description: We investigate K*Λ(1116) photoproduction off the proton and neutron targets in the effective Lagrangian method in the tree-level Born approximation. In addition to the K, K*, and κ exchanges which are the main contributions to the reaction, we consider the contributions from the higher nucleon resonances D13(2080) and the D15(2200). We find that the D13(2080) plays a crucial role in explaining the enhancement of the near-threshold production rate, which results in a good agreement with the experimental data for the proton targets, while the contribution of the D15(2200) is rather small. A similar conclusion is drawn for K* photoproduction off the neutron targets. In addition to the energy and angular dependence of the cross sections, we present the predictions on the photon-beam asymmetry.

Volume and utilization patterns of nursing clinical placements
Creators: name: Burrows, Andrea Maxine
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Healthcare restructuring and projected workforce shortages have resulted in the expansion of nursing programs and subsequent increase in student enrolment. Increased enrolment has led to competition for student practice education experiences adding pressures on academic institutions to find and coordinate practice education and resulting in pressures on healthcare agencies to provide these experiences. Placing student in the appropriate clinical setting at the appropriate time in their education is a complex and challenging process. In British Columbia, nursing schools and healthcare agencies have used a Web-based tool, Health Services Placement network (HSPnet), to communicate about and track nursing student placements since 2003. The purpose of this retrospective longitudinal study was to examine nursing student clinical placement hours over six academic years, 2005-2006 (2005/06) and 2010-2011 (2010/11) (from August 15, 2005 to August 14, 2011) within a large health authority in British Columbia. Data were examined for differences across years, between nursing programs (BSN, LPN, RPN, international RN), between types of placements (group or preceptorship), and between types of clinical settings. In conclusion, the health authority hosted a large number of student clinical practice hours with significant growth over time. Future research should explore methods to support student clinical placements in diverse practice settings, methods to enhance academic and practice partnerships, and methods to enhance learning environments that will be beneficial to both staff and students.

description: In this paper, we aim at recovering an unknown signal x0 from noisy L1measurements y=Phi*x0+w, where Phi is an ill-conditioned or singular linear operator and w accounts for some noise. To regularize such an ill-posed inverse problem, we impose an analysis sparsity prior. More precisely, the recovery is cast as a convex optimization program where the objective is the sum of a quadratic data fidelity term and a regularization term formed of the L1-norm of the correlations between the sought after signal and atoms in a given (generally overcomplete) dictionary. The L1-sparsity analysis prior is weighted by a regularization parameter lambda>0. In this paper, we prove that any minimizers of this problem is a piecewise-affine function of the observations y and the regularization parameter lambda. As a byproduct, we exploit these properties to get an objectively guided choice of lambda. In particular, we develop an extension of the Generalized Stein Unbiased Risk Estimator (GSURE) and show that it is an unbiased and reliable estimator of an appropriately defined risk. The latter encompasses special cases such as the prediction risk, the projection risk and the estimation risk. We apply these risk estimators to the special case of L1-sparsity analysis regularization. We also discuss implementation issues and propose fast algorithms to solve the L1 analysis minimization problem and to compute the associated GSURE. We finally illustrate the applicability of our framework to parameter(s) selection on several imaging problems.

