title: Towards better support for high-functioning autistic learners in a mainstream sixth form classroom
Creators: name: Hopp, Sarah Ann
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2022

description: This conceptual Dissertation emerged from my personal professional experiences as the Head of Additional Learning Support and Inclusion at a London Sixth Form College. The study considers the ways in which support for 16 to 19-year-old autistic learners who are deemed as high functioning might be improved. Initially I analyse current educational policy and legislation, using Martha Nussbaum’s version of the Capabilities Approach as an analytical lens. I argue that an education system based on a commodified, meritocratic, standardised, and neoliberal understanding of success has had a detrimental impact on both the flourishing and working relationships of high-functioning autistic learners and their teachers in the classroom. I contend that this type of education system focuses on employability skills using narrow understandings of human flourishing and what it means to be human. I suggest that Nussbaum’s Capabilities Approach offers an alternative value system based on the recognition of human dignity and a broader and deeper understanding of what it means to be human by acknowledging and embracing different ways of thinking and being. I then discuss the difficulties high-functioning autistic learners encounter with social communication and functioning and feeling misunderstood which, I argue, are compounded by the pressures caused by the current meritocratic commodified education system. Additionally, and following Nussbaum’s work on emotions, I argue that key to the improvement of the understanding and support of high-functioning autistic learners in the classroom is a dialogical, empathetic, and compassionate working relationship between the teacher and the learner, both of whom are on a mutual learning journey. I then discuss how this relationship can be enhanced with the values of Nussbaum’s Capabilities Approach practically implemented using Armstrong’s Positive Niche Construction. I contend, in my conclusion, that this approach to education will benefit not only high functioning autistic learners but all learners.

description: Pectin is a dynamic and complex polysaccharide that forms a substantial proportion of the primary plant cell wall and middle lamella of forage ingested by grazing ruminants. Pectin methylesterases (PMEs) are enzymes that belongs to the carbohydrate esterase family 8 (CE8) and catalyze the demethylesterification of pectin, a key polysaccharide in cell walls. In this study, the catalytic domain of a pectin methylesterase (PME) gene, was cloned from the rumen bacterium Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens D1T and the recombinant enzyme was expressed in Escherichia coli. Here we present the crystal structure of the catalytic domain of PmeC5 determined to a resolution of 1.33 Å with the potential substrate binding domain defined. PmeC5 is a large modular enzyme that is characteristic of rumen B. fibrisolvens megaplasmids and plays a central role in degrading plant cell wall components and releasing methanol in the rumen environment. Such secreted PMEs are significant contributors to plant fiber digestion as well as methane production, making them worthwhile targets for both methane mitigation strategies and livestock productivity enhancement.

description: It has long been recognized that the scattering of electroweak particles at very high energies is dominated by vector boson fusion, which probes the origin of electroweak symmetry breaking and offers a unique window into the ultraviolet regime of the SM. Previous studies assume SM-like couplings and rely on the effective $W$ approximation (or electroweak parton distribution), whose validity is well-established within the SM but not yet studied in the presence of anomalous Higgs couplings. In this work, we critically examine the electroweak production of two Higgs bosons in the presence of anomalous $VVh$ and $VVhh$ couplings. We compute the corresponding helicity amplitudes and compare the cross section results in the effective $W$ approximation with the full fixed-order calculation. In particular, we identify two distinct classes of anomalous Higgs couplings, whose effects are not captured by vector boson fusion and effective $W$ approximation. Such very high energy electroweak scatterings can be probed at the Muon Shot, a multi-TeV muon collider upon which we base our study, although similar considerations apply to other high energy colliders.

