Fostering student self-assessment confidence and skill
Creators: name: Keen, Noreen A.
Publisher: name: Vancouver Island University - Royal Roads University
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Self-confidence

description: The present study was created to develop students’ confidence (self-efficacy) and skill (expertise) to self-assess their own writing. The literature suggested that the self-assessment process is designed to enable students to understand and apply quality criteria to their work (Harris & Brown, 2013). Student engagement is vital to the student’s learning at any grade level K through 12 (Handley & Williams, 2011; McMillan & Hearn 2008; Orsmond et al., 2002). Student self-assessment is directly related to intrinsic student motivation and purposeful learning (McMillan & Hearn, 2008). A class of Grade 4 and 5 students participated in an instructional self-assessment unit to improve both confidence and skill. Instructional qualitative rubrics were introduced as the format of the self-assessment. The students completed a survey regarding self-assessment confidence and skill before and after the instructional unit. As the teacher, I completed the instruction, teaching the writing process write, assess, goal set, edit and revise. The writing process was practiced three times. My hypothesis was that the students would rate their confidence and skill levels higher after the implementation of an instructional self-assessment unit. Overall, the results of the pre-and post-surveys indicated that the instructional self-assessment unit was successful. The data concluded that both skill and confidence regarding self-assessment improved. Further research and surveys are encouraged to further support the theory that confidence and skill levels regarding self-assessment can be developed through a reflective creative writing unit.

description: The atmospheric characterization of resolved brown dwarf companions are unique observational treasures as they help tell a story of giant planet formation and evolution far from a given star (>>10 AU). Brown dwarfs have better quality data than exoplanets and are ideal objects to test and verify models and atmospheric retrieval techniques. More yet, retrieving the bulk properties of brown dwarf atmospheres in comparison to their host stars can provide insights into formation mechanisms. The recently discovered, L6-L8 planetary-mass companion, BD+60 1417 B (15± 5 M_Jup), lies at a separation of >1000 AU from its K0 host star and has an age of 50 -150 Myr. The companion is one of the reddest known L dwarfs. I aim to use the atmospheric retrieval code, Brewster, to explore the cloud properties for this source as well as robustly decouple temperature, gravity, and composition to derive gas abundances and ultimately estimate bulk composition ratios such as C/O to directly compare to the composition of the primary. I will present initial findings for this work to probe possible formation routes (e.g. core accretion, gravitational or turbulent disk fragmentation) for the companion

Anxiety in the classroom: a growing concern
Creators: name: Meredith, Kelli F.
Publisher: name: Vancouver Island University - Royal Roads University
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Anxiety

description: This research design has been developed with current literature in mind, around the topics of anxiety and mental health for school aged children and youth. Autoethnography was used in conjunction with a thorough review of literature, in order to connect my own personal experiences growing up with anxiety and mental illness, to the broader culture. The primary objective of this design project and research study was to engage both learners and educators in discussion around mental illness. Utilizing my past stories, in the form of a wordless picture book, along with a resource guide for educators to use with learners, was the way in which I hoped to meet this objective. The literature around child and youth mental health is very clear. Anxiety and mental illness is a growing concern in our classrooms, school communities, and society in general (Thompson, Robertson, Curtis & Frick, 2013). In British Columbia, with our most recent curriculum implementation in 2017, the Ministry of Education has placed a significant importance on the topic of mental health, beginning in Kindergarten and continuing through to graduation. Although mental health and wellness is now woven throughout our curriculum in British Columbia, this does not mean that educators feel equipped to present this information, or even engage in discussions around this topic, with their learners. My hope with this research design project was to build upon the current dialogue around anxiety and mental health within our school communities. As educators, we need a place to begin. A tangible starting point can help diminish the hesitancy and lack of confidence when broaching a new topic with learners. This design project was intended to be just that; one small stepping stone on the path to better understand, recognize, and support those who struggle with mental illness within our classrooms.

