description: Undergraduate accounting students would benefit from the combined learning approach of simultaneous classroom and workplace experience to better prepare them for the challenges of industry. In the absence of teachers, subjects and assessment, students need to know how to learn by reflecting on their workplace knowledge and skills, both for professional growth and development, and to adapt to an ever-changing workplace environment. This paper presents a unique internship programme for business students, focusing on their learning beyond the classroom. The Commerce Internship Programme (CIP) developed and implemented at the University of Wollongong, Australia, offers a model for enhancing student engagement in learning through practical experience. This study explored the reflective learning insights of accounting students who participated in CIP. Data was collected across two cohorts of students who participated in the internship program in the autumn and spring semesters of 2009. Preliminary results suggest that accounting students reveal learning pertaining to their workplace preparedness, understanding of accounting principles and taught concepts, generic skill enhancement and consolidation of accounting as their chosen professional career. The paper suggests that such a programme as the one examined will contribute to the professional bodies' expectations of accounting graduates to possess key cognitive and behavioural skills.
Reading the riot act: An analysis of six official inquiries into the use of excessive force by police at protest demonstrations

Subjects: subject: Sociology, Criminology and Penology.

description: Public events such as protest demonstrations can lead to violent confrontations between protesters and police. This study attempts to identify factors that may lead to the excessive use of force by police at protest demonstrations. A review of the literature revealed nine factors that may influence police behaviour: the presence of aggressive and violent protesters, high levels of officer stress, high levels of officer aggression, a loss of professional self-control, the influence of personal problems and the attitudes of individual officers, the influence of peer relations and the police sub-culture, insufficient and inadequate supervision, inadequate training and equipment, and insufficient and inaccurate communication, information, and planning. An analysis was conducted of six investigative reports of alleged excessive use of force by police at protest demonstrations. The results indicate that the predominant factor that led to the excessive use of force was insufficient and inaccurate communication, information, and planning by police and security personnel. Limitations of this thesis include the small number of official inquiry reports available; the subjective nature of coding, scoring, and ranking of factors; and the possibility that not all the factors that were identified in this study were considered by investigators of each of the six events as having contributed to the excessive use of force. The general purpose of this study is to provide police with comprehensive information regarding elements of policing which affect their actions when in crowd control or protest situations.

description: Solution gas is commonly evolved in the production of oil and bitumen. When crude ail in the reservoir is exposed to atmospheric pressure, the gaseous stream dissolved in the liquid phase comes out of solution. Flaring or venting directly to the atmosphere are two common means to dispose of solution gas at oil and bitumen batteries where it cannot be conserved. Although the trend for conservation continues to grow, there were still 408 million m 3 of solution gas flared and 435 million m3 vented in 2003 at crude oil and bitumen batteries in Alberta, Canada. Our project aims at the partial recovery of the heat that is currently lost to the atmosphere when solution gas burns in an open-air flame. The ultimate objective of the recovery system is the generation of electricity to inject enough air for the complete combustion of solution gas that is flared in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and smoke formation.

description: The importance of education reform is being discussed almost in all countries. In Russia the reform has become acute and if a modern working system is not created instead of degraded remnants of the Soviet secondary and high schools other problems will be less important for the country. It should be noted that modernization of higher education is bound up with the Bologna process in the public mind. Competitiveness reasons are also mentioned in favor of a European higher education area.

description: Introduction: This study linked driver records with hospital records to investigate the correlation of injury data in police collision reports with need for hospital admission. Methods: We studied hospital admissions and traffic collisions involving British Columbia residents between 2005 and 2015. Probabilistic linkage between driver licence and personal health number was successful for 95.5% of drivers. We first compared population level statistics on number of serious injuries following a motor vehicle crash according to police reports with the number hospital admissions for road trauma recorded in hospital records. Second, we determined how often drivers involved in police-reported crashes were admitted to hospital. Finally we studied drivers admitted to hospital for road trauma and determined how many of these collisions resulted in a police report, and when reports were available, how often police indicated no injury, minor injury, or major injury. Results: There was poor agreement between police indication of injury severity and requirement for hospital admission. Population statistics from police reports counted only 70% as many road users with major injuries as there were hospital admissions for road trauma survivors. At the individual level, police indication of major injury had even worse correlation with requirement for hospital admission. Only half (56%) of drivers for whom police indicated “major injury” required admission to hospital and only 36% of drivers who required admission to hospital after a crash had a police report indicating major injury. Part of this discrepancy is because police attended only 65% of crashes of hospitalized drivers. However, even when police attended the crash of a hospitalized driver, the police report indicated a major injury only 55% of the time. Implications: Our findings highlight a significant limitation of road trauma surveillance and traffic evaluations that rely on injury data from police collision reports. Recommendations for improvement are made.

