De Estándares Mínimos de Calidad a estrategias proyectuales: aportes disciplinares a los parámetros técnicos de la Vivienda Social en Argentina
Authors: Fiscarelli Diego , Bellot Rodolfo
Published: November 2020

Considerando al proyecto como herramienta fundamental en la producción de conocimiento y a la Investigación Proyectual como un marco epistemológico pertinente para una investigación en arquitectura, este trabajo propone reconocer estrategias proyectuales hacia la adaptabilidad en los Estándares Mínimos de Calidad para Viviendas de Interés Social.  Se hipotetiza que el cuerpo normativo no establece variables o indicadores que permitan establecer un patrón de referencia.

Aunque este trabajo recorta en la mediación de las políticas federales de vivienda en Argentina, en el análisis de la vivienda masiva se encuentra la posibilidad de revisar las pautas proyectuales que aún vigentes, determinan límites para la consideración de la adaptabilidad como factor mínimo de calidad. Como premisa describe además una particular y extendida forma de concebir el proyecto de la Vivienda Social. Parte de las conclusiones exponen que existe una relación directa entre el alcance de los estándares en términos discursivos y su valor técnico-proyectual –estrategias. Reconociendo esta situación como condicionante de la capacidad de los prototipos habitacionales para alcanzar satisfactorios niveles cualitativos, se sugieren entonces adecuaciones a lo establecido desde variables de interés específico para la arquitectura de la vivienda y como parte de los aportes disciplinares.

Published: November 2020

El artículo presenta reflexiones epistémicas, en el campo de la producción de hábitat, que los autores vienen realizando desde más de una década, sobre experiencias en el marco de proyectos de investigación-acción financiados por el sector de Ciencia y Tecnología de Argentina. El mismo expresa resultados críticos para la actualidad a modo de provocación y con la expectativa de plantear un cambio.

La selección de los temas de investigación, en general, se asientan en fronteras de conocimientos no necesariamente implicados con la realidad nacional. Por ello, se promueve un escenario habilitante para investigaciones que iluminen la resolución de problemas inherentes a nuestro contexto, con base en la co-construcción del conocimiento, a partir de un eco-sistema cognitivo y organizativo existente que puede redireccionarse.

Se expone finalmente una propuesta política-ideológica intersectorial, a partir de la articulación de actores provenientes de la producción, la educación, la política y la tecnociencia en el marco de una red federal para la producción asociativa y cooperativa del hábitat.

Published: November 2020

Current trends in the development of new drugs are based on the creation of nanostructured compositions with improved characteristics. One of the approaches to creating a nanoscale form of drugs, in particular 20-hydroxyecdysone, is the synthesis of its clathrate complex with the clathrate-forming arabinogalactan. Thus obtained nanoscale form of 20-hydroxyecdysone provides an improvement in its physico-chemical properties, which leads to increased absorption, increased bioavailability and, ultimately, to reduce therapeutic doses. In the present work, the effect of the created nanoscale form of 20-hydroxyecdysone on the function of the antioxidant defense system, natural resistance, growth and development of Sovetskaya Chinchilla rabbits was studied for the first time. It has been established that the nanoscale form of 20-hydroxyecdysone, when administered to rabbits at doses of 1.0 and 5.0 mg / kg body weight, contributes to a statistically significant increase in serum BASK and LASK levels, increased activity of the enzymatic unit of the antioxidant system, in particular SOD and catalase in erythrocyte lysate. On the contrary, the content of MDA in the blood plasma was statistically significant [P≤0.05 — P≤0.02] was lower in rabbits of the experimental groups compared with the control, which may indicate a decrease in lipid peroxidation processes in animals under the influence of nanoscale form 20-hydroxyecdysone. In the rabbits of the experimental groups, compared with the control, they were statistically significantly higher by 32-38% [P≤0.05–P≤0.01] absolute and average daily weight gain of rabbits. The optimal dose of the nanoscale form of 20-hydroxyecdysone is dose 1, 0 mg / kg rabbit body weight.

