The Teachers Conception of Mathematical Modelling at Palembang
Authors: Hiltrimartin Cecil , Hartono Yusuf , Scristia Scristia
Published: March 2018

This studyaimed  to analyze mathematicsteachersconceptions(beliefs) about mathematical modeling in Palembang. In this study presents a case study of 60 mathematics teachers, investigating their conceptions about mathematical modeling and their experiences of working with modeling activities in Palembang. In particular, basic concepts of mathematical models, mathematical modeling, and mathematical modeling in education were analyzed. Quantitative data were collected through a questionnaire of sample of practicing teachers of mathematics in Palembang. The data showed that mathematics teachers in Palembang hold several misconceptions about models and modeling, particularly regarding aspects of the mathematical modeling process. Specifically, the majority of teachers does not understand that the mathematical modeling process always requires making choices and assumptions, and that mathematical modeling situations must come from real-world scenarios. The results indicate that the teachers in this study seem not to give priority to integrating mathematical modeling into their everyday mathematics teaching.

Authors: Hafni R N , Nurlaelah E
Published: March 2018

Critical thinking is a higher-order thinking skill which is believed to be able to enhance students’ ability in facing academic as well as real life challenges and problems. Student’s thinking skill is affected by their prior knowledge and experience, which play an important part in the decision-making process, a crucial phase and a compound process taking a principal role in all thinking levels. The purpose of this research is to find out students’ critical thinking skill in order to recognize the characteristics of students' thinking based on decision-making style. This research is a case study adopting a qualitative approach, using descriptive analysis. The data are collected using test, observation and interview. The results show that more than half students’ critical thinking skill is still on the lower cognitive complexity based on the decision-making style.
Improving The Achievement of Natural Science Learning on Plant Reproduction using Demonstration Method on Grade VI Students at Public Elementary school 7 of Patokan in The First Semester of 2015/2016 Academic Year
Authors: Slamet Slamet
Published: March 2018

Natural science was concerned with finding out the nature sistematically, so natural science was not only the mastery of a knowledge collection of facts, concepts or principles but also a process of discovery. Natural science learning might be conducted in scientific inquiry to cultivate the ability to think, work and be scientific and communicate it as an important aspect of life skills.The demonstration method was a way of presenting the lesson by demonstrating and showing the students of a particular process, situation or object learned in the actual form or in the form of an imitation shown by the teacher or other learning resources who was expert in the topic of discussion to be demonstrated.Meanwhile the objective of this research was: to know the improving of natural science learning result of plant reproductionusing demonstration learning method on grade VI students of SDN 7 Patokan Situbondo subdistrict Situbondo regency in first semester of2015/2016 academic year.This research used action research as much as two circles.

Developing Trade Relations between Vietnam-Germany
Authors: Thi Tinh Duong
Published: March 2018

More than 40 years of establishing diplomatic relations and developing trade between Vietnam and Germany, it can be seen that Germany is the biggest trading partner of Vietnam in Europe and the largest importer of Vietnam’s exports to the EU. Although the trade between the two countries has not reached expectations, and the results are still inferior to the potential, the prospects for trade between the two countries are great and need to be further developed due to the favorable context and the advantages of the free trade agreement between Vietnam and the EU. This paper analyzes the current state of trade relations between Vietnam and Germany, assesses the advantages and disadvantages, and suggests policy implications for developing trade relations between the two countries in the future.

