Experiencing learning differences : a sociocultural study of high school students' and parents' perspectives on learning disabilities
Creators: name: Av-Gay, Hadas
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2018

description: Based upon Vygotsky’s sociocultural theory, which emphasizes the interdependence between individuals and their sociocultural environments (Vygotsky, 1993; Wertsch, 1985), this generic qualitative study focused on the experiences of high school students with learning disabilities, as well as their perspectives and the perspectives of their parents on their experiences. The research questions guided this study were: 1) How do students describe their experiences of and perspectives on having learning disabilities? 2) How do parents describe their experiences of and perspectives on their child’s learning disabilities? 3) How do students describe their strengths and challenges in relation to their academic experiences in school? 4) How do parents describe their child’s strengths and challenges in relation to their academic experiences in school? Semi-structured and collaborative interviews with high school students and their parents, both separately and together were employed to answer the research questions. The transcribed interviews were analyzed using reflexive and iterative thematic analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006). Findings were coded and five themes were constructed: identifying difficulties in learning; “testing” to diagnose a disability; searching for alternative learning settings; learning and teaching; and students’ strengths and challenges. Five conclusions based on the lived experiences of these students emerged. First, there was no systemic early identification and pedagogy in place in their schools. Second, students reported experiencing secondary disabilities as a result of interpreting their primary learning difficulty as “being stupid.” Third, participants reported the affordances and constraints of, what they called, “testing” for diagnosis of learning disabilities. Formal diagnosis did not seem to inform teaching and learning and was limited to allowing the noticeability of students in school and entry to specialized programs or schools. Fourth, the profound sociality of learning was evident as participants benefited from collaborative relationships with their peers and teachers. Fifth, malleability of learning was shown in students’ academic successes in schools with parents’ provision of support. Educational implications included the importance of educating for diversity in learning, the importance of academic assessments integrated with pedagogy, distinguishing early screening and diagnosis, and systemizing early screening of students’ strengths and challenges.

description: In the bauxite-bearing area of Jajce (Bosnia & Herzegovina), exploitation of karst bauxite has occurred for more than 40 years, during which time extensive geological and mining research was also conducted. Here, the geological map of the Jajce bauxite bearing-area (Bosnia & Herzegovina) at a scale of 1:25.000 is presented, accompanied by a geological column and regional geological cross-sections. The map shows the main stratigraphic and tectonic features and positions of the bauxite deposits of the area. This research area covers 343 km2, divided into two structural units with four bauxite districts, Liskovica, Bešpelj, Crvene Stijene and Poljane. The Liskovica-Bešpelj structural unit is tectonically very complex, characterized by W-E trending structures in subvertical, vertical and overturned positions. The Crvene Stijene-Poljane structural unit is characterized by gentle folds and normal faults. The geological map summarizes all the available data and represents the necessary basis for further geological and mining research of the area.

description: We develop a semiclassical theory for spin-dependent quantum transport to describe weak (anti)localization in quantum dots with spin-orbit coupling. This allows us to distinguish different types of spin relaxation in systems with chaotic, regular, and diffusive orbital classical dynamics. We find, in particular, that for typical Rashba spin-orbit coupling strengths, integrable ballistic systems can exhibit weak localization, while corresponding chaotic systems show weak antilocalization. We further calculate the magnetoconductance and analyze how the weak antilocalization is suppressed with decreasing quantum dot size and increasing additional in-plane magnetic field.

description: On 25 October 1954, a storm hit the area surrounding the villages of Vietri sul Mare and Maiori of the Amalfi Coast (southern Italy) causing more than 300 deaths and severe damage to infrastructures and agriculture. This event has been among the most catastrophic historically documented in Campania Region. On this basis, and considering the lack of an existing complete characterization of the event in terms of triggered slope processes, we used multiple sets of stereoscopic aerial photos and a LiDAR-derived high-resolution topography to produce an event landslide inventory map. Our map provides an overview of the landslide distribution and extent in the area that mainly suffered the effect of the storm and is the basis for a morphometric characterization of landslide source areas that we present in this paper as simplified statistical analysis. In addition, we compared the rainfall distribution with the spatial density of source areas.
The use of geothermal energy in mining : a decision-making framework
Creators: name: Patsa, Eleni
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2018

