How Principals Exercise Transformative Leadership in Urban Schools in Disadvantaged Areas in Montréal, Canada

This study aims at understanding how elementary school principals in disadvantaged areas implement transformative leadership for social justice. Our previous studies showed that social justice is rarely present in principals’ discourse. Using a transformative leadership framework, we analysed data from the observation of these school principals. Data failed to show evidence of transformative behaviour on the part of principals. Because of some concerns and questions that arose from these findings, we found and interviewed three outstanding elementary school principals who are implementing transformative leadership in their schools. In contrast with our previous data, our present data shows that these principals have a rich view of social justice, that they see instances of inequities in their schools, that they identify situations in which they can implement transformative leadership, and that they report intervening to fight inequities. We also discuss the implications of these results in the follow-up of our research programme.

Multiple Antibiotic Resistances of Vibrio Isolates from Coastal and Brackish Water Areas

An experiment was designed to assess the occurrence of multiple antibiotic resistances in Vibrio sp from different (brackish and marine) environments. Water samples front nine marine landing sites and two coastal inland aquaculture farms were screened for the Vibrio spp and assessed their resistance to twenty-two different antibiotics, which arc commonly encountered in the aquatic ecosystem. Tissue samples (shrimp, mussel and sepia) were tested from the sampling site with highest antibiotic resistance. Of' the total 119 Vibrio isolates, 16. 8% were susceptible to all antibiotics. Of the resistant (83.19%) Vibrio strains, 30.3% were resistant against three antibiotics, 55.5% were resistant against 4-10 antibiotics, 14.14% were resistant against more than 10 antibiotics and 54% have shown multiple antibiotics resistance (MAR). Antibiotic resistance index was higher in Coastal 3, 6, Aqua farm 2 in isolates from water samples and all the tissues tested. Interestingly, incidence of antibiotic resistance in isolates from water samples was comparatively lower in aquaculture farms than that observed in coastal areas. Highest incidence of antibiotic resistance was evident against Amoxycillin, Ampicillin, Carbencillin and Cefuroxime followed by Rilanipicin and Streptomycin and lowest against Chloramphenicol, Tetracycline, Chlortetracycline, Furazolidone, Nalidixic acid, Gentamycin Sulphafurazole, Trimcthoprinr, Neomycin and Amikacin irrespective of the sampling sites. Results from various tissue samples collected from the sites of highest antibiotic resistance indicated that antibiotic resistance Vibrio spp collected from fish and tissue samples were higher than that of water samples. Overall results indicated that persistent use of antibiotics against diseases in human beings and other life forms may pollute the aquatic system and their impact on developing antibiotic resistant Vibrio sp may be a serious threat in addition to the use of antibiotics in aquaculture farms.

Dynamics of Land Use in Recently Settled Forest Areas: a Case Study of Attappady , Kerala

The present study on the dynamics of land use in recently settled forest areas. In the course of events, tribals lost their land; the demographic structure of Attappady changed; the cropping pattern got diversified; traditional techniques of production were ruined; new crops and new techniques of cultivation came to stay; and the entire cost and return structure of production underwent radical change. Migration to Attappady is essentially a continuation of the Malabar migration process from Travancore, through, some people from Tamil Nadu also had migrated to this region earlier. The demographic structure, along with land structure, has changed in favour of the settlers within a short span of time. Lack of security of ownership has acted as a strong reason for wanton exploitation of land resources. The major influencing factors on crop choices among settlers were labour endowment, date of settlement and education. Attappady is an unique ecosystem in Kerala characterized by many interdependables. The latest hand of environmental degradation is a grave danger especially on sloppy terrains,which are under cultivation of tapioca and dry annual crops like groundnuts, cotton, grams etc. Soil erosion as a result of the unplanned cultivation of these crops has resulted in dramatic decline in soil fertility and hence low crop productivity. This calls for a watershed management approach for the sustainable development of the region. A progressive agrarian transformation is warranted to maintain the homegarden as a sustainable production system in ecological and socio-economic terms.

Hydrogeological, Geophysical And Geochemical Studies In Parts Of Coastal And Midland Areas, Central Kerala - A Gis Approach

The present study deals with the different hydrogeological characteristics of the coastal region of central Kerala and a comparative analysis with corresponding hard rock terrain. The coastal regions lie in areas where the aquifer systems discharge groundwater ultimately into the sea. Groundwater development in such regions will require a precise understanding of the complex mechanism of the saline and fresh water relationship, so that the withdrawals are so regulated as to avoid situations leading to upcoming of the saline groundwater bodies as also to prevent migration of sea water ingress further inland. Coastal tracts of Kerala are formed by several drainage systems. Thick pile of semi-consolidated and consolidated sediments from Tertiary to Recent age underlies it. These sediments comprise phreatic and confined aquifer systems. The corresponding hard rock terrain is encountered with laterites and underlined by the Precambrian metamorphic rocks. Supply of water from hard rock terrain is rather limited. This may be due to the small pore size, low degree of interconnectivity and low extent of weathering of the country rocks. The groundwater storage is mostly controlled by the thickness and hydrological properties of the weathered zone and the aquifer geometry. The over exploitation of groundwater, beyond the ‘safe yield’ limit, cause undesirable effects like continuous reduction in groundwater levels, reduction in river flows, reduction in wetland surface, degradation of groundwater quality and many other environmental problems like drought, famine etc.

