Community colleges

description: Each year, community colleges, schools, and community organizations offer basic skills instruction to more than 2.5 million adults with limited skills and education. Such programs include Adult Basic Education (ABE) and GED preparation programs for individuals who do not have a high school credential and English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) programs for persons with limited proficiency in English. Yet few of these students advance successfully to college-level education and training, even when they attend a basic skills program offered by a community college. Not doing so limits the potential of these individuals to secure jobs that pay family-supporting wages and that offer opportunities for career advancement. Integrated Basic Education and Skills Training, or I-BEST, is an innovative program created to address this problem. First piloted in 2004-05, I-BEST was developed by the community and technical colleges in Washington State to increase the rate at which adult basic skills students enter and succeed in postsecondary occupational education and training. Under the I-BEST model, basic skills instructors and career-technical faculty jointly design and teach college-level occupational, or what in Washington State are called "workforce," courses for adult basic skills students. Instruction in basic skills is thereby integrated with instruction in college-level career-technical skills. This model challenges the conventional notion that basic skills instruction should be completed by students prior to starting college-level courses. The approach thus offers the potential to accelerate the transition of adult basic skills students into college programs. This Brief, which summarizes a longer paper, presents findings from a CCRC study that investigated the outcomes of students who participated in the program. The study compared, over a two-year tracking period, the educational outcomes of I-BEST students with those of other basic skills students, including students who comprised a particularly apt comparison group — those non-I-BEST basic skills students who nonetheless enrolled in at least one workforce course in academic year 2006-07, the period of enrollment examined in the study. The analyses controlled for observed differences in background characteristics and enrollment patterns of students in the sample. We examined data on more than 31,000 basic skills students in Washington State, including nearly 900 I-BEST participants.

description: Project- and Problem-Based Learning has been subject to research and implementation in engineering and computer science curricula for about the last 20 years. However, the projects and problems focused on in education have hardly been questioned for their relevance and effect. Considering current global and financial challenges, the authors propose to revise project- and problem-based approaches in education in the context of relevance and excellence in applied research. Besides coping with current cost-cutting, existing control mechanisms could ensure both relevance and excellence. Example projects based on more than 10 years of hands-on experience in Project-Based Learning in the context of externally funded research, for various classroom situations are included.

description: Uncertainty relations capture the essence of the inevitable randomness associated with the outcomes of two incompatible quantum measurements. Recently, Berta et al. have shown that the lower bound on the uncertainties of the measurement outcomes depends on the correlations between the observed system and an observer who possesses a quantum memory. If the system is maximally entangled with its memory, the outcomes of two incompatible measurements made on the system can be predicted precisely. Here, we obtain a new uncertainty relation that tightens the lower bound of Berta et al., by incorporating an additional term that depends on the quantum discord and the classical correlations of the joint state of the observed system and the quantum memory. We discuss several examples of states for which our new lower bound is tighter than the bound of Berta et al. On the application side, we discuss the relevance of our new inequality for the security of quantum key distribution and show that it can be used to provide bounds on the distillable common randomness and the entanglement of formation of bipartite quantum states.

Educational evaluation

description: The goal of this study is to determine the institutional characteristics that affect the success of community college students as measured by the individual student probability of completing a certificate or degree or transferring to a baccalaureate institution. While there is extensive research on the institutional determinants of educational outcomes for K-12 education and a growing literature on this topic for baccalaureate institutions, few researchers have attempted to address the issue for community colleges. Using individual level data from the National Education Longitudinal Study of 1988 (NELS:88) and institutional level data from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS), we address two methodological challenges associated with research on community college students: unobserved institutional effects and attendance at multiple institutions. The most consistent results across specifications are the negative relationship between individual success and larger institutional size, and the proportion of part-time faculty and minority students.

 Fig. 28 Helix (Cochlicelle) hannensis: Rang 1831:41, pl.3, fig.8 (Cape Verde peninsula,WestAfrica;4–5 × 1.5–2 mm).
 One of the most common and widespread (mostly through introduction) tropical species; found at one station inland. This is apparently the first record of this species from eastern Africa. The illustrated shell is almost the same in size and proportions as Opeas araeum Connolly, 1923: 652, pl. 19, fig. 35 (type: 5.3× 1.8 mm from Kenya), which is possibly a synonym of hannense. Can be easily separated from the two other small subulinids in the area by the narrow but decisively open umbilicus.

