description: Gamification is a motivation approach that has increasingly been utilized in a variety of application domains, including technology-enhanced education, to reinforce positive user experiences. Existing research has identified benefits and drawbacks of designing gamified software for different purposes, but little has been explored about the impact that individual gamification elements can have on the learning experience of students in secondary schools. Although many pedagogical approaches have been integrated into educational software to enhance learning outcomes, motivating students through cognitively demanding activities—such as questioning—remains challenging. Gamification can address this challenge by enabling students to enjoy using educational technologies.Thus, in this thesis I investigate the effects of combining gamification and questioning-based techniques in technology-enhanced education, to improve academic performance and learning experience in terms of software usability, user engagement, and motivation. A total of 810 students from five schools in three countries participated in the Main Study of this research. They were divided into (36) groups interacting with one of three gamification elements in two educational platforms: Knowma+ and Go-Lab. For both, I developed digital rewards in the form of points, badges, and leaderboards, which were shown to students after they had formulated questions related to an online physics lesson. Results confirmed that the gamified groups had significant differences compared to the control groups in all measures, except self-reported motivation. With the largest effect size, badges were shown to have a positive impact on students‘ perceptions of software usability, user engagement, academic performance, and questioning quality. Points and leaderboards were shown to have a more modest impact on these measures. Furthermore, results indicated that usability and user engagement were significant predictors of the learning gains. Implications are inferred from these findings, contributing to the future design and development of gamified educational software.

Rotation of the Solar System planets and the origin of the Moon in the context of the tidal downsizing hypothesis

description: It has been proposed recently that the first step in the formation of both rocky and gas giant planets is dust sedimentation into a solid core inside a gas clump (giant planet embryo). The clumps are then assumed to migrate closer to the star where their metal poor envelopes are sheared away by the tidal forces or by an irradiation-driven mass loss. We consider the implications of this hypothesis for natal rotation rates of both terrestrial and gas giant planets. It is found that both types of planets may rotate near their break up angular frequencies at birth. The direction of the spin should coincide with that of the parent disc and the star, except in cases of embryos that had close interactions or mergers with other embryos in the past. Furthermore, the large repository of specific angular momentum at birth also allows formation of close binary rocky planets inside the same embryos. We compare these predictions with rotation rates of planets in the Solar System and also question whether the Earth-Moon pair could have been formed within the same giant planet embryo.

description: As North American classrooms become increasingly diverse, it is important to examine children’s friendships with cross-racial classroom peers. The present study employed a short-term longitudinal design to investigate the bidirectional associations between cross-racial friendships and children’s social and academic adjustment. Participants were 583 elementary school children in western Canada, or the midwestern United States (4-10 years; 48% female; 143 Asian, 88 Black, 65 Hispanic or Latinx, 171 White, 116 mixed). Children’s adjustment (social preference, academic enablers, academic performance) and friendship nominations (reciprocated, received, given) were measured in fall and spring over one school year. Findings show that fall adjustment positively predicted spring reciprocated cross-racial friendships, but not vice-versa. Academic enablers and received cross-racial friendship nominations were positively and reciprocally related to one another. Fall same-racial friendships positively predicted spring academic performance and social preference. Effect sizes were small. Findings are discussed in the context of a multi-racial society.

description: La comunicazione visiva all’interno dello spazio pubblico è un campo della comunicazione da sempre attivo. Dall’inizio della storia dell’uomo però si è passati da una creazione di contenuti volti a vantare la propria superiorità o all’evocazione di scene mistiche, alla comunicazione pubblicitaria, politico-sociale o informativa, la quale si propone – nella maggior parte dei casi – unicamente uno scopo promozionale. In seguito ad un’indagine sui prodotti legati alla comunicazione visiva tipici dello spazio pubblico, si è proceduto con la creazione di un progetto di comunicazione non volto alla promozione di prodotti commerciali, bensì a mettere in relazione e a rafforzare la comunicazione con il contesto nella quale avviene. Il prodotto concepito è un festival di natura digitale, che si avvale di un festival più grande al fine di approfittare delle sue risorse, quali ad esempio la sua affluenza di visitatori, e quell’ambiente che si viene a creare quando una città ospita un evento. Del festival è stata eseguita l’ideazione dei possibili contenuti e delle modalità di fruizione, nonché l’ipotesi del tipo di contenuto derivante dalla pressoché totale libertà nel realizzarli da parte degli utenti registrati. Si è in seguito proceduto con la realizzazione di tutti i possibili supporti alla comunicazione del festival e della modalità di fruizione maggiormente appropriata: un’applicazione capace di sovrapporre per mezzo della realtà aumentata i contenuti creati dagli utenti a quelli presenti nello spazio pubblico. Attraverso quest’applicazione, gli utenti del festival potranno fruire del contenuto generato dagli utenti registrati, e dare una valutazione sulla loro relazione con il contesto urbano nel quale si trovano. Attraverso una mappa che fornisce informazioni in realtà aumentata, gli utenti del festival saranno invitati a itinerare all’interno della città alla ricerca dei contenuti.

