  • dc.title: Fostering Partnership Learning Communities: The Impact of Utilising International Student Field Trips to Facilitate and Co-Create Pedagogic Community Collaborations dc.contributor.author: Chouhan, Jagdish; Handsley, Stephen; Herriot, Christopher; McGowan, Marilyn dc.description.abstract: This article seeks to evaluate the impact of an International partnership, between 台湾裸聊直播 (DMU), a UK based Higher Education (HE) institution, and Evans High School, a Community Partnership SchoolTM, located in the US state of Florida. Informed by the application of Maslow鈥檚 hierarchy of need, the success of Evans High School is illustrated in statistical reports conveyed by the school during DMU鈥檚 biannual study visits to the campus. The range of external providers has addressed many of the needs of students who otherwise would refrain from engaging in the learning process due to health, socio-economic, emotional, and cultural barriers. Thus, a disempowered, disadvantaged community has been encouraged to participate in their children鈥檚 education. The study visit has furnished ample evidence of the efficacy of the methodologies employed in this partnership initiative. However, the authors contend this success could be further enhanced by extending the partnership to embrace the approach and techniques of informal education, effectively utilised by Hope Community Centre in Apopka, especially in their 鈥淪in Fronteras鈥� project. This approach could be of significant benefit in building self-esteem and self-confidence in Evans鈥� students, enhancing extra-curricular activities, whilst delivering a co-created curriculum in a fun and engaging manner, drawing those at risk of marginalisation, academic failure, or under-achievement back into the mainstream. This utilisation of Freirean informal education praxis, based around empowering students, would prepare students for a post-school environment which lacks the meritocratic opportunities they may have been socialised to expect, whilst extending Evans鈥� impact far beyond the parameters of educational attainment. dc.description: The file attached to this record is the author's final peer reviewed version.

  • dc.title: Sociology and Nursing: role performance in a psychiatric setting dc.contributor.author: Handsley, Stephen; Stocks, Susan dc.description.abstract: The role of sociology in nursing continues to cast new light on many aspects of health and illness. Over the last 20 years, nursing practice has seen sociological theory become a valuable clinical tool, both in the diagnosis and prognosis of a wide range of illnesses and long-term conditions.Nevertheless, of these, the sociological examination of mental health problems and itsimpact upon nursing practitioners has received little coverage, simply because, as a discipline, mental health nursing has historically been wedded to a biomedical model, one which continues to embrace psychiatry/psychology as the driving force in the diagnosis and treatment of psychopathology. Adopting a sociological approach, this paper brings to light previously unexplored insights into the way nurses interact with patients experiencing mental health problems. Drawing on social interactionist methodology, this paper considers depression and other mental health problems in relation to current psychiatric nursing practice. Specifically, the paper focuses on aspects of role performance and interpersonal care in a psychiatric setting, and the impact the individual role may have on the wider aspects of institutional and official practices. The paper concludes by making a number of recommendations/observations for nursing practice. dc.description: 漏 2009 The Authors Journal compilation 漏 2009 Australian College of Mental Health Nurses Inc.
