered the GNU Project, to create Unix-like software as well as initiating the 'free software movement', aimed at overcoming the monopolisation of software and information technologies by what he sees as excessive and invasive extension of copyright laws. Since the beginning of his odyssey in free software activism he has shot to global fame, received many honorary doctorates, and written many influential documents about, amongst other things, software freedom, the concepts of copyright and copyleft and internet ethics.


It is an honour for KASA Swiss Humanitarian Foundation to host Richard Stallman in Armenia, where he will give speeches in Yerevan and Gyumri.
 


The topics of the speeches are:


SPEECH 1-YEREVAN: Free Software: Ethics and the Internet


Where: Hall after Palians, Department of International Relations, 4th floor, Yerevan State University, Yerevan

When: November 16 at 6:30 pm

Speech language: ENGLISH

The Free Software Movement campaigns for computer users' freedom to cooperate and control their own computing.  The Free Software Movement developed the GNU operating system, typically used together with the kernel Linux, specifically to make these freedoms possible.

 
SPEECH 2 -YEREVAN: Free Digital Society

Where: Hall # 201, Musical School after Sayat-Nova, Yerevan

When: November 18 at 6:30 pm

Speech language:
ENGLISH

Activities directed at “including” more people in the use of digital technology are predicated on the assumption that such inclusion is invariably a good thing.  It appears so, when judged solely by immediate practical convenience.  However, if we also judge in terms of human rights, whether digital inclusion is good or bad depends on what kind of digital world we are to be included in.  If we wish to work towards digital inclusion as a goal, it behooves us to make sure it is the good kind.


SPEECH 3-GYUMRI: Free Software and Your Freedom


Where:
Hall of Diramayr Vocational School (6 Charents , Ani district) , Gyumri

When: November 19 at 3:00 pm

Speech language: ENGLISH

Richard Stallman will speak about the goals and philosophy of the Free Software Movement, and the status and history of the GNU operating system, which in combination with the kernel Linux is now used by tens of millions of users world-wide.

Call for Papers


Reforms in Islamic Education
2-day International Conference 
Saturday 9 – Sunday 10 April 2011

University of Cambridge

The post-9/11 era has witnessed intense international interest and scrutiny of Islamic education as well as Islamic schools. While there has been a growing field of research on reforms in Islamic education, the tendency is to view these reforms as reactions to external pressure and expectations, rather than actions initiated, contested and negotiated by and among Muslims. What is often overlooked is the need to locate these reforms within broad historical, political and socio-cultural contexts beyond the events of 9/11.

This 2-day conference, jointly organised by the Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Centre of Islamic Studies (Cambridge) and the Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Centre for the Study of Islam in the Contemporary World (Edinburgh), aims to fill this gap. The conference will bring together internationally renowned academics to raise awareness on reforms in Islamic education by presenting critical perspectives and discussing practical suggestions.

Islamic education refers to all forms of teaching and learning, whether formal, informal or non-formal, that are based on the principles and values of Islam. An Islamic school is any educational institution that emphasises the transmission of Islamic knowledge and the inculcation of Islamic values and ethos. Encompassing a variety of types and levels, Islamic schools are known by different names across societies, such as 'madrasa', 'pesantren', 'Darul Uloom', 'Islamic faith school' and 'Islamic higher institution'.

In addition to invited speakers, the conference offers a platform for scholars and practitioners to present their work on reforms in Islamic education. We welcome papers that focus on topics such as the following:

• Definitions & Theoretical Perspectives 
- Definitions and interpretations of 'Islamic education', 'Islamic schools' and 'reforms' 
- Historical, philosophical, anthropological, religious and methodological perspectives on reforms in Islamic education and Islamic schools 
- General issues and challenges related to reforms in Islamic education/schools in a modern and plural world

• Islamic Schools, Society & Reforms 
- Islamic education, Islamic schools and global terrorism 
- Islamic education, Islamic schools and modernity: globalisation, knowledge-based economy, thinking skills, science and technology etc.
- Islamic education, Islamic schools and Muslim minorities 
- Islamic education, Islamic schools and the West: liberal democracy, hybrid citizenship, secularism, modernisation, globalisation, gender relations, pluralism, multiculturalism etc. 
- Islamic knowledge, curriculum and pedagogy, Islamisation of knowledge 
- Other educational issues: citizenship education, teaching materials, assessment, teacher education, state funding etc.

• Comparative Studies 
- Case studies of Islamic education: formal (e.g. schools), non-formal (e.g. Muslim organisations), informal (e.g. network of Muslims) 
- Case studies of Islamic schools: their history, characteristics, programmes, innovation, issues, challenges, and prospects 
- Reforms in Islamic schools: motivations for reforms, nature of reforms, tensions, resistance, contestations and negotiations between Muslims and non-Muslims, and among the Muslims themselves, outcomes of reforms 
- Implications of the reforms: social, political, economic, cultural, religious etc. 
- Prospects and recommendations: practical suggestions for policymakers, educators, academics and other stakeholders

The conference will cover accommodation and meals for selected presenters.

Poster is available here.

