Internet News April 2012

A mixed bag of items this month, including a statement by Princess Ursula  of Bavaria calling for support  of CE World Congress ( see previous posting),   but nothing really substantial or new - lots of fundraising as usual.

Report of services at Conductive Eduction Center Orlando, Florida

Not all doom and gloom!

In these days of financial difficulty it is good to see that some centres are hoping to expand their services and their premises.  The PACE Centre in Aylesbury, Bucks (UK) is planning to acquire new premises to extend their early years services and training operation.

http://www.bucksherald.co.uk/news/local-news/pace-plan-early-years-centre-1-3805561

The local paper reports:

The centre would allow PACE to consolidate its existing Early Years services onto one site and provide expansion space in response to the continuing growth in demand for its services.

 

It will also provide training facilities to allow PACE staff to develop and extend their skills to similar organisations around the country

A decision by the local planning department will be made later this month.

Royal support for 8th World Conductive Education Congress

A welcome message by Princess Ursula of Bavaria has been posted on the 8th World Conductive Education Congress website expressing support for Conductive Education. She is the patron of FortSchritt in Niederpöcking and calls for the support of  parents and professionals in the development of funding for training and development of Conductive Education in Germany to be expressed at the Congress in Munich and says :

 

The 8th World Congress on Conductive Education which will take place in Munich in 2013 – after Gothenburg and Hong Kong – is a unique chance to demonstrate presence in the public in a transnational way. We hope to increase the acceptance and to create a strong pressure group for the conductive education by panel discussions with politicians and representatives of public health insurances and cure associations.

Your personal commitment will be most important. Please take the time to visit the 8th World Congress on Conductive Education in Munich and bring in your demands as a person concerned or as parents

.

It will be interesting to see how much response this gets and how many parents and professionals do attend the confrence in October 2013. In the past these congresses have tended to include mostly people working in the field of Conductive Education, of which only a few were parents running centres and services.

A wider audience may encourage wider discussion.

News from New Zealand

The latest newsletter, March 2012,  from the New Zealand Foundation for Conductive Education is now up on their website and also on  docstoc.com

http://www.conductive-education.org.nz/Newsletter.pdf

http://www.docstoc.com/docs/119853066/From-Dave-Ching-Conductive-Education-Coordinator

As usual it contains information about the Foundation's activities, reports from the CE centres and what is going on on Conductive Education. It is good to see that conductors are very involved in the running of the organisation as well as doing their 'day jobs' .

Also included is information about the CE Awareness Week due to start on 21st May.  I wish them good luck!

What happened next - nothing!

Last Wednesday I sent an email to the address that was posted in a comment made on my  last blog posting re the  appropriation of my Conductive Education centre lists and postings.

I have not had a reply yet, either to say she is not the person running the Conductive Education World Hungary blog, or to say that she is.

I cannot contact her via the Conductive Education World Hungary blog as clicking on the 'contact' tag brings me a pop up saying my computer is not set up to use it - I don't have Microsoft Office or Microsoft Express email. Perhaps that is why.

Very disappointing as I was hoping to hear something and respond accordingly.

Whoever you are, please do get in touch.

Conductive Education World Hungary - Flattery,cheek - or something else ?

This morning seemed just like any other before I switched my computer on and linked to Conductive World to catch up with Andrew's postings. What I found there has left me a little nonplussed and needless to say very surprised, as well as a little angry, disheartened, disappointed  -  and also curious.

http://www.conductive-world.info/2012/04/london-calling.html

The blog mentioned  Conductive Education World Hungary  at

http://www.conductive-education-world.blogspot.co.uk/

contains a lot of material from my blog which has taken considerable time and effort (and knowledge) over the years to compile. Whilst I am more than happy for people to make use of it in whatever way suits them, I would have expected,  or even just hoped, that some acknowledgment would have been made on where the information came from.

Why hasn't it?

Why has it been posted in such a jumbled mess, no organisation at all?

Who has done this?

More to the point why has it been 'pirated' at all? A simple link to my blog would have been much easier and simpler to do.

Strangely enough Andrew and I had a conversation about plagarism only yesterday afternoon and agreed that as individuals  there is little one can do to stop it, with acceptance and resignation  all that is open to us. Copyright laws are too complicated and trying to implement them is a very expensive business. Universities, colleges and schools can penalise students for so doing, whenever they are spotted, but I (and anyone else whose work is used in this way) have no such options.

Come on konduktorba, let us know who you are and why you have done this!