Understanding the Capacity Loss in LNMO-LTO Lithium-Ion Cells at Ambient and Elevated Temperatures
Authors: Aktekin Burak , Lacey Matthew J. , Nordh Tim , Younesi Reza , Tengstedt Carl , Zipprich Wolfgang , Brandell Daniel , Edström Kristina
Published: March 2018

The high voltage spinel LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (LNMO) is an attractive positive electrode due to its operating voltage around 4.7 V (vs Li/Li+) and high power capability. However, problems including electrolyte decomposition at high voltage and transition metal dissolution, especially at elevated temperatures, have limited its potential use in practical full cells. In this paper, a fundamental study for LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 || Li4Ti5O12 (LTO) full cells has been performed to understand the effect of different capacity fading mechanisms contributing to overall cell failure. Electrochemical characterization of cells in different configurations (regular full cells, back-to-back pseudo-full cells and 3-electrode full cells) combined with an intermittent current interruption technique have been performed. Capacity fade in the full cell configuration was mainly due to progressively limited lithiation of electrodes caused by a more severe degree of parasitic reactions at the LTO electrode, while the contributions from active mass loss from LNMO or increases in internal cell resistance were minor. Comparison of cell formats constructed with and without the possibility of cross-talk indicate that the parasitic reactions on LTO occur because of the transfer of reaction products from the LNMO side. The efficiency of LTO is more sensitive to temperature causing a dramatic increase in the fading rate at 55 °C. These observations show how important the electrode interactions (cross-talk) can be for the overall cell behaviour. Additionally, internal resistance measurements showed that the positive electrode was mainly responsible for the increase of resistance over cycling, especially at 55 °C. Surface characterization showed that LNMO surface layers were relatively thin when compared to the SEI on LTO. The SEI on LTO does not contribute significantly to overall cell resistance even though these films are relatively thick. XANES measurements showed that the Mn and Ni observed on the anode were not in metallic state; the presence of elemental metals in the SEI is therefore not implicated in the observed fading mechanism through a simple reduction process of migrated metal cations.
Discordias y solidaridades: los preceptores de primeras letras en Puebla (1820-1860)
Authors: Marín Ibarra Mariana
Published: March 2018

La creación de la escuela pública mexicana, a partir de la era independiente, requirió la participación de los preceptores de primeras letras quienes se encargarí­an de forjar a los nuevos ciudadanos mexicanos. La presente investigación indaga cómo actuaron los preceptores en las escuelas públicas sufragadas por el Ayuntamiento de la ciudad de Puebla después de que se disolvió su gremio, en un estado que brindó ciertas facilidades y tí­mida infraestructura para la educación. Se muestra la serie de tensiones que tuvieron lugar entre el Ayuntamiento y los mismos preceptores durante varias décadas del siglo xix, tensiones que llevaron al grupo a construir solidaridades, especialmente en coyunturas adversas como la intervención norteamericana y los embates estructurales de las Leyes de Reforma.
El idioma mexicano visto desde las escuelas de pueblos tlaxcaltecas, 1900-1930
Authors: Castillo Molina Daniel Gibran
Published: March 2018

En este artí­culo1 analizo el uso oral de la lengua náhuatl en el contexto educativo de pueblos pertenecientes a la cabecera municipal de Santa Ana Chiautempan, Tlaxcala, antes y después de la Revolución mexicana. Para ello, rescato a los docentes originarios de pueblos sujetos y de la misma cabecera. El objetivo principal es mostrar el uso que se hace de una lengua indí­gena en los primeros años educativos de niños hablantes para que éstos puedan comprender sus clases y su acercamiento al español. Muestro que los maestros hablantes de la lengua nativa local de hecho la utilizaban en las comunidades y las aulas, aun cuando su uso fue tema de fuertes controversias entre los pedagogos mexicanos durante las primeras décadas del siglo XX, tanto antes como después de la fundación de la Secretarí­a de Educación Pública en 1921.
El Instituto Politécnico Nacional como educación popular: la fuerza de una idea, 1942
Authors: Ortiz Morales Andrés
Published: March 2018

