Did the roadmap for differentiation was first proposed in the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario\u2019s (HEQCO\u2019s) 2010 report T<\/em>he Benefits of Greater Differentiation of Ontario\u2019s University Sector<\/em> (Weingarten & Deller)<\/a> and the subsequent framework created by MTCU in 2013<\/a> yield differentiated SMAs for SMA2?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used a corpus-based critical discourse analysis to interpret the data in six key sections of each university\u2019s SMA2 in relation to the corpus itself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Corpus Linguistics word-lists and concordance links were used to computationally quantify and qualitatively analyze six specific sections of SMAs.  Word-lists provide insight into the frequency of the use of terms, where concordance allows for analysis of words in context, because unlike word-lists, the linkages are depicted to allow for words (or groups of words) to be studied in their more or less immediate environment.  Voyant-Tools\u2019 Terms<\/em> table and Links<\/em> graph were used to determine selected content words\u2019 collocations and meaning signified by the words\u2019 semantic lexical relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I started with the ranked word-lists for each section, the analysis then identified where specific SMA2s were differentiated from the corpus for that section. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

More on the basics of the SMA2 document structure can be found in this post Ontario SMA2\u2019s Basic Document Structure<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vision, Mission and Mandate<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"1<\/a>
Vision, Mission and Mandate Ranked Word-List and Collocation Links<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Most SMA2s had similar themes to the corpus\nitself, though the word length or proportion of the SMA2 for this section\nvaried from Wilfrid Laurier University\u2019s 4%, the most common 6% (McMaster\nUniversity, Queen’s University, University of Toronto, University of Waterloo,\nUniversity of Windsor, and York University) to OCADu which had the longest\nsection at 1441 words. It was also proportionally the longest, representing 18%\nof their SMA2. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Universities were differentiated from corpus through a number of themes.  Foci on teaching themes over research were reflected in three SMAs: Algoma University\u2019s did not mention research, Trent University and the University de Hearst had teaching and pedagogical themes that were more prevalent than the corpus.  The student experience or perspective was greater in York University\u2019s as \u201cstudent\u201d was the second most prevalent word.  The pronoun \u201cwe\u201d was the most used word and started many of York University\u2019s statements, describing the university\u2019s attributes as being of the people associated with the university.  Western University proclaimed the best student experience for a several areas, including discovery, research and other areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other SMAs were differentiated by the prominence of a single topic: Brock University and community, Carleton University and regional items, Nipissing University and indigenous, OCADu and design, Queen\u2019s University and exceptional or excellence, the University of Guelph and science, the University of Ottawa and French, the University of Ottawa and experience, the University of Toronto and global rankings, and the University of Windsor and their commitments to a number of topics and stakeholders.  Notable by the lack of prominence was the theme of research in Algoma University\u2019s and Lakehead University\u2019s SMA2s\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Student Experience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Student Experience Ranked Word-List and Collocation Links<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Thematically, all SMA2s were similar in this section.  None were differentiated by omission and there were only a few instances of extra prominence.  Career themes were more prominent for Brock University and Wilfrid Laurier University.  International students were prominent within Trent University\u2019s section.  The University of Toronto\u2019s section focused on sexual violence or harassment and international students.  It was also the second shortest section by word count and proportion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Innovation in Teaching and Learning Excellence<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"1<\/a>
Innovation in Teaching and Learning Excellence Ranked Word-List and Collocation Links<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This section made up the smallest proportion of Brock University\u2019s SMA at 9%, 800 words, and the most of Lakehead University\u2019s at 21%, 3,396 words.  Brock University, McMaster University, and York University had a stronger focus on experience than the rest of the section corpus.  Queen\u2019s University focused on the spirit of inquiry.  The University of Waterloo focused on co-op.  UOIT\/OUT focused on online courses and online resources.  There was no differentiation in the form of themes that one SMA2 omitted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Access and Equity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Access and Equity Ranked Word-List and Collocation Links<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Brock University again had the shortest section at 6%, 545 words, and Nipissing University had the longest proportionally at 19%, 1,559 words, less than York University\u2019s 1,651 words and Lakehead University\u2019s 2,368 words.  The third most referenced word across the corpus was indigenous.  All SMAs included this theme, most with high prominence with Algoma University specifically referring to the Anishinaabe and Brock University having indigenous as a primary theme in a short section.  Universit\u00e9 de Hearst and the University of Ottawa had a greater discussion of access for French speakers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Research Excellence and Impact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"1<\/a>
Research Excellence and Impact Ranked Word-List and Collocation Links<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Universit\u00e9 de Hearst had the shortest section, 6% and 516 words, and the University of Windsor had the longest at 21%, 3,497 words.  Most SMA2s were similar to the corpus.  Extra significance was placed on community or region by Brock University, Lakehead University, Universit\u00e9 de Hearst, and Wilfrid Laurier University.  Industry was more prominent with Ryerson University, but partnerships were also significant for the University of Guelph, Carleton University and OCADu.  McMaster focused on rankings, and health as a topic.  OCADu had a greater focus on art and design.  The University of Guelph focused on health and food.  The University of Windsor focused on the international border and the Great Lakes.  Western University had interdisciplinary as the second most frequent word.  It was notable that the corpus had students as the fourth most frequent word, but it was very infrequently used by Western University and Wilfrid Laurier University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Innovation, Economic Development and Community Engagement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"1<\/a>
Innovation, Economic Development and Community Engagement Ranked Word-List and Collocation Links <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Nipissing University had the shortest section at 6% of total, 484 words, the shortest section of Nipissing SMA2 by half.  York University had the longest at 19% of the total, 2,460 words and the University of Toronto had the second most at 18%, 1,302 words, in the shortest SMAs of all.  There were no notable omissions, but universities were differentiated by their foci.  Brock University focused more on its region than others, as did Nipissing University and Queen\u2019s University.  Lakehead University, Laurentian University and the Universit\u00e9 de Hearst focused on development.  McMaster focused on health, but did not mention the fifth most frequently used word in the corpus \u201cstudents\u201d.  Ryerson University described their \u201czones\u201d in one of the longer sections.  The University of Guelph focused on food.  The University of Ottawa, the University of Waterloo and York University had a greater focus on entrepreneurship. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Differentiation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There is evidence of some differentiation, and most of us would be able to blindly identify the institution described in a random section. But the themes discussed are mostly the same, and differences were limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