description: We discuss our radio (Australia Telescope Compact Array and Australian Long Baseline Array) and X-ray (XMM-Newton) monitoring observations of the unusual ultraluminous supernova SN 1978K in NGC 1313 at 25 yr after the explosion. SN 1978K is a rare example of a Type IIn supernova that has remained bright enough to have long-term X-ray and radio observations. The observations probe the dense medium that was ejected by the progenitor star prior to its explosion; the star might have been a luminous blue variable. The radio imaging shows that the source remains compact, but it may be marginally resolved. The radio monitoring shows deviations from a smooth decay, suggesting that inhomogeneities are present in the radio-emitting region. It appears that a major change occurred in the mass-loss rate of the progenitor star shortly before the supernova event. The X-ray emission between 2000 and 2006 is consistent with the radiation coming from two shocks. All the X-ray data can be fit using the same model (with no systematic evolution or short-term variability), but this has a surprising requirement: the X-ray-emitting regions have a very large abundance of helium. This would be consistent with the X-ray-emitting shocks being located in a helium-rich layer that was ejected by the progenitor star, or helium-rich material was ejected in the supernova explosion. The unusual properties of the supernova motivated a search for an associated gamma-ray burst (GRB). We show that SN 1978K was inside the ~4 σ error box of GRB 771029. If this association is correct, the GRB was exceptionally underluminous. However, the quality of the gamma-ray burst locations at that time was poor, and this is likely just a chance alignment.
Understanding reflection: An interpretive study among selected practising long-term care nurses.
Creators: name: Brookes, Nancy L.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Health Sciences, Nursing.

description: This hermeneutic phenomenological inquiry centered on the broad questions: how do practising nurses experience reflection? Where, when, and how does reflection enter the experience of practising nurses? Seven long-term care nurses, a culturally cohesive sample, each participated in two audiotaped conversational interviews. Through these conversations, I gathered and explored experiential narrative material. A focus group with long-term care nurses from a different region enabled expansion, clarification and verification of the data. Descriptions and patterns emerged from the texts/data and I linked them to reflection dimensions and four fundamental lifeworld themes. Images of watching a movie, puzzling through, and putting the pieces together, capture the complexity of reflection. Three constructions illuminate the nurses' experience of reflection: reflection and the geography of everyday life; reflection in the between; and reflection is relation. These original and innovative understandings address an absence of practising nurses' experiences in the extant literature and contribute to scholarly knowledge. Implications for practice include accepting the challenge from the College of Nurses, reflective inquiry culture and reflection for practice. Reflection is in two modes, annual and everyday. A culture of reflective inquiry frames practice. The nurses act knowledge in practice. There is a curious absence of reflection in action/practice, and an environment unsympathetic to reflection and reflective practice. Reflection in the geography of everyday life is a remarkable contrast to the almost reified conceptions of or formulae for reflection. The language of the everyday characterizes these nurses' experience of reflection. Reflection terminology has infiltrated practice, but it is unclear if practice has changed. Does reflection contribute to improvement in nursing practice and patient outcomes? The intersubjective nature of nursing and reflection is so strong that relationships, rather than individual functioning, might become the primary unit for reflection reflecting. In the geography of everyday life, reflection moves from the mountain tops to the everyday. This creates the potential to develop a new and potentially different reflection discourse. This construction provides a direction for developing new ways of speaking in and about practice.