description: This thesis aims to support the uptake of geothermal energy by the mining industry by developing a decision-making framework that when applied, will allow decision makers to quickly and inexpensively assess whether geothermal merits further consideration as a potential source of energy for a given mining project. The intent was to demonstrate that such an assessment could be made by non-experts, without having to resort to more complex, specialist analysis that is typically part of traditional geothermal exploration. To this end, a 3-step approach was adopted: a) identify, rank, and map indicators of worldwide geothermal potential; b) identify, rank, and map indicators of worldwide mineral potential; c) combine geothermal and mineral potential and map to identify areas of significant overlap. The calculation of geothermal potential necessitated the creation of a comprehensive listing of geothermal power plants, which were individually verified for location accuracy — associated maps of current geothermal production were also created for select areas of interest. Geothermal potential was represented by 5 indicators, namely volcanos, earthquakes, tectonic plate boundaries, heat flow, and thermal springs. Geo-indicator subtypes were ranked with respect to their proximity to active geothermal production, and were subsequently classified as either Primary or Secondary, and used to derive a rough estimate of geothermal potential, even in areas with no current geothermal production. An Analytic Hierarchy Process-based model used to calculate the relative geo-indicator importance weights was presented, and it can be extended to include additional indicators of geothermal potential to the ones used in this research with future releases of exploration data. A comprehensive map of mineral potential was also produced, using a combination of publicly-available and proprietary data, for a total of 148 distinct commodities. Mineral potential indicator importance weights were calculated based on a combination of attributes, including resource size, development stage, activity state, resource value, and commodity listing order. Those were subsequently ranked based on their proximity to geothermal potential, and used to produce worldwide maps of geomine potential.

description: This paper presents new bathymetric data acquired around Linosa Island, in the Pelagie Archipelago, revealing the submarine extension of the volcanic edifice, more wide and complex than previously known. The seafloor of Linosa, from the coastal area to about 1000 m depth, was mapped with multibeam systems during the ‘Linosa 2016’ and ‘BioGeoLin 2017’ surveys. A bathymetric map of the surveyed area (about 298 km2) was drawn at the original 1:30,000 scale. Overall, the submarine portions of Linosa extend on a total area of about 159 km2 and are preferentially developed in a NW-SE direction, in agreement with the regional main tectonic trend in the area. The new bathymetric data allow to recognize different sectors in the submarine extension of the volcanic edifice where constructional (volcanic) activity alternates with erosive-depositional processes affecting the submarine flanks of the island.

description: We analyze the emergence of Shapiro resonances in tunnel-coupled Bose-Einstein condensates, realizing a bosonic Josephson junction. Our analysis is based on an experimentally relevant implementation using magnetic double well potentials on an atomchip. In this configuration the potential bias (implementing the junction voltage) and the potential barrier (realizing the Josephson link) are intrinsically coupled. We show that the dynamically driven system exhibits significantly enhanced Shapiro resonances which will facilitate experimental observation. To describe the systems response to the dynamic drive we compare a single-mode Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) description, an improved two-mode (TM) model and the self-consistent multi-configurational time dependent Hartree for Bosons (MCTDHB) method. We show that in the case of significant atom-atom interactions or strong driving, the spatial dynamics of the involved modes have to be taken into account, and only the MCTDHB method allows reliable predictions.

description: The Inskip Peninsula is the link between two major coastal dune fields; Fraser Island (the world’s largest sand island) and the adjacent Cooloola Sand Mass. There has been a notable lack of research into the geomorphology of the sand masses and the relationship between the two dunefields. This paper presents a detailed geomorphological map of the Inskip Peninsula at a scale of 1:10,000. The Peninsula can be divided into three parts; an eastern section dominated by late Holocene strandlines and foredunes with an active spit at the northern limit of the peninsula; a central zone composed of broader foredune ridges and swales and an eastern zone comprised of remnants of older parabolic sand dunes and foredune remnants. The map provides a framework for ongoing work on landscape reconstruction.

description: High-spin states in the odd-odd nucleus $^{168}$Ta have been populated in the $^{120}$Sn($^{51}$V,3n) reaction. Two multi-quasiparticle structures have been extended significantly from spin $\sim{20\hbar}$ to above ${40\hbar}$. As a result, the first rotational alignment has been fully delineated and a second band crossing has been observed for the first time in this nucleus. Configurations for these strongly-coupled rotational bands are proposed based on signature splitting, $B(M1)/B(E2)$ ratio information, and observed rotation-alignment behavior. Properties of the observed bands in $^{168}$Ta are compared to related structures in the neighboring odd-$Z$, odd-$N$, and odd-odd nuclei and are discussed within the framework of the cranked shell model.

