Part of the seminar series, 'The Spaces Between: Equity, Voice, Agency and Care Practices Involving the Arts and Arts Therapies'
Growing evidence has identified multiple benefits of arts and creative practices for health and well-being. These offer significant scope for behavioural change interventions and patient activation and empowerment. However, in Latin America, essential gaps in basic knowledge and awareness reduced the potential positive impact of arts on brain health.
Based on the expertise of the Global Brain Health Institute at Trinity College Dublin, Ireland and the Latin American Brain Health Institute at Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez, Chile, we have created the Creative and Arts Intervention Network Latin America. This network aims to support projects and online communities promoting the use of art to improve brain health and create support for vulnerable communities.

This webinar explores the theory, practice and policy implications of school peer reviews for educational improvement and accountability.
Introduction - Professor Peter Earley
Peer review: improvement or policing? - Toby Greany
Review of case study examples and data to analyse how peer review reflects the three forms of isomorphism (coercive, mimetic and normative) identified by DiMaggio and Powell (1983).
Empowerment evaluation - Kerrie Ikin describes the findings of a three-year school peer-review research project conducted within the New South Wales government education system. The research compares an empowerment evaluation approach with a participatory and collaborative one.
Research-informed peer review - Karen Spence Thomas and David Godfrey
The Schools Partnership Programme - Anne Cameron and Maggie Farrar
The future: conceptions of peer review, standards, expansion? - David Godfrey
Q&A chaired by Professor Peter Earley.

Centre for Educational Evaluation and Accountability
The paradox of organisation (school) networks
Across the public services, networks are introduced as a new organisational form to improve service provision. The purpose of these new organisational forms is to ensure and guarantee educational quality and equity in a territory.
Examples are the Local Public Education Services (SLE) in Chile which are set up to organise networks of pedagogical and management support of schools.
This seminar will reflect on the increasing prevalence and unique value proposition of networks, discuss the tension between the increased benefits for end user and the decreased sovereignty for network members (e.g. schools), and talk about the role of evaluation and accountability in resolving this paradox.