description: If we can agree that working on preservation projects requires different skills sets compared to modern construction, then there should be a qualification standard for the craftworker engaged in preservation. This thesis research explored the question: How can the preservation community create and define a qualification standard for the Preservation Craftworker? In order to answer this hypothesis, my thesis research examines several past and present preservation programs, the Secretary of the Interior‘s Professional Qualification Standard and examines the process in developing a new job classification for the preservation craftworker. This thesis research also included responses from a survey, which was developed in order to obtain additional data from practicing craftworkers, contractors and preservation professionals. In evaluating the survey responses, it was found that there is a strong desire among practicing professionals in developing a qualification standard for craftworkers. In addition, this thesis research has revealed a number of individuals, organizations and past initiatives dedicated to the education of craftworkers engaged in preservation. Upon evaluating, the endless amount of material developed by these various individuals and organizations, this thesis research determined that the key in establishing a nationally recognized qualification standard for preservation craftworkers rests collectively among these stakeholders. Although there is much more research needed in establishing a qualification standard, the material contained in this thesis research will undoubtedly aide in those future researches. My thesis research demonstrates that the preservation community has more than ample information and resources to create qualification standards for the preservation craft worker who will restore, conserve and maintain our historic buildings and structures. It is now time to recognize the need for defining the minimum qualifications of craftworkers engaged in preservation and enact a national preservation craftworker standard. Otherwise, buildings will certainly continue to lose their integrity at the hands of craftworkers who lack the knowledge and understanding of historic materials and mistakenly apply treatments that are incompatible with historic buildings.

description: The power of place is inherent in our cultural landscapes. The connection of their historic meaning motivates people to preserve them. This study examines cultural landscapes, their complex characteristics, and the historic preservation strategies and methods that can best preserve them in Palm Beach County, Florida. Following a discussion of cultural landscapes, a matrix of cultural landscapes in Palm Beach County is constructed to illustrate and define types and characteristics of cultural landscapes. A review of Palm Beach County’s history and cultural events in relation to its landscapes is presented. The rationale supporting preservation of cultural landscapes is addressed, as are the strategies and methods that make preservation materialize. An investigation of two cultural landscapes in Palm Beach County, including their historic context and significance, illustrates the complexity of preserving cultural landscapes and identifies successful and unsuccessful preservation strategies and methods. The case study of the Loxahatchee River and Environs presents an excellent example of the whole being greater than the parts, and how preservation of a cultural landscape can create partnerships to optimize benefits to Palm Beach County. This cultural landscape includes remnants of the earliest settlers in Florida including Native American villages and early pioneer settlements. It also contains the Loxahatchee Battlefield, where the Battle of the Loxahatchee occurred during the Second Seminole War (1835-1842) over the banks of the Loxahatchee River. This landscape has an abundance of cultural significance to Palm Beach County. The approaches to its preservation are comprehensive. The case study of Canal Point presents a different cultural landscape where the cultural significance to the County is also in abundance. Here the local community continues to exist. The approach to the preservation of Canal Point’s cultural landscape has been different from the Loxahatchee approach and has produced markedly different results. An active citizens group attempted to partner with Palm Beach County, but success was not forthcoming. The conclusion compares and analyzes the strategies that were utilized in Palm Beach County’s cultural landscape preservation approach to these two sites. Strategies and methods for comprehensive cultural landscape preservation programs are clearly indicated. It is these strategies and methods, in coordination with the underlying rationales, which are necessary to cultural landscape preservation. It is the power of significant partnerships that can make it successful.

description: Technological advancements have made rock engineering more data-driven, leading to increased use of machine learning (ML). While the use of ML in rock engineering has the potential to transform the industry, several methodological issues should first be addressed: (i) rock engineering’s use of biased (poor quality) data, resulting in biased ML models and (ii) limited rock mass classification and characterization data. If these issues are not addressed, rock engineering risks using unreliable ML models that can have potential real-life adverse impacts. This paper aims to provide an overview of these methodological issues and demonstrate their impact on the reliability of ML models using surrogate models. To take full advantage of the benefits of ML, rock engineers should make sure that their ML models are reliable by ensuring that there are sufficient unbiased data to develop reliable ML models. In the context of this paper, the term sufficient retains a relative meaning since the amount of data that is sufficient to develop reliable a ML models depends on the problem under consideration and the application of the ML model (e.g., pre-feasibility, feasibility, design stage).