description: The article discusses the issues of optimizing the teaching of Russian literature to foreign audiences. The method of identifying crosscutting motifs, themes and similar genre structures in the works of several authors is considered (using the example of Pushkin, Lermontov and Gogol). This method makes it possible to organize and systematize the material being studied, to trace the general patterns of the development of literature, and also to identify the peculiarities of the creative style of each author. This allows you to present information in a concentrated form and indicate the key points of the literary process.

description: We report the detection of a magnetic field on the Of?p star HD108. Spectropolarimetric observations conducted in 2007, 2008 and 2009 respectively with NARVAL@TBL and ESPaDOnS@CFHT reveal a clear Zeeman signature in the average Stokes V profile, stable on timescales of days to months and slowly increasing in amplitude on timescales of years. We speculate that this timescale is the same as that on which Ha emission is varying and is equal to the rotation period of the star. The corresponding longitudinal magnetic field, measured during each of the three seasons, increases slowly from 100 to 150G, implying that the polar strength of the putatively-dipolar large-scale magnetic field of HD108 is at least 0.5kG and most likely of the order of 1-2 kG. The stellar and wind properties are derived through a quantitative spectroscopic analysis with the code CMFGEN. The effective temperature is difficult to constrain because of the unusually strong HeI4471 and HeI5876 lines. Values in the range 33000-37000 K are preferred. A mass loss rate of about 1e-7 Msun/yr (with a clumping factor f=0.01) and a wind terminal velocity of 2000 km/s are derived. The wind confinement parameter eta_star is larger than 100, implying that the wind of HD108 is magnetically confined. Stochastic short-term variability is observed in the wind-sensitive lines but not in the photospheric lines, excluding the presence of pulsations. Material infall in the confined wind is the most likely origin for lines formed in the inner wind. Wind-clumping also probably causes part of the Ha variability. The projected rotational velocity of HD108 is lower than 50 km/s, consistent with the spectroscopic and photometric variation timescales of a few decades. Overall, HD108 is very similar to the magnetic O star HD191612 except for an even slower rotation.

description: Attosecond streaking of atomic photoemission holds the promise to provide unprecedented information on the release time of the photoelectron. We show that attosecond streaking phase shifts indeed contain timing (or spectral phase) information associated with the Eisenbud-Wigner-Smith time delay matrix of quantum scattering. However, this is only accessible if the influence of the streaking infrared (IR) field on the emission process is properly accounted for. The IR probe field can strongly modify the observed streaking phase shift. We show that the part of the phase shift ("time shift") due to the interaction between the outgoing electron and the combined Coulomb and IR laser fields can be described classically. By contrast, the strong initial-state dependence of the streaking phase shift is only revealed through the solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation in its full dimensionality. We find a time delay between the hydrogenic 2s and 2p initial states in He+ exceeding 20as for a wide range of IR intensities and XUV energies.

description: This work presents the morphotectonic map of the Tasso Stream-Sagittario River valley, located in the Central Abruzzo area (Marsica region), in one of the areas of highest average elevation in the Apennines chain between two main intermontane basins (i.e. the Sulmona basin and Fucino basin). It is bounded by one of the main drainage divides of Central Italy, separating the Adriatic side of the Apennines from the large endorheic Fucino area. The morphotectonic map of the Sagittario River valley is the result of an geomorphological analysis of the drainage at the basin scale in Central Italy and incorporates three main sections: orography and hydrography (upper right on the map), the main morphotectonic map (center and left on the map), and the morphotectonic profile section (lower on the map). This map provides a basis for the recognition of morphotectonic features at the basin scale, the detection of tectonic vs. surface processes’ control on the landscape, and the reconstruction of the landscape evolution of the Sagittario gorges, one of the main gorges incising the carbonate ridges of the Apennines. It contributes to defining the main phases of the Quaternary landscape evolution of the inner mountain landscape of the Apennines, resulting from the combination of alternating morphotectonics (i.e. rock uplift and local tectonics) and surface processes (i.e. slope, karst, glacial and fluvial processes).
Regulation of monoallelic exclusion in trypanosoma brucei

