description: Water covers about 70% of the earth’s surface and it exists naturally in the earth in all the three physical states of matter and it is always moving around because the water flows with the current. Out of the earth’s percentage of water covering the surface, only about 2.5% is fresh water and due to the fact that most are stored in deep groundwater, a small amount is readily available for human use. Water scarcity is becoming a major concern for people around the world and the need to protect the existing ones and find ways or means to provide safe water for individuals around the globe in adequate quantities with keeping the needs of future generations in mind. Water is life, and it is linked with lots of services either directly or indirectly, such as; human health and welfare and social and economic development of a community or country. The need to delve into Ghana’s water resources management is essential. The study reviewed existing literature on the various members of the Water Resource Commission (WRC) in Ghana; the various basins in the country; the existing measures that the WRC authorities have in place to deal with water resources management issues; the challenges that hinder the progress of their achievements and some suggestions that if considered can improve the current water resources management situations in Ghana.

description: The world is fast becoming a global village due to the increasing daily requirement of energy by all population across the world while the earth in its form cannot change. The need for energy and its related services to satisfy human social and economic development, welfare and health is increasing. Returning to renewables to help mitigate climate change is an excellent approach which needs to be sustainable in order to meet energy demand of future generations. The study reviewed the opportunities associated with renewable energy sources which includes: Energy Security, Energy Access, Social and Economic development, Climate Change Mitigation, and reduction of environmental and health impacts. Despite these opportunities, there are challenges that hinder the sustainability of renewable energy sources towards climate change mitigation. These challenges include Market failures, lack of information, access to raw materials for future renewable resource deployment, and our daily carbon footprint. The study suggested some measures and policy recommendations which when considered would help achieve the goal of renewable energy thus to reduce emissions, mitigate climate change and provide a clean environment as well as clean energy for all and future generations.

description: Global interest in using biomass feedstock to produce heat and power is increasing. In this study, RETScreen modelling software was used to investigate the feasibility of biomass heating system in Middle East Technical University, Northern Cyprus Campus. Weiss Kessel Multicratboiler system with 2 MW capacity using rice straw biomass as fuel and 10 units of RBI® CB0500 boilers with 144 kW capacity using natural gas as fuel were selected for the proposed biomass heating system. The total cost of the biomass heating project is US$ 786,390. The project has a pre-tax and after tax internal rate of return (IRR) of 122.70%, simple payback period of 2.54 years, equity payback period of 0.83 year, a net present value of US$ 3,357,138.29, an annual lifecycle savings of US$ 262,617.91, a benefit-cost ratio of 21.83, an electricity cost of $0/kWh and a GHG reduction cost of −204.66 $/tCO₂. The annual GHG emission reduction is 1,283.2 tCO₂, which is equivalent to 118 hectares of forest absorbing carbon. The development and adoption of this renewable energy technology will save costs on buying conventional type of heating system and result in a large technical and economic potential for reducing greenhouse gas emissions which will satisfy the sustainable development goals.
The Decima Research English Curriculum

Year: 2018

description: ln this final decade of the millennium Canadian educators at all levels are being asked to justify their programs and instruction in terms of the requirements of business and industry. Curriculum development does not escape such scrutiny. In this paper I describe the struggle that occurred over conflicting ideologies when a new English language arts K to 12 curriculum was being developed. I describe what occurred when a personal growth model of English language arts was directly challenged with an academic rationalist model justified on the basis of appeal to public opinion and the needs and requirements of technologically-sensitive commercial and industrial sectors. The struggle that took place in one Canadian province over what many educators consider to be the central subject area curriculum suggests that this ideological clash is likely to characterize the most serious challenge for professional educators in the decade of the 1990s.

description: In this study, a review of Ghana’s energy sector national energy statistics and policy framework is done to create awareness of the strategic planning and energy policies of Ghana’s energy sector that will serve as an informative tool for both local and foreign investors, help in national decision-making for the efficient development and utilization of energy resources. The review of Ghana’s energy sector policy is to answer the question, what has been done so far? And what is the way forward? The future research in Ghana cannot progress without consulting the past. In order to ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all, Ghana has begun expanding her economy with the growing Ghanaian population as a way to meet the SDG (1), which seeks to end poverty and improve well-being. There are a number of intervention strategies by Ghana’s Energy sector which provides new, high-quality, and cost-competitive energy services to poor people and communities, thus alleviating poverty. Ghana’s Energy sector has initiated the National Electrification Scheme, a Self-Help Electrification Program, a National Off-grid Rural Electrification Program, and a Renewable Energy Development Program (REDP). The REDP aims to: assess the availability of renewable energy resources, examine the technical feasibility and cost-effectiveness of promising renewable energy technologies, ensure the efficient production and use of the Ghana’s renewable energy resources, and develop an information base that facilitates the establishment of a planning framework for the rational development and the use of the Ghana’s renewable energy resources.