description: Diffuse radio emission in the form of radio halos and relics has been found in a number of merging galaxy clusters. These structures indicate that shock and turbulence associated with the merger accelerate electrons to relativistic energies. We report the discovery of a radio relic + radio halo system in PSZ1 G108.18-11.53 (z=0.335). This cluster hosts the second most powerful double radio relic system ever discovered. We observed PSZ1 G108.18-11.53 with the Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope (GMRT) and the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT). We obtained radio maps at 147, 323, 607 and 1380 MHz. We also observed the cluster with the Keck telescope, obtaining the spectroscopic redshift for 42 cluster members. From the injection index we obtained the Mach number of the shocks generating the two radio relics. For the southern shock we found M = 2.33^{+0.19}_{-0.26}, while the northern shock Mach number goes from M = 2.20^{+0.07}_{-0.14} in the north part down to M = 2.00^{+0.03}_{-0.08} in the southern region. If the relation between the injection index and the Mach number predicted by diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) theory holds, this is the first observational evidence for a gradient in the Mach number along a galaxy cluster merger shock.

Student engagement in the mathematics classroom through inquiry-based learning

Publisher: name: Vancouver Island University - Royal Roads University
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Inquiry-based learning
subject: Mathematics
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: The purpose of this research project is to explore an effective and engaging mathematics instructional method for teachers of Punjab that could foster a growth mindset, grit, problem solving skills, and critical thinking in the students. These qualities cannot be achieved by using traditional methods of teaching mathematics, which I have experienced during my studies in India, where the teacher is considered the only source of knowledge and children are seen as empty boxes to fill with abstract facts. However, now all the developed countries are giving more emphasis on student-centric approach of learning. The new BC curriculum integrates mathematics as a part of everyday life and sees students as active participants in the learning process. By learning mathematics, students learn to analyze a problem and then consider the solution and evaluate its effectiveness. The inquiry-based learning method provides a personalized and flexible learning environment for students of the 21st century. I prepared a series of workshops for teachers. The intent of these workshops is to introduce teachers of my home country to inquiry-based learning. The inquiry-based learning model engages students effectively in the mathematics classroom.

description: We demonstrate laser-plasma acceleration of high charge electron beams to the ~10 MeV scale using ultrashort laser pulses with as little energy as 10 mJ. This result is made possible by an extremely dense and thin hydrogen gas jet. Total charge up to ~0.5 nC is measured for energies >1 MeV. Acceleration is correlated to the presence of a relativistically self-focused laser filament accompanied by an intense coherent broadband light flash, associated with wavebreaking, which can radiate more than ~3% of the laser energy in a sub-femtosecond bandwidth consistent with half-cycle optical emission. Our results enable truly portable applications of laser-driven acceleration, such as low dose radiography, ultrafast probing of matter, and isotope production.
Digital transformation and crafts: How is the profession of the carpenter changing due to modern joinery robots?
Creators: name: Schwarzmann, Wolfgang
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023
Subjects: changing craft, carpenter knowledge, digital transformation, robotic fabrication

description: Abstract: The craft of carpentry is in a constant process of change. This dissertation focuses on the changing work processes between carpenters and joinery robots. These CNC-controlled machines open up enormous potential in terms of production speed, precision and the complexity of structural elements. At the same time, this technological evolution means a change for habitual methods and craft traditions. Previous process flows are changing in favour of the new, digital tools. Knowledge and proven practices that were previously central to the carpenter’s education and profession are now being reprioritised. The question some craftspeople may ask themselves is where their own role is now to be found; what is the necessity of carpenters in the process? In the context of this thesis, (1) the ‘former’ profession of carpenters is outlined, (2) a picture of the contemporary work involving joinery robots is drawn, (3) the question of manual labour in the process is discussed, and finally (4) an extended understanding of the interaction between humans and machines is elaborated. The individual papers then answer questions such as how historical techniques can add value to the digital manufacturing process (P I.), what specific role an individual carpenter might have in this process (P II.), and how previously unprofitable construction principles can add a new, regional value through joinery robots (P III.). Finally, a comparison (P IV.) is used to discuss further technological developments in the sector

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: Controlling the flow of spin and charge currents in topological insulators (TIs) is a crucial requirement for applications in quantum computation and spin electronics. We demonstrate that such control can be established in nanoscopic two-dimensional TIs by breaking their time reversal symmetry via magnetic defects. This allows for the creation of nearly fully spin-polarized charge currents, and the design of highly tunable spin diodes. Similar effects can also be realized in mesoscale hybrid structures in which TIs interface with ferro- or antiferromagnets.
The commercialization of tertiary education in India: challenges and strategies for educational leadership