Community colleges

description: Whether graduation rates accurately reflect community colleges' performance and the effectiveness of their policies, programs, and practices is sharply debated. College faculty, administrators, and supporters present four general reasons why the rates are misleading. First, many of the economic, social, and academic problems that confront community college students and thwart their retention and graduation are beyond the control of the colleges. Second, the Student Right-to-Know (SRK) institutional graduation rate, which all colleges are required to report to the Department of Education, is said to present a biased picture of college performance. Third, the fact that short-term occupational certificates and baccalaureate transfers are important components of community college completion complicate efforts to measure community college "graduation" rates. Fourth, many community college students are pursuing goals other than degrees. This Brief summarizes a Community College Research Center (CCRC) study primarily concerned with the last criticism. (Other CCRC publications address the other three criticisms.) Using national data, the study analyzed the extent to which community college students' reasons for enrolling and their educational goals and expectations influenced students' outcomes. Based on the findings, we present suggestions for how colleges should approach student goals and aspirations in seeking to improve student success.

description: The use of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) expands in industrial domains, which makes ensuring the security of Industrial Control Systems (ICSs) become paramount. The OpenPLC project, the first open-source initiative, provides flexible and cost-effective PLC solutions to build up affordable test-beds, as well as conduct experiments and academic researches. This project has wildly grown in the last few years, thus it is essential to address the most emerging security challenges it encounters. This paper introduces a new OpenPLC architecture, called OpenPLC Aqua, provided with a set of security solutions designed specifically to overcome the vulnerabilities that the current OpenPLC versions are prone to. The new OpenPLC architecture includes four security features: 1) user credentials encryption, securing the Webserver, Whitelisting and secure SSL/TLS communication channel. The OpenPLC Aqua software was tested against several attack scenarios that were feasible against the old OpenPLC versions. Our experimental results showed our enhanced OpenPLC software is secure and resistant against several attack scenarios e.g., authentication, injection, Man-in-the- Middle and replay attacks. The OpenPLC Aqua is publicly available and a proof of concept demo is also published with this paper.

description: Performance funding is a method of funding public institutions based not on inputs, such as enrollments, but on outcomes, such as retention, degree completion, and job placement. The principal rationale for performance funding has been that performance funding will prod institutions to be more effective and efficient, particularly in a time of increasing demands on higher education and increasingly straitened state finances. Critics of performance funding have warned that it could potentially provide state officials with an excuse to cut back on the regular state funding of higher education and at the same time provide college officials with an incentive to raise their retention and graduation rates by becoming more selective in their admissions. This report examines in detail the origins of state performance funding in six states: Florida, Illinois, Missouri, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Washington. These states were chosen for analysis because they have considerably different state performance funding systems and histories as well as higher education governance arrangements, political systems, political cultures, and social characteristics—all of which enables the authors to look at the formation of state performance funding systems from a wide variety of angles. Interestingly, analysis reveals that there are striking similarities among these six states, particularly in terms of who were the main supporters and opponents, what beliefs animated them, and what political openings allowed policy entrepreneurs to put performance funding on the decision making agendas of state governments. This analysis yields some important lessons for policymakers, which are discussed at the conclusion of this paper.

description: We present a corpus of memes and their textual components that were acquired from the popular meme platform r\memes, a subreddit of Reddit and one of the major outlets of online meme culture. The corpus consists of the most popular memes from 2013-2021 on the platform and we acquired 11,701 memes and 280,351 text tokens. We conduct several case studies focused on diachronic analysis to highlight the possibilities of the corpus for research in internet studies and online culture. We examine the general activity on the platform throughout the years and identify a significant increase in meme production beginning 2017. Results of sentiment analysis show a tendency towards memes with positively classified texts. The analysis of most frequent words per half-year spotlights the importance of certain cultural events for meme culture (e.g. the 2016 US election). Using the LIWC to analyze swear and sexual words shows an overall decrease in the usage of these words pointing to an increased moderation of the platform. The corpus is publicly available for the research community for further studies.