description: This paper presents an energy demand model by designing a hybrid solar-wind-thermal power generation system of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, a promising substitute for the expensive battery banks. The study models the future energy demand of Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus based on the IPCC emissions scenario A1B and A2 by designing a new hybrid solar-wind-thermal power system that satisfies the current and future requirements of firm capacity during peak periods. The study suggests an improvement in a hybrid solar-wind-thermal power system performance by predicting reliable outputs that can integrate renewable energy technologies to conventional power generation. The energy consumption prediction model emphasizes the energy requirement that has a growing demand from 300 to 400 GWh in scenario A1B and 150–450 GWh in scenario A2 from 2010 to 2050. The proposed design can meet 400 GWh of electricity demand in TRNC based on IPCC scenario A1B and 450 GWh of electricity demand in TRNC based on IPCC scenario A2. The percentage contribution of solar, wind and thermal energy for 2010, 2020, 2030, 2040 and 2050 are presented along with CO2 emissions and water consumption for each of the years.

description: Crocodilians are an order of ancient reptiles that thrive in pathogen-rich environments. The ability to inhabit these harsh environments is indicative of a resilient innate immune system. Defensins, a family of cysteine-rich cationic host defence peptides, are a major component of the innate immune systems of all plant and animal species, however crocodilian defensins are poorly characterised. We now show that the saltwater crocodile defensin CpoBD13 harbors potent antifungal activity that is mediated by a pH-dependent membrane-targeting action. CpoBD13 binds the phospholipid phosphatidic acid (PA) to form a large helical oligomeric complex, with specific histidine residues mediating PA binding. The utilisation of histidine residues for PA engagement allows CpoBD13 to exhibit differential activity at a range of environmental pH values, where CpoBD13 is optimally active in an acidic environment.
Creating Spaces for Teachers' Voices

Year: 2018

description: In this section two university researchers and one teacher researcher engage in a dialogue about the possibilities of including teacher research in our academic journals. Clandinin suggests, in her opening comments, that we have much to learn from li stening to teachers' accounts of their practices as we begin to create collaborative agendas for educational research shared with teachers. Black responds by inviting readers to imagine the poss ibilities that would be created by engaging in new relationships between researchers and teachers where there is an ongoing conversation that would reconfigure our work as teachers and researchers. Milburn responds by asking questions about the nature of teachers' accounts of their practices, about the criteria needed to judge the worth of teachers' stories, and about the validity of teachers' stories. Finally, Clandinin responds by wondering about the possibilities for written conversations between teachers and researchers.

description: The genetic variants identified by three large genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of educational attainment were used to test a polygenic selection model.Average frequencies of alleles with positive effect (polygenic scores) were compared across populations (N=26) using data from 1000 Genomes. The polygenic score of 161 GWAS significant SNPs in a recent meta-analysis was highly correlated to population IQ (r=0.863).SNP p value predicted correlation to population IQ and factors from the two previous GWAS (r= -.25). Factor analysis produced similar estimates of selection pressure for educational attainment across the three datasets. Polygenic and factor scores computed using the top 20 significant SNPs showed very high correlation to population IQ (r=0.88; 0.9).Similar findings were obtained using 52 populations from another database (ALFRED). The results together constitute a replication of preliminary findings and provide strong evidence for recent diversifying polygenic selection on educational attainment and underlying cognitive ability.