description: The article investigates the economical efficiency of investments in higher education in modern conditions of Russia. The beginning of the article includes a characteristic of the existing empiric research concerning the efficiency of investments in human capital assets. Further the author of the article introduces the results of pay off calculation of private investments in higher education. The result of the research was that in modern conditions of Russia investments in higher education are exceedingly advantageous. High norms of higher education feedback and short period of pay off of these investments explain the reasons of continuously growing demand for it on the part of the population, especially young people. The article proves that the level of population education in Russia is quite high, however accumulated human capital asset is used insufficiently effective. Many people with higher education are forced to take jobs not requiring higher education.  Sharp shift in educational behavior of Russian people raises new demands to labor market. Graduates of higher educational institutions, appearing on a labor market, form qualitatively different demands towards it. But tempo of Russian economics development today can not provide job positions for all graduates of higher educational institutions. That is why structural change of economics is needed.
Decision-making factors related to a youth ice hockey coach during games: A case study.

Subjects: subject: Education, Educational Psychology.

description: The research study was part of an ongoing project on the cognitive aspect of coaching amateur ice hockey. The purpose of the current research study was to identify the decision-making factors that youth ice hockey coaches consider during games. A single case study was conducted with a coach involved with a Major PeeWee "AA" competitive hockey team. Data were obtained through one background interview, 12 game videotapes, and 12 stimulated-recall interview game transcripts. An inductive analysis of the transcripts indicated that over half of the actions (n = 144) took place when the coach talked to one or more players (n = 76) and that the main goal was to inform or give feedback to his players. In general, the most common factors considered by the coach were: player(s) performance on the ice, game score/outcome, time of game/time restraints, habits/history of team or player, game official(s) performance, and skill level of team/player(s). Contrary to what has been suggested in some decision-making process models, the coach in this study used many different factors other than just players' performance in his decisions.

description: This work deals with the development of autonomy in the education of the child and focuses on the analysis of empirical data collected in some services for children in North and South of Italy (Trento, Bologna, Caltagirone), through the administration of semi-structured interviews with educators of the nursery and kindergarten teachers. The returned responses were read in the light of the phenomenological paradigm that permitted to highlight two major kinds of considerations: the one refers to as "parents support and encourage the development of the autonomy of their child more in words than deeds"; the other to as the educators and teachers interviewed showed an explicit difficulty to attribute a clear meaning to the concept of adult autonomy. The incoming in this set of considerations first of all emphasize the important role of adult education and its path of reflexivity and growth.
description: Questo contributo affronta il tema dello sviluppo dell’autonomia nell’educazione del bambino e si focalizza sull’analisi dei dati empirici raccolti in alcuni servizi per l’infanzia del Nord e del Sud d’Italia (Trento, Bologna, Caltagirone), mediante la somministrazione di interviste semistrutturate alle educatrici del nido e alle insegnanti della scuola dell’infanzia. Le risposte restituite sono state lette alla luce del paradigma fenomenologico che ha permesso di evidenziare due rilevanti ordini di considerazioni: l’uno fa riferimento al dato che “i genitori appoggiano e favoriscono lo sviluppo dell’autonomia del proprio figlio più a parole che a fatti”; l’altro al dato che le educatrici e le insegnanti intervistate hanno mostrato una esplicita difficoltà ad attribuire un significato chiaro al concetto di autonomia adulta. L’approdo a questo insieme di considerazioni pone anzitutto in risalto l’importante funzione della formazione in età adulta e dei suoi percorsi di riflessività e di crescita.
Kinetic study and modelling of ethanol production from glucosexylose mixtures using the genetically-engineered strain Escherichia coli KO11

Subjects: subject: Engineering, Chemical.

description: Kinetics of ethanol fermentation on different synthetic glucose/xylose mixtures using Escherichia coli KO11 was studied. No substrate inhibition was observed in both glucose-only and xylose-only experiments. In single substrate fermentations, results show that glucose was the preferred substrate and its ethanol conversion rate was 1.5 times higher than the one obtained with xylose. In mixed-sugar fermentations, glucose was fully consumed significantly earlier than xylose, indicating an initial inhibition on xylose fermentation. The xylose consumption rate after the depletion of glucose significantly decreased with an increase in the initial glucose content. An unstructured kinetic model for ethanol production from glucose, xylose, and their mixtures using Escherichia coli KO11 was developed based on metabolic analysis. Ethanol inhibition and effect of pH were taken into account in the proposed model. Terms related to the inhibition on xylose metabolism by glucose were also included. Good agreement between model predictions and experimental data was obtained.
Exact enumeration approach to solving transient diffusion problems applied to drug delivery

