SEL for BC teachers: integrating SEL, digital technologies and the BC curriculum
Creators: name: Crema, Stefanie D.
Publisher: name: Vancouver Island University - Royal Roads University
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Blended learning

description: Significant changes are occurring in society and with that comes inevitable change in the education system. These changes are centred around technological innovation and have altered the way in which we communicate with one another. The new BC Curriculum along with the BC Education Plan outline initiatives for students to utilize technology to empower their learning. Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) is also becoming part of the change we are witnessing with the implementation of the new curriculum. The introduction of Core Competencies has altered the way educators approach their practice. This paper addresses the question; ‘How can BC elementary school teachers integrate SEL strategies using the Personal and Social Core Competencies by engaging technology-based resources to support student success?’ A website, SEL for BC Teachers, was developed as a result. The website hosts a repository for digital tools (apps/games/online programs) that relate directly to the Personal and Social Core Competencies of the new BC Curriculum. It was intended to be a comprehensive resource for elementary school teachers seeking to teach SEL through the use of technology. The website hosts additional information relating to SEL, technology and the BC Curriculum. It was sent to a broad base of educators for review. The results of beta testing were very positive in nature demonstrating an increasing interest in the field of SEL and a demand for resources relating to the BC Curriculum. Collaboration and sharing of SEL and technology-based tools amongst educators in BC should be a consideration for further growth and development of SEL for BC Teachers.

description: High-energy cosmic rays impinging onto the atmosphere of the Earth initiate extensive air showers. With the LOFAR radio telescope and the Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) at the Pierre Auger Observatory radio emission from air showers is detected. Recent results are presented from both experiments. The measured properties of the radio emission are described. The measurements are used to derive the properties of high-energy cosmic rays: their arrival direction, energy, and particle type (mass).

description: We study the abundances of α elements, Fe-peak elements, and neutron-capture elements in Pal 1. We found that the abundances of the SNe Ia and main s-process components of Pal 1 are larger than those of the disk stars and the abundances of the primary component of Pal 1 are smaller than those of the disk stars with similar metallicity. The Fe abundances of Pal 1 and the disk stars mainly originate from the SNe Ia and the primary component, respectively. Although the α abundances dominantly produced by the primary process for the disk stars and Pal 1, the contributions of the primary component to Pal 1 are smaller than the corresponding contributions to the disk stars. The Fe-peak elements V and Co mainly originate from the primary and secondary components for the disk stars and Pal 1, but the contributions of the massive stars to Pal 1 are lower than those of the massive stars to the disk stars. The Yabundances mainly originate from the weak r-component for the disk stars. However, the contributions of the main s-components and main r-components to Y are close to those of the weak r-component for Pal 1. The Ba abundances of Pal 1 and the disk stars mainly originate from the main s-component and the main r-component, respectively. Our calculated results imply that the unusual abundances of Pal could be explained by the top-light IMF for Pal 1 progenitor-system.

description: This is a scoping review to be carried out according to the recommendations of the Joanna Briggs Institute and the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Review checklist and aims to analyze the evidence on the quality of pain indicators used in postoperative pain management. Studies with samples of surgical patients with postoperative pain, which assess quality indicators, be they of structure, process, or result, and which have been carried out in a hospital context will be included. This scoping review will consider experimental and quasi-experimental study designs, observational studies (cohort, case-control, and cross-sectional). It will also consider series and case reports, in addition to clinical practice protocols and guidelines, as well as literature reviews, theses, and text and opinion articles. The search will be carried out in three stages. A limited initial search will be carried out on MEDLINE (PubMed) and CINAHL, followed by the analysis of the words of the text contained in the title and abstract, and the index terms used to describe the article. Then, a complete secondary search will be performed on all included databases, using the keywords and index terms identified in the initial limited search. A tertiary literature search examining reference lists that meet the inclusion criteria for this review. The studies will be selected according to the eligibility criteria, first from the title and abstract. Then those who meet the inclusion criteria will be read in full. The extracted data will be presented in tables and diagrams. The results obtained in the review will be presented at scientific events and published in the form of an article.
Charter Schools: Policy and Practice
Creators: name: Post, Kristin Sara
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2006

description: Charter schools have been promoted as being more innovative than traditional public schools, but that is not always the case. Change agents can transform either type of public school. Both types of schools can also rely on traditional practices, which are not as innovative as they are reliable. This research focuses on a charter school and a neighboring district school that were transformed by change agent leadership. The results indicate that neither school is radically innovative, but both are employing “effective schools” research into their structure, leadership, and curriculum. Furthermore, the research explores change agent teachers, and their perspective on curriculum and school governance. This research seeks to suggest that educational innovation is temporal, and reforms are modified by what is sustainable over the long term.