Authors: Kovalyuk N. , Yakusheva L. , Kuzminova E. , Shiryaeva E. , Abramov A. , Semenenko M.
Published: November 2020

Leptin is a hormone produced by adipocytes — cells of adipose tissue, involved in the regulation of eating behavior, affecting the reproductive function, as well as the growth and Constitution of animals. In certain physiological conditions in cows, intensive use of their own fat reserves leads to excessive appearance of volatile fatty acids in the blood, which, in turn, become «satiety signals» and lead to a reduction in feed consumption. At this point, the genetic characteristics of the animal associated with the regulation of metabolism, eating behavior, contributing to or preventing the possible development of ketosis become particularly important. The aim of the research is to determine the possible influence of the leptin locus genotype (y7f, a80v, R25C polymorphisms) on the frequency of ketosis in cattle. We have genotyped Holstein breeding bulls (PCR/RFLP) belonging to WWS (USA) based on the A80V, R25C, and Y7F loci of the leptin gene, which were evaluated by their daughters and «ketosis resistance coefficients» (Wellness trait index (WT$) ketosis) were determined with a high level of confidence. It was found that the group of breeding bulls with the AARRYY genotype is distinguished by a significantly higher average index of «daughters' resistance to ketosis» compared to the AARCYY and AVCCYY groups, which may indicate that the AARRYY genotype in breeding bulls is one of the genetic factors protecting their daughters from the development of ketosis. In addition, 150 Holstein cows were genotyped using the same loci, of which 50 had ketosis and 100 were healthy. In the group of healthy Holstein cows, compared with the group of animals with ketosis and hepatopathology, the AARCYY genotype was three times more common.

The research was carried out on 2 groups of Holstein cows-analogues in productivity, age and calving times in the transit period. One was a control, the other an experimental one. In addition to the main diet, 150 ml of liquid energy feed based on propylene glycol and glycerol was added to the cows of the experimental group two weeks before calving and 250 ml per day after calving, with the addition of dry microalgae Spirulina Platensis and the antioxidant dihydroquercetin, in a concentration of 0.1% by weight (EBA FA).Inclusion in the diet of cows EBA FA. it had a positive impact on milk productivity, chemical and physical properties and sanitary and hygienic condition of milk. In cows of the experimental group in the 1st and 2nd month of lactation, the average daily milk yield was 26.8 and 29.0 kg with a mass fraction of fat 3.74 and 3.78%, protein 3.32 and 3.07%, including true 3.10 and 2.85% and casein 2.57 and 2.42%; lactose 4.78 and 4.88% and the mass fraction of dry matter 12.72 and 12.51%, respectively, while in the control group cows they were equal in average daily milk yield of 24.0 and 26.5 kg, the mass fraction of fat 3.91 and 3.74%, protein 3.16 and 3.18%, including true 2.95 and 2.86% and casein 2.47 and 2.40%, lactose 4.80 and 4.88% and the mass fraction of dry matter 12.81 and 12.49%. Milk of cows of the experimental group was characterized by lower oxidation and better ORP, lower content of acetone and β-oximabutyric acid. The inclusion of EBA FA in the diet of cows had a positive effect on cows udder health as evidenced by a decrease in the content of somatic cells in the milk of cows of the experimental group by 25.2 and 50.2% in relation to the control, respectively, at the 1st and 2nd month of lactation. EBA FA also influenced the composition and dynamics of the content of fatty acids in milk. The fatty acid composition of the milk of cows of the experimental group at the 1st month of lactation was characterized by a lower content of myristic, palmitic, stearic and oleic acids and was characterized by a high content of polyunsaturated acids and transisomers. At the 2nd month, the content of oleic acid increased and the content of monosaturated acids increased .compared to the control.
Peculiarities of the course of the postpartum period in domestic reindeer females, its morphophysiology and behavioral reactions in the North-East of Russia (Republic of Sakha)