Subjects: subject: Biophysics, Medical.

description: This is a study of drug delivery problems from hydrogels and it is mainly focused on the effects of the hydrogel's geometry on the behaviour of the release profile. Studying drug delivery also offers one the opportunity to delve into the physical mechanisms involved in the release process to better understand its theoretical implications. We can apply the well-developed theory of diffusion in order to understand many aspects of drug delivery. Thus, this thesis starts with a presentation of concepts and theories used in the following two articles (chapters). We go over the basic concept of drug delivery, followed by an introduction on diffusion. We then explain the ideas governing drug release and how we have modeled it. The tools used to generate our drug release platforms are presented followed by a discussion on characterizing the resulting drug release profiles. This thesis is presented as a series of two articles that have been submitted to peer-reviewed scientific journals. The first article presents a novel combinatorial technique used to obtain controlled drug delivery profiles. We use an exact enumeration diffusion model in order to obtain our drug release profiles and test its validity by comparing these results with analytical theory and widely used empirical tools. By using a genetic algorithm, we then show that it is possible to tailor the drug delivery platform in order to get a specific functional form of the release profile. The second article consists in testing two widely used empirical functions that are used in the literature to characterize drug release profiles. Several claims have been made regarding the interpretation of these functions and we have used our exact enumeration data to argue that although the functions fit the data relatively well on certain time scales, they do not necessarily convey reliable information about the mechanism of release. Finally, we conclude with preliminary work that was done on a second optimization technique to be used in controlling drug delivery profiles. The Metropolis simulated annealing was used to further optimize the design of the drug release platform and was shown to be quite effective, albeit being computationally demanding.

description: There is little doubt that students eagerly appropriate new technologies into their lives.  However, the authors wanted to explore what steps would be needed to ensure a proper appropriation of new technologies when applied to academic settings.  This paper presents a 3-country comparison of students reporting on their academic activities and technology use in everyday life. Though the numbers vary slightly within each country, the final results show an overall disconnect between the amount of time students allot to technology use and academic activities. Overall, the findings shed some much needed statistical light on the current reality of students’ technological and academic habits. The authors propose possible next steps to take in order to better understand this phenomenon. Ultimately, this study urges educators and students alike to gather more information about the role social media plays in students’ lives. A better understanding of the situation could eventually lead to the successful integration of new technologies in academia.
description: Non c'è dubbio che gli studenti abbiano adottato con passione le nuove tecnologie all’interno della loro vita. Tuttavia, gli autori hanno voluto esplorare quali passi sarebbero necessari per garantire un utilizzo adeguato delle tecnologie in ambito accademico. Questo articolo presenta un’indagine realizzata tra gli studenti in tre nazioni rispetto alle attività accademiche e all’uso delle tecnologie nella vita quotidiana. Anche se i numeri variano leggermente all'interno di ciascun paese, i risultati finali mostrano una differenza tra la quantità di tempo dedicato alle tecnologie e alle attività accademiche. Nel complesso, i risultati evidenziano un bisogno di maggiori dati sulla realtà attuale delle abitudini tecnologiche e accademiche degli studenti. Gli autori propongono una serie di possibili passi da compiere per comprendere meglio questo fenomeno. In definitiva, questo studio esorta educatori e studenti a raccogliere ulteriori informazioni sul ruolo che i social media hanno nella vita degli studenti. Una migliore comprensione della situazione potrebbe migliorare l'integrazione delle nuove tecnologie nel mondo accademico.

description: The study of complex process models often encounters challenges in terms of comprehensibility. This paper explores using modularization as a strategy to mitigate such challenges, notably the reduction in complexity. Previous research has delved into the comprehensibility of modularized process models, yet an unresolved question about the cognitive factors at play during their comprehension still needs to be answered. Addressing the latter, the paper presents findings from an innovative study combining eye-tracking and concurrent think-aloud techniques involving 25 participants. The study aimed to comprehend how individuals comprehend process models when presented in three different modular formats: flattened process models, models with grouped elements, and models with subprocesses. The results shed light on varying comprehension strategies employed by participants when navigating through these modularized process models. The paper concludes by suggesting avenues for future research guided by these insights.

