Potential impacts of an energy crisis on waste management systemsSchmidt, Tara J. 07 January 2011 (has links)
Waste management systems are created based on a careful balance of interrelated
factors, a variety of players, and diverse political, social, and economic landscapes. The
purpose of this study is to identify the impacts to waste management caused by limited
supply or increased cost of energy.
A case study was created based on the Alberta Capital Region using literature
review, surveys and interviews to identify how energy is used throughout the various
phases of waste management, from collection through to disposal and diversion, and
what the factors are that affect the organization and infrastructure selected for the waste
management system.
The results of this study conclude that there are economic, social, environmental,
political, and decision-making impacts related to an energy crisis. In particular, it was
concluded that an energy crisis will cause social and economic stresses that will result in
organizational and infrastructure changes to waste management.

Effect of WebCT tool usage on maintenance of treatment standards by denturist practicum studentsParadis, Janet Patricia 27 September 2011 (has links)
This study explored the extent to which using online communication tools helped NAIT
(the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology) denturist students on third-year practica maintain
laboratory and clinical standards of treatment. The inquiry was framed by the Community of
Inquiry (CoI) framework, and was conducted from a collaborative constructivist approach with
quantitative data used to enhance and support a mainly qualitative design. Results showed that
all elements of a CoI were present in the online environment and that participants voluntarily
used WebCT communications tools for academic and social interaction. Standards of treatment
on practical projects completed by the study group were no different than those of cohorts that
did not use communications tools. Modifications to instructional practices made comparison of
standards achieved on patient cases unfeasible. Study results informed immediate changes
made to the online practicum site, and suggestions for long-term pedagogical changes to
denturist practica were made.

Un/Disciplined Performance: Nonprofessionalized Theatre in Canada's Professional EraWhittaker, Robin Charles 05 September 2012 (has links)
The discourse of Western theatre practice is founded on, and maintained as, a legitimizing struggle between the terms “professional” and “amateur.” This study moves beyond the traditional signifiers of Canadian amateur theatre—the Little Theatre Movement, the Dominion Drama Festival and connotations of “inferior” and “dilettantish”—to examine two nonprofessionalized companies that have witnessed the professionalization of Anglo-Canadian theatre in order to argue for the relevance and vitality of contemporary “nonprofessionalized” theatre practices. By drawing from Pierre Bourdieu’s field theory and Michel Foucault’s discourse theory and theories of formations of disciplines, this study argues that theatre professions seek to discipline, delegitimize and exclude nonprofessionalizing practices in order to gain capital (economic, social and cultural) at the expense of the creative freedoms inherent in nonprofessionalized work. It also considers the ways in which theatre scholarship omits critical discussion of amateur practice and how the term “amateur” is co-opted as a clouded pejorative signifier and erased by the contested term “community” within theatre discourse (institutions, practices and the Canadian imaginary).
Following a case study approach based on archival documents, the study provides the foundation for a social history of Alumnae Theatre Company (1918- ), beginning with its early years as part of the University of Toronto’s University College Alumnae Association, by examining the relationship between amateur theatre practice and campus philanthropy, followed by Alumnae’s impact on Toronto’s professionalizing theatre scene in the context of alterity in Canadian theatre discourse. It then examines Walterdale Theatre Associates’ (1958- ) relationship to the emerging theatre profession before and after the opening of Edmonton’s Citadel Theatre in 1965 to argue that Walterdale benefits the profession and its professionalizing artists while negotiating complex concerns over institutionalization. Their longevity is explained, in part, by the fact that both companies operate “as if” professional, yet outside of professionalized disciplinary regimes.

An Urban Rainfall Storm Flood Severity IndexJobin, Erik 08 May 2013 (has links)
Extreme rainfall statistics are important for the design and management of the water resource infrastructure. The standard approach for extreme rainfall event severity assessment is the Intensity-Duration-Frequency (IDF) method. However, this approach does not consider the spatial context of rainfall and consequently does not properly describe rainfall storm severity, nor rarity. This study provides a critical account of the current standard practice and presents an approach that takes into consideration both the spatial context of rainfall storms, and indirectly incorporates runoff to produce a representative approach to assessing urban rainfall storm severity in terms of flood potential. A stepwise regression analysis was performed on a dataset of individual rainfall storm characteristics to best represent documented basement floodings in the City of Edmonton. Finally, the urban rainfall storm flood severity index was shown to be most representative of the documented basement floodings' severity when compared to that of the IDF method.