description: Rent burden is defined as spending more than 30 percent of household income on rent. In 2009, more than half of renter-occupied households with children (54 percent) experienced rent burden. Between 2002 and 2009, the proportion of households with children affected by rent burden increased significantly. Although rates of rent burden had remained relatively stable for several years between 2002 and 2006, they began to increase from 2006 to 2009. With the majority of renter-occupied households with children spending a large proportion of their incomes on housing, this issue has important implications for children's well-being. For low-income families (family income under 200 percent of federal poverty threshold), who are more likely than more affluent families to rent than own housing and have fewer resources available to devote to rent, the experience of rent burden is particularly acute. Nearly 80 percent of lowincome households with children spend more than 30 percent of their income on rent. Other types of housing problems that low-income families face include crowded housing or inadequate housing due to physical conditions of buildings such as lack of complete plumbing for exclusive use, unvented heaters as the primary heating equipment, water leakage, open cracks or holes, or rodents. However, compared with rent burden, a relatively small proportion of households with children experience these issues. That is, about five to six percent of all households with children and about 11 to 14 percent of very low-income families (families with income less than 50 percent of the median income for the geographical area in which they lived) experience at least one of these problems. Thus, the current housing problem that affects the majority of households with children is rent burden.

description: To understand the Great War, one has to understand weapons. Weapons are linked to bodies, to attacks on bodily integrity, to suffering. Hand weapons form an extension of the body while at the same time determining its range of movement. Handling weapons – their feel, their weight – opens up a range of sensory experiences, as well as affective ones. By studying weapons, one gets closer to comprehending soldiers and their mental world. In short - weapons are far more than just the tools of combat.

description: Historically, scholars largely disregarded China’s First World War involvement, since the country did not formally declare war until August 1917. I argue that we must re-examine the issue to understand both Chinese and world history. First, the Chinese seized the opportunity to attain higher status worldwide by sending labourers to assist the Allies; second, they sought to use the war to move China out of the colonial into the international system; third, they realized that achieving nation-state status was essential after the Peace Conference’s unequal resolution. From internationalism through self-determinism to nationalism, China’s position shifted with regard to World War I.

description: The splashing of a drop impacting onto a liquid pool produces a range of different sized micro-droplets. At high impact velocities, the most significant source of these droplets is a thin liquid jet emerging at the start of the impact from the neck that connects the drop to the pool. We use ultra-high-speed video imaging in combination with high-resolution numerical simulations to show how the ejecta gives way to irregular splashing. At higher Reynolds number, its base becomes unstable, shedding vortex rings into the liquid from the free surface in an axisymmetric von Kármán vortex street, thus breaking the ejecta sheet as it forms.

description: In recent years the nation's health care system has accelerated the development and implementation of a new model of patient care -- the medical home. States, insurers, health care delivery systems, and individual practices are increasingly exploring ways to leverage medical homes to improve the quality of care and limit increases in health care costs. This Thrive report describes the current status of the medical home concept and explains how it has been broadly defined, applied to children, and measured. It also reports on the number and characteristics of American children served by medical homes and discusses opportunities to further leverage medical homes to improve medical care and achieve better health outcomes for young children, with a particular focus on the coordination of care for vulnerable children. The medical home concept builds on the foundations of primary care and managed care. Though the model is increasingly being recommended for all people, medical home implementation often prioritizes the goal of improving the quality and management of care for individuals with chronic disease or other critical health-impacting factors. Originally conceived by pediatricians over four decades ago, the medical home concept has become much more visible recently, particularly within the context of health care reform. The development of the medical home model of primary care can be traced back to the 1960s, but not until the 1990s did the advent of managed care prompt more focused exploration of potential payment models that could support broader implementation of medical homes. As a result, recent years have seen a high degree of activity around the definition, accreditation, and reimbursement of medical homes.

description: We investigate the scalar perturbations in an AdS soliton background coupled to a Maxwell field via marginally stable modes. In the probe limit, we study the magnetic field effect on the holographic insulator/superconductor phase transition numerically and analytically. The condensate will be localized in a finite circular region for any finite constant magnetic field. Near the critical point, we find that there exists a simple relation among the critical chemical potential, magnetic field, the charge and mass of the scalar field. This relation indicates that the presence of the magnetic field causes the phase transition hard.

description: In many machine learning (ML) applications, the provision of data and the training as well as the analysis of machine learning systems are performed by distinct actors, a data owner and a data consumer. To protect sensitive information in these ML-scenarios, privacy aware machine learning (PAML) methods are often applied to the data before sharing. Based on the type of PAML methods used, data understanding and preparation as defined in the CRISP-DM model become more difficult if not impossible. To enable these steps, we propose a method to share a variety of uncritical information with the data consumer who is then able to define the necessary processing steps on a meta-level. These are then applied to the data in the data owners local trusted environment before the PAML-methods whereupon the prepared and protected data is shared.

