In Québec, community psychologists have played an important role in the definition and measurement of family violence and conjugal violence, as well as proposing interventions to prevent these problems. Following the lead of [Bouchard] ([Chamberland], Bouchard, & Beaudry, 1986), Québec community psychologists have collaborated with others on large-scale epidemiological investigations on the prevalence of child abuse (Clément & Chamberland, 2007; Clément, Chamberland, & Trocmé, in press), conjugal violence (Lévesque, Clément, & Chamberland, 2007), and the co-occurrence of these two forms of violence (Lévesque et al., 2007). [Lavergne, C, Dufour], Trocmé, and Larrivée (2008) examined the rates of placement of minority and Aboriginal children in the child welfare system, an...

The goal of educators to cultivate reflective thinkers is enhanced through the inquiry-focused school library program proposed by Kuhlthau. The authors present reflection, an essential component of inquiry, as a disposition that can be "caught, taught and acquired" through a process of modeling in a school library environment which is designed to support the development of this essential critical thinking skill. A framework for strengthening the disposition of reflection is presented, based on Dewey's and Schön's work on reflection and Bransford, Brown and Cocking's work on learning. The stages of reflection and inquiry are compared to dispositions-in-action, indicating their potential for enhancing student learning and understanding. Guidelines and practical suggestions are recommended...

At the end of the 20th century, Chinese-foreign cooperation in running schools has appeared. Especially after our country's accession to WTO, the development of Chinese-foreign cooperation in running schools has remarkably developed with a larger size appearance over time. As a result, the educational levels constantly improve and educational models increasingly diversify. However, with the profound development of Chinese-foreign cooperation in running schools, various new questions emerge. The existing researches have broad discussed and proposed some constructive strategies and suggestions. Thus, those researches concentrate on the existing problems in Chinese-foreign cooperation in running schools with specific regional observation and lack of general analysis.

I am a Christian and I disagree with Dr. W. Gifford Jones' conclusion. When I was younger, I watched a documentary on two female twins conjoined at the head. They seemed happy. Both had significant others and led wonderful lives. They were asked if it were possible, would they want to be separated. They said they would not. They had become such wonderful friends and enjoyed their lives together and did not wish to be separated. It is not fair to judge someone's life by your own version of normal. I thought people were over prejudice. Maybe it is time for our premier to resolve this issue of the Devils Lake outlet. Maybe Gary Doer should call on Manitobans to cancel their North Dakota shopping trips and camping trips. Let's hit them where it hurts -- in the pocket book. For those who ca...

A culture of inquiry is emerging from research-based information literacy instruction that takes place in school libraries. An ethnographic approach views the culture of inquiry through two lenses: (1) cultural anthropology and an emerging theory of evidence-based information literacy instruction, and (2) Tylor's anthropological definition of culture which serves as a framework to examine the knowledge, beliefs, art, morals, law, and customs of instruction. An emerging theory of information literacy instruction unique to school libraries identifies constructivist learning theory as the knowledge source and evidence-based practice as the underlying belief. The art of teaching in this culture is described in ten corollaries to the theory. Morals and law emerge from 21st century initiative...

The defeatist attitude portrayed in this editorial is unbelievable in today's world of crowded emergency rooms and with health-care issues in the headlines every day. At least we have a starting point: including physical activity as a prerequisite to a high school diploma. All good ideas take formulation, evaluation and repeated revision. What high school students are doing now is simply not working. Ask any health-care practitioner in this province about the knowledge base of the average health-care consumer, and they will tell you it is sorely lacking. To say that it is humiliating to "force" high school students to exercise undermines all of those gifted athletes who may never excel at calculus or chemistry. Many prerequisites to university are "forced" upon students who may prefer b...