description: The genetic variants identified by three large genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of educational attainment were used to test a polygenic selection model. Average frequencies of alleles with positive (Beta) effect on the phenotype (polygenic scores) were compared across populations (N=26)using data from 1000 Genomes. Strong correlations between polygenic scores and population IQ were found. Moreover, the polygenic scores obtained from the three independent GWAS exhibited strong intercorrelations even after pruning for linkage disequilibrium. The method of correlated vectors revealed the presence of a Jensen effect of SNP p value on population IQ and factor from the two previous GWAS (r= -.25). Factor analysis produced similar estimates of polygenic selection strength for educational attainment across the three datasets. The SNPs from the largest GWAS were subset by p value (N= 7) and factor analyzed. An SNP set’s P value-rank correlated substantially (0.4) with a composite index including measures of predictive validity and reliability (r x population IQ, average factor loadings, r x factor scores from the 2 previous GWAS, SAC (spatial autocorrelation)-free effect on population IQ. Moreover, the composite index of factor reliability and validity was strongly correlated (r=0.96) to loadings on a factor extracted from the 7 factors (“meta-factor”). That is, the factors’ with stronger independent correlations to measures of accuracy had stronger loadings on the “meta-factor”. Nine hits were found to be in LD across publications. This produced replicated factor and polygenic scores with strong correlations to population IQ (0.89 and 0.82-0.9, respectively), surviving control for spatial autocorrelation (B= 0.69 and 0.35-0.79, respectively). The results together constitute a replication of preliminary findings and provide unequivocal evidence for recent diversifying polygenic selection on educational attainment and underlying cognitive ability.

description: Objective: The objectives of this study were to: (i) review and provide a narrative synthesis of three-dimensional (3D) foot surface scanning methodological and statistical analysis protocols, and (ii) develop a set of recommendations for standardising the reporting of 3D foot scanning approaches. Methods: A systematic search of the SCOPUS, ProQuest, and Web of Science databases were conducted to identify papers reporting 3D foot scanning protocols and analysis techniques. To be included, studies were required to be published in English, have more than ten participants, and involve the use of static 3D surface scans of the foot. Papers were excluded if they reported two-dimensional footprints only, 3D scans that did not include the medial arch, dynamic scans, or derived foot data from a full body scan. Results: The search yielded 78 relevant studies from 17 different countries. The available evidence showed a large variation in scanning protocols. The subcategories displaying the most variation included scanner specifications (model, type, accuracy, resolution, capture duration), scanning conditions (markers, weightbearing, number of scans), foot measurements and definitions used, and statistical analysis approaches. A 16-item checklist was developed to improve the consistency of reporting of future 3D scanning studies. Conclusion: 3D foot scanning methodological and statistical analysis protocol consistency and reporting has been lacking in the literature to date. Improved reporting of the included subcategories could assist in data pooling and facilitate collaboration between researchers. As a result, larger sample sizes and diversification of population groups could be obtained to vastly improve the quantification of foot shape and inform the development of orthotic and footwear interventions and products.

description: Background: Community pharmacists are highly accessible for advice, as most pharmacies are open long hours and no appointment is needed. Community pharmacists, as essential community health workers, play a critical role in the fight against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This study aimed to determine the general wellbeing and work impacts of pharmacists and the factors important for adaptability and resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: This study adopted a cross-sectional design. Community pharmacists from various professional networks in Australia were invited through emails and social media posts to complete an anonymous online survey during the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in Victoria, Australia. Results: Sixty-five community pharmacists completed the online survey. The respondents reported fair levels of general wellbeing during the COVID-19 pandemic, with a mean self-related health score of 33.57 (s.d. = 13.19) out of a maximal of 96, despite relatively high levels of job stress and emotional labour. Lower levels of general wellbeing were correlated with higher levels of job stress (r = 0.645, P < 0.01) and emotional labour (r = 0.513, P < 0.01), and lower levels of occupational self-efficacy (r = -0.566, P < 0.01). Leader member exchange was negatively correlated with job stress (r = -0.419, P < 0.01) and positively correlated with psychological safety (r = 0.693, P < 0.01). The linear regression models showed that female pharmacists had lower occupational self-efficacy (β = -0.286, P = 0.024), but higher psychological safety (β = 0.234, P = 0.042). Higher work ability was associated with lower job stress (β = -0.529, P < 0.001), higher occupational self-efficacy (β = 0.511, P = 0.001), and poorer self-related health (β = -0.659, P < 0.001). Conclusions: The findings highlight the importance of a supportive work environment in helping community pharmacists to feel psychologically safe and reduce stress during a crisis.

description: Countries are increasingly looking to ‘digitalise’ how public services are delivered, with welfare-to-work and public employment services being key sites of reform. It is hoped that digitalisation can achieve efficient, effective, and targeted services for those in need and there is now a growing body of research on both the opportunities and pitfalls associated with this transition to digital welfare states. However, as a concept, ‘digitalisation’ remains ambiguously defined, hindering understanding of the distinct ways that discrete technological innovations are reshaping citizens' access to social protection and the role of street-level discretion in welfare administration. Drawing on interviews with expert informants from three countries pioneering digital reforms, this study aims to better understand what digitalisation entails for the delivery of activation. We identify three discrete modes of ‘digitalisation’ in welfare-to-work programmes: virtual engagement (remote activation), transactional automation (self-activation), and digital triaging (targeted activation). Far from digitalisation heralding the automation and curtailment of frontline discretion, the different modes reshape frontline delivery and citizens' access to social protection in specific ways.

