A Message from the Chancellor
As Chancellor of Charles Darwin University it is an honour and a privilege to
congratulate the graduands of 2006.
Charles Darwin University was formed through the merging of institutions such as
the Northern Territory University, Centralian College, the Northern Territory Rural
College and Menzies School of Health Research. This state of the art institution has
grown into a place of learning for more than 18,000 students.
Charles Darwin University offers a fresh approach to education, with a wide
range of study options, excellent standards of teaching and an engaging learning
environment. This is a university that aims to inspire its students to acquire the
skills and knowledge to change their worlds for their own good and the good of
the community.
As well as being a celebration of knowledge, graduation ceremonies allow students
to share their pride and satisfaction in achieving their goals with their families,
friends, and the University staff who have supported and encouraged them
throughout their studies.
Graduation is not a farewell to the Charles Darwin University. We look forward
to welcoming back graduands as members of the Alumni or through continuing
formal studies and to the many symposia, lectures, concerts and events at the
University.
Congratulations again to the Charles Darwin University graduates of 2006. We have
no doubt we will be hearing of your continuing achievements in your work and the
community in the future.
Richard Ryan, AO

A Message from the Vice-Chancellor
Each of you, tonight’s graduates, has grown in knowledge, in competence and understanding
during your time as students at Charles Darwin University. Each of you, by deploying these
attributes to the greatest possible extent, will make a difference; a difference to your own
future, the future of your families, your community, the Northern Territory and the global
community.
You will be part of a rapidly changing world, where the only certainty is the development
of new knowledge and new ways of doing things – ongoing change is simply part of life.
Change provides opportunities and I hope you will welcome change and successfully
ride the waves that produce it. Remember Charles Darwin, the namesake of the Territory’s
university once said, “It is not the strongest of the species that survive, not the most
intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.”
The amount of information on any subject is growing at an ever-increasing rate. To move
from being a novice and eventually to expert we all must continue to learn and to apply
those learning’s. We must keep on learning in new fields as our roles change or we slip
back down the ladder to being a novice. I hope your time at Charles Darwin University has
resulted in you having a love of learning for life and that you will be open to new ideas.
With its roots in the Northern Territory University College founded in 1986, the Darwin
Institute of Technology, established from predecessor organisations the Northern Territory
Rural College, Centralian College and Menzies School of Health Research, Charles Darwin
University has a proud history of achievement.
As graduates of Charles Darwin University, you are becoming alumni of a University that
sees its role as providing vibrant learning, life-changing experiences and graduating
individuals with the foundation to be excellent thinkers, workers and citizens: a University
that equips its graduates with the generic skills to thrive in the complex world at large,
joining thousands of alumni in making their mark around the world and to take on the
particular challenges of the Northern Territory.
I hope you have enjoyed your university experience. I hope you will continue to learn and
that through your words and actions you will contribute to the development and reputation
of the Charles Darwin University, a university that aspires to work with its alumni, wherever
they may be, to provide an enriching experience. This evening is one of celebration; you
have achieved a significant milestone and we are proud of you. All of us in the University
join with your family and friends in saying “congratulations”.

A Message from Your Student Union
Firstly, congratulations on graduating at the Charles Darwin University. This is a
special achievement that should be celebrated with friends and family.
The Students’ Union sincerely hopes you enjoyed your time and experiences
throughout your course. Your dedication and hard work as a student to successfully
pass and graduate provides inspiration to aspiring graduates.
We hope that your experience with the Students’ Union was positive and that
we helped in some way to improve your time at the Charles Darwin University.
Students operating and supporting the Students’ Union is central to the success
of on-campus activities, and your participation and contribution was greatly
appreciated.
Hopefully some of the student services provided to you by the Students’ Union
eased the pressure of university life. However, many of the services you received
have recently been wound back as a result of federal government policy. Accordingly,
the future of the Students’ Union is severely threatened, and I therefore encourage
you to pass on good reports of your experience to current and future students,
in order to ensure that the increased levels of volunteerism now necessary are
forthcoming.
Once again, congratulations to all graduates on behalf of the Charles Darwin
University Students’ Union and we wish you all the very best luck with whatever
you chose to do in your future career.
Yours sincerely,
Nathan Franklin
President

