Attitudes and Awareness Towards ASEAN

Attitudes and Awareness Towards ASEAN

Eric C. Thompson; Thianthai Chulanee

Institute of Southeast Asian Studies
2008
nidottu
This report shares results of a region wide survey undertaken in late 2007 among over 2,000 students from leading universities across ASEAN member countries. The survey addressed questions on whether youths today consider themselves to be citizens of ASEAN; whether the region's youth are enthusiastic or skeptical about ASEAN; how well the region's youth know ASEAN and its members; and their concerns for the Association and the region. Survey findings indicate a nascent sense of ownership and stake in ASEAN, despite some clear differences in knowledge and opinions on the grouping. It is interesting to note that the students agreed on the importance of economic cooperation and addressing poverty and development needs; and share a desire to know more about the region.
Knowledge Management for School Education

Knowledge Management for School Education

Eric C. K. Cheng

Springer Verlag, Singapore
2014

?This book introduces the application of knowledge management (KM) theories, practices, and tools in school organization for sustainable development. Schools in Asia Pacific have long faced a variety of challenges in terms of sustainable development under the education reforms and curriculum reforms to meet the demands of a knowledge society. Schools are inevitably expected to develop human capital for the knowledge society within the competitive global economy, and to interact with its policy environment and know how to leverage pedagogical knowledge. The high speed of expansion change and expansion of knowledge have dramatically influence the development of flexibility of teacher and school works. The nature of teacher work becomes increasingly less routine, more analytical, and disruptive yet often come with a sense of urgency and need to be more collaborative. Teachers not only require data and information, but also knowledge and experience of individual, they also need to collaborative task execution, decision making and problem solving. Helping school leaders and teachers to manage their knowledge and become “know how” to cope with the change is important.
The Story of Southeast Asia

The Story of Southeast Asia

Eric C. Thompson

Nus Press
2024
nidottu
A complete narrative history of Southeast Asia. The oldest figurative cave paintings in the world are found on the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia. Hand stencils and animals painted some 45,000 years ago attest to a long history of human creativity. The Story of Southeast Asia tells how the peoples of the region have crafted their diverse societies and cultures over thousands of years. Southeast Asia has been a remarkable crossroads of global connections for millennia. Whereas other regions have been defined by centralizing forces, Southeast Asia’s story is one of complex networks of trade, ideas, and social relationships. Southeast Asians have created, localized, and remade their own cultural values by drawing on influences from around the world. Marshalling the latest literature from anthropology, archaeology, history, and other disciplines, Eric C. Thompson highlights broad themes that cut across history: including the making—and evasion—of states, adoption of diverse religious practices, tolerance and flexibility regarding gender, processes of forging modern identities, struggles over sovereignty, and the making of modern nations in a postcolonial world. This readable, single-volume history reckons with the narrative pull of familiar colonial and national perspectives but maintains a regional and deep-historical focus. It will be a stimulating read for scholars as well as students and newcomers to Southeast Asian history.

In Life Advice from Below, Eric C. Hendriks offers the first systematic, comparative study of the globalization of American-style self-help culture and the cultural conflicts this creates in different national contexts. The self-help guru is an archetypical American figure associated with individualism, materialism and the American Dream. Nonetheless, the self-help industry is spreading globally, thriving in China and other seemingly unlikely places. Controversy follows in its wake, as the self-help industry, operating outside of formal education and state institutions, outflanks philosophical, religious and political elites who have their own visions of the Good Life. Through a comparison of Germany and China, Hendriks analyzes how the competition between self-help gurus and institutional authorities unfolds under radically different politico-cultural regimes. “This witty book charms its way through a very serious sociology of the seriously quirky field of self-help books. Read it for its fascinating pop-culture insights and you’ll come away with a deep understanding of contemporary sociological theory. Highly recommended.” - Salvatore Babones, University of Sydney “Hendriks’ finding that Germany rather than China is more resistant to self-help gurus offers a powerful corrective to the assumption in much of the globalization literature that the greatest cultural divide is between the Anglo-Western European sphere and the rest of the globe.” - Rodney Benson, New York University
Mining in the Museum

Mining in the Museum

Eric C. Nystrom

UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS PRESS
2027
nidottu
Examining 150 years of mining and mineral technology exhibits at the Smithsonian Buried deep underground or cut into remote landscapes, mines are often dirty, dark, and dangerous places, located far from the everyday urban spaces that most Americans call home. Yet mining is foundational to the making of the United States, supplying the raw materials that built its infrastructure, powered its industries, and shaped its scientific institutions, even as the work itself has remained physically removed, technically complex, and culturally overlooked. Mining in the Museum reveals how Americans have encountered this vital industry not at the distant mine face, but in museum galleries. Tracing more than 150 years of mining and mineral technology exhibits at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC, Eric C. Nystrom shows how curators transformed ore, instruments, models, and machinery into stories about progress, innovation, and national development, and how those interpretive choices shaped what the nation remembers—and forgets—about mining. Using mining collections as a lens into institutional change, Nystrom offers a new history of the Smithsonian and its United States National Museum, examining how curators, administrators, and policymakers debated what museums were for, which kinds of knowledge they should produce, and what objects deserved display. He follows the shifting fortunes of mineral and mining exhibits across world's fairs, scientific surveys, and changing exhibition philosophies, showing how display strategies evolved alongside professional science and public education. As mining's place in the national imagination changed, so too did its presence in the federal museum, moving from a central scientific and technological showcase to a subject increasingly preserved by regional and local institutions closer to mining communities themselves. Grounded in extensive archival research, Mining in the Museum illuminates the evolving relationship among technology, public history, and the politics of display, demonstrating how museums help define which industries, and which kinds of work, become part of the American story.

Built on psychology, metabolism and our love of junk food. Mix entire Overeating Days into your diet days, and the pounds will drop off.Over several years, Eric applied his skills and experience in research and writing to develop a diet and exercise plan designed for those who love junk food, but want to lose weight and maintain a healthy body. This requires a diet that respects our love of junk food and occasional reluctance to exercise, but also respects the science of healthy nutrition, in a minimally demanding schedule designed for weight loss without giving up our love of pigging out. To this end, he has written this compact, scientifically motivated but fun and comedic how-to manual on doing just that.The Real Junk Food Diet Book was built from the ground up on our love of junk food. It does not mandate that people stop pigging out, quite the contrary, yet it strives to achieve a healthy weight and healthy body. This is to be contrasted with certain diets that may have similar sounding names, hence the "Real" in The Real Junk Food Diet Book. Developed meticulously over several years, this diet is the product of extensive scientific research (more than 100 references) but is written in an easy, comedic writing style. Only 15,000 words, this compact handbook was designed for the slob who is too lazy to read a long-winded novel on dieting, still wants to lose weight, and doesn't want to give up pigging out on junk food in the process. Sound like someone you know? Me too The Real Junk Food Diet Book does not mandate an extensive exercise regime, because you and I would not follow such a thing. Instead, this diet is based on the scientific properties of human metabolism, and human psyche. Follow The Real Junk Food Diet Book, and you will quickly forget that it is a diet; I consider this a lifestyle, and a fun one.The pounds will drop off, yet you will continue to enjoy vast amounts of the succulent foods you love the most.