El objetivo de este trabajo es identificar las causas que llevaron a un sector de la sociedad a enfrentar a las autoridades educativas, en 1942, debido a la pretensión de desintegrar el Instituto Politécnico Nacional (IPN) cuando éste apenas rebasaba un lustro de existencia. Se revisó el contexto de la creación del instituto y el proyecto polí­tico, económico y social de izquierda radical que lo arropó el cual entró en conflicto con el programa de unidad nacional que el presidente Manuel Ávila Camacho instrumentó en el marco de la segunda Guerra Mundial. Se encontró que durante el cardenismo se construyó el discurso que mostraba al IPN como conquista social de la Revolución mexicana, lo que de paso proporcionaba un elemento de legitimidad para la nueva élite "revolucionaria". Para los sectores movilizados (alumnos, profesores, sociedad capitalina, sindicatos nacionales), el IPN representaba una de las pocas expresiones tangibles de la anhelada justicia social que prometió la Revolución, era la posibilidad real de acceder a los beneficios del progreso que, a cuentagotas, llegaba a los sectores marginados. Esta idea resultó bastante significativa, más cuando consideramos que ha perdurado luego de 80 años de la creación de esta entidad educativa de carácter tecnológico-cientí­fico.

Authors: Berlotti Traspadini Oliveira Daniela De Cássia , Paradiso Silvio Ruiz
Published: March 2018

ResumoA intersecção entre pós-colonialismo e feminismo tem como foco negligenciadas questões: o colonizado e a mulher, respectivamente. Enquanto o feminismo – abordando as questões de gênero e sexualidade – tenta lutar para a libertação da mulher sob o sistema patriarcal, o pós-colonialismo oferece ao colonizado a oportunidade de lutar contra o legado imperialista. Há uma acentuada preocupação, tanto do pós-colonialismo como do feminismo, sobre a importância da linguagem para a formação da identidade e para a construção da subjetividade. O presente artigo propõe uma análise do conto Our Lady of the Massacre (1976), de Angela Carter. A partir da teoria pós-colonial, analisar-se-á o colonialismo, o gênero e a violência sofrida pela mulher diante do patriarcalismo, além de uma relação análoga mulher/colônia.Palvras-chavePós-colonialismo.

Virginia woolf, clarice lispector e judith grossmann: temáticas, poéticas e locais de fala
Authors: Lima Luciano Rodrigues
Published: March 2018

ResumoO trabalho aborda, comparativamente, as temáticas e poéticas de três escritoras de períodos diferentes: Virginia Woolf, da primeira geração do modernismo na Inglaterra, com publicações entre 1915 e 1941, Clarice Lispector, que publicou sua obra entre 1944 e 1978, e Judith Grossmann, a qual começa a publicar em 1959. A análise de textos diversos das três escritoras demonstra uma divergência temática e estética, de onde se pode inferir que produziram poéticas e escritas divergentes e autônomas. Constata-se, também, que existem traços convergentes quanto ao local de fala das três escritoras, todas conscientes da necessidade da existência de uma escrita feminina, em que a mulher escritora se represente e a leitora se sinta representada.Palavras-chaveEscrita feminina.

Indonesian people have so many tribes that various language are used. It happens for many cultures growing around citizens. Various language used by fishmongers also have unique varieties that could be distinguished from other sellers. It could be seen when they sell their goods. Language variety viewed from phonology aspect could interpret phoneme addition, reduction or change. Fishmongers� speech in Demak market have their own unique characteristics. These varieties were the attractions of this research. Purpose of this research was to describe fishmongers� speech in Demak Regency based on phonologic study. The used method was qualitative description method which do not need numbers. Data needed by this research were in forms of words, phrases, sentences and speeches of fishmongers in Demak Regency. Result of the study described language variety as viewed from phonologic study. There were phoneme change (to make buyers clearly heard what fish was being offered), phoneme reduction (to make sellers quickly delivered speech to offer their fish to buyers), and phoneme addition (to ease fishmongers to deliver speech) so that fishmongers� aim to sell their fish could be accepted by the buyers.