Publisher: name: Imperial College London

description: Nuclear bodies play a crucial role in the compartmentalisation and regulation of gene expression. However, the importance of nuclear bodies in controlling gene expression in more diverse organisms is still largely unexplored. The early branching eukaryote Trypanosoma brucei has long been known to regulate expression of its Variant Surface Glycoprotein (VSG) genes using a unique nuclear body called the Expression Site Body (ESB). The ESB has been defined as an extra-nucleolar structure enriched in RNA polymerase I which is essential for high levels of VSG expression. Importantly, a single VSG gene is expressed at a time inside the ESB in a monoallelic manner from one of 15 VSG Expression Sites (ESs). How the ESB mechanistically controls VSG expression and monoallelic exclusion is not fully understood. Here, I present the microscopic and functional analysis of the properties of nuclear bodies in T. brucei with a focus on the ESB. Using a “double expresser” T. brucei strain with two simultaneously active VSG-ESs, I show using DNA and RNA-FISH that these ESs dynamically share a single ESB. Unexpectedly, these two active ESs can only be simultaneously transcribed when located within this single ESB. Furthermore, double expresser cells are unable to stably produce more than one ESB, indicating that the ESB is a key limiting component in coordinating monoallelic exclusion. In order to further understand the molecular components inside the ESB, the TrypTag database was mined to find potential nuclear body proteins. In doing so, I have discovered proteins located in three nuclear bodies; a NUFIP body, a Cajal body and a Spliced Leader Array Body (SLAB) that associate with the active ES in bloodstream form cells forming a “super-hub” for VSG expression. These separate nuclear bodies appear to be involved in the production of splicing components. Interestingly, I find that splicing is essential for transcription elongation at the active ES. These results suggest a model in which extraordinarily high levels of VSG mRNA production are facilitated by the association of a conglomerate of nuclear bodies with the active ES. The sequestration of these multiple nuclear bodies to the active ES may also serve as a mechanism to prevent their interaction and subsequent activation of silent ESs, thus facilitating monoallelic exclusion.

description: We study integrable geodesic flows on Stiefel varieties $V_{n,r}=SO(n)/SO(n-r)$ given by the Euclidean, normal (standard), Manakov-type, and Einstein metrics. We also consider natural generalizations of the Neumann systems on $V_{n,r}$ with the above metrics and proves their integrability in the non-commutative sense by presenting compatible Poisson brackets on $(T^*V_{n,r})/SO(r)$. Various reductions of the latter systems are described, in particular, the generalized Neumann system on an oriented Grassmannian $G_{n,r}$ and on a sphere $S^{n-1}$ in presence of Yang-Mills fields or a magnetic monopole field. Apart from the known Lax pair for generalized Neumann systems, an alternative (dual) Lax pair is presented, which enables one to formulate a generalization of the Chasles theorem relating the trajectories of the systems and common linear spaces tangent to confocal quadrics. Additionally, several extensions are considered: the generalized Neumann system on the complex Stiefel variety $W_{n,r}=U(n)/U(n-r)$, the matrix analogs of the double and coupled Neumann systems.

description: Salpeter equations with potential functions rising to infinity in configuration space do not automatically predict stable bound states. For this to happen, also the Lorentz behaviour of the involved Bethe-Salpeter kernels is crucial. At least for interaction potentials of harmonic-oscillator form analytic scrutinies of Salpeter equations with confining interactions may identify those Bethe-Salpeter kernels which describe bound states free from the notorious instabilities encountered in numerical evaluations. Such truly confining kernels can be singled out systematically by requesting the resulting bound-state energy spectra to be both real and discrete.

description: Non-Abelian holonomies can be generated and detected in certain superconducting nanocircuits.

description: Recent experimental progress with Alkaline-Earth atoms has opened the door to quantum computing schemes in which qubits are encoded in long-lived nuclear spin states, and the metastable electronic states of these species are used for manipulation and readout of the qubits. Here we discuss a variant of these schemes, in which gate operations are performed in nuclear-spin-dependent optical lattices, formed by near-resonant coupling to the metastable excited state. This provides an alternative to a previous scheme [A. J. Daley, M. M. Boyd, J. Ye, and P. Zoller, Phys. Rev. Lett 101, 170504 (2008)], which involved independent lattices for different electronic states. As in the previous case, we show how existing ideas for quantum computing with Alkali atoms such as entanglement via controlled collisions can be freed from important technical restrictions. We also provide additional details on the use of collisional losses from metastable states to perform gate operations via a lossy blockade mechanism.

description: We show that the interplay between spin-changing collisions and quadratic Zeeman coupling provides a novel mechanism for the formation of repulsively bound composites in high-spin fermions, which we illustrate by considering spin flips in an initially polarized hard-core 1D Mott insulator of spin-3/2 fermions. We show that after the flips the dynamics is characterized by the creation of two types of exciton-biexciton composites. We analyze the conditions for the existence of these bound states, and discuss their intriguing properties. In particular we show that the effective mass and stability of the composites depends non-trivially on spin-changing collisions, on the quadratic Zeeman effect and on the initial exciton localization. Finally, we show that the composites may remain stable against inelastic collisions, opening the possibility of novel quantum composite phases.

