How can the arts of memory counteract the inertial effects of what psychologist Peter Kahn, Jr. has called “intergenerational environmental amnesia”? The lecture seeks to offer a series of general reflections in response to key questions such as: How much reliance is to be placed on memory as carrier of environmental understanding and thereby as stimulus to environmentalist intervention? To what extent can memory–variously defined–be seen as a resource for reinvisioning (and renegotiating) the relation between human and otherthan-human realms in an era of environmental crisis?

Maestro Dohnanyi and his guests discuss his early days as a composer. He plays two of his own selections: “Intermezzo, Opus No. 2” and “F Minor Rhapsody.”
This study takes a closer look at gender representation in the 150 top grossing animated films from 1990 to 2019. We examine the gap between representation, and male and female characters in lead characters, speaking roles, if speakers are male or female, unrealistic bodies, if female-led movies passed the Bechdel test and if animated films were likely going to fail the Bechdel test. Our results found that male characters have significantly more speaking roles than female characters and are overall more important in animated films than females. These results have confirmed to negatively impact the way children are socialized.
Background and Aims: Medical school curriculum is tasked with producing lifelong self-directed learners, a set of characteristics requiring strong metacognitive skills. Metacognitive skills directly impact students’ metacognition, which is their ability to understand and regulate their own thinking and learning. It may then be postulated that metacognition may be key in distinguishing students that require a post-baccalaureate program from those that do not. Metacognition has two critical domains: metacognitive knowledge and metacognitive regulation, each of which contain multiple subprocesses. Metacognitive knowledge includes knowing strategies for learning, when to use those strategies, and knowing oneself as a learner. Metacognitive regulation includes strategies for planning, monitoring, evaluating, and debugging learning strategies. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate: 1) the impact of a graduate Team-Based Learning (TBL) course on students’ metacognitive awareness, and 2) the relationship between metacognition and course performance.
Methods: Students enrolled in a TBL graduate histology course at Indiana University took part in this study. Students completed a 19-item Metacognitive Awareness Inventory (MAI) at the beginning (MAI1) and end of the semester (MAI2). The MAI has two domains, Knowledge (8 items) and Regulation (11 items), where items are rated on a 5-point scale from “not at all typical of me” to “very typical of me.” Free response questions asked about knowledge and study abilities, plans for studying in histology and how study skills and abilities have improved across the semester. Finally, students completed a voluntary reflection about their examination performance after the first unit exam. Differences between MAIs were investigated using a Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Spearman's correlations explored the relationship between MAI and final course grades. MAI free responses and exam reflection were analyzed using thematic analysis. Responses were coded using a conceptual framework of metacognition based on processes of knowledge and regulation.
Results: Thirty-one (94%) students completed both MAIs. There were no differences between MAI1 and MAI2 scores and there was no relationship between MAI1 or MAI2 and final course grades. The Wilcoxon test demonstrated a significant difference between the Knowledge and Regulation domains for MAI1 (p=0.002) and MAI2 (p=0.001) where students reported the items in the Knowledge domain were more typical of them than items in the Regulation domain. There were no differences across the domains between the two time points. Students reported initial hesitation and difficulty with learning histology content in a lecture-free, flipped classroom approach. Students discussed plans for approaching studying, but many reported modifying study strategies throughout the semester. However, few students discussed active learning strategies that would allow them to evaluate and assess their knowledge prior to assessments.
Conclusion: While the MAI failed to demonstrate any improvement in metacognition, students reported an increase in their ability to adapt their study strategies to the content and learning materials. Differences in knowledge of cognition and regulation suggests educators in TBL classrooms may need to provide students with additional resources and strategies to regulate their learning. Future studies aim to investigate the validity of the MAI for measuring metacognition in anatomy courses.