 In doing this you are only cheating  yourself and as we have seen elsewhere cheats are usually found out in the end.

More about late blooming!

I realised after receiving a couple of enquiries that I hadn't added information about the availability of the publications I have been involved in.

Those published by Conductive Education Press can be obtained by clicking on the links to the books on the right hand side of this blog which  lead to the Conductive Education Press page on Blurb's website. Copies can then be ordered. The last title is yet to be published and its publication  will be announced in the near future.

For the others it will be necessary to contact the Foundation for Conductive Education to see if any copies are left and still for sale.

Late bloomer

Even though I am not usually one to blow my own trumpet, as the saying goes, I realised the other day, that I have edited and published a few books, some when I was Librarian at the Foundation for Conductive Education, and even more since I was retired. For years I had been saying that more should have been written and published on Conductive Education and somehow I have become involved in doing exactly that!

These have been:

• Setting up and editing a twice-a-year journal, Recent Advances in Conductive Education that ran from 2001 to 2009

• Co-editing and/or publishing six books plus another to be published in 2012.

Not bad going! This was not a planned career move ( nor was that retirement). It seems to have 'just happened' and will, I hope, continue..

.

New book coming soon

Andrew has mentioned that we are currently working on a new publication about  András Pető  for Conductive Education Press. This has proved to be a very interesting experience but has taken a lot longer than was originally thought - doesn't everything? The idea was first discussed back in December 2010 at the conference in Hong Kong, and this has developed into something a lot more substantial than originally thought possible. More about that later.

Here we are nearly 18 months later almost there, on the home straight - we think!

The dilemma at the moment is to come up with a title for it and I would not have believed that it could be so difficult. Suggestions have gone back and forth but no definite decision made although there are a couple of front runners.

Watch this space for more information!

New book about Conductive Education

Eine Geschichte nach einem Schlaganfall in Wort und Bild
(A post stroke story in words and pictures)
Waltraud Heussinger
Nürnberg: Conductor Nürnberg 
10 euros (£8.50)




Conductor Nürnberg has just published a new book in the series Conductive Lifestyles.

A lady who had a stroke relates her experiences and explains what a difference the discovery of Conductive Education has made to her life and this book, edited and introduced by Susie Mallett,  is copiously illustrated with coloured photos taken by her husband. The story is told in German with parallel English translation by Susie providing what I believe is the first book by an adult recording her experiences. It makes very interesting reading.

As Conductor Nürnberg  is based in Germany I am acting as Susie's UK postwoman and therefore I have some copies. If you wish to purchase a copy, please email her at


small66711@aol.com

with your details and she will invoice you, send me your UK address and I will post a copy to you. This will be much cheaper and quicker than sending it from Germany.

I also  still have a few copies of  CN's first book Tell me a Story you can purchase too see  http://www.gillian-maguire.info/2011/02/let-me-tell-you-story.html 

Again, email Susie re ordering and payment.

First Conductive Education Professional Education Group conference?

Tomorrow there is a conference being held  for CE professionals in the North of England. I had heard rumours about this but been unable to find out any details on the Internet as CEPEG, the organisation running this conference does not appear to have a website as far as I can tell. The information I have now was posted only yesterday on the blog page of Legacy Rainbow House, the centre  hosting the conference.

http://thelegacy-rainbowhouse.blogspot.com/2012/03/legacy-hosts-first-ever-cepeg.html

This states that it is the 'first ever CEPEG Conference' which is strange as I do know CEPEG have been holding conferences annually for a number of years  in various locations, but this is the first in Cheshire.

No papers, presentations, programmes have ever been made public so I can't say what sort of topics are discussed or what kind of practice is reported on. As those involved in  CE are thinly distributed worldwide and do not get to meet very often - the World Congress only happens every four years - it is a shame that information shared at meetings such as these is not made available to those who cannot attend. Even organisations holding conferences for members/professionals only  usually publish proceedings or make information generally available.

Perhaps this will happen this time. I will keep an eye out. If anyone knows of a public source for such information, please do let me know.

BBC film on Nic Hamilton tonight

Just a quick reminder that the BBC documentary on Nic Hamilton,( brother of Lewis) who has cerebral palsy, is broadcast tonight at 10.35 on BBC1. The three others will follow over the coming weeks

Four films on disability to be shown by BBC

The BBC have announces a series of films over the coming months on disability. One of these follows the Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton's brother who has cerebral palsy and wants to be a racing driver too, and another a couple with cerebral palsy about to have their second baby.