description: This research addresses the crucial concern that dominant cultural values, naturalized in curriculum and pedagogy, support experiences that reinforce a type of human being who has lost their way within an ecological web. Deep separations exist between humans and wider kinship relations which reinforces human-centric individualistic understandings of wellness. In outdoor education, this tradition often makes place-based ecologies a passive backdrop to human pursuits. This inquiry is committed to a deeper learning process—wayfinding—to enliven places as living curriculum and to attend to healthier, more ethical, relationships with what gives and sustains life. As a non-Indigenous, Canadian, researcher and educator coming into relationship with Indigenous wisdom teachings, wayfinding is framed by tenets of hermeneutic philosophy and nuanced by teachings of sacred ecology and being a good treaty relative. Kindled through visits with nêyihaw Elder, Bob Cardinal, holistic understandings come into dialogue with two curriculum-linked outdoor education programs, including three different trips. With 16 secondary school students, this inquiry involved eight-days canoeing in Killarney Provincial Park, seven-days backpacking in the Adirondack High Peaks, and 28-days sea kayaking along the coastline of Anticosti Island. Embodying the process alongside students, by way of humbly enacting teachings from Elder Cardinal, practices of narrative mapping, group conversations, observations and field notes, and interviews gathered understandings of how students perceive and interact with the more-than-human world. The immersion surfaced distinct yet layered pedagogical insights: understanding the problem of relationship denial, coming to recognize relations, experiencing the flow of kinship relationality, and sustaining good relations. This dissertation responds to the question: What is the curricular and pedagogical significance of wayfinding as an experience in outdoor education? By reflecting on the learning with students, and connecting it to wider curricular conversations, principles for wayfinding are offered to inspire renewed relations and to support more balanced ways of experiencing toward the continuation of life.
Considering the Implications and Mechanisms of Scale within Open Education

description: My dissertation is the culmination of a five-year critical investigation of the implications of scale within contemporary open education. My qualitative, critical, and tentative study is guided by the question: How do open educators perceive the mechanisms and implications of scale? It uses situational analysis theory-method package and a three-phase research process, including a qualitative online survey, collaborative map annotation, and focus groups. My study presents a multi-dimensional representation of open education’s complicated relationship with scale, both big and small. At a massive scale, open online course providers are increasingly delivering standardized content on data-gathering platforms built to control the learning experience to generate profit that bear no resemblance to these connectivist-inspired MOOCs imagined by open educators just over a decade ago. At the same time, open educators working at a much smaller scale are increasingly turning their attention towards emerging areas, including open educational practices and open policy. Using situational analysis social worlds/arena, relational, and positional mapmaking techniques, this study exposes the silences surrounding these apparently contradictory approaches to open education and elucidates a different approach to scale adopted by many open educators. It further finds that because open educators are often motivated by an intention to improve education, due to co-option, the games of scientific language and overwork, they are at risk of falling into the prescriptive patterns that they seek to transform. My study concludes that mitigating that risk will require open educators to articulate their tacit awareness of the holistic growth and prescriptive production mechanisms of scale and to clearly articulate their scale-related intentions. Moreover, it suggests that open educators seeking to re-pattern prescriptive production within educational systems must learn to embrace unpredictability and uncertainty as a means of minimizing educational disasters.
Continuum limits of granular systems
Creators: name: DeGiuli, Eric
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Despite a century of study, the macroscopic behaviour of quasistatic granular materials remains poorly understood. In particular, we lack a fundamental system of continuum equations, comparable to the Navier-Stokes equations for a Newtonian fluid. In this thesis, we derive continuum models for two-dimensional granular materials directly from the grain scale, using tools of discrete calculus, which we develop. To make this objective precise, we pose the canonical isostatic problem: a marginally stable granular material in the plane has 4 components of the stress tensor σ, but only 3 continuum equations in Newton’s laws ∇ ‧σ = 0 and σ = σT. At isostaticity, there is a missing stress-geometry equation, arising from Newton’s laws at the grain scale, which is not present in their conventional continuum form. We first show that a discrete potential ψ can be defined such that the stress tensor is written as σ = ∇ × ∇ × ψ, where the derivatives are given an exact meaning at the grain scale, and converge to their continuum counterpart in an appropriate limit. The introduction of ψ allows us to understand how force and torque balance couple neighbouring grains, and thus to understand where the stress-geometry equation is hidden. Using this formulation, we derive the missing stress-geometry equation ∆(F^ : ∇∇ψ) = 0, introducing a fabric tensor F^ which characterizes the geometry. We show that the equation imposes granularity in a literal sense, and that on a homo- geneous fabric, the equation reduces to a particular form of anisotropic elasticity. We then discuss the deformation of rigid granular materials, and derive the mean-field phase diagram for quasistatic flow. We find that isostatic states are fluid states, existing between solid and gaseous phases. The appearance of iso- staticity is linked to the saturation of steric exclusion and Coulomb inequalities. Finally, we present a model for the fluctuations of contact forces using tools of statistical mechanics. We find that force chains, the filamentary networks of con- tact forces ubiquitously observed in experiments, arise from an entropic instability which favours localization of contact forces.