Pola sebaran horizontal dengan konsentrasi tertinggi terdapat di stasiun ke-2 dengan nilai kelimpahan lebih dari 30.000 sel/m3.
Characterization of interfaces in tri-layered brass/steel/brass composites fabricated by casting and hot dipping
Authors: Rahimi Amir Mahdi , Amadeh Ahmad Ali
Published: March 2018

Tri-layered brass steel/brass laminated composites were fabricated through hot dipping as well as casting. The chosen temperatures for hot dipping were 1 150 °C and 1 350 °C and for casting was 1 150 °C in addition to performing a heat treatment cycle at 900 °C for 90 min. The characterization results revealed that in the as-cast and the heat-treated samples, the formation of Fe-Zn intermetallic compounds occurred. In addition, with increasing the hot dipping temperature, stronger interfaces were achieved due to easier diffusion at higher temperatures. Moreover, casting without heat treatment was enough to obtain good bonding since the amount of Fe3Zn10 intermetallic compound increased and grain growth occurred.
Détection d’événements indésirables par la méthode des trigger tools à partir des dossiers de régulation au sein d’un CRRA 15
Authors: Bechu M. , Payet I. , Bounes V.
Published: March 2018

Objectif : La méthode dite des trigger tools permet une analyse objective, rapide et fiable des risques portant sur l’examen de dossiers de patients ciblés afin de mettre en évidence des d’événements indésirables (EI) évitables ou porteurs de risques (EPR). L’intérêt de cette méthode n’a jamais été étudié dans le cadre d’un centre de réception et de régulation des appels 15 (CRRA 15). L’objectif était d’évaluer la pertinence de triggers choisis au sein d’un CRRA 15 afin de mettre en place un système de détection d’EI par la méthode des trigger tools.

Matériel et méthodes : Au sein du SAMU 31, au CHU de Toulouse, les dossiers de régulation (DR) étaient extraits en cas de déclenchement de triggers prédéfinis : délais de départ SMUR, délais d’arrivée, temps de prise en charge sur place, délais de décision d’envoi d’une équipe SMUR après le premier appel, patients décédés et réorientations des patients dans les 48 heures. Le critère de jugement principal était le pourcentage d’EI évitables et d’EPR, parmi les patients dont le dossier a déclenché un trigger donné, c’est-à-dire la prévalence du trigger. Les critères de jugement secondaires étaient la gravité de chaque EI évitable selon l’AHRQ severity scale et les facteurs favorisant leur survenue.

Résultats : Du 9 juillet 2011 au 13 avril 2012, 174 536 DR ont été traités, 4 404 (2,5 %) ont déclenché un trigger (soit 2 882 patients). On retrouvait 203 DR avec un EI, qui concernaient 153 patients ; 73 présentaient un EI évitable, 16 un EPR, 30 un EI non évitable. La prévalence de chaque trigger était de 17,6 % (IC 95 % : 4,8–20,4 %) pour celui « délai de départ », 6,7 % (IC 95 % : 3,7–9,7 %) pour le trigger « réorientation précoce », 6,4 % (IC 95 % : 4,6– 8,2 %) pour celui « délai de décision SMUR », 3,4 % (IC 95 % : 0,1–7,2 %) pour le trigger « temps sur place », 2,9 % (IC 95 % : 0,1–8,5 %) pour celui « délai d’arrivée » et 3 % (IC 95 % : 1,5–4,5 %) pour le trigger « décès ».

Conclusion : Les triggers qui semblaient les plus pertinents étaient donc « délai de décision SMUR », « réorientation précoce » et « décès ». La méthode des trigger tools permet une analyse rapide et efficace des DR, essentielle pour réduire le risque et améliorer la qualité de prise en charge des patients.
Circulating Air: Inspiration, Voice and Soul in Poetry and Song
Authors: Kay Sarah
Published: March 2018

This paper proposes an alternative view to the influential one of air or breath as inspiration that produces an imagined inner vision of the desired object. Instead, it outlines a poetics where air and inspiration connect with voice, language and music, thereby privileging sound over sight. A genealogy for this account is traced through Aristotle and various treatises connected to him, and an example of its operation is discussed in a song by the troubadour Bernart Marti. Voice is theorized as a kind of sound, including non-human sound, made by striking air, which expresses the soul's passions and marks both the boundary and the connection between air and soul. Poetry and song form soundscapes whose implications exceed the acoustic.
What is an Acousmatic Reading?
Authors: Noudelmann François
Published: March 2018