description: Using femtosecond time-resolved resonant magnetic x-ray diffraction at the Ho L3 absorption edge, we investigate the demagnetization dynamics in antiferromagnetically ordered metallic Ho after femtosecond optical excitation. Tuning the x-ray energy to the electric dipole (E1, 2p -> 5d) or quadrupole (E2, 2p -> 4f) transition allows us to selectively and independently study the spin dynamics of the itinerant 5d and localized 4f electronic subsystems via the suppression of the magnetic (2 1 3-tau ) satellite peak. We find demagnetization timescales very similar to ferromagnetic 4f systems, suggesting that the loss of magnetic order occurs via a similar spin-flip process in both cases. The simultaneous demagnetization of both subsystems demonstrates strong intra-atomic 4f-5d exchange coupling. In addition, an ultrafast lattice contraction due to the release of magnetostriction leads to a transient shift of the magnetic satellite peak.

description: A search for an invisibly decaying Higgs boson or dark matter candidates produced in association with a leptonically decaying $Z$ boson in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV is presented. This search uses 36.1 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. No significant deviation from the background expectation is observed. Assuming the Standard Model $ZH$ production cross-section, an observed (expected) upper limit of 67% (39%) at the 95% confidence level is set on the branching ratio of invisible decays of the Higgs boson with mass $m_H = $ 125 GeV. The corresponding limits on the production cross-section of the $ZH$ process with the invisible Higgs boson decays are also presented. Furthermore, exclusion limits on the dark matter candidate and mediator masses are reported in the framework of simplified dark matter models.

description: This paper explores the intersection of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) fairness and mobile human-computer interaction (MobileHCI). Through a comprehensive analysis of MobileHCI proceedings published between 2017 and 2022, we first aim to understand the current state of algorithmic fairness in the community. By manually analyzing 90 papers, we found that only a small portion (5%) thereof adheres to modern fairness reporting, such as analyses conditioned on demographic breakdowns. At the same time, the overwhelming majority draws its findings from highly-educated, employed, and Western populations. We situate these findings within recent efforts to capture the current state of algorithmic fairness in mobile and wearable computing, and envision that our results will serve as an open invitation to the design and development of fairer ubiquitous technologies.

Quasi-bound Electron Pairs in Two-Dimensional Materials with a Mexican-Hat Dispersion

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study quasi-bound states of two electrons that arise in two-dimensional materials with a Mexican-hat dispersion (MHD) at an energy above its central maximum. The width of the resonance of the local density of states created by pairs is determined by the hybridization of atomic orbitals, due to which the MHD is formed. The mechanism of the quasi-bound state formation is due to the fact that effective reduced mass of electrons near the MHD top is negative. An unusual feature of quasi-bound states is that the resonance width can vanish and then they transform into bound states in continuum. We study in detail the quasi-bound states for topological insulators, when the MHD is due to the hybridization of inverted electron and hole bands. In this case, the resonance width is extremely small at weak hybridization. The highest binding energy is achieved for singlet quasi-bound pairs with zero angular number.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Drying induced cracking of concrete surfaces and repair layers is a common problem. A principal cause for this type of cracking is the moisture and resulting contraction gradient that develops in the cement paste matrix upon drying. This phenomenon has been experimentally quantified in unconfined hardened cement paste samples using a fluorescent resin impregnation technique. The effects of sample thickness and drying method on surface crack density and crack penetration depth are reported and explained. Finite element modelling of moisture gradients indicate the important role of the film coefficient in desiccation cracking of unconfined samples. The critical thickness for samples to remain crack-free upon drying was in the range of 2-5 mm depending on drying method. In thicker samples a crack spacing doubling process was observed that is in agreement with theoretical predictions.
WUHAO: THE FIVE GOODS MOVEMENT AND EVOLVING FORMS OF STATE GOVERNANCE OVER DOMESTIC SPACE AND FAMILY LIFE IN THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF CHINA, 1956-1958
Creators: name: Santacaterina, Donald
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: This study uses the People’s Daily newspaper as a source to investigate the “Five Goods Movement” (五好活动wuhao huodong), a campaign carried out in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) from 1956-1958. The Five Goods movement sought to regulate productive socialist families by celebrating a positive “Five Goods housewife” while denigrating a negative, shrewish housewife who threatened domestic harmony. The Chinese state propagated these two models in the People’s Daily newspaper to assert an ideological power over domestic space in tandem with the more physical presence of neighborhood “mutual aid teams” which were employed to surveil, comment on, commend, and criticize mothers and wives on their ability (or inability) to maintain a harmonious domestic space in line with movement’s values. The movement illustrates a case of state negotiation over its position as a legitimate actor in domestic space and Chinese family life.

