International Journal of Playwork Practice (Journals)

ISSN 2689-9124

'Playwork' originated in the adventure playgrounds created in the middle of the 20th century to provide children's spaces within urban environments. Playwork practice is currently used by professionals working with children in an extensive range of international settings, from parks to prisons and deserts to development projects. The practice of playwork draws on a number of diverse disciplines for its theoretical and technical foundations, and playwork practice and its origins are studied by scholars from a wide range of fields.

International Journal of Playwork Practice aims to advance playwork research and practice by providing the first ever interdisciplinary platform for the publication and dissemination of relevant scholarship to playwork practice. IJPP bridges the playwork theory-practice divide by facilitating practitioner access to relevant research, and also enables researchers interested in playwork to access a hitherto inaccessible field of practice and its literature.

La BloGoteca de Babel (Journals)

Érase una vez un joven estudiante que se puso a escribir una redacción asignada por su profesora. Érase una vez una profesora de español presentando la asignatura de la misma redacción a su clase. Érase una vez dos personas, ese mismo estudiante y dicho profesor, que se preguntaron a la vez, ¿Para quién? Y a continuación, ¿Para qué?

Demasiadas veces a lo largo de los años, nos hemos encontrado escribiendo redacciones dirigidas y destinadas a los ojos de una sola alma. Esta misma—nuestra querida profesora—se encuentra leyendo, juzgando, calificando y al final lamentablemente tirando—sea dicha redacción una de calidad normal, pésima o sobresaliente—ese trabajo en la canasta del olvido. Una situación lamentable, pero, en fin, en las circunstancias de antaño, quizá sin remedio. Hoy día, con la ayuda de la tecnología de las redes, los blogs y los wikis, ya no existe por qué escribir y corregir hacia “la nada”. El trabajo—sangre, sudor, (sonrisas) y lágrimas—del estudiante debe y puede servir de algo. Y la profesora ya lo puede y lo debe enseñar con la intención de que el estudiante, a través de su trabajo, entre en diálogo más allá de su despacho u oficina, y de que cada redacción sea vista como una verdadera comunicación con un publico de iguales.

Esta es la intención de la BloGoteca de Babel, una revista de trabajos estudiantiles, trabajos una vez escritos solo para una clase, para una profesora o profesor, pero que, por su alta calidad ahora tendrán una voz y un público mucho más amplio. En este primer volumen se ven trabajos escritos de estudiantes de una variedad de experiencias con el español, desde redacciones preparadas para SPAN 3520 hasta un dossier de trabajos finales de estudiantes graduados llevando a cabo investigaciones desde España. En cada uno de los trabajos, el estudiante puede encontrar ejemplos de las mejores ideas y la mejor expresión de ellas de los estudiantes del año académico 2009-2010 en BGSU.

Pero mucho más allá que una muestra de lo mejor, nuestra esperanza es que con la colocación de estos ensayos se inicie una manera de acercamiento a la investigación de la literatura, cultura y lengua española en BGSU. Esperamos que la investigación por parte de estudiantes a todos niveles del español en BG sea parte de un diálogo que transcienda los límites del tiempo y del espacio. Con la tecnología, en particular la de los blogs, esperamos crear un diálogo mucho más allá de la “revista tradicional”. Por ende, invitamos no sólo a lectura de los ensayos seleccionados, sino a compartir sus comentarios y criticas. Y luego comentarios y críticas de los comentarios. Anticipamos así, una revista que funciona tanto como una revista tradicional como además un espacio “wiki” de desarrollo de ideas.

En fin, esperamos la colaboración de todos con la esperanza de que las conversaciones desarrolladas en nuestras aulas y nuestros ordenadores no terminen nunca.

Y ahora, a leer,
Pedro Porbén
Nathan Richardson
Valeria Grinberg Pla

The Visions editors have digitized the publications Recreation Management and Employee Service Management. The national organization that published these materials discontinued these publications.

The digitization is record quality, and the Visions editors are hoping to improve the quality of the digitization as time moves forward.

This has been a laborious project that will continue in the future, because several issues of the publications are missing. If you know anyone who has these missing issues, please contact the Visions editors so we can complete the collection.

Call For Proposals

Project 400: Call for Papers . The deadline for submission of a 250-word abstract is January 24, 2020 to Dr. Mittie Davis Jones at m.d.jones97@csuohio.edu.

The theme of this upcoming Special Issue is “Celebrating 400 Years in the United States: Our Lived Experience.”

Context: The year 2019 marks 400 years since 20 enslaved Africans arrived in Jamestown, Virginia, in 1619, representing the earliest documented record of Blacks in, what is now, America. While there was no legal institution of slavery in the colony of Virginia, the indentured servitude which was the dominant labor system, rapidly gave way to racial slavery by 1640. John Punch became the first legally documented enslaved African in the colony of Virginia. The institution of slavery endured until 1865 and was followed by almost 100 years of Jim Crow racial segregation.

This 400-year history of racial oppression created a racially-stratified society in which racial inequities are deeply embedded in virtually every structural institution and system in American society. Although stigmatized by a philosophy of White supremacy and black inferiority, black Americans persevered and created vibrant communities, religious and cultural institutions, as well as civic and political organizations that forged racial pride and campaigned against the injustice they suffered.

This call for papers solicits manuscripts that document this remarkably rich, painful, and triumphant history.

Special Guest Editor: Ronnie Dunn, Ph.D.
Interim Chief Diversity & Inclusion Officer
Associate Professor of Urban Studies
Executive Editor: Antonio Medina Rivera, Ph.D.
Chair and Professor, Department of World Languages, Literatures, and Culture.

Notification of acceptance of abstract: January 31, 2020

Deadline for submission of manuscripts: Manuscripts should be submitted no later than March 31, 2020. Authors are encouraged to contact Dr. Medina-Rivera if they have questions about the journal format.

Luna de la cosecha (Modern Languages and Literatures)

¡Bienvenidos a Luna de la Cosecha, revista de escritura creativa de Kenyon College!

Somos una comunidad que aprecia la palabra escrita, que como la luna de la cosecha nos ilumina a todos.

 La luna ha estado asociada siempre con la belleza, la creatividad; y la cosecha, con el trabajo físico, el cultivar. Estos son valores que la presente publicación, creada por el programa de español de Kenyon College, quisiera fomentar. El propósito es ofrecer a nuestros estudiantes y cualquier persona interesada, de nuestra universidad y de cualquier parte, la oportunidad de compartir sus creaciones literarias. Abrigamos la esperanza de que se utilice no sólo para mostrar la creatividad propia, sino además para comentar de manera constructiva las obras de los demás. En definitiva, nos proponemos impulsar la participación y la integración en la comunidad literaria de lengua española, de cuyas obras y valores nos sentimos legítimamente orgullosos. La luna de la cosecha ocurre, en el hemisferio boreal, en torno al 23 de septiembre; y en el austral, al 21 de marzo. Esos serán los días en que renovaremos la revista (en septiembre, con los trabajos presentados, discutidos y aprobados por nuestro comité de lectores durante la primavera; y en marzo, con los del otoño). Si quisiera vincularse, de manera individual o institucional, a este esfuerzo y su cometido, no dude en contactarnos por esta misma vía.