Published: November 2020

A growth in the number of deer and an increase in their productivity are closely related to the solution of the complex problem of reproduction and rational use of deer females. Significant damage to reindeer husbandry is caused by the barrenness of northern domestic deer, the level of which has been quite high in recent years. So, in the Republic of Sakha, on 01.01.2020, the number of domesticated reindeer was 152,068, of which female deer and heifers — 71,818, offspring per 100 females — 59, business yield amounted to 52 fawns per 100 females. The causes of infertility are very diverse, as the natural and climatic conditions of the breeding zones have a significant influence on the reproductive function of reindeer. In Yakutia, the main population of northern domestic deer is bred in mountain taiga and tundra natural-climatic zones, so there are about 55 thousand deer in the mountain taiga zone and more than 65 thousand deer in the tundra zone. In this regard, the study of the peculiarities of the postpartum period course in domestic reindeer females, its morphophysiology, and behavioral reactions depending on the natural and climatic conditions of breeding is of great importance.

Authors: Mazur V.A. , Pantsyreva H.V. , Kopytchuk Y.M.
Published: November 2020

Purpose. Study of the anatomical and morphological structure of the stem of winter wheat hybrids depending on fertilization backgrounds and seeding rates in agrocenoses of the Right-Bank Forest-Steppe natural zone of Ukraine. Methods. Observation, comparison, analysis and synthesis, forecast, field experiment. Results. The study of the dynamics of formation and functioning of the anatomical and morphological structure of the stem of winter wheat plants was carried out. The influence of the background without fertilizers and against the background of their increased level of application on the length of internodes (1-3) of stems in winter wheat agrocenoses was studied. It has been proven that seeding rates significantly influenced the length of the internodes. The influence of the background of mineral nutrition and seeding rates on the main anatomical and morphological parameters of winter wheat stems, in particular, the thickness of the stem and ring of mechanical tissue, the number and diameter of vascular-fibrous bundles was studied. It was found that the strength of the straw is largely determined by the number of vascular-fibrous bundles, as well as their diameter. It was the biggest on the variants with the increased fertilization background. It is noted that anatomical and morphological studies are needed in order to ensure the development of a more durable straw, which determines high resistance to lodging at a seeding rate of 3 and 1.5 million seeds/ha. Conclusions. On the basis of the conducted studies, it was found that the soil and climatic conditions of the years of the study and the factors that were studied have a direct influence on the anatomical and morphological parameters of wheet. At the same time, the best conditions for the maximum realization of the potential of the Patros hybrid of winter wheat plants were created in the experimental variants with a seeding rate of 3 and 1.5 million seeds/ha, ensuring the development of a more durable straw, which led to a high resistance to lodging.

Purpose. To establish changes in the level of accumulation of raw ash, macro- and microelements, heavy metals and nitrates in dry feed biomass of different varieties of meadow clover depending on the elements of the growing technology in the Right Bank Forest-Steppe natural zone of Ukraine. Methods. Field and laboratory – for field and laboratory research, analytical – to determine mineral composition of dry meadow clover biomass. Results. Dry fodder mass of different varieties of clover under different elements of cultivation technology accumulated raw ash in the range of 8.5-8.9%, including macroelements (phosphorus – 0.32-0.37%, potassium – 2.21-2.52%, calcium – 0.49-0.58%, magnesium – 0.16-0.19%), nitrate nitrogen (N–NO3) – 0,02-0,05%, microelements (zinc – 13.7-14.8 mg/kg, copper – 3.5-4.9 mg/kg, manganese – 44.0-48.3 mg/kg and iron – 64.4-68.8 mg/kg) and heavy metals (lead – 1.8-1.9 mg/kg, nickel – 1.8-1.9 and cadmium – 0.2-0.3 mg/kg). Relation of dry matter content of potassium to the sum of calcium and magnesium content was in the range of 3.0-3.9 and calcium to phosphorus – 1.4-1.8. Conclusions. The content in the dry fodder mass of meadow clover of the studied macro- and microelements and their ratio did not exceed the zootechnical norms for feeding cattle. The method of sowing meadow clover did not significantly affect the accumulation of these mineral elements. Dry mass of the Lybid variety accumulated a little more potassium, and calcium and manganese were accumulated by the Typhoon variety. For the application of mineral fertilizers in doses Р60K90 and N60P60K90 compared to the variant where only inoculation of seeds with nodule bacteria was carried out an increase of crude ash, phosphorus, potassium in the dry matter content was observed. For the introduction of nitrogen at a dose of N60 without exceeding the maximum allowable concentrations, there was a slight increase in the content of nitrate nitrogen, as well as zinc, copper and manganese.