description: A novel two-leaflet description of lipid membranes is proposed. Within its framework, phase separation phenomena in multicomponent biological membranes are analyzed. As we show, interactions between the leaflets tend to suppress macroscopic phase segregation (i.e., complete demixing of lipids) in such systems. Instead, microphase separation characterized by formation of equilibrium nanoscale domains can take place. The phase diagram is constructed and numerical simulations revealing nanostructures of different morphology are performed.

description: Zusammenhänge zwischen Opferwerden und eigener Täterschaft, zwischen Opferfurcht und Signalen von Unsicherheit werden seit geraumer Zeit kriminologisch intensiv diskutiert. In der vorliegenden Studie wird versucht, diese Themen für den Bereich der Gewalt in der Schule und Freizeit umzusetzen. Jugendliche haben, wie viele Studien aus jüngerer Zeit gezeigt haben, zunehmend Angst, Opfer von Gewalt zu werden – und dies auch in der Schule und (wie wir zeigen sogar vor allem) auf dem Schulweg. Wie diese Angst ausgeprägt ist, wie unterschiedlich sie verbreitet ist und welche Konsequenzen sich daraus ergeben, wurde hier ebenso thematisiert wie das Gewaltausmaß, mit dem Schüler belastet sind. Die Studie zeigt, dass Gewalterfahrung, sei es als Täter, Opfer oder Zeuge, zum Alltag von Jugendlichen in Schule und Freizeit gehört. Umso wichtiger erscheint es, über Präventionsmöglichkeiten nachzudenken und diese auch im schulischen Alltag umzusetzen. Der Band stellt die Ergebnisse der Befragung von rund 4.000 Schülern zu ihren Erfahrungen mit Gewalt in der Schule, auf dem Schulweg und in der Freizeit dar. Gleichzeitig wurde die Wirksamkeit eines Gewaltpräventionsprogrammes der Bochumer Polizei überprüft. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Schulzugehörigkeit, das Geschlecht sowie der Migrationshintergrund eine wichtige Rolle bei der Viktimisierung und beim Täterwerden spielen. Die Studie zeigt, dass Gewalterfahrung zum Alltag von Jugendlichen in Schule und Freizeit gehört.

description: The results of our speckle interferometric observations of young binaries VY Tau and XZ Tau are presented. For the first time, we found a relative displacement of VY Tau components as well as a preliminary orbit for XZ Tau. It appeared that the orbit is appreciably non-circular and is inclined by $i \lesssim 47^o$ from the plane of the sky. It means that the rotation axis of XZ Tau A and the axis of its jet are significantly non-perpendicular to the orbital plane. We found that the average brightness of XZ Tau had been increasing from the beginning of the last century up to the mid-thirties and then it decreased by $ΔB > 2$ mag. The maximal brightness has been reached significantly later on the time of periastron passage. The total brightness of XZ Tau's components varied in a non-regular way from 1970 to 1985 when eruptions of hot gas from XZ Tau A presumably had occurred. In the early nineties the variations became regular following which a chaotic variability had renewed. We also report that a flare activity of VY Tau has resumed after 40 yr pause, parameters of the previous and new flares are similar, and the flares are related with the A component.