Investigating the regulatory mechanisms of cuticular wax biosynthesis in Arabidopsis thaliana
Creators: name: Liu, Shuang
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: As an integral part of plant cuticle, cuticular wax covers the primary aerial organs of plants and provides protection against desiccation and environmental stresses. It has been shown that cuticular wax biosynthesis is synchronized with the surface area expansion during plant development and is associated with plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. As the plant-environment interface, cuticular wax deposition is tightly regulated. The major goal of my Ph.D. study was to investigate the regulatory mechanisms that control cuticular wax accumulation during development and/or in response to environmental cues by identifying and characterizing factors that are involved in this process. In this thesis, I investigated two types of regulation of wax accumulation. Firstly, studies of the RING-type E3 ligase U37 demonstrated that U37-mediated ubiquitination is involved in the regulation of wax biosynthesis (Chapter 3). U37 ubiquitinates wax biosynthetic enzyme ECERIFERUM1 (CER1), and possibly also ECERIFERUM3 (CER3), and targets them for degradation via the 26S proteasome. Based on the U37 expression profile, I proposed that U37 might have a major function in turning off wax biosynthesis in fully developed leaves. Secondly, the identification and partial characterization of novel transcription factors that bind to the CER3 promoter revealed that CER3 is an important regulatory determinant in transcriptional regulation of cuticular wax biosynthesis (Chapter 4). Four transcription factors, MYB30, WIP5, AHL29 and AHL23, have been identified that likely control cuticular wax deposition by regulating CER3 gene expression.

description: The present work aims to study the effect of ion irradiation on structural and electrical properties and their correlation with the defects in Zn1-xMnxO type system. Zn1-xMnxO (x = 0.02, 0.04) samples have been synthesized by solid-state reaction method and have been irradiated with 50 MeV Li3+ ions. The concomitant changes have been probed by x-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature dependent electrical resistivity and positron annihilation lifetime (PAL) spectroscopy. XRD result shows single phase wurtzite structure for Zn0.98Mn0.02O, whereas for Zn0.96Mn0.04O sample an impurity phase has been found apart from the usual peaks of ZnO. Ion irradiation dissolves this impurity peak. Grain size of the samples found to be uniform. For Zn0.98Mn0.02O, the observed sharp decrease in room temperature resistivity (RhoRT) with irradiation is consistent with the lowering of FWHM of the XRD peaks. However for Zn0.96Mn0.04O, RhoRT decreases for initial fluence but increases for further increase of fluence. All the irradiated Zn0.98Mn0.02O samples show metal-semiconductor transition in temperature dependent resistivity measurement at low temperature. But all the irradiated Zn0.96Mn0.04O samples show semiconducting nature in the whole range of temperature. Results of room temperature resistivity, XRD and PAL measurements are consistent with each other.

description: Cu/Co/Cu trilayers have been deposited on nanoporous alumina membranes. Magnetic properties of the resulting Co antidot arrays are investigated using SQUID magnetometry. Hysteresis loops of these arrays show two-step magnetization reversal. In addition, exchange bias is observed, whether the cooling field is applied within or perpendicular to the surface plane. In the former case, the exchange bias changes sign close to the blocking temperature, and becomes positive. We attribute these effects to the local, crescent shape of the Co films, induced by the surface morphology of the alumina membranes. This morphology leads to a three-dimensional magnetization distribution at the nanoscale.