description: A recently proposed statistical model for the effects of decoherence on electron transport manifests a decoherence-driven transition from quantum-coherent localized to ohmic behavior when applied to the one-dimensional Anderson model. Here we derive the resistivity in the ohmic case and show that the transition to localized behavior occurs when the coherence length surpasses a value which only depends on the second-order generalized Lyapunov exponent $ξ^{-1}$. We determine the exact value of $ξ^{-1}$ of an infinite system for arbitrary uncorrelated disorder and electron energy. Likewise all higher even-order generalized Lyapunov exponents can be calculated, as exemplified for fourth order. An approximation for the localization length (inverse standard Lyapunov exponent) is presented, by assuming a log-normal limiting distribution for the dimensionless conductance $T$. This approximation works well in the limit of weak disorder, with the exception of the band edges and the band center.

description: Through the use of print, sculpture, video and sound, my thesis installation, films and album create a stream of video and sound consciousness by listening or watching the dreams of Mexican immigrant women surveyed through a year-long dream hotline (888)573-2186. I question: Can the rendering of Mexican immigrant women's dreams through a media landscape give insight into the complexity of identity and land? In this project, I have remixed audio recordings of Mexican women immigrants (including myself) reciting their dreams with Mexican commercial logos, home footage and imagined soundscapes. The thesis artworks embody a spirit and aesthetic of rasquache and the resulting immersive video rasquache diary explores how our place of origin is stamped into our memories and present identity. The research is constructive, rendering many portraits of psyches from callers far away from home, and shows how media hastily pasted together can give us the texture of a memory or dream. Along with the use of radio, sound, video and sculpture installations, I used the images of fruit as a way to understand immigration's intertwined complexity in creating personal identity. Fruit, like people, must pass specific inspections and rules to be admitted into the US. Both are subject to labeling systems that have a complex hierarchy based on origin. Unlike fruit, humans can assimilate, thereby shifting their perspective, nearly erasing a memory that can only be visited in a dream. Inspired by the term Pocha, meaning rotting fruit but used as a slight towards assimilated Mexican Immigrants/ Citizens, I created a visual language for internal experiences of assimilation and immigration. The audio, video and print works simultaneously explore dreams and identity as landscapes through media as a psychodynamic tool. This written thesis archives dreams from the project as well as maps out the methodology and process of Dream Machine Archive through written text, poetry and a train ride outline.

description: Within the first 5 years of teaching, approximately 50% of teachers leave the profession entirely. The literature consistently identifies the experience of isolation and lack of support as primary drivers of novice teachers' decisions to leave the profession. The state of Michigan has consistently higher rates of overall teacher attrition than the national average, with some of the worst rates occurring in Detroit Public School and Community District (DPSCD) schools. To address the challenges of isolation and lack of support for novice teachers, the University of Michigan School of Education (UM SOE) and DPSCD have partnered to create a Teaching School, which includes a three-year residency program for novice teachers inspired by the medical model of physician education. This work explores how to learn from the medical training model to reduce novice teachers' experiences of isolation and lack of support. The project collaborators co-designed and developed a tool to be used in the new setting of the Teaching School to support the knowledge transfer from experienced teachers to novice teachers. Through participatory prototyping, we designed a tool that visualizes teachers' movement patterns and creates a snapshot for use as a reflection and training aid to build awareness of their practice in novice teachers. The participatory prototyping process demonstrated immediate short-term value and potential long-term value of using visualization to support the education of the novice teacher. In the short term, the prototype generated a record, facilitated conversation, and cultivated awareness. For long term value, the prototype visualizes patterns, creates comparisons, and builds a shared vocabulary. The potential future applications of this tool include additional iterations to test the tool's ability to surface teacher bias in the classroom.