Thinking involves many elements of sound that philosophical tradition has repressed. Breathing, rhythms and collateral noises participate in the making of idealities, even the most abstract. In order to hear them, the voice needs to be considered as one sound among others and as multiple, even when it comes from the same speaker, following different protocols of enunciation. Listening to the recordings of seminars and studying the role played by modern sound technologies make it possible to hear subterranean meanings and tensions at the heart of mental elaboration. Thinkers and writers could be defined by the way they handle the acoustic environments favourable to the way they speak and write, whether by selection, mixing or silence. An ‘acousmatic’ reading aims to listen to this sonic investment in texts and to hear the complex vibrations of their thought.
‘The finest set of cup and ring marks in existence’: the story of the Cochno Stone, West Dunbartonshire
Authors: Brophy Kenneth
Published: March 2018

The Cochno Stone is one of the most extensive and highly decorated prehistoric rock-art outcrops in Britain. It is located on the northern urban fringe of West Dunbartonshire beside Faifley, Clydebank, in a park in the foothills of the Kilpatrick Hills. First re-discovered by antiquarians toward the end of the nineteenth century, this outcrop subsequently became the focus of the attentions of Ludovic McLellan Mann in the 1930s, who decorated the stone with an elaborate painted colour-scheme. Expanding urbanisation, visitor numbers and graffiti prompted the authorities to bury the stone beneath soil for its own protection in 1965. During two seasons of fieldwork in 2015 and 2016, the Cochno Stone was exposed for short periods of time to allow for an assessment to be made of the condition of the stone surface, and digital and photogrammetric recording to take place. Provisional results of the fieldwork are reported on here, but the main focus of this paper is to present as fully as possible for the first time the biography of the Cochno Stone from antiquarian discovery to the present day. The paper concludes with thoughts about the future of this monument.
A Viking-age inhumation from Crow Taing, Sanday, Orkney
Authors: Dunbar Lindsay , Roy Mike
Published: March 2018

The islands of Orkney have long been associated with examples of Viking-age activity and often yield unique and well preserved records from the Viking and Late Norse periods. Investigations on the island of Sanday in Orkney, as part of a call off contract for human remains between Historic Environment Scotland and AOC Archaeology Group, have revealed the presence of an inhumation in association with an iron knife. Further investigation reveals that the burial is that of an adolescent skeleton (12–17 years). The north-east/south-west alignment of the body, in a flexed position, and its association with an iron knife indicates a pre-Christian burial rite, in line with a 9th or 10th century AD date, which corresponds with radiocarbon dating carried out on the skeletal remains. This burial contributes a new record to the wealth of evidence from around this period within the surrounding landscape on the island of Sanday.
Review of State Boards of Nursing Rules and Regulations for Nurse Preceptors
Authors: L'Ecuyer Kristine M. , Lancken Shelley von der , Malloy Diane , Meyer Geralyn , Hyde Matthew J.
Published: March 2018

Background:

The clinical education of undergraduate nursing students relies heavily on the use of staff nurses who assume the preceptor role. The best and most efficient utilization of preceptors is unknown.

Method:

This study reviewed Board of Nursing rules and regulations for all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. territories for their published requirements regarding preceptors. Specifically, this review focused on preceptor–student and faculty–student ratios, role responsibilities, and requirements of preceptors and faculty in undergraduate precepted clinical experiences.

Results:

Although some commonalities were noted, such as eligibility (RN licensure), degree requirements (baccalaureate), and years of experience (1 to 3), 11 states had no documented regulations. The existing documents appear to lack depth, specificity, and consistency.