The executive producer of the series says:

"This season is about ordinary disabled people dealing with the same everyday challenges that everyone faces – leaving home, choosing a career, raising a family."

Programmes will be on BBC1 and Radio Five Live starting with Nic Hamilton on 6 March.

Its a shame that all four will be broadcast at 10.35pm and not earlier in the schedules.

Recent articles on Conductive Education in journals

Today on Facebook I saw a note by Andrew Sutton that a new article on Conductive Education had been published in an academic journal so I followed the link given and it is now in the Virtual Library's catalogue on  Conduction's website. (see below)

Andrew also asked when there had last been an article on Conductive Education published in a journal.

 Recent Advances in Conductive Education which aimed to encourage reports of developments worldwide and  spread information about the practice of Conductive Education ceased publication in 2008 and no other journal devoted to the subject exists.

There have been numerous ephemeral reports in newspapers and magazines recently but those in academic journals that I am aware of are:

 one in 2008, by Brittle and others on adults in Clinical Rehabilitation
http://cre.sagepub.com/content/22/4.toc

and three in 2010 :
The first in Physiothrapy and Practice by Effgen and Chan on children and gross motor behaviors
at http://informahealthcare.com/doi/abs/10.3109/09593980802664760?journalCode=ptp

and another in the Israeli Journal of Occupational Therapy. a comparative study by Schenker and others   http://www.isot.org.il/emall/shopDepartment.asp?sc=1872&id=58974&fid=18142

and an evaluation by Tuersley-Dixon and Frederiskson  in Educational Psychology and Practice at
http://www.ucl.ac.uk/educational-psychology/resources/Conductive%20Education%20-%20Tuersley-Dixon.pdf

Now we have the first for 2012 by Lotan and others in Developmental Neurorehabilitation  at
http://informahealthcare.com/doi/abs/10.3109/17518423.2011.629374

All these items are entered in the Virtual library catalogue. Not many, but more than I thought. If I have missed any, please let me know.

Articles often come from academic institutions where there is encouragement to publish, or as a result of research, and I wonder how many such projects are yet to be written up and published. If you know of any, again, please let me know.

Playing against time - life with Parkinson's disease

I mentioned this programme on Facebook yesterday and then watched it myself in the evening.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01cc76r

It was a very interesting report of one person's determination to carry on living her life as she always had done, writing and performing her music all over Europe. Barabara Thompson , a celebrated saxophonist has had Parkinson's disease for twelve years and has managed it with drugs, determination and the support of her husband. The documentary film makers followed her over a period of five years and there was footage of her playing and writing her music, managing her 'down' time and discussing her treatment with a Parkinson's nurse and doctors. There was no mention of her trying any other means of controlling her PD, such as physiotherapy or Conductive Education.

There was a wonderful scene of her playing with  a group of people with PD who were singing a song about having the disease, composed by a member of the group.

 She is still performing when she can despite the difficulty of not knowing when she will be physically able to and lives in hope that a better treatment will soon be available.

I would recommend watching it - there are six more days to do so on BBC iplayer and by following the link above.

More comment on Masters degree in Conductive Education

There has been a new comment on the posting about Masters degrees in Conductive Education  at

 http://www.gillian-maguire.info/2011/07/masters-degree-in-conductive-education.html

I have responded to say what  the latest position relating to all qualifications for Conductive Education appears to be. The end of the Wolverhampton course and the possible start of another in Birmingham at the National Institute of Conductive Education are the latest developments I can find.

As far as I am aware there is still no Masters degree up and running.

More in the Virtual Conductive Education Library Depository

After neglecting the Depository of the virtual Library  for the past weeks I have just added several papers. These have been sent to me over the past couple of days and provided the push I needed to get more material up.

http://www.e-conduction.org/?page_id=67 

 

A report by Rony Schenker of the recent conference on Conductive Education held in Shanghai last December is now in the Depository alongside its Chinese version translated by Claire Cheng. These make three items about China, two of them  in English. It doesn't sound a lot but considering most information about the development of CE in China is on the Internet  in Mandarin, having two recent items in English is quite a coup.  If you know of others, please do send therm to me.

Getting these into the right format for uploading has taken me quite a while today -  and a lot of careful work. Each had to be redone several times and my patience wore a bit thin more than once! But in the end  -  success. Hooray!

After doing this I checked my email and a friend had sent me a link to a video. I have just watched this and realised that I am quite happy to get frustrated, do things again and again  and  not work like the man in the film.