Subjects: subject: Educational leadership--India

description: This project work explores the challenges of the commercialization of tertiary education in India. Several years ago, some philanthropists started private institutes in order to provide free education to needy children. Nowadays, however, the motive of Indian private institutes has changed into monetary purposes. Commercialization in higher studies contradicts “Education for all” by allowing only the financially able people to get an education. Tertiary education becoming beyond the reach of many common students is the driving force for this research project. I hope this handbook will act as an eye opener for school administrators, government executives and policy makers. I believe this guide will (a) reveal some harsh impacts and consequences of commercialization in Indian education and (b) present purposed strategies that will create an environment to curb the menace of commercialization.

Successfully navigating between two worlds: exploring the dual role of the teaching vice principal at the elementary school level
Creators: name: Fowler, Heidi
Publisher: name: Vancouver Island University - Royal Roads University
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Elementary school principals

description: This qualitative study explores the role of the elementary teaching vice principal in public schools in the Canadian province of British Columbia. This thesis seeks to explore the role of the elementary teaching vice principal and uncover how one successfully navigates between the two distinct roles of classroom teacher and school administrator. By interviewing nine elementary teaching vice principals in three different school districts around BC, several themes emerged as to how to effectively be both a teacher and a vice principal at the same time. The interviews were conducted through a phenomenological exploration using an appreciative inquiry lens. Three key themes emerged on how to successfully navigate the dual role of the elementary teaching vice principal: 1. Be a strong teacher leader 2. Foster a positive, collaborative working relationship with the principal 3. Utilize support networks and mentors Through the voices of the vice principals interviewed, we will hear how having a strong, reflective teaching practice, taking on leadership opportunities before becoming a vice principal, building a harmonious and collaborative working relationship with your principal, and having supportive professional enrichment from the school district, mentors and colleagues, all contributed to successfully navigating the dual role of vice principal and teacher. Though this paper looks to build on the strengths of what is going well, it also comes with some observations and recommendations on how to improve the capacity for educational leadership in elementary school vice principals.

description: In this paper, we study massive gravity in the presence of Born-Infeld nonlinear electrodynamics. First, we obtain metric function related to this gravity and investigate the geometry of the solutions and find that there is an essential singularity at the origin ($r=0$). It will be shown that due to contribution of the massive part, the number, types and places of horizons may be changed. Next, we calculate the conserved and thermodynamic quantities and check the validation of the first law of thermodynamics. We also investigate thermal stability of these black holes in context of canonical ensemble. It will be shown that number, type and place of phase transition points are functions of different parameters which lead to dependency of stability conditions to these parameters. Also, it will be shown how the behavior of temperature is modified due to extension of massive gravity and strong nonlinearity parameter. Next, critical behavior of the system in extended phase space by considering cosmological constant as pressure is investigated. A study regarding neutral Einstein-massive gravity in context of extended phase space is done. Geometrical approach is employed to study the thermodynamical behavior of the system in context of heat capacity and extended phase space. It will be shown that GTs, heat capacity and extended phase space have consistent results. Finally, critical behavior of the system is investigated through use of another method. It will be pointed out that the results of this method is in agreement with other methods and follow the concepts of ordinary thermodynamics.

description: This research project aims to create more powerful and engaged teachers for public schools in India. To achieve this aim, a Professional Development Course for the teachers and principals was prepared to explore the role of a leader in a distributed leadership setting. I did extensive research in the field of distributive leadership and hence based my model of distributive leadership on that research. My own experiences as a high school teacher, and facing the challenges of not being able to exercise my chain of thoughts freely due to limited access to resources, and being in a conventional leadership environment where only principal was the boss led me to work on the concept of distributive leadership. This is an attempt to break through the conventional leadership styles in Indian schools and bringing teachers to the forefront as well. With the implementation of my distributive leadership model in Indian schools, I believe to achieve a new leadership style in schools across India and building healthy environments of professional and collaborative learning.