description: We present results of 6 years of observations, reduced and analyzed with the same tools in a systematic way. We report completely new data for 15 objects, for 5 objects we present a new analysis of previously published results plus additional data and for 9 objects we present a new analysis of data already published. Lightcurves, possible rotation periods and photometric amplitudes are reported for all of them. The photometric variability is smaller than previously thought: the mean amplitude of our sample is 0.1mag and only around 15% of our sample has a larger variability than 0.15mag. The smaller variability than previously thought seems to be a bias of previous observations. We find a very weak trend of faster spinning objects towards smaller sizes, which appears to be consistent with the fact that the smaller objects are more collisionally evolved, but could also be a specific feature of the Centaurs, the smallest objects in our sample. We also find that the smaller the objects, the larger their amplitude, which is also consistent with the idea that small objects are more collisionally evolved and thus more deformed. Average rotation rates from our work are 7.5h for the whole sample, 7.6h for the TNOs alone and 7.3h for the Centaurs. All of them appear to be somewhat faster than what one can derive from a compilation of the scientific literature and our own results. Maxwellian fits to the rotation rate distribution give mean values of 7.5h (for the whole sample) and 7.3h (for the TNOs only). Assuming hydrostatic equilibrium we can determine densities from our sample under the additional assumption that the lightcurves are dominated by shape effects, which is likely not realistic. The resulting average density is 0.92g/cm^3 which is not far from the density constraint that one can derive from the apparent spin barrier that we observe.

description: The magnetic excitation spectrum of the unconventional ferromagnet CeRh$_{3}$B$_{2}$ was measured by inelastic neutron scattering on single crystal sample in the magnetically ordered and paramagnetic phases. The spin-wave excitation spectrum evidences high exchange interaction along the c-axis about two orders of magnitude higher than the ones in the basal plane of the hexagonal structure. Both strong out of plane and small in plane anisotropies are found. This latter point confirms that considering the $J$=5/2 multiplet alone is not adequate for describing the ground state of CeRh$_{3}$B$_{2}$. Quasielastic scattering measured above $T_{Curie}$ is also strongly anisotropic between the basal plane and the c-axis and suggests localized magnetism.

description: A l’égard de la disparition lexicale, on voit se succéder, et parfois entrer en conflit deux attitudes : le désir de retenir les vieux mots et celui de les congédier.

Les acteurs de la Révolution française ont cru pouvoir révolutionner la langue, non seulement par la création de mots nouveaux, mais aussi, et c’est ce qui nous intéressera plus particulièrement ici, par l’abolition de mots appartenant au régime qu’ils voulaient renverser

description: Casimir forces between conductors at the sub-micron scale cannot be ignored in the design and operation of micro-electromechanical (MEM) devices. However, these forces depend non-trivially on geometry, and existing formulae and approximations cannot deal with realistic micro-machinery components with sharp edges and tips. Here, we employ a novel approach to electromagnetic scattering, appropriate to perfect conductors with sharp edges and tips, specifically to wedges and cones. The interaction of these objects with a metal plate (and among themselves) is then computed systematically by a multiple-scattering series. For the wedge, we obtain analytical expressions for the interaction with a plate, as functions of opening angle and tilt, which should provide a particularly useful tool for the design of MEMs. Our result for the Casimir interactions between conducting cones and plates applies directly to the force on the tip of a scanning tunneling probe; the unexpectedly large temperature dependence of the force in these configurations should attract immediate experimental interest.