title: Communicative digital practices of Algerians on Facebook
Creators: name: Abdelhamid, Firdous
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2021

description: This study examines the way young Algerians employ linguistic and other semiotic resources at their disposal to communicate meaning on the social network site Facebook. Algeria is a multilingual speech community where individuals constantly mix between languages and language varieties in spoken discourse (Bagui, 2014). These include among others, the mother tongue of the majority Algerian Arabic, the official language Modern�Standard Arabic and the foreign languages learnt at schools French and English. This study is interested in exploring how are these linguistic resources used by Algerian Facebook users online and how are they combined with other affordances available on Facebook to communicate meaning, project identities, construct and address different audiences in this heterogeneous online environment. Data collection for the study combines quantitative and qualitative means which include (1) an online questionnaire distributed to 205 Algerian Facebook users, (2) screenshots of Facebook walls of four selected participants and (3) interviews with them, and finally (4) extracted posts and comments from one public Algerian Facebook page. The theoretical framework used to analyse the data combines concepts from the theory of Translanguaging (García & Li, 2014; Li, 2011a, 2017) and the Audience Design model (Androutsopoulos, 2014; Bell, 1984, 2001, 2009). The framework approaches Facebook users’ practices as creative ones and the findings indicate that participants combine an array of different resources to situate themselves in an online translanguaging space in which they express humoristic content, project multiple identities and index membership of local and global communities. The findings further indicate that linguistic and semiotic choices serve as a maximisation strategy for the audience of one’s contributions on Facebook pages. The study contributes to our understanding of digital communicative practices by highlighting the link between linguistic and non�linguistic choices and broader issues of social practice, identity and addressitivity.

description: La thèse interroge, à travers l’étude en profondeur du cas colombien, le rôle de la Cour interaméricaine des droits de l’homme (Cour IDH), au cours des vingt dernières années, dans le développement démocratique des pays d’Amérique latine. Les organisations colombiennes de défense des droits ont mobilisé activement la Cour IDH, un tribunal régional de protection des droits humains qui relève de l’Organisation des États américains (OÉA). Ces efforts ont été entrepris dans le but d’obtenir réparation pour les victimes individuelles des violations commises, mais aussi, plus fondamentalement, pour induire des transformations d’ordre structurel, c’est-à-dire sur l’ensemble des institutions et pratiques politiques au pays. L’hypothèse d’un effet « démocratisant » de la Cour IDH est examinée ici au regard de deux critères, développés grâce au croisement d’outils conceptuels relevant des sous-champs des Relations internationales, de la politique comparée et de la sociologie du droit : 1 – le degré d’expansion des possibilités de contestation des modes d’exercice du pouvoir (par les voies partisane et non partisane) ; et 2 – l’accessibilité effective, aux espaces de contestation nouvellement dégagés, des secteurs sociaux qui ont traditionnellement été exclus de la vie politique (les femmes, les Autochtones et les Afrodescendants). La conclusion de cette recherche est que la Cour IDH a eu sur le développement démocratique colombien un effet certain, mais qui est demeuré limité, en particulier au regard du second critère (accessibilité des secteurs sociaux exclus aux espaces de contestation). Dans le cadre de cette démonstration, sont révélées les voies judiciaires, politiques et diplomatiques par lesquelles les gouvernements colombiens successifs, sans jamais contester ouvertement l’autorité de la Cour IDH, sont pourtant parvenus à contourner, précisément, ces effets structurants (sur le développement démocratique dans son ensemble) que ce Tribunal avait commencé à produire pendant les années 2000. Les apports dégagés ici permettent de poser un regard critique sur les effets réels du travail de la Cour IDH elle-même mais aussi, plus largement, sur les outils théoriques et méthodologiques présentement disponibles pour l’étude de la transnationalisation des mouvements sociaux, de même que du rôle des instances judiciaires dans le développement démocratique des pays.
Can't Get No Satisfaction: Both Romantic Partners Tell Us Why

description: Romantic relationship satisfaction (RRS) has ramifications for personal, family, and societal well-being. However, RRS research has often failed to account for characteristics of both partners. The couples' sub-sample in Wave III of The National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health addresses this by including the romantic heterosexual partners of 1,500 emerging adult respondents. My analysis of relationship characteristics, demographic factors, stressors, and attitudes in this sub-sample reveals that, regardless of gender, own characteristics impacted RRS more than partner's characteristics. However, for men, partner characteristics were more important for RSS than for women. Furthermore, being in an interracial relationship was associated with lower RRS for women with no effect for men. Yet, a mismatch in college attendance between partners was associated with lower RRS for men but not for women. Beyond purposes of well-being, understanding the nuanced relationship dynamics of young adults can further inform policymakers interested in promoting healthy relationships.

