Enrolments by international students in Australian universities have boomed over recent years, especially in postgraduate courses. In many cases these students struggle to meet the standard that their teachers expect. This is often because of poor English combined with a limited understanding of the teachers’ cultural expectations. Rather than lamenting their students’ inadequacies, the present authors embedded an academic skills segment in one of the introductory units that they teach in a postgraduate MBA program. This resulted in a statistically significant reduction in plagiarism among the students who participated in the unit. Copyright. Monash University and the author/s

The inventorying and accession cataloging of the artifact collection were conducted at the Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst (JB MDL) Environmental Division Historic Preservation Office from December 5th-17th 2015 by TEAMS Enterprise, USDA Forest Service employees. Services began prior to initial inspection of artifact collections and cultural resource documents housed at the JB MDL Environmental Division Historic Preservation Office in Fort Dix, New Jersey. The agreed upon scope of work was to update the contents of the 2010 Inventory and create an accession catalog for it. The artifact collection at the time of this work was stored in the Field Archaeology Lab in locked cabinets. The boxes had been moved since the 2010 curation work had been completed, and several of the artifacts were missing. There are currently 39 boxes with Box #38 completely filled with associated cultural survey reports. This report references another report in tDAR, which has further details of the artifacts originally collected, "Report of Archaeological Curation Services and Finding Aid for Archaeological Collections, Joint Base-McGuire Dix Lakehurst Environmental Division-Historic Preservation Office" (2010), https://core.tdar.org/document/438011.

This paper presents a conceptual model of the work effort decision of individuals and thereby advances our understanding of workaholism and other patterns of high or low work involvement and high or low work enjoyment. Researchers have categorized eight main types of work behaviors using the triad (i) quantity of work effort supplied, (ii) psychic need to work, and (iii) enjoyment derived from work. Workaholics (or work addicts), ‘enthusiastic workaholics’ and work enthusiasts’ all work long hours but only the first two groups are driven by a psychic need to work, and only the latter two groups gain high enjoyment from work. While the positive and negative consequences of long work hours have been discussed at considerable length, the antecedents of the individual’s decision to supply work effort have not previously been explored in depth. We build a model that links together the three constructs of the ‘workaholism triad’ and also incorporates the individual’s economic orientation, leisure orientation, and perquisite orientation. Accordingly we distinguish four main drivers of work effort levels, and argue that only one of these is associated with the classic view of workaholism. We identify three distinct types of work enthusiast and thus extend the typology of workers to ten groups, and offer speculative reasons for the high/low work effort and work enjoyment levels associated with each group. We offer a series of propositions that are suggested by the conceptual model for further research into this important area.