description: Sources of Flavor Changed Neutral Currents (FCNC) naturally emerge from a well motivated framework called 3-3-1 with right-handed neutrinos model, $331_{RHN}$ for short, mediated by an extra neutral gauge boson $Z^{\prime}$. Following previous works we calculate these sources and in addition we derive new ones coming from CP-even and -odd neutral scalars which appear due to their non-diagonal interactions with the physical standard quarks. Furthermore we show that bounds related to the neutral mesons systems $K_L-K_S$ and $D_1^0 - D_2^0$ may be significantly strengthened in the presence of these new interactions allowing us to infer stronger constraints on the parameter space of the model.

description: Background: Despite the identification of autophagy-related protein 5 (ATG5) as a molecule involved in the activated autophagy machinery during hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and hepatocarcinogenesis, the consequences of ATG5 mutation carriage for patients with chronic HBV infection remain unclear. This study examined the association of ATG5 polymorphisms with HBV-related diseases including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Patients and Methods: Two functionally relevant polymorphisms ATG5 rs573775 and rs510432 were genotyped by ligase detection reaction-polymerase chain reaction in 403 patients with chronic HBV infection (171 chronic hepatitis, 119 cirrhosis and 113 HCC) and 196 healthy controls. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression was performed to evaluate factors associated with HCC. Results: The rs573775 genotype and allele frequencies had no significant differences between patients with different clinical diseases. However, HCC patients had significantly higher frequency of rs510432 genotype AA (odds ratio [OR] 2.185, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.042–4.581, P = 0.037, P value by Bonferroni correction [Pc] = 0.074) and allele A (OR 1.435, 95% CI 1.023–2.013, Pc = 0.036) than chronic hepatitis patients. In multivariate analyses, rs510432 allele A-containing genotypes (AA+GA) were independently associated with cirrhosis in comparison to chronic hepatitis (OR 1.927, 95%CI 1.011–3.017, P = 0.032). The rs510432 genotypes AA+GA were also independently associated with HCC in comparison to chronic hepatitis (OR 2.583, 95% CI 1.025–3.911, P = 0.006) or chronic HBV infection without HCC (OR 2.632, 95% CI 1.067–3.482, P = 0.032). Conclusion: These results indicate that rs510432 genotypes AA+GA are associated with disease progression and HCC risk in chronic HBV infection, providing novel evidence for a role of ATG5 in the pathogenesis of HBV-related HCC.

description: The "point mass singularity" inherent in Newton's law for gravitation represents a major difficulty in accurately determining the potential and forces inside continuous bodies. Here we report a simple and efficient analytical method to bypass the singular Green kernel 1/|r-r'| inside the source without altering the nature of the interaction. We build an equivalent kernel made up of a "cool kernel", which is fully regular (and contains the long-range -GM/r asymptotic behavior), and the gradient of a "hyperkernel", which is also regular. Compared to the initial kernel, these two components are easily integrated over the source volume using standard numerical techniques. The demonstration is presented for three-dimensional distributions in cylindrical coordinates, which are well-suited to describing rotating bodies (stars, discs, asteroids, etc.) as commonly found in the Universe. An example of implementation is given. The case of axial symmetry is treated in detail, and the accuracy is checked by considering an exact potential/surface density pair corresponding to a flat circular disc. This framework provides new tools to keep or even improve the physical realism of models and simulations of self-gravitating systems, and represents, for some of them, a conclusive alternative to softened gravity.

description: Serious play, the act of play pursued purposefully to achieve an identified objective, shows promise as a method for eliciting dilemmas faced by teachers in connection to social justice education. A process of participatory co-design in classrooms with high school teachers across Metro Detroit and in Alameda County, California, guided the development of a serious play toolkit, a set of loose parts which stimulate playful behaviors in teachers to communicate dilemmas, moral crossroads requiring the making of decisions, and pre-script responses to enable student access to social justice curricula. The parallel 'safe space' afforded by play allowed teachers to explore their attitudes and biases connected to social justice without real-world consequences, while the 'brave space' of a co-design workshop built on principles of asset-based design approaches and effective professional learning for teachers encouraged reflection on individual practice and modeling alternative actions to empower learning on race and privilege. Although the 2020 public health emergency prematurely halted research to further demonstrate the efficacy of the serious play toolkit, early prototypes saw teachers express dilemmas around race, identity and political affiliation. Follow-up interviews with participants suggest that serious play made teachers' behaviors during social justice instruction tangible, both in form and in feeling. Incorporating play into the design of interventions to address wicked problems is relevant to designers and educators seeking to expand access to social justice education, as well as to the broader problem space of instilling equity in public education in the United States.