Thesis title: Vocation education and Training (VET) as
a tool for regional planning and management: Case
studies from Australian tropical savanna communities
This project aims to determine the impact of
vocational education and training (VET) in different
kinds of communities in northern Australia. The
research covered rural, Indigenous, urban and mining
communities. It sought the views of industry, trainees,
communities and voluntary organisations. Over 100
interviews were conducted with people involved in
VET in Queensland and the Northern Territory. While
most people interviewed reported work, income and
education related outcomes, a range of other social,
cultural, health, environmental and safety benefits
were also found. Given the importance of culture, the
environment and tourism for the region, particularly
for Indigenous peoples it was found that VET was
an under-utilised tool for equipping people for their
livelihoods in the tropical savannas. One of the most
important factors contributing to effective training
was related to how it shapes a person’s ‘identity’ – that
is, how trainees understand themselves and how they
then relate to other people.
Paul George Horner
Thesis title: Systematics of the Snake-eyed Skinks, genus
Cryptoblepharus Weigmann (Squamata: Scincidae)
The thesis details taxonomic research on the
scincid genus Cryptoblepharus, a group of small,
arboreal lizards that was once believed to be a
single, broadly distributed species. Using two
independent discriminating techniques (allozyme
electrophoresis and comparative morphology) the
research investigated variation within and between
populations and was aimed at distinguishing
suspected ‘cryptic-species’. Principally focussed on
Australian populations, it was determined that the six
currently recognised species were species-complexes
that actually comprised 24 species. Also recognising
13 taxa from the southwest Indian Ocean and 22
from the Indo-Pacific regions, Cryptoblepharus was
determined to comprise a total of 59 taxa of which 17
are described as new. The thesis provides accounts
of each of these species, giving descriptions and
information on identification, distribution and natural
history. Overall, the thesis contributes to a greater
understanding of the biodiversity and conservation of
the Australian fauna.

Thesis title: Teacher identity and power relationships in
contexts of educational change: A case study of teachers
This qualitative study investigated teachers in
contexts of ongoing educational change. Utilising
the concept of ‘identity’, it considered the deeper
personal and professional implications of change on
eight early childhood teachers. Teachers discussed
Charles
Darwin
U n i v e r s i t y October Graduation Ceremony 2006
their educational interactions with change and the
data were analysed using a three-tiered approach that
included narrative, grounded theory and discourse
analysis methods, evidencing three themes of teacher
identity, power and change. In contexts of ongoing
educational change, these teachers experienced
some degree of personal and professional uncertainty
and instability. This put teachers at risk of eroding
the residual goodwill that has existed between
teachers and the education system. The study has
evidenced the ways in which the actions of the
educational system shape the value that teachers
assign to themselves and their working lives and
corrode teachers’ sense of value to their employer
and therefore has direct implications for teacher
effectiveness and student learning.
Noel Douglas Preece
Thesis title: Indigenous Savanna Managers in Northern
Australia: History, Law and Practice
Indigenous ecological knowledge is a substantial
resource for contemporary savanna management, but
has been substantially ignored. This thesis researched
historical material on IEK, analysed legal impediments
to application of traditional practices, and examined
management using traditional practices. Historically
Aboriginal people managed resources with fire,
wells and fisheries, and myriad other resource
management tools. Interpretations of observations
were affected by dramatic changes to indigenous
society. Traditional burning is being reinstated,
although influence of traditional fire in shaping biotic
landscapes and re-establishing customary practice are
contentious. Aboriginal practice has been dismissed
as pyromania, and consequences for management as
incidental, which is at odds with available evidence.
Misunderstanding arises from contrasting views
of objectives, values and goals. An impediment to
ecological and reinstated traditional fire is bushfire
legislation. Changes to existing law are needed for
better savanna management.

Thesis title: Development of Intellectual Property
Legislative Regimes in the GCC Members State of the
Arab Gulf
This thesis examines the intellectual property
protection regimes of the Arabian Gulf Cooperation
Council (GCC) member states – Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman,
Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates
- in the context of their World Trade Organisation
membership, and the requirements of the WTO’s
TRIPS Agreement. The legal regimes, which have been
established virtually in the span of a single generation,
generally meet WTO and TRIPS standards. However,
the GCC states have faced international pressure to
adopt protection standards and laws which are not
always appropriate to their national imperatives and
societal and cultural mores. Hence a dichotomy exists
between the principle as enshrined in the legislation
and its practical application through enforcement.
Outside the WTO context, international pressures
continue to be applied through free trade agreements
and other bilateral treaties for even higher standards
of protection to be adopted. However, some
contentious areas of intellectual property rights
of particular local concern remain inadequately
protected, such as traditional knowledge and cultural
heritage, and indigenous biodiversity.
Terry Anne Whitebeach
Thesis title: Telling Someone Else’s Story: Writing the Life
History of Donald Alexander (Pwerle) Ross (1915-1999)
This aim of this thesis was to locate the life history

ancestry, within the history of the pastoral industry
and the history of race relations in the Northern
Territory, and also within a literary tradition of auto/
biographical and life history writing.
The thesis employs oral narratives, archival
documents, historical and literary theoretical material
to elucidate the ‘life and times’ of Don Ross.
Don Ross’s life history contributes to aspects of
Northern Territory history, including the pastoral
industry and legislation and government policies for
Indigenous people. The thesis also demonstrates the
complexity of cross-cultural collaboration. The thesis
helps elucidate Northern Territory history from ‘the
other side of the frontier’. It also demonstrates the
efficacy and positive outcomes of collaborative life
history writing.