description: The inheritance of pigmentation patterns in domestic animals is often determined by one or several genes with large effects that, in some instances, can interact through epistasis or other complex mechanisms. The genomic architecture of the black/brown color of Murciano-Granadina goats has not been investigated yet at the genome-wide level, although one candidate gene study reported the involvement of the MC1R gene. Herewith, we have carried out a genome-wide association study comprising 529 Murciano-Granadina goats with available coat color records and Goat SNP50 BeadChip genotypes. Statistical analysis of the data with the GEMMA software revealed a strong association between a chromosome 18 region containing the MC1R gene and coat color (q-value = 2.03 × 10-18). This result is consistent with previous data and demonstrates that the inheritance of coat color in Murciano-Granadina goats is very simple, being determined by a single locus. Sequencing of the MC1R coding region and genotyping experiments evidenced that the c.801C>G (p.Cys267Trp) polymorphism tightly segregates with coat color, a result concordant with that generated in the aforementioned candidate gene study. In contrast with other pigmentation phenotypes, such as white spotting in cattle or pink coloring in goats, which are determined by several loci, our results clearly demonstrate that the inheritance of coat color in Murciano-Granadina goats is essentially monogenic.

description: Objectives were to improve conceptualization of associations between built environment characteristics (BECs) and walking, synthesize evidence on associations, and propose future research that addresses limitations in existing studies. I designed a conceptual framework of hypothesized BEC - walking associations. I conducted a systematic review, searching MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO, and TRID for studies investigating BEC - walking associations. Two reviewers screened articles for inclusion. I assessed methodological quality and extracted data from included studies. I used the framework’s hypothesized associations to categorize and synthesize results, then analyzed study limitations and proposed future research that would address many limitations. The review identified 13 studies with 64 estimates that met all criteria. None of the framework’s hypothesized associations had a statistically significant majority of estimates that were statistically significant. Evidence is lacking on BEC – walking associations and more research is needed that addresses methodological issues such as heterogeneous BEC measures and geographic homogeneity.

description: This article is the second of three written on the topic of Quebec psychoeducation. The first article introduces the historical and theoretical foundations of psychoeducation, while the purpose of this second article is to present the models and methodology behind psychoeducational practice. Psychoeducative care and treatment as a specialized form of intervention which, in order to help a person struggling with social adjustment disorders. To reach such goals, the psychoeducator adopts the principles of the Psychoeducational Intervention Method to create a re-education program. The Psychoeducational Intervention Method is comprised of eight Professional Processes adopted by all psychoeducators and used in conjunction with the Structural Psychoeducative Model.  The eight processes and model shall later be described in detail and illustrated by means of a concrete example that shows how psychoeducative intervention is programmed.
description: Questo articolo è il secondo di tre scritti sul tema della psicoeducazione in Quebec. Il primo articolo introduce i fondamenti storici e teorici della psicoeducazione, lo scopo di questo secondo articolo è di presentare i modelli e la metodologia di intervento che stanno alla base della pratica psicoeducativa. Cura e trattamento psicoeducativo sono qui intesi come una forma specializzata di intervento che ha lo scopo di aiutare una persona alle prese con disturbi di adattamento sociale. Per raggiungere tale obiettivo, lo psicoeducatore adotta i principi del Metodo di Intervento Psicoeducativo in base a cui definisce un programma di rieducazione. Il Metodo di Intervento Psicoeducativo è composto da otto processi professionali adottati da tutti gli psicoeducatori e utilizzati in combinazione con il modello strutturale psicoeducativo. Gli otto processi e il modello sono qui descritti in dettaglio e illustrati mediante un esempio concreto che dimostra come viene programmato l'intervento psicoeducativo.

