Presented at the PRHE (Pedagogical Research in Higher Education) Conference 16-17 June 2008., This paper highlights aspects of our experience as “exploratory practitioners” researching
the use and the value of two modes of assessment (web-based discourse and sketchbook
learning journals).…

This article presents a comparative study of Matthew Arnold's 1854 poem "The Scholar-Gipsy" and Anita Desai's 1978 story "Scholm" and Gypsy". Arnold's poem contrasts the single-minded integrity of his central character's search lot redemption through the power of Romany culture,…
