may 3, 2018 – thunder bay, on

阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ’s dr. pauline sameshima has been renewed as a canada research chair in arts integrated studies.

“research helps build the life we want now and for future societies,” said dr. sameshima, a professor in the faculty of education. “imagination allows researchers to construct narratives, stories, and mythologies of the kind of world we wish to occupy. as we think and imagine, we construct a new society.

“the knowledge economy has been replaced by the creative economy, bringing to the forefront worldwide studies that link weak creativity development at work and school to unhealthy economic and societal well-being,” she said. “advances in canada’s creativity will depend on broader audiences being able to participate in active learning and making at all levels. creativity is not relegated to artists.”

the canada research chairs program, which attracts world-class researchers to universities, has positioned canada as an international leader and destination of choice in research and development.

in total, the government of canada will provide $158.7 million in support to 186 newly awarded and renewed canada research chairs. the research has potential benefits for canadians and their families, businesses, practitioners and policy-makers. 

the canada research chairs program invests approximately $265 million per year toward research in engineering and the natural sciences, health sciences, humanities, and social sciences.

dr. john o’meara, dean of lakehead’s faculty of education, said dr. sameshima will continue working with partners and faculty in thunder bay, other parts of canada, and internationally to develop creative ways of exploring and expressing research.

“we are proud to have dr. sameshima renewed as a crc and look forward to seeing her research reach broad audiences through the arts,” dr. o’meara said.

dr. sameshima curates galleries@lakeheadu and is the editor-in-chief of the journal of the canadian association for curriculum studies. her latest award-winning book is a co-edited collection titled poetic inquiry: enchantment of place published by vernon press.

“during pauline’s first term as a canada research chair she has brought inspiring work in the creative arts and helped us appreciate innovative research through different lenses,” said dr. andrew p. dean, lakehead’s vice-president, research and innovation.  “i look forward to her research contributions in the second term.”

dr. sameshima's research projects include the implementation of creativity propulsion theories, community-engaged research, prenatal education access, dementia studies, and designing teaching and learning models.

a 3-minute research video she created with her team on prenatal education demonstrates how the arts can facilitate research dissemination to the broader public. more on dr. sameshima's research can be found at solspire.com.

dr. sameshima’s chair, funded by the social sciences and humanities research council, has been renewed for five years.

april 26, 2018 – thunder bay, on

阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 officially opened its teaching commons by gathering with staff and faculty in the beautiful new location in the chancellor paterson library on thursday, april 26.

located on the fifth floor of the library, the teaching commons is a dedicated space for staff and faculty to come together to enhance teaching excellence across the university.

 it now includes private offices for the coordinator of instructional development, indigenous curriculum specialist, and the coordinator of learning technologies and innovation.

“this allows staff to offer private and extended consultations with instructors who require our assistance without disturbing those around them,” said karen keiller, vice-provost and university librarian.

“it also increases the likelihood of instructors seeking our help on confidential matters.”

the new location also offers access to librarians for quick consultations on matters related to copyright, resources, and other topics.

“whereas before we had to walk to another building or to another section of the building to connect instructors and librarians, now we can simply walk across the room and the necessary connections are made,” keiller said.

the teaching commons now also includes communal open spaces for casual faculty interaction. tools are also available for graduate 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 , such searchable pedagogical and professional resources including the 20-minute mentor – video-based programs designed to answer a specific question related to teaching and learning.

the teaching and learning in higher education certificate is also offered through the teaching commons to help graduate 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 develop professional, pedagogical knowledge and practices for those who choose to participate.

“since the teaching commons opened in 2017, it has helped more than 100 faculty members and i’m thrilled that even more faculty will receive assistance in this exceptional space in the chancellor paterson library,” said dr. moira mcpherson, lakehead’s interim president and vice-chancellor.

the teaching commons also engages with lakehead orillia to provide hands-on support, training, and workshops.

阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ’s steel bridge team heading to the national competition again

photo of lakehead's steel bridge teamfrom left, mack barber, kevin langdon, matt olinski, yunseul shin, and ben degroot are heading to the national steel bridge competition in late may.

april 23, 2018 – thunder bay, on

阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ’s steel bridge team placed first overall in the regional competition held recently in iowa city.  

twelve regional universities from minnesota, iowa, wisconsin, north dakota, south dakota and manitoba, including 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 , participated in the aisc/asce steel bridge competition.

matt olinski, yunseul shin, ben degroot, kevin langdon, and mack barber were on 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ’s steel bridge team, with faculty advisor dr. tony gillies and support technologist conrad hagstrom.  kailash bhatia acted as machinist advisor to the team.