 In one of your memo you said that I am anti British which is not true. Instead of this if you say I am anti flagrant layer or anti dishonest I would admit.
 I request that you cease at once your such insulting memorandums, otherwise I shall be obliged to take the appropriate legal step. I regret having to write this, but when polite and patient approach receives no result there is no other alternative.

description: We present the AM$^3$ ("Astrophysical Multi-Messenger Modeling") software. AM$^3$ is a documented open source software that efficiently solves the coupled integro-differential equations describing the temporal evolution of the spectral densities of particles interacting in astrophysical environments, in-cluding photons, electrons, positrons, protons, neutrons, pions, muons, and neutrinos. The software has been extensively used to simulate the multi-wavelength and neutrino emission from active galactic nuclei (including blazars), gamma-ray bursts, and tidal disruption events. The simulations include all relevant non-thermal processes, namely synchrotron emission, inverse Compton scattering, photon-photon annihilation, proton-proton and proton-photon pion production, and photo-pair production. The software self-consistently calculates the full cascade of primary and secondary particles, including non-linear feedback processes and predictions in the time domain. It also allows to track separately the particle densities produced by means of each distinct interaction processes, including the different hadronic channels. With its efficient hybrid solver combining analytical and numerical techniques, AM$^3$ combines efficiency and accuracy at a user-adjustable level. We describe the technical details of the numerical framework and present three examples of applications to different astrophysical environments.

description: The order and chain polytopes are two 0/1-polytopes constructed from a finite poset. In this paper, we study the $f$-vectors of these polytopes. We investigate how the order and chain polytopes behave under disjoint unions and ordinal sums of posets, and how the $f$-vectors of these polytopes are expressed in terms of $f$-vectors of smaller polytopes. Our focus is on comparing the $f$-vectors of the order and chain polytope built from the same poset. In our main theorem we prove that for a family of posets built inductively by taking disjoint unions and ordinal sums of posets, for any poset $\mathcal{P}$ in this family the $f$-vector of the order polytope of $\mathcal{P}$ is component-wise at most the $f$-vector of the chain polytope of $\mathcal{P}$.

description: This thesis explores the factors that led to the rise and fall of movie theaters located in downtown centers, their challenges for continued use and presents the preservation tool of adaptive use to save and restore utility and viability to these landmarks. The thesis seeks an answer the question, “Can historic downtown movie theaters be adaptively used to maintain their architectural and cultural significance?” Particular attention is given to the physical adaptation of the building. The thesis begins with a history of the downtown movie theater. The social, political and economic forces which affected the film industry and movie theaters are outlined in the first two chapters. The third chapter involves an intensive study and survey of three downtown movie theaters which have all been adaptively used and retain their architectural and cultural merits. The case studies are located in different parts of the county, and are of different size and architectural style. They all share downtown locations and were specifically built to function as movie theaters. Interviews with those involved in the projects (consultants, contractors, owners), newspaper articles, historical research, site visits (where possible) and photographs document the changes in the buildings. Efforts to save/revitalize the building and find a compatible new use/owner for each theater are also explored in this chapter. The fourth chapter analyzes the case studies and how they worked. The building’s design challenges are discussed as well as how the character-defining and significant features of the original theater were incorporated into the new use. The thesis ends with recommendations on adaptively reusing a downtown theater as discovered through the thesis’ research process.