description: We simulate the nonlocal Stokesian hydrodynamics of an elastic filament which is active due a permanent distribution of stresslets along its contour. A bending instability of an initially straight filament spontaneously breaks flow symmetry and leads to autonomous filament motion which, depending on conformational symmetry, can be translational or rotational. At high ratios of activity to elasticity, the linear instability develops into nonlinear fluctuating states with large amplitude deformations. The dynamics of these states can be qualitatively understood as a superposition of translational and rotational motion associated with filament conformational modes of opposite symmetry. Our results can be tested in molecular-motor filament mixtures, synthetic chains of autocatalytic particles, or other linearly connected systems where chemical energy is converted to mechanical energy in a fluid environment.

description: The food system in the US has supported growing dominance of industrial agriculture, corporate distribution chains, and other means by which power is exerted at the expense of environmental sustainability, citizen health and wealth inequality. The impacts have been most damaging to under-served and racialized communities. Online purchasing creates new opportunities--particularly in the context of the covid epidemic--but barriers may arise that are also along race and class divisions. This thesis examines an initial data set for two Black led collaborative Food System projects, two urban farms and a mobile farmers market initiative. All are primarily staffed by African American leadership, and serve a diverse set of community members with marginalized consumers being of the majority. I contrast the experiences in the shift to online sales for these groups with other online food networks for primarily white and middle class producer/consumer relations. While issues such as EBT and SNAP benefit payments constitute formal economic barriers, other challenges are better illuminated through the lens of the extraction of value: the loss of community connections and increased dependency on modes of production that do not return value to the community. I define 'generative production networks'' as those which maximize unalienated value return rather than value extraction. I utilize this framework to examine alternative online systems to overcome these barriers.

description: Today, Chinatown's role as a place of cultural heritage, belonging, and identity is at risk of being erased. Past and present residents in Washington, D.C.'s Chinatown experience increased alienation from their own neighborhood.. Through this design-based research project, Dear Chinatown, I connect the neighborhood's assets and cultural activities to inform place-keeping strategies in Washington, D.C.'s Chinatown. As capital, privatized interests, and speculative real estate development continues to shape neighborhoods across D.C., the design of participatory planning models led by governing agencies becomes critical. Through principles in place-based education (PBE), participatory action research (PAR) and research through design (RtD) methodologies, this investigation tested and evaluated an approach to public engagement that: 1) generates a proactive versus reactive process model; 2) forms new networks and collaborations and builds capacity; 3) generates a process that is adaptable and flexible; and 4) meets where people are already at and leverages existing assets and resources. The key findings and outcomes of the project revealed the value of new networks and collaborators and intergenerational convening, as well as both the need for improvements and reduction of obstacles in accessibility and data quality. Social groups within D.C. Chinatown's longtime community are diverse, dynamic, overlapping, and sometimes at conflict with one another. As such, a one-size-fits-all approach to engagement does not work. This project affirms that design for engagement has a role to play in cultivating people's complex ties to place.

description: Designers are increasingly using their unique skills and tools to find innovative solutions to the wicked social problems our day. Through design processes, we aim to make much-needed systemic changes by engaging the very communities that have experienced harm. While we want to make positive social change, but design education and continuing education must teach designers to address the social and emotional needs of design research participants and collaborators. The emerging conversation around trauma-informed design aims to give designers more tools to support a nonextractive approach to co-design in social impact settings. Social designers are already laying a strong foundation for trauma-informed de- sign practices as they inform other practitioners about how trauma impacts design work and how to become a more informed and inclusive designer. However, there are few case studies to reference when designers begin the process of becoming trauma-informed. Through collaborative work with Convergence Design Lab in Chicago, IL this work aims to fill this gap. During an eight-month process, I workede closely with these social designers to explore the use of new tools that combined strategies from design and social work. After three research phases that included observation, collaborative trauma-informed interviewing, and three design workshops, I observed the potential of trauma-informed approaches to de- sign practice. While this case study shows that trauma-informed design has strong potential to inform and improve upon the practices of social designers, it also displays the challenges of this multidisciplinary effort and offers recommendations for future work.

