Find and Pursue Your Passion

By: Rhona Bennett

Find Your Passion" ... It is a term that's being used a lot of late. So many people speak about it, but how many of us really know what it is and whether we have found it? If you haven't found it or you are not sure if you have, do you know how to discover it? "Find and Pursue Your Passion... even with a 'regular' job", is the next installment in my mini-book series designed to tackle BIG subjects in a smaller amount of time. These books are intended to cater to our NOW generation. Through this particular book, it is my mission to give you the tools to help you find your passion and live a life more fulfilled because of it. I know that some of us are parents, going back to school, working more than one job, etc... Upon completing this book, I can legitimately say that I have 3 jobs right now. I work at an herbal store for Alternative Health and Medicine (full-part timer!), I perform with the legendary R&B group En Vogue, and I am building my own company and the products (books, music, programming, paraphernalia, etc...) within it at Butterfly In Flight, Inc. You may be wondering how I can pull all of this off. Where does the energy come from? I invite you to read the book and find out ... Some of you are undoubtedly questioning if you even have the time to do this with your plate seeming so full. You could also be thinking that the chance for finding and pursuing your passion has passed you by because maybe you don't feel worthy anymore. Or, because you're going based off of old fears or what someone else or society says you 'should' and 'should not' be doing. Is this you? Come and explore with me in this book whether you'll feel the same way by its end. Through a new perspective and new choices, a new outcome is bound to happen. Living with passion is your birthright. Having that passion included in your everyday life could be just the thing you're looking for that can take your living to the next level.

Beyond The Fear

By: Rhona Bennett

By talking to people who are facing or have faced illness and adversity, I’ve gotten the opportunity to uncover and to share with you their vulnerability, power and strength. For that reason, I decided to lovingly call each person who contributed to this book, “a warrior”, because they were gracious enough to share their stories and testimonies of fear, grace and even triumphs in the midst and aftermath of their experiences, for the purpose of supporting and encouraging everyone who reads their words. Be encouraged... be inspired... and be motivated... to go Beyond the Fear.

Rupert Thomson

Critical Essays

By: Robert Duggan,Iain Robinson,Rhona Gordon,Kaye Mitchell,John McAuliffe

Rupert Thomson's innovative and unsettling writing ranges from dystopian alternative futures to meditations on crime and cultural memory, and from historical fictions to explorations of contemporary gender violence. The essays in this collection argue that Thomson's novels and memoir are compelling case-studies in late twentieth and early twenty-first-century literature, which engage with contemporary cultural and political preoccupations through persistently off-beat and often experimental literary forms, and trouble stable definitions of genre in the process. With chapters focusing on borders, panopticism, haunting, child sexual abuse, shame, atmosphere and intertextuality, this collection offers a critical introduction to an author whose work has been overlooked by the academy for too long.

Rethinking Learning for a Digital Age

How Learners are Shaping their Own Experiences

By: Rhona Sharpe,Helen Beetham,Sara de Freitas

Rethinking Learning for a Digital Age addresses the complex and diverse experiences of learners in a world embedded with digital technologies. The text combines first-hand accounts from learners with extensive research and analysis, including a developmental model for effective e-learning, and a wide range of strategies that digitally-connected learners are using to fit learning into their lives. A companion to Rethinking Pedagogy for a Digital Age (2007), this book focuses on how learners’ experiences of learning are changing and raises important challenges to the educational status quo. Rethinking Learning for a Digital Age: moves beyond stereotypes of the "net generation" to explore the diversity of e-learning experiences today analyses learners' experiences holistically, across the many technologies and learning opportunities they encounter reveals digital-age learners as creative actors and networkers in their own right, who make strategic choices about their use of digital applications and learning approaches. Today’s learners are active participants in their learning experiences and are shaping their own educational environments. Professors, learning practitioners, researchers, and policy-makers will find Rethinking Learning for a Digital Age invaluable for understanding the learning experience, and shaping their own responses.