The Religious and Political Dynamics of Jamiat Ahle-Hadith in Pakistan
Creators: name: Ali, Bizaa Zeynab
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2010
Subjects: Islamic civilization
Islam--Customs and practices

description: This paper focuses on the religious and political dynamics of the Markazi Jamiat Ahle Hadith (JAH) in Pakistan, within the current context of the spontaneous groundswell of religious zeal in Pakistan. It seeks to study the raison d'etre of this party, which has no popular support and overtly fosters militant jihadist networks in its midst but is still capable of sustaining itself in mainstream politics through its alliance with a popular political party, while simultaneously maintaining its parasitical relationship with the military and the Saudi financing community. With the aim to meaningfully identify the nature of the party and put into perspective JAH's standing in Pakistani politics, the paper also focuses on the reasons and implications for JAH existence through which it is able to influence and disrupt public policy to some extent. It outlines the particular puritanically idealistic vision of Pakistan that is harbored by the JAH, tries to understand how this idealism nourishes the JAH and at the same time makes it irrelevant to the general public in Pakistan.

description: The fundamental factor in the existence of a Russian cult of the war dead was the public sphere and its particular characteristics in postwar Russian culture and politics, not a divergence from Europe in the Russian war experience. During World War I, ordinary Russians as well as governmental and non-governmental organizations were already planning memorial sites. While no official Soviet World War I monuments were built, the Russian émigré community in Europe and elsewhere developed a cult of the fallen, largely for the same reasons as other combatant nation states.

description: This study draws on networked framing and intermedia network agenda-setting theories to examine how different informational actors have framed the March for Our Lives gun control movement in 2018. This study uses the Social Science One Facebook URLs share dataset to compare network-agenda setting of different media types including offline news media, partisan sites, nonpartisan sites, advocacy/activism organizations, and social media/aggregate services. Results suggest that news media’s framing was the richest and most dynamic, suggesting their important roles in setting the gun issue as a salient public agenda. Meanwhile, emerging media expanded the scope of framing by covering race, gender, and equity issues into gun politics. The movement/activist organizational actors showed the least similarity to other media types, inviting further questions on the role of movement/activist actors in shaping public attention and agendas in the process.
Basic Facts About Low-income Children, 2010: Children Under Age 18

Poverty--Measurement

description: Children represent 24 percent of the population. Yet, they comprise 34 percent of all people in poverty. Among all children, 44 percent live in low-income families and approximately one in every five (21 percent) live in poor families. Our very youngest children, infants and toddlers under age 3, appear to be particularly vulnerable, with 48 percent living in low-income families, including 25 percent living in poor families. Winding up in a low-income or poor family does not happen by chance. There are a range of factors associated with children's experiences of economic insecurity, including race/ethnicity and parents' educational attainment and employment. This fact sheet, which is an update to the series based on the 2010 American Community Survey (ACS), describes the demographic, socio-economic, and geographic characteristics of children and their parents -- highlighting the important factors that appear to distinguish low-income and poor children from their less disadvantaged counterparts.

description: We invented a novel method to fabricate graphene transistors on oxidized silicon wafers without the need to transfer graphene layers. By means of catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CCVD) the in-situ grown bilayer graphene transistors (BiLGFETs) are realized directly on oxidized silicon substrate, whereby the number of stacked graphene layers is determined by the selected CCVD process parameters, e.g. temperature and gas mixture. BiLGFETs exhibit ultra-high on/off-current ratios of 107 at room temperature, exceeding previously reported values by several orders of magnitude. This will allow a simple and low-cost integration of graphene devices for digital nanoelectronic applications in a hybrid silicon CMOS environment for the first time.

Distribution of Maximal Luminosity of Galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

description: Extreme value statistics (EVS) is applied to the distribution of galaxy luminosities in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We analyze the DR8 Main Galaxy Sample (MGS), as well as the Luminous Red Galaxies (LRG). Maximal luminosities are sampled from batches consisting of elongated pencil beams in the radial direction of sight. For the MGS, results suggest a small and positive tail index $ξ$, effectively ruling out the possibility of having a finite maximum cutoff luminosity, and implying that the luminosity distribution function may decay as a power law at the high luminosity end. Assuming, however, $ξ=0$, a non-parametric comparison of the maximal luminosities with the Fisher-Tippett-Gumbel distribution (limit distribution for variables distributed by the Schechter fit) indicates a good agreement provided uncertainties arising both from the finite batch size and from the batch size distribution are accounted for. For a volume limited sample of LRGs, results show that they can be described as being the extremes of a luminosity distribution with an exponentially decaying tail, provided the uncertainties related to batch-size distribution are taken care of.