“this competition gave us the opportunity to unveil the skills and knowledge we obtained from the lakehead engineering program,” said olinski, team captain.

“knowledge obtained from our engineering drawing, structural analysis, steel design and civil engineering analysis courses provided the basis for designing, analyzing and optimizing the steel structure,” he said. other skills such as time management, team collaboration and leadership, which the 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 indirectly learned from the engineering program, were integral to the team’s overall result.

“the competition also allowed us to oversee a technical project from start to finish. from the first design drafts on paper to the final design, fabrication and testing of the bridge, it has been a long process,” olinski said.

one important lesson the team learned was that a design is only as good as how constructible it is. “a good design meets your goal, but a great design achieves your goal in a cost and time efficient manner,” he said.

the lakehead team’s bridge took first for construction speed, first for construction economy (based on construction time and bridge weight) first for structural efficiency (based on bridge weight to stiffness ratio), third for display, fourth for lightness - placing first overall.

overall ranking of the top five at regional competition

1)      阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜

2)     university of wisconsin-platteville

3)     iowa state university

4)     north dakota state university

5)     university of north dakota

“this is the 20th year that a team of 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 civil engineering 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 have participated in the student steel bridge competition,” said dr. gillies, faculty advisor to the team.

“the lakehead team has maintained the university’s reputation for excellence and lakehead teams have now qualified for the national competition for 18 out of the 20 competitions.

“they can now look forward to the 2018 national competition where approximately 50 university teams from across north america will be competing in illinois for the top honours,” dr. gillies said.

the regional competition challenges 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 to design a bridge made of steel, and to fabricate an 18-foot-long, 1:10 scale model of the proposed bridge that satisfies the 35-page specifications and site drawings provided to all teams last september.

the models are erected under simulated field conditions, and are then load-tested by the 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 at the host university.

the specifications for the bridge change from year to year. this year the teams had to find the optimum balance between bridge weight and deflection under load to maximise their performance.  the rules mirror what it would be like to build a full-sized version of the bridge, taking into account the materials cost (weight), labour cost (construction time), traffic load (simulated test load), and performance (measured deflection under load).  not only does the competition test the 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 ’ structural design capabilities, it also challenges them to fabricate and construct their design.    

support needed

the 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 appreciate the support from local companies, unions and associations to assist in meeting the costs to participate in the recent competition. the team would welcome additional sponsors for their upcoming competition in illinois in may.  anyone interested can contact the team’s faculty advisor dr. tony gillies at 343-8684.

阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 phd candidate heading to the provincial three-minute thesis competition

 robert jackson heads to toronto this week to compete in the provincial three-minute thesis competition.

april 16, 2018 – thunder bay, on

meet robert jackson, winner of 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ’s three-minute thesis competition.

jackson is working toward a phd in biotechnology. he is studying human papillomaviruses at the thunder bay regional health research institute with supervisor, dr. ingeborg zehbe.

“i find viruses absolutely fascinating and they are everywhere,” he said, adding that he was excited to study in dr. zehbe's lab, which focuses on hpv-related cancers.

jackson is trying to understand how small changes in the genetic code of viruses, specifically hpvs, can lead to a higher risk of cells becoming cancerous. “i use a variety of biotechnology tools to accomplish this, including lab-grown human skin.”

even with a thorough knowledge of his research material, jackson was nervous before presenting his three-minute thesis in front of a crowd of people during research and innovation week.

one thing that helped jackson become comfortable was when 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ’s graduate studies office invited david goldsworthy, a toastmasters member, to present a workshop offering public speaking tips.

“that was essential in providing the polish. i loved hearing david's perspective and advice, and sponged it up,” he said. jackson stepped on stage and was nervous at first, “but it goes away after a few seconds and then it goes by in a blur.”

he didn’t believe he would win. “i consciously knew the chance of winning was greater than zero, but no, i didn’t think i would win . . . especially after listening to the other presenters, who were amazing.”

jackson offered advice to anyone considering studying at 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 .