Please submit a 300-word abstract and a CV of maximum one page to charlene.tan@... by 24 December 2010.

>UMaine’s Department of Communication & Journalism has an exciting and rapidly
developing graduate program<http://cmj.umaine.edu/graduate-program/> and we
would love to hear from you about your graduate plans to see if we might be a
good fit for each other.  Maine currently has 11 graduate faculty, including
tenure, tenure-track, or cooperating members.  We have 24 graduate students,
including 18 funded students, 16 on teaching assistantships.  We have 6 PhDs
(our doctoral program is 4 years old) and are on pace to have a 50/50 split of
funded masters and doctoral students in two years, if not next year.  Our first
doctoral graduate began her tenure-track appointment at UNC-Wilmington this
Fall.  Our Masters students are regularly admitted to the top doctoral programs
around the country or begin careers in the private and public sectors.  We
strive to create a balanced program where MAs and PhDs all are given the
attention they deserve.  We also are part of an exciting interdisciplinary
initiative on sustainability funded by NSF (see below). We offer a
masters<http://cmj.umaine.edu/graduate-program/2/> with tracks in  Communication
and Mass Communication that has an excellent completion rate.  Our  MAs have
been very successful at landing in nationally recognized doctoral  programs or
in finding post-graduate employment. We offer a
doctorate<http://cmj.umaine.edu/graduate-program/3/> with an  interdisciplinary
concentration.  PhDs combine a substantial program of  Communication or Mass
Communication courses with a concentration in fields such  as Disability
Studies, English, History, Psychology, or Women’s Studies.  We are  in the
process of establishing concentrations in Sustainability Science and  other
fields.  Doctoral students can design concentrations as well. Speaking of
sustainability, in 2009, the University of Maine was awarded a $20M  EPSCoR
grant to found the Sustainability Solutions Initiative
(SSI)<http://www.umaine.edu/sustainabilitysolutions/>.  Bringing together over
15 different disciplines, SSI is designed to produce research in partnership
with community stakeholders with the overarching of creating sustainable
socio-ecological and economic systems.  Professor Laura Lindenfeld, one of our
graduate faculty and a member of the Margaret Chase Smith Policy Center, is
directing the Knowledge to Action research team on the grant.  Communication &
Journalism currently has several PhD and Masters students connected with the
SSI. If you are thinking finishing your bachelors and considering graduate
school or  if you are putting together materials for doctoral programs, please
contact me  to find more about our program.  I happy to chat any time. If you
are going to NCA this year, Maine will have a booth at the Grad Open  House,

Dear Colleagues:

A new but fast growing field of study termed as business anthropology is drawing
attention from the scholars. Universities and colleges in the US and Europe
start to offer courses or programs in business anthropology in recnet years. I
have been involved in this field for its development since 1999. A discussion
group is established to share ideas about the development and new ideas in the
field. Please join in the group by visiting my blog that was built a few days
ago then click the button below the tractors

Looking for a SME for a project on post-Soviet transitions

I am currently preparing an application for a Marie Curie IAPP (Industry
Academia Partnership and Pathways) and we are short of one partner.

The project explores the role of informality in political and economic
transformation of some former USSR republics (Moldova, Ukraine, Belarus, Russia,
Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia) after 1991. It includes some elements of research
and training for involved fellows

We are specifically looking for

a private sector partner (no NGO) based in the EU or in an associate country
(Norway, Serbia, Turkey, Iceland, Switzerland). Private sector partner is an
organization gaining the majority of its revenues through exposure to market
competition (consultancies, research companies and many more are eligible, as
long as they earn 51% of their revenue through commercial means)

with interest in post-Soviet affairs (broadly defined, you will be able to
develop your own research in the framework of the project objectives

willing to second some of its staff to other universities for training and
willing to host some researchers (not more than 1-2 per year over a 48 month
period). Secondment is paid 100% by the project


NB Unfortunately single researchers and NGOs are not eligible for this scheme


If you think your company/organization fits this profile please get back to me
as soon as possible. The deadline is in a month and there are a few documents we
need to prepare.

Thank you

Abel

FULL PAPERS DUE FOR REFEREEING: Monday 7th February 2011 ABSTRACTS FOR NON-REFEREED PAPERS: Monday 7th February 2011 Stream Coordinators: Clare Lloyd and Scott Rickard Digital communication is impacting on our everyday lives, constantly shifting and changing our personal relationships, and enhancing opportunities to interact with others. Or does it? What challenges lie ahead in an era when manufacturers dominate the market place, and challenge our conceptions of our digital everyday lives with new apps, services and devices? And in what ways are we adopting, adapting, and appropriating technologies to improve our everyday communications? How are social participation sites challenging our personal understanding of risk, control and privacy? Or perhaps our identities are being challenged by the ubiquitous camera; reconceptualising our notions of who we are, and our locations both physical and virtual? How are marginalised communities and organisations engaging with digital communications; is the digital divide widening or narrowing? The mobile, digital and social media stream welcomes submissions that address the conference theme, and or contemporary issues in relation to mobile communications, mobile media, social media, and digital media.