Conclusion:

Because preceptors are utilized to such a great extent, the eligibility, selection, preparation, and expectations of preceptors and faculty who work with them should be more explicit. [

Authors: Purpora Christina , Prion Susan
Published: March 2018

Background:

This study explored third-semester baccalaureate nursing students' perceptions of the value of using student-produced video as an approach for learning head-to-toe assessment, an essential clinical nursing skill taught in the classroom.

Method:

A cognitive apprenticeship model guided the study. The researchers developed a 34-item survey. A convenience sample of 72 students enrolled in an applied assessment and nursing fundamentals course at a university in the western United States provided the data.

Results:

Most students reported a videotaping process that worked, supportive faculty, valuable faculty review of their work, confidence, a sense of performance independence, the ability to identify normal assessment findings, and few barriers to learning.

Conclusion:

The results suggested that a student-produced video approach to learning head-to-toe assessment was effective. Further, the study demonstrated how to leverage available instructional technology to provide meaningful, personalized instruction and feedback to students about an essential nursing skill. [

Influence of Computer-aided Instruction Model on Business English Writing Teaching Effect
Authors: Li Xuefeng
Published: March 2018

To guide the college students through the Computer-aided Technology (CAT) to make writings of business English (BE) in the new teaching model, resources and methods, this paper carries out the application of CAT in BE writing teach-ing. It analyses the disciplinary characteristics of BE writing, conducts the BE in-struction scheme design in the models of interactive teaching, writing teaching and inquiry teaching respectively on the basis of the learning theories such as humanism etc., and then develop the teaching contract experiment accordingly. Two parallel classes were randomly selected as objects of study, where the exper-imental class applied the Computer-aided Instruction (CAI) method, while the contrast class followed the traditional teaching methods; then the quantitative and qualitative analysis for one-semester teaching application was made by the after-experiment scores of BE writings in these two classes. The study in this paper verifies the positive role of CAT in BE writing, and also offer the effective guid-ance for improving the BE writing teaching level by CAT.
Argumentative Knowledge Construction in an Online Graduate Mathematics Course
Authors: Bayazit Nermin , Clarke Pier Angeli Junor , Vidakovic Draga
Published: March 2018

The authors report on three students' argumentative knowledge construction in an asynchronous online graduate level geometry course designed for in-service secondary mathematics (ISM) teachers. Using Weinberger and Fischer's framework, they analyzed the ISM teachers' a) geometry autobiography and b) discussion board posts (both comments and attached work including solutions to assigned problems and Geometric Sketchpad explorations) throughout an 8-week summer course. The goal was to better understand the key similarities and differences in the nature of their interaction with each other and the course content that may have contributed to the differences in their knowledge construction. Findings led researchers to re-conceptualize a rubric to (1) assist instructors in facilitating productive interaction among students, (2) prepare students to better utilize the discussion board with a critical eye, and (3) provide specific guidelines for a more productive engagement among students, using the framework as a guide.
How Relevant Are Risk Perceptions, Effort, and Performance Expectancy in Mobile Banking Adoption?
Authors: Shaikh Aijaz A. , Glavee-Geo Richard , Karjaluoto Heikki
Published: March 2018

This article provides a comprehensive overview of the adoption process using evidence from m-banking adoption in Pakistan. A survey design was used and 189 responses were received from across Pakistan and analyzed using Smart PLS application. Findings suggest that research on the effect of risk in the adoption process remains inconclusive. Contrarily, consumers have overcome many fears due to the usefulness, indispensability, high security features, and effort expended in the use of financial services delivered through m-banking. Perceived risk's (PR) direct influence was found to be generally weak. However, PR plays a major role in the pre-adoption process because it's weak and direct inhibiting influence become an “enhancer” in the association between effort expectancy (EE) and the three key TAM/UTAUT constructs [performance expectancy (PE), attitude (ATT), and adoption intention (INT)]. Most importantly, the role of EE as a strong driver of PE, ATT, INT, and its significant interaction with PR highlights the unique role that both risk and EE play in the adoption process.