description: We study the impact on electroweak baryogenesis from a swifter cosmological expansion induced by dark matter. We detail the experimental bounds that one can place on models that realize it, and we investigate the modifications of these bounds that result from a non-standard cosmological history. The modifications can be sizeable if the expansion rate of the Universe increases by several orders of magnitude. We illustrate the impact through the example of scalar field dark matter, which can alter the cosmological history enough to enable a strong-enough first-order phase transition in the Standard Model when it is supplemented by a dimension six operator directly modifying the Higgs boson potential. We show that due to the modified cosmological history, electroweak baryogenesis can be realized, while keeping deviations of the triple Higgs coupling below HL-LHC sensitivies. The required scale of new physics to effectuate a strong-enough first order phase transition can change by as much as twenty percent as the expansion rate increases by six orders of magnitude.

description: We present an integral field spectroscopic study of radiative shocks in 27 nearby ultraluminous and luminous infrared galaxies (U/LIRGs) from the Great Observatory All-sky LIRG Survey, a subset of the Revised Bright Galaxy Sample. Our analysis of the resolved spectroscopic data from the Wide Field Spectrograph (WiFeS) focuses on determining the detailed properties of the emission line gas, including a careful treatment of multi- component emission line profiles. The resulting information obtained from the spectral fits are used to map the kinematics of the gas, sources of ionizing radiation and feedback present in each system. The resulting properties are tracked as a function of merger stage. Using emission line flux ratios and velocity dispersions, we find evidence for widespread, extended shock excitation in many local U/LIRGs. These low-velocity shocks become an increasingly important component of the optical emission lines as a merger progresses. We find that shocks may account for as much as half of the Hα luminosity in the latest-stage mergers in our sample. We discuss some possible implications of our result and consider the presence and effects of AGN on the spectra in our sample.

Publisher: name: Vancouver Island University - Royal Roads University
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Teacher-administrator relationships

description: This study reflects some theoretical aspects of interpersonal relationships in the sphere of education. It highlights the presence of mutual understanding and the importance of common cognitive identification of the subjects of interaction with each other in interpersonal relationships. The purpose of the study was to identify as well as describe the importance of the gaps and circumstances that may affect administrator-teacher relationships. In particular, the study aimed to highlight the idea of building and sustaining teacher-administrator relationships. The study is an effort to understand the reciprocal nature of interpersonal relationships, mutual contribution, and collaboration of those involved in relationships; sustaining and prioritizing the value of ethics of care for the relationship is at the core of this study. A workshop was constructed based on a five-step model to emphasize the importance of the teacher-administrator relationship in schools.

Can self-presentation serve as fluid compensation for psychological threat? (lab)
Creators: name: Luke, Timothy

Publisher: name: Open Science Framework
Year: 2022

description: Cognitive Dissonance Theory (Festinger, 1957) is currently enjoying a second act as the conceptual foundation for an integrative theory of psychological threat (e.g., Hart et al., 2014; Jonas et al., 2014). As part of this broader approach, researchers are looking to explore the range of threat compensation (i.e., dissonance reduction) strategies that people employ in more authentic social situations. Motivated by previous work on goal pursuit (e.g., Carver & Scheier, 1998; see Jonas, et al., 2014) deception (e.g., DePaulo, 2004; DePaulo et al., 2003) and self-presentation (e.g., Schlenker, 2012), we will seek to determine if a form of strategic self-presentation called "pro-social lying" (i.e., deceptive behavior intended to bolster or maintain social relationships) can act as a threat compensation strategy. We will put people under threat by having them read a high-quality belief-threatening essay; we will then measure their negative affect, interactions with another person, and attitudes regarding the essay’s author. By manipulating combinations of these factors we hope to determine the viability of strategic self-presentation as a threat-compensation strategy, and by way of this specific question, also reveal the broader psychological processes at work in these situations. This study is laboratory based and uses undergraduate students as subjects. Participants are compensated with course credit. In this study, participants are provided with two different opportunities to compensate for belief threat: (1) they are given the opportunity to evaluate the essay that threatened their beliefs and its author and (2) they are given an opportunity to interact with a person in a mildly tense social situation in which many responses are possible. Data collection for this study began in late August, 2015.