E2F5 is differentially expressed in the tumors of breast cancer patients treated with trastuzumab.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: November 2020

Trastuzumab (Herceptin) is a monoclonal antibody targeting the extracellular domain of the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) (1) utilized for the treatment of adjuvant and metastatic breast cancer (2) in the United States and worldwide. We mined published microarray and gene expression data (3, 4) to discover in an unbiased manner the most striking transcriptional features of trastuzumab treatment. We identified the transcription factor E2F5 (5) as among the genes most differentially expressed in the primary tumors of patients with breast cancer treated with trastuzumab. The primary tumors of breast cancer patients treated with trastuzumab expressed higher levels of E2F5 messenger RNA than did patients not treated with trastuzumab, and a single administration of trastuzumab was sufficient to result in differential expression of E2F5 in primary tumors of the breast, demonstrating that a transcription factor important for progression of the cell cycle into the S-phase is likely transcriptionally induced by trastuzumab.
Trastuzumab administration in patients with breast cancer is associated with increased primary tumor expression of CEACAM1.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: November 2020

Trastuzumab, a monoclonal antibody targeted against the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is utilized for the treatment of human breast cancer (1, 2), but a complete understanding of how tumor signal transduction is modulated by trastuzumab treatment is lacking. By mining published and public microarray and gene expression data (3, 4) from the primary tumors of patients treated with trastuzumab, we found that the cell adhesion molecule CEACAM1 was among the genes most differentially expressed in the primary tumors of patients treated with trastuzumab. Thus, a molecule whose expression is predictive of metastatic disease in patients with malignant melanoma (5) and whose expression in melanoma cell lines can support invasive properties (6) is expressed at significantly higher levels in the primary tumors of patients treated with trastuzumab for breast cancer.

Locate the Source of Resonance-Involved Forced Oscillation in Power Systems Based on Mode Shape Analysis
Authors: You Shutang
Published: November 2020

This paper proposed a new method to locate the source of forced oscillation that involves resonance with natural oscillation modes. The new method is based on comparing the oscillation mode shape of the forced oscillation with that of the natural oscillation that the forced oscillation resonates with. The oscillation source is the location that has the largest angle difference between the forced oscillation mode and the natural oscillation mode. Some examples in the actual U.S. EI system verified this approach.
Energy and Exergy Analyses of a Solar-based Multi-generation Energy Plant Integrated with Heat Recovery System and Thermal Energy Storage
Authors: Sadeghi Shayan , Ghandehariun Samane , Rezaie Behnaz
Published: November 2020

An innovative multigeneration energy system driven by solar energy is proposed in this paper. The integrated model produces electricity, hydrogen, oxygen, and steam for heating purposes. The energy system comprises a pressurized cavity-based solar power tower, latent thermal energy storage (TES) unit, unfired gas turbine (GT) unit, regenerative steam Rankine cycle (SRC), copper-chlorine (Cu-Cl) thermochemical cycle, and heat recovery units. By utilization of a high-temperature ternary eutectic phase change material (PCM), a dynamic model is developed to deal with the intermittency of solar energy. Using energy and exergy approaches, the proposed system is investigated to assess exergy destruction rates and the overall system performance. A parametric study is performed to investigate the influence of design parameters such as the number of heliostats, the pressure ratio of GT, and temperatures of reactions on the system performance. The results showed that the energy system produces electricity, steam, hydrogen, and oxygen at a rate of 41.9 MW, 12.6 kg/s, 0.19 kg/s, and 0.76 kg/s, respectively. Energy and exergy efficiencies of the integrated system are found to be 49.9%, and 44.9%, respectively.
Education for the Provision of Technologically Enhanced Legal Services
Authors: Janecek Vaclav , Williams Rebecca , Keep Ewart
Published: November 2020

