Recognising that graduate supervisory practice is not an abstracted academic pursuit, but an activity that is subjectively bounded by content and context, impacted by the experiences and beliefs of supervisee and supervisor, this text explores the unique dynamics of graduate supervision in the Global South, as perceived and experienced by students and academics within those same contexts. Bringing together contributions which reflect a rich diversity of perspectives on supervisory practices at regional universities in the Caribbean and South Pacific, Graduate Research Supervision in the Developing World explores how supervisors navigate unscripted supervisory terrain; contextualise supervisory best practices; establish roles and relationships, and work to understand supervisees' needs. By highlighting the effect on graduate supervision of complex sociocultural interplay and the relationship between learning environments and student success, contributors look to locate best practices through analyses of stories of success and failure. As the contributors demonstrate, there is a need to restructure the standardised operation of graduate supervision across diverse faculties. This text will be of great interest to graduate supervisors and their supervisees as well as scholars in the fields of continuing professional development and higher education, in international and comparative education and Sociology of Education.

Eight-volume collection of animations based on the Marvel Comics characters. In 'Astonishing X-Men: Gifted', Dr. Kavita Rao (voice of Eva Christensen) appears to have found a cure for mutant superheroes Wolverine (Marc Thompson), Cyclops (Gregory Abbey), Beast (Mike Pollock), Kitty Pryde (Eileen Stevens) and Emma Frost (Erica Schroeder). They are reluctant to receive the treatment, however, especially when the arrival of an extraterrestrial foe threatens humankind.

A shocking secret is revealed and the X-Men find themselves fighting for their survival.

In 'Astonishing X-Men: Unstoppable', the X-Men must save Earth from an attack by the Breakworld aliens who plan to fire a gigantic bullet that would lead to the planet's complete destruction. In 'Iron Man: Extremis', Mallen (Ted Lewis), a soldier intent on seeking revenge for the death of his family, gets hold of an experimental military serum known as Extremis. After being injected with the drug, Mallen acquires extraordinary powers that even billionaire Tony Stark aka Iron Man (Jason Griffith) can't defeat. Now critically wounded after battling the vengeful villain, Stark has no choice but to use Extremis himself in order to save the day.

Klaw assembles an almighty army with which to invade Wakanda, meaning the Black Panther will have to push his powers to the limit if he is to save his country and people from harm. 'Thor and Loki: Blood Brothers' follows the villainous Loki (David Blair) and his superhero adoptive brother Thor (Daniel Thorn). After becoming the new king of the mystical realm Asgard, Loki is soon faced with the reality of ruling over his land.

ReCalling Early Canada is the first substantial collection of essays to focus on the production of Canadian literary and cultural works prior to WWI. Reflecting an emerging critical interest in the literary past, the authors seek to retrieve the early repertoire available to Canadian readers-fiction and poetry certainly, but family letters, photographs, journalism, and captivity narratives are also investigated. Filling a significant gap in Canadian criticism, the authors demonstrate that to recall the past is not only to shape it, but also to reshape the present. This fresh interest in the cultural past, informed by new approaches to historical inquiry, has resulted in a unique and diverse investigation of more than two centuries of a little known "early Canada."