“it depends on what they are passionate about and their educational goals, but overall one advantage at 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 is research opportunities, even at the undergraduate level.

“it's never really too early to get involved in research, so i would recommend that if 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 are passionate about research, they should engage with faculty and other 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 that are doing the kind of work they would like to do,” he said.

he also recommended participating in three-minute thesis competitions.

“these kinds of events are a marvellous opportunity to hone our communication skills and to engage with people. i feel that as researchers we have an obligation to the public to be able to communicate our work, clearly and honestly, to solidify the role that research – especially basic research – has in strengthening our society,” he said.

jackson will participate in the provincial three-minute thesis competition on thursday, april 19 in toronto.

“i’m nervously excited and most of all very grateful for the opportunity,” he said, thanking dr. zehbe and his research colleagues for their support.

“i’d also like to thank the thunder bay regional health research institute, nserc, which funds my research, 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 and the faculty of graduate studies for supporting the competition, lakehead’s three-minute thesis judges and david goldsworthy from toastmasters, as well as the graduate student association for helping with travel costs.”

update: robert didn't finish in the top five at the three-minute thesis provincial competition, but he received compliments on his exceptional presentation on human papillomavirus and he met lots of great people. congratulations, robert!

april 6, 2018 – orillia, on

阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 orillia capped off a successful 2017-18 athletics season on friday, april 6 with a celebration of its student athletes during the annual athletic awards banquet at hawk ridge golf and country club.

“this is a night to highlight our thunderwolves athletes,” said elana weber, student athletics and wellness coordinator. “it’s an opportunity for all our athletes and coaches to receive well-deserved recognition surrounded by their coaches and teammates.”

to cap off the celebration, andrew dobson was named male athlete of the year, while chauntelle palmer was recognized as female athlete of the year. palmer was also recognized as most valuable player for women’s varsity indoor soccer.

other major award winners included brennan kaffer and lukas katinas who were named the ontario colleges athletic association (ocaa) all-academic award recipients. the ocaa all-academic award is presented to full-time student athletes who also meet honours academic standards at 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 .

awards were also presented to top student athletes in each of the university’s sports teams: equestrian, men’s and women’s hockey, dance, men’s and women’s soccer, and men’s basketball. most valuable player and rookie of the year were announced and presented by the team coaches, who were also recognized and thanked by the university.

“being an athlete is a lot of work on top of being a full-time student, and in some cases, juggling a part-time job,” said chris glover, director of student affairs, who addressed the student athletes at friday night’s banquet. “although today you are being recognized as athletes, together you represent so much more. you are leaders, passionate members and ambassadors of 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 , and proud thunderwolves who make this university a special place for so many.”

since lakehead orillia began offering athletic programs back in 2010, the menu of sports offered through the orillia campus has grown to a multi-level, multi-sport program with almost 100 athletes.

“if it wasn’t for the perseverance and hard work of our athletes and volunteer coaches, we simply wouldn’t have the athletic program we do here at lakehead orillia,” said glover. “we know how important it is to our 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 to be able to offer these types of programs and we’re hoping to continue to see growth and diversity in what we offer.”

april 10, 2018 – thunder bay, on 

lakehead’s office of aboriginal initiatives and conseil scolaire de district catholique des aurores boréales are hosting 100 years of loss: the residential school system in canada mobile exhibition at 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 in the agora from april 10-12.

the 100 years of loss mobile exhibition explores the history of the residential school system and traces its legacy to the present.

the exhibition uses archival and contemporary photographs, works of art, primary documents, and recent research to reveal the histories of first nations, inuit, and métis children who were forcibly removed from their families and institutionalized in residential schools.

 the distinct features of 100 years of loss are the depth of the historical perspective and the breadth of the information presented. the story begins in the early days of european expansion into north america, and continues up to and including the decades of advocacy and healing efforts by aboriginal peoples, the indian residential schools settlement agreement, the 2008 federal apology to survivors and their families, and the establishment of the truth and reconciliation commission in 2009.

one of the greatest strengths of this exhibition is its focus on the legacy of the irs system, and in particular, its enduring impacts on survivors and their descendants, on communities, and on canada as a nation. the exhibition clearly shows the direct links between the residential school system and the contemporary social crises afflicting aboriginal communities across the country.