description: The question about the appearance of time in the semiclassical limit of quantum gravity continues to be discussed in the literature. It is believed that a temporal Schrodinger equation for matter fields on the background of a classical gravitational field must be true. To obtain this equation, the Born - Oppenheimer approximation for gravity is used. However, the origin of time in this equation is different in works of various authors. For example, in the papers of Kiefer and his collaborators, time is a parameter along a classical trajectory of gravitational field; in the works of Montani and his collaborators the origin of time is introducing the Kuchar - Torre reference fluid; in the extended phase space approach the origin of time is the consequence of existing of the observer in a fixed reference frame. We discuss and compare these approaches. To make the calculations transparent, we illustrate them with a model of a closed isotropic universe. In each approach, one obtains some Schrodinger equation for matter fields with quantum gravitational corrections, but the form of the equation and the corrections depend on additional assumptions which are rather arbitrary. None of the approaches can explain how time had appeared in the Early Universe, since it is supposed that classical gravity and, therefore, classical spacetime had already come into being.

title: Passive Electric Field Sensing for Ubiquitous and Environmental Perception
Creators: name: Wilmsdorff, Julian von
Publisher: name: UNSPECIFIED
Year: 2023

description: Electric Field Sensing plays an important role in the research branches of Environmental Perception as well as in Ubiquitous Computing. Environmental Perception aims to collect data of the surroundings, while Ubiquitous Computing has the objective of making computing available at any time. This includes the integration of sensors to perceive environmental influences in an unobtrusive way. Electric Field Sensing, also referenced as Capacitive Sensing, is an often used sensing modality in these research fields, for example, to detect the presence of persons or to locate touches and interactions on user interfaces. Electric Field Sensing has a number of advantages over other technologies, such as the fact that Capacitive Sensing does not require direct line-of-sight contact with the object being sensed and that the sensing system can be compact in design. These advantages facilitate high integrability and allow the collection of data as required in Environmental Perception, as well as the invisible incorporation into a user's environment, needed in Ubiquitous Computing. However, disadvantages are often attributed to Capacitive Sensing principles, such as a low sensing range of only a few centimeters and the generation of electric fields, which wastes energy and has several more problems concerning the implementation. As shown in this thesis, this only affects a subset of this sensing technology, namely the subcategory of active capacitive measurements. Therefore, this thesis focuses on the mainly open area of Passive Electric Field Sensing in the context of Ubiquitous Computing and Environmental Perception, as active Capacitive Sensing is an open research field which already gains a lot of attention. The thesis is divided into three main research questions. First, I address the question of whether and how Passive Electric Field Sensing can be made available in a cost-effective and simple manner. To this end, I present various techniques for reducing installation costs and simplifying the handling of these sensor systems. After the question of low-cost applicability, I examine for which applications passive electric field sensor technology is suitable at all. Therefore I present several fields of application where Passive Electric Field Sensing data can be collected. Taking into account the possible fields of application, this work is finally dedicated to the optimization of Passive Electric Field Sensing in these cases of application. For this purpose, different, already known signal processing methods are investigated for their application for Passive Electric Field sensor data. Furthermore, besides these software optimizations, hardware optimizations for the improved use of the technology are presented.

description: Motivated by the physics of coherently coupled, ultracold atom-molecule mixtures, we investigate a classical model possessing the same symmetry -- namely a $U(1)\times \mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry, associated with the mass conservation in the mixture ($U(1)$ symmetry), times the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry in the phase relationship between atoms and molecules. In two spatial dimensions the latter symmetry can lead to a finite-temperature Ising transition, associated with (quasi) phase locking between the atoms and the molecules. On the other hand, the $U(1)$ symmetry has an associated Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition towards quasi-condensation of atoms or molecules. The existence of the two transitions is found to depend crucially on the population imbalance (or detuning) between atoms and molecules: when the molecules are majority in the system, their BKT quasi-condensation transition occurs at a higher temperature than that of the atoms; the latter has the unconventional nature of an Ising (quasi) phase-locking transition, lacking a finite local order parameter below the critical temperature. When the balance is gradually biased towards the atoms, the two transitions merge together to leave out a unique BKT transition, at which both atoms and molecules acquire quasi-long-range correlations, but only atoms exhibit conventional BKT criticality, with binding of vortex-antivortex pairs into short-range dipoles. The molecular vortex-antivortex excitations bind as well, but undergo a marked crossover from a high-temperature regime in which they are weakly bound, to a low-temperature regime of strong binding, reminiscent of their transition in the absence of atom-molecule coupling.