description: Il lavoro in oggetto è la sperimentazione di tecniche probabilistiche atte a costruire delle solide competenze in un diverso ambito della matematica, quello insiemistico. La sperimentazione ha avuto luogo durante quest’anno scolastico in una prima della scuola media di Canobbio. La modalità utilizzata è stata la creazione di un clima di onnipresenza della probabilità, dalla sua introduzione in una classe che non vi aveva mai avuto nulla a che fare prima, fino ad arrivare alla spiegazione della teoria degli insiemi. Diverse verifiche di tipo diagnostico, formativo e sommativo sono state somministrate ai ragazzi per controllare l’andamento del percorso didattico e il feed-back degli studenti è stato un elemento fondamentale della sperimentazione. Gli studenti hanno mostrato un grande interesse alle lezioni di probabilità e le verifiche finali con cui si sono dovuti confrontare hanno dato segno di una chiara comprensione dell’argomento dalla larga maggioranza. Pur non avendo un valore statistico, essendo i partecipanti solo 24, i buoni risultati ottenuti mi spingeranno a ripetere ed a continuare la sperimentazione nell’immediato futuro con l’obiettivo ulteriore di dare più importanza all’ambito probabilistico, spesso sottovalutato, almeno a questo livello scolastico.

description: Orbital physics plays a significant role for a vast number of important phenomena in complex condensed matter systems such as high-T$_c$ superconductivity and unconventional magnetism. In contrast, phenomena in superfluids -- especially in ultracold quantum gases -- are commonly well described by the lowest orbital and a real order parameter. Here, we report on the observation of a novel multi-orbital superfluid phase with a {\it complex} order parameter in binary spin mixtures. In this unconventional superfluid, the local phase angle of the complex order parameter is continuously twisted between neighboring lattice sites. The nature of this twisted superfluid quantum phase is an interaction-induced admixture of the p-orbital favored by the graphene-like band structure of the hexagonal optical lattice used in the experiment. We observe a second-order quantum phase transition between the normal superfluid (NSF) and the twisted superfluid phase (TSF) which is accompanied by a symmetry breaking in momentum space. The experimental results are consistent with calculated phase diagrams and reveal fundamentally new aspects of orbital superfluidity in quantum gas mixtures. Our studies might bridge the gap between conventional superfluidity and complex phenomena of orbital physics.

description: It is interesting to determine the fraction of the gluonium component in $η$ and $η'$ which has been under serious discussion for many years. Measurements on different decay and/or production modes were employed in literatures, thus larger uncertainties were unavoidable. In this paper we suggest to determine the mixing angles of $η-η'-G$ using the data of semileptonic decays of $D$ and $D_s$. We extract the mixing angles $ϕ'$, $ϕ_G$ and the model parameters simultaneously. Thanks to the new measurements carried out by CLEO Collaboration and there are sufficient decay modes to determine both the model parameters and mixing angles. The mixing angles from data are $ϕ'=(41.5\pm2.0)^\circ$ and $\sinϕ_G=0.00\pm0.36$. Even though the central value of $\sinϕ_G$ is still zero, an upper bound is set. Moreover, as suggested in literature, $η(1405)$ is a glueball candidate whereas in our picture, $η(1405)$ may be identified as $G$ with glueonium being its main content. Using all the model-parameters obtained above, we estimate the branching ratios of $D_s^+(D^+)\rightarrow Ge^+ν_e$ where G is identified as $η(1405)$.

Seeing without sight : an exploration of the athlete -- guide partnership in high-performance parasport
Creators: name: Mannella, Staci
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: Individuals who are blind or visually impaired compete in Paralympic sports with the help of their sighted guides. The guide participates alongside the athlete, and the pair seek to achieve optimal performance together. The partnership transforms many sports such as athletics, cycling, skiing, and triathlon, which are typically understood to be individual, into team sports dependent on communication and rapport. The purpose of this study was to explore how the athlete – guide partnership is experienced in high-performance parasport. More specifically, the study sought to identify how interdependence is experienced within these partnerships and how the athlete – guide partnership challenges and/or reproduces normative assumptions of bodies, abilities, and sport. The study was informed by a critical interpretivist paradigm and included 12 semi-structured interviews with both the athletes and the guides from six high-performance athlete – guide pairs. The data were analyzed through a reflexive thematic analysis and four themes were constructed: “You Live as a Team, You Die as a Team” captured the unique benefits and challenges of working as a team in the athlete – guide partnership. The theme Better Together was guided by Poczwardowski et al.’s (2019) 5C’s model of interdependence and represents how athletes and guides uniquely experienced compatibility, closeness, commitment, complementarity, and coorientation. The next theme, Building Bridges: Connecting and Embracing Differences illustrates how the athlete – guide partnership can be used as a tool to challenge normative assumptions of dis/abilities, ab/normalities, and sport. Finally, The Uphill Battle describes how the partnership reproduces negative understandings of disability and sport. The study provides novel insights into how these partnerships are experienced and the ways in which interdependent relationships shape experiences and understandings of disability in the context of high-performance sport. Recommendations for sport psychologists and other sport professionals who support these partnerships are provided.