description: In this essay the published results of the 1896 Ontario survey into the moral standing of teachers and pupils are analyzed. The commentaries of school inspectors are used to make connections between morality and the formation of moral character. A distinction between abstract moral obligations and concrete moral customs provides a framework for understanding the moral activity under investigation. Remarks by inspectors indicate the manner in which the conception of morality was perceived and provide the essential content of the inquiry

Personal and Cultural Factors Interfering With the Effective Use of Individual and Group Learning Methods
Creators: name: Stahl, Abraham
Publisher: name: Journal of Educational Thought / Revue de la Pensée Educative
Year: 2018

description: In traditional teaching methods the teacher is at the center of attention; with new methods of individual and group instruction, an effort is being made to change this. The accepted ways of instruction are sequential in nature and conform to the linearity characteristic of Western culture; the new modes of teaching in effect discard the view that most people think and learn in a very systematic way. Classroom observation shows that in many cases teachers who have ostensibly adopted one of the new individual or group methods of instruction partly continue to employ the teaching methods they formerly used in whole-class teaching. It is contended that this is not just an unimportant relic of past behavior but a sign of serious personal and cultural problems the teachers encounter in modifying their ways of teaching. From the literature it does not appear that sufficient attention is being paid to these problems by the propagators of the new teaching methods. It remains to be investigated whether such basic changes are at all possible.

description: Public and private schools linked to various religious denominations are part of the Canadian scene. Throughout the years educators have often compared them and discussed their merits. We have taken part in these arguments more often from an administrative perspective than from a perspective dealing strictly with educational questions. In the context of the secular and pluralistic society, the urgent need to promote the development of the spiritual dimension of the person creates new situations and therefore new questions arise. Confronted with this new task, what are the roles of the two systems and how are they to be redefined in relationship to one another?

Mobilizing the CASS Framework for School System Success
Creators: name: Tymensen, Wilco
Publisher: name: Journal of Educational Thought / Revue de la Pensée Educative
Year: 2018

description: Educational research is increasingly focused on the role that leaders play in the improvement of teaching and learning. Although there is little disagreement concerning the belief that school jurisdiction leaders have an impact on the lives of school based leaders, teacher, and students, the nature and degree of impact continues to be debated. There is recognition that the interplay is complex and context sensitive. The intent of this paper is to explore the work the College of Alberta School Superintendents (CASS) is doing to building system leadership capacity within Alberta's political landscape of reform in order to facilitate mobilizing knowledge for the purpose of improving student learning. I begin with identifying the Alberta educational context that has led to the commencement of this work. Next, I explore the four dimensions of the CASS framework. The paper concludes with how CASS and system leaders can mobilize leadership knowledge and best practice to improve student learning.

The Inequity and Effect of Standardized Literacy Testing for First Nations Students: An Ontario (Canadian) Outlook
Creators: name: Ryan, Thomas G.
name: Whitman, Anthony
Publisher: name: Journal of Educational Thought / Revue de la Pensée Educative
Year: 2018

description: The authors illuminate the distinct issues of standardized literacy testing on First Nations (FN) such as the need for equity within Ontario, Canada with regard to the provincial Education Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO - test) and the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test (OSSLT), both criterion-referenced tests for students in Ontario. The authors address key areas such as historical background, test equity, literacy practices and the effect on FN students. A cursory overview of government and control via testing of First Nations was explored.

Toward an Anti-Capitalist Teacher Education
Creators: name: Casey, Zachary A.
Publisher: name: Journal of Educational Thought / Revue de la Pensée Educative
Year: 2018

description: This paper outlines the culpability of teacher education in perpetuating the neoliberal turn in education and addresses what must be done to reverse course and carve out a teacher education that is wholly committed to combating the disastrous effects of capitalist exploitation on both teachers and students. After an examination of neoliberal educational policy at both the national and global level, the author moves to teacher education to identify elements of teacher education that are currently supporting the neoliberal educational agenda. Finally, the author identifies a new vision and aim for teacher education that places a critique of capitalism at the center of teacher training as we work collectively to combat oppression, in all of its forms, and to ground the work of all teachers in an anti-oppressive (Kumashiro, 2009) pedagogy that includes anti-capitalism as a fundamental aim for all teachers and classrooms.