description: URu$_2$Si$_2$ is surely one of the most mysterious of the heavy-fermion compounds. Despite more than twenty years of experimental and theoretical works, the order parameter of the transition at $T_0 = 17.5$ K is still unknown. The state below $T_0$ remains called "hidden-order phase" and the stakes are still to identify the energy scales driving the system to this phase. We present new magnetoresistivity and magnetization measurements performed on very-high-quality single crystals in pulsed magnetic fields up to 60 T. We show that the transition to the hidden-order state in URu$_2$Si$_2$ is initially driven by a high-temperature crossover at around 40-50 K, which is a fingerprint of inter-site electronic correlations. In a magnetic field $\mathbf{H}$ applied along the easy-axis $\bf{c}$, the vanishing of this high-temperature scale precedes the polarization of the magnetic moments, as well as it drives the destabilization of the hidden-order phase. Strongly impurity-dependent magnetoresistivity confirms that the Fermi surface is reconstructed below $T_0$ and is strongly modified in a high magnetic field applied along $\mathbf{c}$, i.e. at a sufficiently-high magnetic polarization. The possibility of a sharp crossover in the hidden-order state controlled by a field-induced change of the Fermi surface is pointed out.

description: Some models of the 5/2 fractional quantum Hall state predict that the quasi-particles, which carry the charge, have non-Abelian statistics: exchange of two quasi-particles changes the wave function more dramatically than just the usual change of phase factor. Such non-Abelian statistics would make the system less sensitive to decoherence, making it a candidate for implementation of topological quantum computation. We measure quasi-particle tunneling as a function of temperature and DC bias between counter-propagating edge states. Fits to theory give e*, the quasi-particle effective charge, close to the expected value of e/4 and g, the strength of the interaction between quasi-particles, close to 3/8. Fits corresponding to the various proposed wave functions, along with qualitative features of the data, strongly favor the Abelian 331 state.

description: Traditional civic education is not taking advantage of design resources when preparing high school students, particularly Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) youth, in learning to see themselves as change agents ' individuals who believe that they have the ability to transform society. Civics curricula of secondary schools that cater to historically marginalized communities tend to be hindered by district requirements, a lack of access to resources like design tools and techniques, and time limitations. These constraints limit teachers, students, and their communities' access to civic knowledge and participation. In order to remedy this situation, this thesis developed, implemented, and evaluated a pilot zine-making workshop toolkit to elevate creativity and student voice around civics and provide accessible, low-cost resources that are easy for teachers to implement. This workshop toolkit, composed of guided activities and materials, serves as a supplementary resource to Equitable Futures, an existing project-based teaching and learning program for high school students in social studies to explore and understand the impact of social injustices in their local region and connect historical learnings to their own lived experiences. In collaboration with Equitable Futures, two high school teachers, and students from Arts Academy in the Woods and Fordson High School in Metro Detroit, this thesis deployed a cross-disciplinary, integrative design approach that combined design-based research (DBR) from the field of education with co-design from the field of design to inform the development of a collaborative teaching and learning intervention in a local high school civics classroom. As a result of the pilot workshop, it was found that zine-making, used as a design method for inquiry and low-cost execution, provides an accessible way to foster creative freedom, new ways of learning civics, and communicating social justice issues through social action, making, and self-authorship.

description: For an indecomposable module $M$ over a path algebra of a quiver of type $\widetilde{\mathbb A}_n$, the Gabriel-Roiter measure gives rise to four new numerical invariants; we call them the multiplicity, and the initial, periodic and final parts. We describe how these invariants for $M$ and for its dual specify the position of $M$ in the Auslander-Reiten quiver of the algebra.