description: In the face of global ocean warming, monitoring essential climate variables from space is necessary for understanding regional trends in ocean dynamics and their subsequent impacts on ecosystem health. Analysis Ready Data (ARD), being preprocessed satellite-derived products such as Sea Surface Temperature (SST), allow for easy synoptic analysis of temperature conditions given the consideration of regional biases within a dynamic range. This is especially true for SST retrieval in thermally complex coastal zones. In this study, we assessed the accuracy of 30 m resolution Landsat ARD Surface Temperature products to measure nearshore SST, derived from Landsat 8 TIRS, Landsat 7 ETM+, and Landsat 5 TM thermal bands over a 37-year period (1984–2021). We used in situ lighthouse and buoy matchup data provided by Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO). Excellent agreement (R2 of 0.94) was found between Landsat and spring/summer in situ SST at the farshore buoy site (>10 km from the coast), with a Landsat mean bias (root mean square error) of 0.12 °C (0.95 °C) and a general pattern of SST underestimation by Landsat 5 of −0.28 °C (0.96 °C) and overestimation by Landsat 8 of 0.65 °C (0.98 °C). Spring/summer nearshore matchups revealed the best Landsat mean bias (root mean square error) of −0.57 °C (1.75 °C) at 90–180 m from the coast for ocean temperatures between 5 °C and 25 °C. Overall, the nearshore image sampling distance recommended in this manuscript seeks to capture true SST as close as possible to the coastal margin—and the critical habitats of interest—while minimizing the impacts of pixel mixing and adjacent land emissivity on satellite-derived SST.
Steeling Home: Defining Authenticity and Integrity for Prefabricated Lustron Homes

description: Lustron Homes, post-World War II prefabricated ranch houses made of steel, are more than just architectural novelties. These precision-engineered marvels of mass production have benefited from growing awareness and preservation efforts. But in order to determine appropriate preservation strategies for Lustron Homes, we must examine the twin issues of integrity and authenticity, and how standards should be interpreted and applied. This thesis examines the question: How should authenticity and integrity be defined for the preservation of prefabricated Lustron Homes? The answers to this question will offer a new way for evaluating Lustron Homes on their own terms. By analyzing National Register nominations, guidelines, and other perspectives on assessing integrity, my research concludes that the National Register definition and criteria for integrity can be reasonably interpreted and applied to Lustron Homes. To determine integrity for a Lustron Home, one should ask: Does the Lustron Home convey its architectural and engineering significance and its identity as a postwar precision- engineered, prefabricated, mass-produced house? Authenticity is more than just a test for an historic property to pass. A firm understanding can help guide the treatment and management of a property on an ongoing basis. My analysis identifies conceptual authenticity – the expression of an historic resource’s generating principles and key conceptual values – as the most relevant approach to determining authenticity for Lustron Homes. My thesis defines conceptual authenticity for Lustron Homes as the honest expression of the values of mass production, durability, and modernity. I use this definition of authenticity to evaluate four main areas of preservation or rehabilitation methods – alterations and additions, moving and disassembly, cleaning and painting, and repair and replacement. The definition of conceptual authenticity and my interpretation of integrity standards can be adapted and applied to other types of twentieth-century prefabricated housing to supplement an integrity-based preservation approach. A Lustron preservation approach taking authenticity into account should retain or enhance the expression of the identity or “true soul” of a Lustron Home, embracing the key conceptual values of mass production, durability, and modernity. The Lustron marketing slogan, “The Lustron Home – A New Standard for Living,” represents not only the revolutionary spirit of the Lustron Home’s identity, but the optimistic postwar spirit of using mass production processes to make the dream of homeownership attainable for all Americans.

description: The paper industry is the industry with the third highest energy consumption in the European Union. Using recycled paper instead of fresh fibers for papermaking is less energy consuming and saves resources. However, adhesive contaminants in recycled paper are particularly problematic since they reduce the quality of the resulting paper-product. To remove as many contaminants and at the same time obtain as many valuable fibres as possible, fine screening systems, consisting of multiple interconnected pressure screens, are used. Choosing the best configuration is a non-trivial task: The screens can be interconnected in several ways, and suitable screen designs as well as operational parameters have to be selected. Additionally, one has to face conflicting objectives. In this paper, we present an approach for the multi-criteria optimization of pressure screen systems based on Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming. We specifically focus on a clear representation of the trade-off between different objectives.