Assessment of Water Quality along the Coastal Areas of Kerala: A Study of the Tsunami Impact on Groundwater

Everywhere, on the coastal belt it is proved without doubt that the pristine ground water quality was severely deteriorated after the 26 December 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami. But how far is more relevant, as it is decided by the so-called pre-tsunamic situation of the region. In water quality studies it is this reference finger print which earmarks regional ground water chemistry based on which the monthly variability could rationally be interpreted. This Ph D thesis comprises the testing and evaluation of the facts: whether there is any significant difference in the water quality parameters under study between stations and between months in Tsunami Affected Dug Wells (TADW). Whether the selected water quality parameters vary significantly from BIS and WHO standards. Whether the water quality index (WQI) differ significantly between Tsunami Affected Dug Wells (TADW) and Bore Wells (BW). Whether there is any significant difference in the water quality parameters during December 2005 and December 2008. Is there any significant change in the Water Quality Parameters before 2001 and after tsunami (2005) in TADW.

Plan de empresa "Dorcé"

Dorcé es una idea de negocio que responde de manera directa a la necesidad de vestir de las mujeres a través de su innovador sistema operativo “Diseño y confección a tu manera” el cual tiene como objetivo revolucionar la tradicional forma de adquirir prendas de vestir femeninas en la ciudad de Villavicencio. Desde su creación y ejecución, se ha observado una gran aceptación de dicho sistema operativo por parte de los clientes antiguos generando muy buenos resultados económicos partiendo de sus actividades principales, el diseño, la confección y venta de prendas de vestir femeninas. Es por esto que el desarrollo de este trabajo de grado va dirigido a organizar de una manera más administrativa los diferentes procesos que se llevan a cabo dentro de la organización a fin de conseguir incrementar la producción y llegar así a un grupo más amplio de clientes con base en sus necesidades y a las actuales tendencias de la moda. Esta labor tiene como fin, responder y satisfacer a la mujer villavicense en términos de moda, servicio y confección, agregándole un valor adicional en cuanto a menores tiempos de entrega, altos estándares de calidad y exclusividad. Todo lo anterior, en un solo lugar. El sistema operativo (factor diferenciador) de esta idea de negocio consiste en ofrecer a los clientes, diferentes modelos de las partes (cuello, manga, contorno, falda y panty) que componen las prendas que fabrica Dorcé (Blusa, vestido y traje de baño). Con el fin de que el cliente pueda armar la prenda a su gusto teniendo el plus de ir “a la medida”. Dicha prenda de carácter exclusivo, es confeccionada y entregada al cabo de un máximo de 3 días dependiendo de la complejidad que tenga para ser elaborada, garantizándole al cliente no solo la originalidad del diseño de su prenda sino también fabricarla en menor tiempo que la competencia. Es un producto y un servicio innovador que va dirigido a mujeres de quince a setenta años de edad de la ciudad de Villavicencio, mujeres de media y alta sociedad que se caracterizan por su gusto por la moda y la calidad. Una vez se satisfacen las necesidades de nuestros clientes se da lugar a nuevas ventas dentro del grupo social de cada una de ellas, una vez nos refieran de manera positiva con sus amigas y conocidas. Este tipo de publicidad (voz a voz) es la que ha llevado a Dorcé a crecer a través de los años sin perder la exclusividad de su mercado; sin embargo, en la actualidad, la idea de negocio carece de estructura empresarial adecuada, de estrategias que garanticen su crecimiento y sostenibilidad, también carece de recursos financieros inmediatos que faciliten la ampliación y adecuación de la planta de producción y del almacén. Es por ello que las actuales empresarias de esta idea de negocio tienen como objetivo, mediante la elaboración de este plan de empresa, desarrollar, organizar y mejorar las estrategias, acciones, objetivos, alianzas, cambios, inversiones, que se tienen y necesitan para el mejoramiento interno y externo de la compañía. Para el desarrollo de dicho plan, Dorcé cuenta con Doris Blanco, una diseñadora de modas de 25 años de experiencia en el sector textil y confección en la ciudad de Villavicencio, quien está a cargo del área de producción de la empresa, dos estudiantes de Administración de Negocios Internacionales, Fernanda Montes y Juliana Villamizar, quienes están a cargo de la parte administrativa, comercial y estratégica de la empresa. De igual forma cuenta con el conocimiento del mercado textil y de confección, así mismo amplias relaciones que se han venido fortaleciendo a través del tiempo con los diferentes proveedores de materia prima en la ciudad, maquinaria y materia prima inicial, cerca de sesenta mujeres que se han vinculado a la empresa como clientes fieles a la idea de negocio promocionándolo de manera positiva día a día, así como también el interés, empuje y compromiso por parte de las involucradas en desarrollar, ejecutar y sostener esta idea de negocio como proyecto de vida.