Legal professionals increasingly rely on digital technologies when they provide legal services. The most advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) promise great advancements of legal services, but lawyers are traditionally not educated in the field of digital technology and thus cannot fully unlock the potential of such technologies in their practice. In this paper, we identify five distinct skills and knowledge gaps that prevent lawyers from implementing AI and digital technology in the provision of legal services and suggest concrete models for education and training in this area. Our findings and recommendations are based on a series of semi-structured interviews, design and delivery of an experimental course in ‘Law and Computer Science’, and an analysis of the empirical data in view of wider debates in the literature concerning legal education and 21st century skills.
The crossroads of digital phenotyping
Authors: Davidson Brittany I
Published: November 2020

The term ‘Digital Phenotyping’ has started to appear with increasing regularity in medical research, especially within psychiatry. This aims to bring together digital traces (e.g., from smartphones), medical data (e.g., electronic health records), and lived experiences (e.g., daily activity, location, social contact), to better monitor, intervene, and diagnose various psychiatric conditions. However, is this notion any different from digital traces or the quantified self? While digital phenotyping has the potential to transform and revolutionize medicine as we know it; there are a number of challenges that must be addressed if research is to blossom. At present, these issues include; (1) methodological issues, for example, the lack of clear theoretical links between digital markers (e.g., battery life, interactions with smartphones) and condition relapses, (2) the current tools being employed, where they typically have a number of security or privacy issues, and are invasive by nature, (3) analytical methods and approaches, where I question whether research should start in larger-scale epidemiological scale or in smaller (and potentially highly vulnerable) patient populations as is the current norm, (4) the current lack of security and privacy regulation adherence of apps used, and finally, (5) how do such technologies become integrated into various healthcare systems? This aims to provide deep insight into how the Digital Phenotyping could provide huge promise if we critically reflect now and gather clinical insights with a number of other disciplines such as epidemiology, computer- and the social sciences to move forward.

Understanding relational binding in early childhood: Interacting effects of overlap and delay
Authors: Benear Susan L. , Ngo Chi , Olson Ingrid R. , Newcombe Nora
Published: November 2020

Episodic memories typically share overlapping elements in distinctive combinations, and, to be valuable for future behavior, they need to withstand delays. There is relatively little work on whether children have special difficulty with overlap or withstanding delay. However, Yim, Dennis, and Sloutsky (2013) suggested that extensive overlap is more problematic for younger children, and Darby and Sloutsky (2015) reported that a 48-hour delay period actually improves children’s memory for overlapping pairs of items. In this study, we asked how children’s episodic memory is affected by stimulus overlap, delay, and age, using visual stimuli containing either overlapping or unique item pairs. Children aged 4 and 6 years were tested both immediately and after a 24-hour delay. As expected, older children performed better than younger children and both age groups performed worse on overlapping pairs. Surprisingly, the 24-hour delay had only a marginal effect on overall accuracy. Although there were no interactions, when errors were examined, there was evidence that delay buffered memory for overlapping pairs against cross-contextual confusion for the younger children.
Pandemics, Public Health Interventions and Fertility: Evidence from the 1918 Influenza
Authors: Wagner Sander , Tropf Felix C , Cavalli Nicolo , Mills Melinda C.
Published: November 2020

Understanding how pandemics — and the policy interventions to counter them — interact with demographic processes is of urgent scientific importance. Leveraging vital records from 26 major cities in the United States, we assess how variation in non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs), during the 1918 influenza pandemic influenced fertility. We find a strong reduction in fertility 9 months after pandemic peaks, with fertility dropping 20% in cities with short NPIs. Fertility a year later returns to pre-pandemic levels only in the cities with longer implementation of NPIs. The interplay between longer NPIs and reduced virus transmission appears to be the main mechanism increasing fertility 9 months after implementation.
Funkcja politycznych słów kluczy w memach internetowych
Authors: Niekrewicz Agnieszka A.
Published: November 2020

