Show moreThe purpose of this qualitative case study is to examine the role of the Literacy Outreach Worker at ‘City School’, an adult/continuing Education program located in a school district in the British Columbia interior. The primary research question is “How does a Literacy Outreach Worker (LOW) facilitate best practices in supporting an Adult/Continuing Education program?” Two sub-questions are: “How do stakeholders perceive the role of the Literacy Outreach Worker?” and "How can an adult education program's structure and personnel cultivate conditions that empower a LOW to perform the role effectively?” Data were collected through stakeholder interviews, document review and participant observation, and analyzed to derive conceptual categories. Results are presented and discussed in each of the six categories: support, attributes, reentry, liaison, workload and funding. Interpretation of results includes actionable recommendations, calls for a commitment to stable outreach funding and suggests directions for future research.

Show moreThe purpose of this paper is to highlight the evolution of privacy, as we enter a world of amplified surveillance. Proctoring technology is a software-based tool that is being implemented at post-secondary institutions. We will explore some of the key issues of its framework in relation to student privacy and academic integrity. As remote learning and exams become more mainstream, post-secondary schools want to ensure that their students are not completing exams in a dishonest fashion. We will look at the ramifications for both parties, students and institutions, to determine if there is a breach of privacy. The recording and storing of personal data have implications with privacy law and the human rights code. We want to explore the ‘big brother’ aspect of this technology and how post-secondary institutions are putting their students in an awkward position; conform or withdraw. Those who want to get a post-secondary education are subjected to data scrutiny in an unprecedented manner. Allowing post-secondary schools to hire third party private companies in order to gain access to student’s personal devices allows for a large window of privacy concern. The significance of the study is to raise awareness and find reasonable solutions to these concerns.

Show moreMotorboat use in ecotourism is not a typical tourism-related research focus. This interdisciplinary study addresses local concerns about ecotourism-related motorboat use in Tortuguero, Costa Rica, a popular and relatively isolated ecotourism destination. My study contemplates related impacts and management suggestions by incorporating social and physical science methods, tools, and techniques including: a custom Boat Observations and Traffic Evaluations (BOTEs) protocol, semi-structured interviews, and erosion-related measures of Total Suspended Solids (TSS). My results highlight respondent concerns regarding high levels of motorboat use, captains traveling at fast speeds, and increased erosion. From the results, I derived eight management-oriented suggestions, including local respondents' most frequent recommendation: the introduction of local motorboat speed limits. To address these recommendations in the future, management should prioritize reducing negative social and environmental boat use-related impacts--an essential undertaking in seeking a balance between ecotourism and motorboat use in Tortuguero. --Leaf i.

Show moreCarbon dioxide (CO\u2082) emissions from transportation contribute to anthropogenic climate change and are expected to increase significantly in the future. CO\u2082 emission inventories exist for various transportation modes at the global scale, but are rare at the subnational scale and even rarer for interurban (versus urban) transportation. In this dissertation, I present a detailed analysis of CO\u2082 emissions and emission factors for interurban transportation for the province of British Columbia (BC), Canada, and an analysis of a wide variety of emission scenarios for BC\u2019s interurban transportation system, comparing modelled emissions to the 2020 and 2050 greenhouse gas reduction targets set by the province\u2019s 2007 Greenhouse Gas Reduction Targets Act. Nine modes of transportation were included: passenger (private vehicles, ferries, aviation, intercity buses, trains) and freight (trucking, marine, rail, aviation). Annual CO\u2082 emissions from BC interurban transportation were approximately 11.2 Mt CO\u2082 in 2013, of which freight trucking was the greatest contributor with 48.5% of total CO\u2082 emissions. The second largest contributor was private vehicles (17.1% of total CO\u2082 emissions), while the third largest contributor was marine freight (16.8% of total CO\u2082 emissions). Of 106 scenarios modelling future changes to the interurban transportation system, only 15 were able to meet BC\u2019s 2050 emission reduction target, and only two were able to meet both the 2020 and 2050 targets (assuming interurban transportation had to meet the same emission reductions as prescribed for the economy as a whole). Only scenarios with the highest reduction rates were able to meet the reduction targets, and with every passing year, meeting them becomes more challenging.

Show moreThis thesis examines the construction of masculinity and sexuality in Michael Turner's The Pornographer's Poem. Drawing on a performative and fluid conception of gender identity, it explores how panoptic structures like the family, school, and athletics all help to shape masculinity. Significant attention is given to the interaction between hegemonic and subversive masculinities and sexualities. In this context, the protagonist's pornographies serve as a focal lens through which to inquire into these gender dynamics. The instabilities in identitarian processes are likewise reflected in unreliable narration, cyclical structures, interrogative discourses, and nesting techniques as they influence the act of narration. The thesis concludes that coercive, conflicting, complicated images of masculinity propagating in contemporary culture are difficult to navigate, especially without effective attachment figures. It attempts to propose more nuanced, multifarious, and dynamic interpretations of manhood that allow to transcend societal stereotypes and prescriptions arising from current systems of power and gender. --Leaf ii.

Show moreOceanic heatwaves have significant impacts on disease dynamics in marine ecosystems. Following an extreme heatwave in Nanoose Bay, British Columbia, Canada, a severe sea cucumber wasting event occurred that resulted in the mass mortality of Apostichopus californicus. Here, we sought to determine if heat stress in isolation could trigger wasting symptoms in A. californicus. We exposed sea cucumbers to (i) a simulated marine heatwave (22 °C), (ii) an elevated temperature treatment (17 °C), or (iii) control conditions (12 °C). We measured the presence of skin lesions, mortality, posture maintenance, antipredator defences, spawning, and organ evisceration during the 79-hour thermal exposure, as well as 7-days post-exposure. Both the 22 °C and 17 °C treatments elicited stress responses where individuals exhibited a reduced ability to maintain posture and an increase in stress spawning. The 22 °C heatwave was particularly stressful, as it was the only treatment where mortality was observed. However, none of the treatments induced wasting symptoms as observed in the Nanoose Bay event. This study provides evidence that sea cucumber wasting may not be triggered by heat stress in isolation, leaving the cause of the mass mortality event observed in Nanoose unknown.
