In this essay I call attention to segregation within the workplace, specifically the divide between maintenance worker (ABM staff), student, and the SAIC institution at whole. Through using a personal project as a case study to ground my critical interest, I delve into labor politics part of a capital system that leave us feeling underpowered, under appreciated, and with little to no say in how we choose to have relationships with those who we share space with. Through breaking down terms and policies like "liability" and "fraternization," I strive to disclose the realities they bare on our true human connection. I aim to understand how something so critical to society and our daily lives, that of labor, has become commoditized through a system which values profit and fears connection, rather than promoting well-being of all. In doing so, we as workers and individuals of communities become alienated from each other, our place of work and most importantly lose the ability to have empathy for one another. Through the power of storytelling and opening ourselves up to be aware of these systems, my hope is that it can allow for all individual's contributing to spaces beyond themselves to reconsider these spaces as shared, and truly act on that notion. More specifically, I want to reconsider the work place as a collective space. In such a collective space, individuals can be cognitive of each other's' service through communication, dialogue, every day interaction, empathy, solidarity and experience. I believe these collective spaces to render as "possible futures," ones which can challenge our current modes of recognition and gratitude for each other, therefore creating built realities where shared space inhabits common ground.

Scientific literacy is generally valued and acknowledged among educators as a desirable student learning outcome. However, what scientific literacy really means in terms of classroom practice and student learning is debatable due to the inherent complexity of the term and varying expectations of what it means for learning outcomes. To date the teacher voice has been noticeably absent from this debate even though the very nature of teacher expertise lies at the heart of the processes which shape students{u2019} scientific literacy. The chapters that comprise this book tap into the expertise of a group of primary teachers from Our Lady of Good Counsel (OLGC), a primary school that chose to actively engage in teaching for scientific literacy. By analyzing the insights and thinking that emerged as they attempted to unravel some of the pedagogical complexities associated with constructing an understanding of scientific literacy in their own classrooms, these teachers demonstrate the professional knowledge and skill inherent in the expertise of teaching and learning science in a primary classroom. The chapters in this book illustrate the processes and structures that were created at OGLC to provide the conditions that allowed these teachers to explore and build on the range of ideas that informed their approach to teaching for scientific literacy. This book is a compelling example of how a whole school approach to scientific literacy can make a difference for students{u2019} learning of science and offer a concrete example of the development of professional knowledge and practice of teachers

This paper explores the development of three pre-service science teacher educators' understandings of some critical incidents in their development of science teachers that has impacted on the manner in which they teach about teaching in a teacher preparation program. The study draws on self-study methodology by situating their reflection on practice within a critical discourse whereby reframing has been important in learning through a reconsideration from particular critical incidents in their high school science teaching experiences. The authors argue that through critical reflection on practice, as illustrated in this paper, that the beginnings of the articulation and documentation of a knowledge base of teaching about teaching might be initiated. They therefore offer some of their emerging views on what that knowledge base might encompass through some assertions of practice that they believe impact on their teaching about teaching.

2013 wurde in Cleveland Ariel Castro verhaftet, der 10 Jahre lang 3 junge Frauen unter grauenvollen Bedingungen gefangen hielt. 2 von ihnen erzählen ihr Erleben des Martyriums, eingefügt die Geschichte des Entführers und der Ermittlungen, die Situation der verzweifelten Angehörigen. Rezension 2013 wurde Ariel Castro verhaftet, der in Cleveland 3 junge Mädchen entführt und 10 Jahre unter grauenvollen Bedingungen, sie fortwährend vergewaltigend, eingesperrt hatte. Kurz darauf erhängte er sich in seiner Zelle. Michelle Knight, sein 1. Opfer, beschrieb bereits das Martyrium der 3 ("Die Unzerbrechliche", ID-A 24/14), in diesem Titel der beiden anderen kommt sie im Text fast nicht, im Fototeil gar nicht vor. Versetzt erzählen beide ihr Erleben, eingefügt die Geschichte des Entführers, der jeweilige Stand der Suche nach ihnen, Irrwege und Fehler der Ermittlungen, die Situation der verzweifelten Angehörigen. 2006 stirbt ihre Mutter mit 43 an einem Herzinfarkt, im selben Jahr bringt Amanda Berry unter furchtbaren Bedingungen eine Tochter zur Welt. 6 Jahre ist das kleine Kind mitgefangen, doch unerwartete Liebe zu dieser Tochter bringt den Täter zunehmend aus dem Konzept, eröffnet den jungen Frauen die Chance zur Flucht. Der Fall erregte nicht nur in Amerika Aufsehen, schwer einzuschätzen jedoch, ob ein 2. Titel darüber bei uns Bestseller werden kann wie o.g. (2)

International audience ; ObjectivesThis study aimed to assess the safety and effectiveness of self-managed misoprostol abortions obtained outside of the formal health system in Lagos State, Nigeria.DesignThis was a prospective cohort study among women using misoprostol-containing medications purchased from drug sellers. Three telephone-administered surveys were conducted over 1 month.SettingData were collected in 2018 in six local government areas in Lagos State.ParticipantsDrug sellers attempted to recruit all women who purchased misoprostol-containing medication. To remain in the study, participants had to be female and aged 18–49, and had to have purchased the medication for the purpose of abortion. Of 501 women initially recruited, 446 were eligible for the full study, and 394 completed all three surveys.Primary and secondary outcome measuresUsing self-reported measures, we assessed the quality of information provided by drug sellers; the prevalence of potential complications; and the proportion with completed abortions.ResultsAlthough drug sellers provided inadequate information about the pills, 94% of the sample reported a complete abortion without surgical intervention about 1 month after taking the medication. Assuming a conservative scenario where all individuals lost to follow-up had failed terminations, the completion rate dropped to 87%. While 86 women reported physical symptoms suggestive of complications, only six of them reported wanting or needing health facility care and four subsequently obtained care.ConclusionsDrug sellers are an important source of medical abortion in this setting. Despite the limitations of self-report, many women appear to have effectively self-administered misoprostol. Additional research is needed to expand the evidence on the safety and effectiveness of self-use of misoprostol for abortion in restrictive settings, and to inform approaches that support the health and well-being of people who use this method of abortion.

Although codes of conduct and ethics provide guidance, professionals have to exercise their own judgement in increasingly complex and demanding roles and work contexts when applying them to practice. At times, this can lead to conflict between personal, professional and interprofessional ethics due to the dynamics of the person-centred environment they function in. This interdisciplinary book draws on the perspectives of 40 authors from four continents to explore the dynamics of ethical dilemmas using theory, research and practice-based examples. Overall, the book will help to spearhead the debate about these ethical dilemmas, and ways of working with them, in an informed manner. It will make ideal reading for students, academics and professionals
