Making Claims for Migrant Workers: Human Rights and Citizenship
Migrant workers claims for greater protection in a globalized world are typically expressed either in the idiom of international human rights or citizenship. Instead of contrasting these two normative frames, the paper explores the extent to which human rights and citizenship discourses intersect when it comes to claims by migrant workers. An analysis of the international human and labour rights instruments that are specifically designed for migrant workers reveals how neither discourse questions the assumption of territorial state sovereignty. Drawing upon sociological and political approaches to human rights claims, I evaluate the Arendtian-inspired critique of international human rights, which is that they ignore the very basis âright to have rightsâ. In doing so, I discuss the different dimensions of citizenship and conclude that international rights can be used by migrant workers to assert right claims that reinforce a conception of citizenship that, although different from national citizenship, has the potential to address their distinctive social location

Assessing the adaptation of arable farmers to climate change using DEA and bio-economic modelling
The objective of this article is to assess the impact of climate change on arable farming systems in Flevoland (the Netherlands) and to explore the adoption of different adaptation strategies. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is applied that uses empirical data from individual farms to identify âbestâ current farm practices and derive relationships regarding current farm managemen
Adapting agriculture in 2050 in Flevoland; perspectives from stakeholders
Although recently more research has gone into farm level studies, little attention has been given to the variety of responses of farmers, considering their characteristics, objectives and the socio-economic, technological and political contexts (Reidsma et al, 2010). In the Agri-Adapt project we focus on farm level adaptation within an agricultural region considering the socio-economic context of 2050

USD Teacher Residency Program Impact: Classroom Management
USDâs yearlong Teacher Residency Program involves teacher candidates in a full year of teaching experience incorporated into their four-year program. This report examines the effect of two semesters of student teaching over a traditional one-semester model. Studentsâ confidence in classroom management greatly increased with the added semester.https://red.library.usd.edu/serc/1000/thumbnail.jp
USD Teacher Residency Program Impact: Culturally Responsive Pedagogy
USDâs yearlong Teacher Residency Program involves teacher candidates in a full year of teaching experience incorporated into their four-year program. This report examines the effect of two semesters of student teaching over a traditional one-semester model on teacher candidatesâ confidence in culturally responsive pedagogy. Students reported much greater preparedness both to design and to implement instruction that incorporates studentsâ readiness, background, and culture, among other factors.https://red.library.usd.edu/serc/1001/thumbnail.jp
USD Teacher Residency Program Impact: Instructional Technology
USDâs yearlong Teacher Residency Program involves teacher candidates in a full year of teaching experience incorporated into their four-year program. This report examines the impact of the added semester of teaching experience on teacher candidatesâ confidence to intentionally integrate technology with content and pedagogy. USDâs teach candidates indicated much greater confidence after a year-long residency than after a traditional single-semester student teaching experience.https://red.library.usd.edu/serc/1003/thumbnail.jp