To be precise, we show that any wavelet with finitely many vanishing moments allows for the unique recovery of real-valued bandlimited signals up to global sign. Additionally, we present the first uniqueness result for sampled wavelet phase retrieval in which the underlying wavelets are allowed to be complex-valued and we present a uniqueness result for phase retrieval from sampled Cauchy wavelet transform measurements.

description: We demonstrate an efficient and continuous microwave photon to electron converter with large quantum efficiency ($83\%$) and low dark current. These unique properties are enabled by the use of a high kinetic inductance disordered superconductor, granular aluminium, to enhance light-matter interaction and the coupling of microwave photons to electron tunneling processes. As a consequence of strong coupling, we observe both linear and non-linear photon-assisted processes where 2, 3 and 4 photons are converted into a single electron at unprecedentedly low light intensities. Theoretical predictions, which require quantization of the photonic field within a quantum master equation framework, reproduce well the experimental data. This experimental advancement brings the foundation for high-efficiency detection of individual microwave photons using charge-based detection techniques.

description: Gate-defined quantum dots are a promising candidate system for realizing scalable, coupled qubit systems and serving as a fundamental building block for quantum computers. However, present-day quantum dot devices suffer from imperfections that must be accounted for, which hinders the characterization, tuning, and operation process. Moreover, with an increasing number of quantum dot qubits, the relevant parameter space grows sufficiently to make heuristic control infeasible. Thus, it is imperative that reliable and scalable autonomous tuning approaches are developed. This meeting report outlines current challenges in automating quantum dot device tuning and operation with a particular focus on datasets, benchmarking, and standardization. We also present insights and ideas put forward by the quantum dot community on how to overcome them. We aim to provide guidance and inspiration to researchers invested in automation efforts.

description: Jing Zhang proved the consistency of $\binom{ω_2}{ω_1}\rightarrow\binom{n}{ω_1}_ω$ for every $n\inω$ with the negative relation $\binom{ω_2}{ω_1}\nrightarrow\binomω{ω_1}_ω$. We reduce the consistency strength of this statement to an $ω_1$-Erdos cardinal.

description: We show that the set of awesome homogeneous metrics on non-compact manifolds is Ricci flow invariant. Moreover, if the universal cover of such awesome homogeneous space is not contractible the Ricci flow has finite extinction time, confirming the Dynamical Alekseevskii Conjecture in this case.

description: Cooperative transportation by multi-aerial robots has the potential to support various payloads and improve failsafe against dropping. Furthermore, changing the attachment positions of robots according payload characteristics increases the stability of transportation. However, there are almost no transportation systems capable of scaling to the payload weight and size and changing the optimal attachment positions. To address this issue, we propose a cooperative transportation system comprising autonomously executable software and suitable hardware, covering the entire process, from pre-takeoff setting to controlled flight. The proposed system decides the formation of the attachment positions by prioritizing controllability based on the center of gravity obtained from Bayesian estimations with robot pairs. We investigated the cooperative transportation of an unknown payload larger than that of whole carrier robots through numerical simulations. Furthermore, we performed cooperative transportation of an unknown payload (with a weight of about 3.2 kg and maximum length of 1.76 m) using eight robots. The proposed system was found to be versatile with regard to handling unknown payloads with different shapes and center-of-gravity positions.

description: This paper makes mathematically precise the idea that conditional probabilities are analogous to path liftings in geometry.
 The idea of lifting is modelled in terms of the category-theoretic concept of a lens, which can be interpreted as a consistent choice of arrow liftings. The category we study is the one of probability measures over a given standard Borel space, with morphisms given by the couplings, or transport plans.
 The geometrical picture is even more apparent once we equip the arrows of the category with weights, which one can interpret as "lengths" or "costs", forming a so-called weighted category, which unifies several concepts of category theory and metric geometry.
 Indeed, we show that the weighted version of a lens is tightly connected to the notion of submetry in geometry.
 Every weighted category gives rise to a pseudo-quasimetric space via optimization over the arrows. In particular, Wasserstein spaces can be obtained from the weighted categories of probability measures and their couplings, with the weight of a coupling given by its cost.
 In this case, conditionals allow one to form weighted lenses, which one can interpret as "lifting transport plans, while preserving their cost".