The subject of the study is the role of political key words used in memes. To determine their role, a semantic and stylistic analysis of Polish-language memetic statements from 2012–2019 was used, in which the following words were included: sorrel, mirabelles, trotyl, octopuses, light bulb, salad. The article shows that the use of key words even in a completely neutral context allows us to activate references to negatively evaluated events and situations, and to recall the emotions and views associated with them. In addition, quoting chronologically diverse examples of the use of key words has lead to the possibility of recreating the process of extending their meanings, which is the result of releasing quotes associated with a specific situation from their function.
Było, (nie) minęło. Przypomnienie tekstu Tony’ego McEnery’ego i Nicka Ostlera A New Agenda for Corpus Linguistics – Working with All of the World’s Languages
Authors: Pacuła Jarosław
Published: November 2020

In this text I refererate and comment the work from two decades ago. I recall an article important for corpus linguistics – the work of Tony McEnery and Nick Ostler from 2000. In their paper they argue that corpus linguistics needs to expand to cover a wider set of languages. The challenge of building a multilingual corps is admittedly current. The development of corpus linguistics still depends on technical capabilities, but today we see significant changes in this field. In the article I not only present the reflections of British linguists, but I also show current and outdated problems.
Kotły Beethovenowskie jako partytura braku
Authors: Szczerbowska-Prusevicius Katarzyna
Published: November 2020

W powieści Kotły Beethovenowskie Michała Choromańskiego kategorią centralną jest brak. Dotyczy on nieobecnych osób, zagubionych przedmiotów, nieuchwytnego znaczenia. Tekst akcentuje go wielokrotnie w autoreferencyjny sposób, np. przez użycie w różnych kontekstach pozornie mało atrakcyjnej metafory „dziura”. Obecność i nieobecność nie stanowią tu binarnej opozycji, ale się ze sobą łączą. Kotły Beethovenowskie są zatem i nie są powieścią kryminalną, Janek jest i nie jest pianistą. Znaki prowadzą w tym tekście swobodną grę z czytelnikiem, odraczając, a nawet niwecząc możliwość dotarcia do przekonującej interpretacji. Kotły Beethovenowskie, które konstytuują w świecie przedstawionym wydarzenia i twierdzenia po to, by je następnie poddać rozbiórce, mogą służyć jako literacka ilustracja dekonstruktywizmu.

Autorka stawia sobie za cel prześledzenie zabiegów Choromańskiego zorientowanych na uwypuklenie kategorii braku i odraczanie sensu oraz wskazanie na ich podobieństwo do niektórych założeń dekonstruktywistycznych. Na szczególną uwagę zasługuje tytułowy motyw kotłów Beethovenowskich, który w powieści uruchamia mechanizm błędu kojarzący się z Derridowską différance.

From Baranowski to Baranauskas, from James to Ngũgĩ: Post-Colonial Aspects of Linguistic Switch
Authors: Bukowiec Paweł
Published: November 2020

The article attempts to perform a comparative study of the phenomenon of the so-called linguistic switch, i.e., a change of languages in which the writer creates his/her works. One side of the analysis focuses on nineteenth-century Lithuanian poets, represented mainly by Antanas Baranauskas, and the other on the contemporary Kenyan prose writer Ngu˜g˜ wa Thiong’o. The juxtaposition of ı such extremely distant authors: 1. allows a better understanding of the specificity of multilingualism in both eighteenth-century Lithuanian literature and contemporary fiction; 2. proves once again the universality of postcolonial sensitivity; 3. constitutes an attempt at comparative thinking in the context of world literature.
Kobieta w dawnej literaturze polskiej. Inspiracje, wzorce, twórczość
Authors: Künstler-Langner Danuta
Published: November 2020

This paper presents the images of women in European culture and Old Polish Literature. The works devoted to women from the Middle Ages to Baroque focused on their social and political duties or artistic creation. The authors chose different literary forms: chronicles, poems, epigrams, laments, odes, sonnets, or epic works. The created characters included: a saint, a beloved lady, a donna angelicata, a hero of a chronicle or an autobiography. The works described their life, creative activity, or artistic aspirations. Some of them are panegyric poems, religious works, meditations, or love poetry. Women with an amazing sense of observation were discovering the space of literature and were participating in a world in its dynamic changes. They were excellent creators of humanistic and religious literature, referring to ancient tradition and European values.
Elementy poetyki ludowej w powieści Rzeczy uprzyjemniające. Utopia T. Bołdak-Janowskiej
Authors: Goral Agnieszka
Published: November 2020