description: The present paper describes a procedure for mapping the distribution of Natura 2000 terrestrial habitats (Habitats Directive 92/43/EEC) at the regional scale (Lombardy, Northern Italy) by means of open-source software (QGIS and R). The habitat map within Natura 2000 sites was used for modelling the regional distribution of three selected habitats, by applying classification trees on freely available and fine-scale resolution environmental layers. Land use and forest type maps were combined to refine the regional distribution of selected habitats. The statistical validation showed a fairly substantial overall accuracy of predicted habitat distribution, which was used to determine the regional extent of the habitats and to evaluate the regional effectiveness of Natura 2000 network. We provide an easy and inexpensive procedure, replicable in other contexts in which just basic information on Natura 2000 terrestrial habitats are available, and usable for habitats monitoring according to the Habitats Directive.
Fv1 restriction properties beyond the murine leukemia virus
Creators: name: Fernández Calvo, Paloma
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2020

description: Restriction factors are cellular proteins that constitute one of the defence mechanisms developed by the host to fight viral infections. Friend virus susceptibility-1 (Fv1) is the prototypic restriction factor known for blocking murine leukemia virus (MLV) replication by targeting the viral capsid protein. This gene was found to be highly polymorphic between murine species as well as being under strong positive selection and having different restriction specificities. The origin of Fv1 remains unclear, however, its acquisition is known to have happened before the emergence of MLVs. It is, therefore, reasonable to speculate that non-MLV retroviruses have been involved in shaping Fv1 evolution. The aim of this PhD project was to further understand how Fv1 evolves and interacts with retroviruses. A number of retroviruses from different genera were tested against a panel of Fv1s from different wild mice. Novel restriction activities were found for the gammaretroviruses Gibbon Ape Leukemia Virus and Feline Leukemia Virus as well as for two newly discovered endogenous retroviruses. More interestingly, the alpharetrovirus Rous Sarcoma Virus and the betaretrovirus Mouse Mammary Tumour Virus could be restricted by two Fv1s. These Fv1s showed no sign of gammaretrovirus restriction. Mapping studies pointed to the Fv1 C-terminal domain variable regions VA and VD as the interacting domains involved in these new specificities. Fine mapping revealed that single residue determinants were different for each virus. It was also shown that loss of activity is possible with very limited changes. To investigate the stage of the life cycle blocked for these viruses, qPCR assays were performed in Fv1 transduced cells to detect late reverse transcription and nuclear entry. The results confirmed that infection is blocked at the post-entry level after reverse transcription and before integration, as previously observed with MLV. Taken together with previous published data, these findings support the hypothesis that Fv1 is a very plastic system and that it might have evolved in response to non-gamma retroviruses from different genera that would have predated MLVs.
Distributed Throughput-optimal Scheduling in Ad Hoc Wireless Networks

Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Information Theory (cs.IT)

description: In this paper, we propose a distributed throughput-optimal ad hoc wireless network scheduling algorithm, which is motivated by the celebrated simplex algorithm for solving linear programming (LP) problems. The scheduler stores a sparse set of basic schedules, and chooses the max-weight basic schedule for transmission in each time slot. At the same time, the scheduler tries to update the set of basic schedules by searching for a new basic schedule in a throughput increasing direction. We show that both of the above procedures can be achieved in a distributed manner. Specifically, we propose an average consensus based link contending algorithm to implement the distributed max weight scheduling. Further, we show that the basic schedule update can be implemented using CSMA mechanisms, which is similar to the one proposed by Jiang et al. Compared to the optimal distributed scheduler in Jiang's paper, where schedules change in a random walk fashion, our algorithm has a better delay performance by achieving faster schedule transitions in the steady state. The performance of the algorithm is finally confirmed by simulation results.

description: With the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases peaking and health systems reaching their limits in winter 2020/21, schools remained closed in many countries. To better understand teachers' risk perception, we conducted a survey in Germany. Participants were recruited through various associations and invited to take part in a cross-sectional COVID-19-specific online survey. Descriptive statistical analysis was performed. Factors associated with teachers' fears of contracting the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2) were evaluated with an adjusted multivariable regression analysis. The median age of the 6753 participating teachers was 43 years, and 77% were female. Most teachers worked in high schools (29%) and elementary schools (26%). The majority of participants (73%) feared contracting SARS-CoV-2 at school, while 77% intended to receive their COVID-19 vaccination. Ninety-eight percent considered students to pose the greatest risk. Female and younger teachers were significantly more anxious to get infected and teachers who opposed the re-opening of schools had significantly higher odds of being more anxious (p < 0.001). To the authors' knowledge, this is the first study to describe teachers' risk perception of COVID-19 and their attitudes towards vaccinations in a nationwide survey. The anxiety correlates with the COVID-19 protection measures demanded and appears to be a driving factor rather than rational logic.