description: Cooperative transportation via multiple aerial robots has the potential to support various payloads and reduce the chances of them being dropped. Furthermore, autonomously controlled robots render the system scalable with respect to the payload. In this study, a cooperative transportation system was developed using rigidly attached single-rotor robots, and a decentralized controller was proposed to guarantee asymptotic stability of the error dynamics for unknown strictly positive real systems. A feedback controller was used to transform unstable systems into strictly positive real ones considering the shared attachment positions. First, the cooperative transportation of unknown payloads with different shapes larger than the carrier robots was investigated via numerical simulations. Second, cooperative transportation of an unknown payload (with a weight of approximately 2.7 kg and maximum length of 1.6 m) was demonstrated using eight robots, even under robot failure. Finally, the proposed system was shown to be capable of carrying an unknown payload, even if the attachment positions were not shared, that is, even if asymptotic stability was not strictly guaranteed.

description: Problem The main problem that we aimed to address within our low carbon cropping system was to reduce carbon emissions while increasing the production of biomass. Another objective was to improve the economic benefits of the system by growing a commercial relay crop. Solution The low carbon cropping system that we designed consists of 2 overlapping crops with shifted growing cycles (winter crop and spring crop). The first crop is sown in 2 rows out of 3. The second crop is sown in the free row while the first is developing. The harvests are shifted too, with the first harvest being on the usual date and the second in autumn.

description: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a metabolic disease resulting from progressive autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells. Although the majority of beta cells are lost in T1D, a small subset undergoes senescence, a stress response involving growth arrest, DNA damage response, and activation of a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). SASP in beta cells of the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse model of T1D and primary human islets is regulated at the level of transcription by bromodomain extra-terminal (BET) proteins, but the mechanisms remain unclear. To explore how SASP is transcriptionally regulated in beta cells, we used the NOD beta cell line NIT-1 to model beta cell SASP and identified binding partners of BET protein Brd4 and explored the role of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21. Brd4 interacted with a variety of proteins in senescent NIT-1 cells including subunits of the Ino80 chromatin remodeling complex, which was expressed in beta cells during T1D progression in NOD mice and in human beta cells of control, autoantibody-positive, and T1D donors as determined from single-cell RNA-seq data. RNAi knockdown of p21 during senescence in NIT-1 cells did not significantly impact viability or SASP. Taken together, these results suggest that Brd4 interacts with several protein partners during senescence in NIT-1 cells, some of which may play roles in SASP gene activation and that p21 is dispensable for the SASP in this beta cell model.

description: Intermediate dimensions were recently introduced to provide a spectrum of dimensions interpolating between Hausdorff and box-counting dimensions for fractals where these differ. In particular, the self-affine Bedford-McMullen carpets are a natural case for investigation, but until now only very rough bounds for their intermediate dimensions have been found. In this paper, we determine a precise formula for the intermediate dimensions $\dim_{\, θ}Λ$ of any Bedford-McMullen carpet $Λ$ for the whole spectrum of $θ\in [0,1]$, in terms of a certain large deviations rate function. The intermediate dimensions exist and are strictly increasing in $θ$, and the function $θ\mapsto \dim_{\, θ}Λ$ exhibits interesting features not witnessed on any previous example, such as having countably many phase transitions, between which it is analytic and strictly concave.
 We make an unexpected connection to multifractal analysis by showing that two carpets with non-uniform vertical fibres have equal intermediate dimensions if and only if the Hausdorff multifractal spectra of the uniform Bernoulli measures on the two carpets are equal. Since intermediate dimensions are bi-Lipschitz invariant, this shows that the equality of these multifractal spectra is a necessary condition for two such carpets to be Lipschitz equivalent.
