Levine Family Reunion Members, interviewed by Wendy Miller in September 2009: Transcript

The Levine family held an extensive reunion during the Summer of 2009 during which 29 DVDs of raw material were recorded for use in the creation of a Levine family mini-documentary. Many of these DVDs contain oral history interviews conducted by Wendy Miller, one of the organizers of the reunion. Although these interviews were not designed for historical research, they contain valuable historical information. Some of the family members interviewed include: Ben Arnon (4/5), Marjorie, Stephen, and Michael Kaplan (8), Glenyce Miller Kaplan (starts in 15, continues in 9; separate interview in 13), Burt, Phyllis, and Louis Shiro (9) [Burt Shiro also in 26/27], Myrt and Gordon Wolman (9), Ted and Billy Alfond (10), Barbara and Joan Alfond (10), Susan and Peter Alfond (10), Alice Emory [caregiver for Bibby] (11), Eric Bloom and Stu Cushner (11), Saralee Kaplan Bloom (11), Sarah Miller Arnon (12), Kayla and Jenna Cushner (12), Josh Soros and Eliana Miller-Kaplan (12), Sarah, Wendy, and Julie Miller (starts in 12, continues in 14), Bill Shutzer (13), Maschia and Glicka Kaplan, Sharon Kushner, Dan Hood (13), Gene, Alex, Kate Cohen (14), Ben, Jeremy, Joselyn Arnon (14), Wendy and Julie Miller at the store (15), and Eric Bloom (15).

O devir menor de Alice : linhas de escrita, linhas de vida. Sobre a aprendizagem da linguagem na educação infantil

As linhas de escrita que conformam o Devir Menor de Alice constituem-se a partir da necessidade de investigar o devir-criança dos corpos aprendentes no processo de aprendizagem da linguagem como potência capaz de engendrar, na imanência dos encontros educativos, um currículo que funcione como plano de constituição de um estilo singular de inscrição de si e do mundo no âmbito da educação infantil. Impulsionado por forças que se desdobram em um campo problemático que orienta um percurso investigativo de caráter cartográfico, o estudo busca problematizar: Por quais processos o problema da escrita pode ordenar um movimento expressivo de aprendizagem da linguagem? Em torno dessa problemática, concebe três questões centrais: (1) De que modo as práticas diferenciais de linguagem traçadas no movimento imanente do currículo deslocam de modo positivo o processo de aprendizagem da linguagem na educação infantil? (2) Do que trata concretamente o conceito de linguagem no movimento expressivo e de aprendizagem afetiva? (3) Por que é relevante abordar o movimento expressivo de aprendizagem da linguagem e por que fazer isso a partir do problema da escrita? Nesse processo investigativo, afirma que a aprendizagem da linguagem implica processos de subjetivação pelos quais a ideia do delírio, do sonho, do sonambulismo de Alice traz para a leitura e a escrita a necessária relação com a tradução: uma leitura que, ao invés de ler o real, o traduz com as forças intensivas do mundo, produzindo afecções nos corpos envolvidos (o leitor, o escritor, o texto, o próprio entorno) e fazendo variar sua potência; uma leitura que envolve as artistagens tradutórias de um agenciamento coletivo de enunciação pelo traçado de linhas de escrita e de vida; uma escrita como invenção: inscrição singular de um si-mundo; traçado desejante de criação. Pretende, portanto, defender que a aprendizagem da linguagem acontece como atividade expressiva quando há composição de um bloco de devir-aprendente por meio da criação de um estilo. Para tanto, recorre a algumas ferramentas conceituais produzidas por Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995) e Félix Guattari (1930-1992), Gilbert Simondon (1924-1989), Baruck Spinoza (1632-1677), Suely Rolnik (2006), Sandra Corazza (2013), Virginia Kastrup (1999) e Walter Kohan (2007), de modo a tentar intervir concretamente nas discussões em torno dos conceitos de aprendizagem, linguagem, tempo, signos, acontecimento, devir, escrita e estilo, seguindo pelo conceito de individuação e pelos movimentos de exploração intensiva dos meios cartografados nos encontros educativos estabelecidos em um Centro de Educação Infantil de Vitória.

Alice's anima or the obligation of a reading transliteracy

This paper suggests an analysis of "Inanimate Alice" by Kate Pullinger, Chris Joseph and Ian Harper as an example of a transmedia narrative that triggers a new reading experience whilst proposing a literary alterity between reading and performance. Narrative experiences that elect the visual plasticity, interchanging games and tactility as drivers of the creative process are not new. Yet, narrative experiences, which have been created in the gap between reality and fiction, have found on the digital realm the perfect environment to multiple hybrid experiences. Bearing in mind Walter Benjamin’s concept of Erlebnis and Erfahrung, a critical analysis of this digital fiction tries to illustrate how literary art finds its space and time in a metamorphosed continuum only activated by the “patient reader”. All the multimedia hybrids, which this digital literary work may have, challenge readers to interpret different signals and poetic structures that most of readers might not be accustomed to; however even among a cognitive dissonance, meaning is found and reading happens only if time, space and attention are available. All possible transmedia literacies can only respond to this experience of online reading, if they are able to focus and draw attention not to a simple new behaviour or a single new practice, but to a demanding state of affairs that assemble different objective and subjective value forms.

Uma perspectiva foucaudiana na auditoria à avaliação de desempenho na administração pública

Motivation: Auditing is not merely a collection of technical tasks but also a programmatic idea circulating in organizational environment, an idea which promises a certain style of control and organizational transparency (Power, 1998, p. 122) Performance appraisal within public organization aims to promote this organizational transparency and promote learning and improvement process both for employees and for the organization. However, we suggest that behind its clear intentions, there are some other goals tied to performance appraisal that could be seen as components of a discipline and surveillance systems to make the employee “knowable, calculable and administrative object” (Miller and Rose, 1990, p. 5). Objective: In Portuguese public organizations, performance appraisal follows the SIADAP (Performance Appraisal Systems for Public Administration). The objective of this study is to capture whatever employees of public organizations (appraisers and appraisee) perceived the performance appraisal system (SIADAP) as an appraisal model that promotes equity, learning and improvement or just as an instrument of control to which they feel dominated and watched over. Method: We developed an in-depth qualitative case study using semi-structured interviews with appraisers and their subordinates in the administrative department of a university institute of Medicine. The discourse of the participants was theoretically analyzed based on Foucauldian framework. Prior to qualitative data collection, we collected quantitative data, with a questionnaire, to measure the (un)satisfaction of employees with the all appraisal system. Findings: Although some key points of Foucault perspective were identified, its framework revealed some limitations to capture the all complexity of performance appraisal. Qualitative data revealed a significant tendency in discourses of appraisers and their subordinates considering SIADAP as an instrument that’s aims to introduced political rationalities and limits to the employer’s promotions within their careers. Contribution: This study brings a critical perspectives and new insights about performance appraisals in Portuguese’s public administrations. It is original contribution to management of human recourses in public administration and primary to audit of performance appraisal systems.