Subjects: subject: Health Sciences, Medicine and Surgery.

description: Study aim and objectives. The aim of this analysis is to identify and describe the relationship of factors associated with pressure ulcers, Stage 2 or greater, in adults in acute care hospitals. The objectives are: (1) to develop a model to describe the association of demographic and clinical factors in the presence of pressure ulcers using three years of prevalence data (1993, 1994 & 1995); and (2) sample, namely the 1996 prevalence study. Design. Cross-sectional, prevalence studies. Subjects. All adult inpatients in an acute care, university teaching hospital during one 12 hour day time period. Data were collected mid-week to reflect new admissions, and pre and post-operative cases, and in mid-September to avoid summer and winter seasonal variations. Main outcome measure. Stage 2 or greater pressure ulcers according to the Agency for Health Care Policy and Research Clinical Practice Guidelines, Pressure Ulcers in Adults: Prediction and Prevention (1992) recommendations for staging ulcers. Data collection instruments. Demographic and Clinical Profile Form, Prevalence Grid, and Braden Scale (1987). Sample size. The derivation sample, 1993--95 prevalence studies, included 1,992 subjects and the validation sample, 1996 prevalence study, included 581 subjects. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

description: This paper investigates an episode of interaction in a mental health residential centre in Italy, where a resident and a staff member manage a relational problem. The episode leads to an apparently paradoxical outcome: in spite of the fact that the resident has sought the staff members’ cooperation to make sense of the relational problem, she ends up being blamed for that problem. Adopting the approach of conversation analysis, the paper shows that this outcome is the result of the transition from a relational view, to a one-sided view of the problem. The practices employed to accomplish this transition reflect a set of contrasting concerns and goals, which the participants bring to bear on the interaction. Reflection about these aspects can sensitize the public to some of the intricacies and challenges entailed in the delivery of mental health residential treatment.
description: Questo articolo esplora un episodio di interazione avvenuto in una comunità psichiatrica, in cui una ospite e un membro dello staff gestiscono un problema relazionale. L’episodio conduce a un esito apparentemente paradossale: malgrado l’ospite abbia cercato la collaborazione dello staff per comprendere la natura del problema, alla fine viene incolpata per aver generato il problema stesso. Adottando l’approccio dell’analisi della conversazione, l’articolo mostra come questo esito sia il prodotto della transizione da una visione relazionale ad una visione unilaterale del problema. Le pratiche impiegate per compiere questa transizione riflettono un insieme di preoccupazioni e di obiettivi contrastanti, manifestati dai partecipanti nel corso dell’interazione. La riflessione su questi aspetti può sensibilizzare il pubblico alle difficoltà e ai dilemmi implicati nel trattamento psichiatrico residenziale.

description: Recommendation level satisfaction is considered to be a lower level construct of the brand loyalty and perceived quality dimensions of brand equity as alluded to by Aaker (1991). This paper examines the relationship between 548 Master of Business students’ demographics, cultural values and their satisfaction levels with their course experience, course selection and their willingness to recommend their current course to others. The measures used are: Robertson and Hoffman’s (2000) Cultural Values Scale derived from Hofstede’s (1980; 1991; 1998) framework; and a course recommendation level satisfaction measure developed from Netemeyer, Krishnan, Pullig, Wang, Yagci, Dean, Ricks and Wirth’s (2004) instrument. A major finding is that Course Recommendation level Satisfaction is predicted by high Collectivism and Uncertainty Avoidance cultural values and participant’s age.

description: Background: Polyarteritis nodosa is a small vessel to medium vessel vasculitis that frequently presents with multi-organ involvement, but can sometimes be limited to single organs such as the testes. Patients often require treatment with glucocorticoids, plus or minus additional immunosuppressive therapy depending on the severity of the disease. We describe a rare case of polyarteritis nodosa involving the right testis and urinary bladder without other systemic features of vasculitis. Case presentation: A previously healthy 54-year-old First Nations Canadian man presented with intermittent gross hematuria. He underwent surgical excision of his right testis for cryptorchidism and a transurethral resection of a bladder mass. Histology showed an active medium vessel vasculitis in both organs. On extensive clinical, laboratory, and radiographic review, he had no systemic features of vasculitis. On 2-year follow-up, he has not required any systemic therapy and has not developed further symptoms. Conclusion: Single organ polyarteritis nodosa can sometimes be managed with surgical excision of the involved organ alone. Although our patient had two organs involved, we extrapolated the results of our literature search to guide his care. This case highlights the potential for surgical excision to cure polyarteritis nodosa despite the involvement of two organs in the absence of symptoms and signs of systemic vasculitis.