The aim of the article is to analyse the elements of folk poetics in the novel Pleasant things. Utopia by T. Bołdak-Janowska. The category of folklore is understood in a rather narrow way, and at the same time it is most often used in critical and literary works as meaning a set of cultural features (customs and rituals, beliefs and rituals, symbols, beliefs and stereotypes) whose carrier is the rural folk. The analysis covers such elements of the work as place, plot, heroes, folk system of values, folk rituals, customs, and symbols. The description is conducted based on the analysis of source material as well as selected works in the field of literary text analysis and ethnolinguistics. The analysis shows that folk poetics was creatively associated with the elements of fairy tales and fantasy in the studied work, and its role consists of – on the one hand – presenting the folk world represented and – on the other – presenting a message about the meaning of human existence.
Inter-Institutional Collaboration for the Development of a Local Peer Observation Process to Enhance Teaching
Authors: Hassel Diana M. , Fahie Maria , Löhr Christiane V. , Halsey Rachel L. , Vernau William , Gorman Elena
Published: November 2020

Local peer observation of teaching is considered an important mechanism for instructors to improve the quality and effectiveness of their teaching, but there is an absence of uniformity to establish a best practice for this process in veterinary curricula. The Regional Teaching Academy (RTA) of the Consortium of Western Colleges of Veterinary Medicine is comprised of educational advocates from five western veterinary colleges with a common goal of enhancing the quality and effectiveness of education in veterinary medical curricula. Members of the RTA recognized this deficit in best practices for local peer observation (LPO) and formed a working group called “Local Peer Observation of Teaching.” The goal was to meet a critical need for the enhancement of individual teaching skills by using a scholarly approach to develop robust methods for peer observation of teaching. Two rubric-based instruments were developed: one for large-group/didactic settings, and the second for small-group/clinical settings. Each is accompanied by pre- and post-observation worksheets which are considered instrumental to success. Results of a qualitative survey of instrument users’ experiences are shared. Both observers and observees view the experiential learning from faculty peer colleagues very positively and the meaningful feedback is appreciated and incorporated by observees. Suggestions for implementation of the peer observation process are discussed, considering strengths and challenges. The purpose of this article is to describe in depth, the development process and output of the efforts of the Local Peer Observation of Teaching working group as a potential best practice guideline for peer observation.

Provincial Shakespeare
Authors: Marlow Christopher
Published: November 2020

With reference to aspects of the career of the twentieth-century actor-manager Donald Wolfit and the use of the concept of provincialism in English criticism, this article argues that idealist and universalist values are repeatedly valorised in order to devalue materialist and what might be called ‘provincial’ interpretations of Shakespeare’s plays. I pay attention to conditions of production of early modern drama in the sixteenth century, and to Wolfit’s Second World War performances of Shakespeare, the reception of which is offered as evidence for the persistence of a critical prejudice against what is understood as provincial marginality. The article concludes with a reading of The Merry Wives of Windsor that argues that the play supports the provincial values that have so often been dismissed by critics.
[I] ‘did write this Wyll with my own hand’
Authors: Markidou Vassiliki
Published: November 2020

This article attempts for the first time to shed light on the politics of simulation and dissimulation in Isabella Whitney’s ‘Wyll and Testament’. It also argues that the poem both reflects its creator’s awareness of the celebrated English historical and topographical narratives and deviates from them by crucially omitting a seminal part of London’s history, namely its Troynovant tradition. In so doing, as well as by defining a paradoxical urban landscape, Whitney presents a tale not of the (mythic) founding of the English capital with its patriarchal and nation-building connotations, but of its (satiric) bequeathal by benevolent femininity, as such offering its reader a different angle from which to explore and interpret early modern London.
