'''Greetings!''' I have been at Citizendium since the private pilot began. I hold the roles of ''Assistant to the Chief Constable'', ''author'', and informally ''Media Assets Lead''.
 
===About me===
I hold an M.Ed. in Adult Learning and Global Change from the University of British Columbia, [[Canada]]; prior, I graduated highest-awarded in my class from Florida Atlantic University Honors College with concentrations in [[anthropology]] and [[political science]].  I have numerous years international experience, dispersed through [[Latin America]], [[Micronesia]], and [[Haiti]], and it has marked all I do.  My primary academic interest combines adult education and community-based development within the [[Global South]].  Currently, I am a remedial [[Adult education|adult educator]] at a community college in the [[United States]].  My [[pedagogy]] is decidedly eclectic yet with a bent for [[critical literacy]], which [[Ira Shor]] perfectly defines as facilitating
 
<BLOCKQUOTE>habits of thought, reading, writing, and speaking which go beneath surface meaning, first impressions, dominant myths, official pronouncements, traditional cliches, received wisdom, and mere opinions, to understand the deep meaning, root causes, social context, ideology, and personal consequences of any action, event, object, process, organization, experience, text, subject matter, policy, mass media, or discourse.[http://www.lesley.edu/journals/jppp/4/shor.html]</BLOCKQUOTE>
[[Image:Saipanese Boonie Dog.jpg|right|130px|"Siren" is a Saipanese "Boonie Dog"]]
 
I plan doctoral studies and have yet to decide upon my focus therein.
 
For recreation I greatly enjoy [[fishing]], the outdoors generally, and [[science fiction]].
 
===Contributions===
Most of my contributions are in some way or another related to developing Citizendium, e.g., see [[CZ:Upload-Wizard|The Upload Wizard]] for a current project.  I just don't very often have time to really bunker down and ''write articles''&mdash;I am here, first, to help ''you'' write them.  Still, I am a major contributor to:
 
*[[Anthropology]]
*[[Butler]] - an approved article.
 
If I show up at an article you've been working on and decide to become substantially involved with it ''as an author'', know that I am a perfectionist and am envisioning the day when our approved articles are independently evaluated side-by-side with Britannica's and Wikipedia's.

Revision as of 21:57, 13 December 2007

I'll return when there is discussion of placing a strong mechanism to eject contributors who have proven they are simply unsuited for a collaborative project. I did not leave Wikipedia to put up with unchecked bullies here, and be powerless to do anything about it. Stephen Ewen 20:57, 13 December 2007 (CST)