Published: March 2018

Businesses are shifting their marketing strategies towards social media for promoting their products and services. Online video advertisements are one of the fastest-growing platforms of social media advertising. This article provides detailed models to marketers providing knowledge of different factors impacting consumer purchase intention after watching online video advertisement. The purpose of this article is to propose a model comprising of advertisement value, attitude and their impact on purchase intention in case of online video advertisements amongst Indian youth. The analysis indicated that an advertisement value model given by Ducoffe was not applicable in case of online video advertisements. Invasiveness/Irritation has no significant impact on advertisement value as in case of Ducoffe's model although it significantly impacts attitude towards online video advertisements.
An Integrated Method for Assessing the Text Content Quality of Volunteered Geographic Information in Disaster Management
Authors: Hung Kuo-Chih , Kalantari Mohsen , Rajabifard Abbas
Published: March 2018

Volunteered geographic information (VGI) has the potential to provide much-needed information for emergency management stakeholders. However, stakeholders often lack scalability to identify useful and high-quality text content from the often-overwhelming amount of information. To solve this problem, most studies have concentrated on using text-related features in supervised learning models to classify text contents. This article proposes an assumption that the geographic attributes of VGI can be integrated into the model as features for enhancing the model's performance. To evaluate this assumption, the authors developed a case study based on VGI collected from two flooding events in Brisbane. They validated the accuracy of associated geographic coordinates and defined the geographic features relevant to the flood phenomenon. From their experiments, model based on this integrated method can have better performance in comparison with the model trained from the text-related features. The results suggest great potential for using the integrated method to harvest useful VGI for the needs of disaster management.
Technology Experiences of Student Interns in a One to One Mobile Program
Authors: Cullen Theresa A. , Karademir Tugra
Published: March 2018

This article describes how a group of student intern teachers (n = 51) in a one to one teacher education iPad program were asked to reflect using Experience Sampling Method (ESM) on their use of technology in the classroom during internship. Interns also completed summative reflections and class discussions. Data collected both in online and paper-based summative reflections were subjected to content analysis and triangulated with classroom discussions. The responses showed that interns tended toward teacher-focused uses of technology and were frustrated by their inability to use technology due to infrastructure or cooperating teacher beliefs and practices related to technology. Implications and plans for improved support is discussed.
Mobile Technologies as a Catalyst for Pedagogic Innovation Within Teacher Education
Authors: Caldwell Helen
Published: March 2018

This article reviews the use of mobile technologies within teacher education at the University of Northampton. In order to develop a strong commitment to digital literacy, the School of Education is using sets of teaching iPads with trainee teachers and has allocated an iPad to every member of the academic staff. Experiences from mobile technology projects involving ITT students, primary teachers and academics are shared to illustrate how mobile technologies have been a catalyst for new pedagogies based on a social constructivist model of learning in the teacher education programmes. The author aims to develop creative, self-directed learners who can work in collaborative teams within a professional community of teachers, academics and students. The author has considered ways in which mobile devices extend learning beyond taught sessions, and how the use of apps to make shareable digital artefacts can lead to purposeful engagement. To this end, the School of Education is focusing on a set of core apps that facilitate the creation, collaboration, curation, and capture of content.
Mobile Learning, Teacher Education, and the Sociomaterial Perspective
Authors: Koole Marguerite
Published: March 2018

This article is primarily a theoretical piece that uses a model of mobile learning, the FRAME model (Koole 2009), to explore a mobile teacher-training project that took place in Papua New Guinea: the SMS Story. The author takes a sociomaterial perspective, drawing upon Barad's agential realism and Sørensen's multiplicity perspective. As the author explores the “intra-actions” of the social, learner, and technological aspects of the FRAME model, diffraction patterns arise; in other words, spaces of social and material possibilities, constraints, and tensions come into view. New ethical questions emerge regarding whose perspectives and whose practices should come to matter in pedagogical practices. This article is intended for qualitative researchers, teachers, and teacher educators who are interested in alternative ways of thinking about the entanglement of mobile technology, humans, and materialities in educational contexts.