Bloody Living

The Loss of Selfhood in the Plays of Marina Carr

By: Rhona Trench

This book deals with the process of negotiation with the past in the present through the plays of Marina Carr. The title frames the work, connoting the path towards destruction and the sense of lethargy acquired along the way. The book offers an in-depth and extensive reading of Carr's plays. In doing so, it surveys some of the destructive issues represented in the works and provides a series of social and cultural contexts to which the concerns in the works are related. Carr is best known for her trilogy, The Mai, Portia Coughlan and By the Bog of Cats..., and more recently Woman and Scarecrow, The Cordelia Dream and Marble. The plays are regularly concerned with notions of identity in the context of self-destruction, self-estrangement and displacement. This book applies Julia Kristeva's theory of abjection to Carr's plays in an effort to structure the loss the author identifies in the works. Themes of memory, history and myth are examined in the context of these concerns in provocative and confrontational ways.

Reaching Higher

The Power of Expectations in Schooling

By: Rhona S. Weinstein

“She has a funny way of looking at you,” a fourth-grader told Rhona Weinstein about his teacher. “She gets that look and says ‘I am very disappointed in you.’ I hate it when she does that. It makes me feel like I’m stupid. Just crazy, stupid, dumb.” Even young children know what adults think of them. All too often, they live down to expectations, as well as up to them. This book is about the context in which expectations play themselves out. Drawing upon a generation of research on self-fulfilling prophecies in education, including the author’s own extensive fieldwork in schools, Reaching Higher argues that our expectations of children are often too low. With compelling case studies, Weinstein shows that children typed early as “not very smart” can go on to accomplish far more than is expected of them by an educational system with too narrow a definition of ability and the way abilities should be nurtured. Weinstein faults the system, pointing out that teachers themselves are harnessed by policies that do not enable them to reach higher for all children. Her analysis takes us beyond current reforms that focus on accountability for test results. With rich descriptions of effective classrooms and schools, Weinstein makes a case for a changed system that will make the most of every child and enable students and teachers to engage more meaningfully in learning.

A Critical Analysis

The Hague Child Abduction Convention

A Critical Analysis

By: Rhona Schuz

International child abduction is one of the most emotionally charged and fascinating areas of family law practice. The 1980 Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction was the response of the international community to the increase in the phenomenon of parental child abduction. However, behind the widely acclaimed success of this Convention - which has now been ratified by more than 90 states - lie personal tragedies, academic controversy and diplomatic tensions. The continuing steady flow of case-law from the various Member States has resulted in the emergence of different approaches to the interpretation of key concepts in the Convention. In addition, over the years other global and regional legal instruments and the recommendations of the Special Commissions have had an impact on the implementation of the Convention. This book brings together all these strands and provides an up-to-date, clear and highly readable discussion of the international operation of the Abduction Convention together with in-depth critical academic analysis in light of the objectives of the Convention and other relevant legal norms, such as the 1989 UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. Throughout the book, examples are brought from case law in many jurisdictions and reference is made to relevant legal and social science literature and empirical research. Over the past decade, increasing focus has been placed on what might be seen as procedural issues, such as separate representation for children, undertakings, judicial liaison and mediation. The book analyses the significance of these developments and the extent to which they can help resolve the continuing tension between some of the objectives of the Convention and the interests of individual children. This book will be essential reading for judges, practitioners, researchers, students, policy-makers and others who are seeking a critical and informed analysis of the latest developments in international abduction law and practice. From the Foreword by Brenda Hale, Justice of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom 'This book is, as far as I am aware, the first scholarly monograph to study the interpretation and application of the Convention across the whole legal space which it occupies and to critically assess these in light of the object and purposes of the Convention and other relevant legal norms. Cases are drawn from many jurisdictions to discuss how different countries interpret the Convention and links are made with relevant statistical, social and psychological research in a thoughtful discussion of the significance of such material both to judicial decision-making and to policy development...a study which deserves to be read by anyone with an interest in the modern phenomenon of international child abduction, whether judge, practitioner, policy-maker, parent, researcher or scholar. There is plenty for us all to think about.