University Continuing Education: Shaping the Future
Creators: name: Campbell, Duncan D.
Publisher: name: Journal of Educational Thought / Revue de la Pensée Educative
Year: 2018

description: During the last three years, university systems in three Canadian provinces were the object of review, the vehicle in each case a Royal Commission. That these reviews were undertaken hints at a degree of anxiety in the mind of government and public, an attitude replacing the acceptance and support which characterized the previous decade. They suggest, moreover, the need for reassurance in the public mind of the efficiency and the effectiveness - of universities and of their relevance in a period characterized by basic shifts in society and thus of society's requirements. In general tone, they are remarkably similar. In a particular matter, they articulate an almost identical view: that higher education should be made more accessible, more flexible, and its outreach in public service more substantial.

Subjectivity and The University: A Paradox

Publisher: name: Journal of Educational Thought / Revue de la Pensée Educative

description: Modern American higher education is an outgrowth of the medieval universities. Over the centuries the governance, structure, curricula and quality of education at these institutions of higher learning has changed and shifted in line with the expectations and demands made upon it by students, Pope, governor and society. The modern American university may bear scant resemblance to its medieval counterpart, but its essential quality remains: it is an institution existing for "the transmission of knowledge, the pursuit of truth, the development of students and the general wellbeing of society.

The Trend Towards Multiversities: A Case of Incoherent Heterogeneity
Creators: name: Ditz, Gerhard W.
Publisher: name: Journal of Educational Thought / Revue de la Pensée Educative
Year: 2018

description: My proposition is that the present recession in Higher Education is significantly related to the trend towards "multiversities". By the latter I mean the assumption that each university should maximize its institutional capacity towards satisfying the widest range of goals, values and interests. Maximal institutional capacity and viability are assumed to be contingent on maximal structural heterogeneity. It seems that multiversities together with industrial conglomerates, department stores, ecumenical churches, political parties and other modern organizations fulfill the old dictum: the future lies with heterogeneity, and that makes for cohesiveness.

description: Aims: Alcohol consumption among teenagers in many high-income countries has steadily declined since the early 2000s. There has also been a steady increase in the average age at first drink, a reliable marker of later alcohol problems. This study measured whether young people who initiated drinking early were at increased risk of alcohol problems in young adulthood in recent cohorts where early initiation was comparatively rare. Design: Analysis of six waves of a repeated cross-sectional household survey (2001–16). Setting: Australia. Participants: A total of 9576 young adults (aged 20–25 years) who had initiated drinking before the age of 20 years. Measurements: Respondents were classified into three groups based on their self-reported age at first drink (< 16, 16–17, 18–19 years). Outcome variables were self-reported experiences of memory loss while drinking, risky and delinquent behaviour while drinking and monthly or more frequent drinking occasions of 11 or more 10-g standard drinks. Findings: Later initiators reported lower levels of all outcomes [e.g. odds ratios (ORs) for memory loss were 0.56, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.50, 0.63] for those who first drank at 16 or 17 years compared with those who first drank at age 15 or younger). Significant interactions between age at first drink and survey year showed that early initiation was more strongly associated with harms (e.g. for memory loss, OR = 0.97, 95% CI = 0.94, 0.99 for 18–19 versus 15 or younger) in young adulthood for recent cohorts where early drinking was less common. Conclusions: The decline in youth drinking may have contributed to a concentration of risk of alcohol problems among those young people who consume alcohol in early adolescence. Early initiation of drinking may be an increasingly important marker of broader risk taking as alcohol becomes less normative for teenagers.

Collaborative Inquiry and the Professional Development of Science Teachers
Creators: name: Erickson, Gaalen L.
Publisher: name: Journal of Educational Thought / Revue de la Pensée Educative
Year: 2018

description: In this article I argue that the nature and meaning of collaborative relationships are highly dependent upon the particular, practical settings in which they occur. To obtain a better understanding of a claim that a given project is collaborative, that claim must be examined in view of the specific purposes, processes, and relationships engendered by that project. To illustrate this argument I describe an on-going, science teacher development project and outline the fundamental postulates on which the project was based. Both a practical and a theoretical rationale are advanced to explain why a form of collaborative inquiry was essential to the project. A set of general principles linking the various types of collaborative relationships found in the project is identified and discussed.
