Identifying, developing and grading 'soft skills' in design and technology education: a methodological approach.

Soft skills (Professional skills) complement hard skills to enhance an individual's relationships, job performance and career prospects. Strategically targeting the development of these skills requires the recognition of key qualities, the capacity to discriminate between qualities (Orsmond, Merry, Reiling, 2000; Sadler, 2009) and a mechanism that will validly and reliability reward acquisition. Educators and learners must take cognisance of the sophisticated relationships between acquiring content knowledge and professional skills through specific ways of working and thinking. This research, which is part of a three year longitudinal project funded by the European Commission, frames the initial challenge of untangling Hard and Soft skills for the purpose of explicit development and assessment. Understanding the nature of evidence that is suggestive of soft skill acquisition is central to this research. Key design considerations are presented in this paper and outline the potential use of information and communications technology (ICT) to enhance teaching, learning and assessment tailored for the recognition of soft skills. The paper proposes an assessment architecture that acknowledges the importance of educator, peer, and self appraisal when adjudicating on subjective and often personal data. The proposal has the capacity to balance, weight, and triangulate the objective and subjective evidence of soft skill acquisition ensuring the validity and reliability of resultant digital accreditation.

Employability Skills in BIM for Construction Managers: Recommendations for Education

Many mainstream architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) professionals are using Building Information Modeling (BIM) Although more and more firms are using BIM and this trend is forecast to continue, it is unclear what skills and competencies a construction manager will need in five years related to BIM. This research aims to answer that question through the use of a Delphi panel comprised of AEC professionals. The panel consists of members with the following qualifications: a minimum of eight years industry or academic experience or a combination of the two, a minimum of three years BIM experience, and membership in a nationally recognized professional organization. This paper presents findings from a research project based on BIM skills for the construction manager. This paper highlight the results of a three round Delphi study that identified skills and competencies in the following areas related to construction management: cost, scheduling and control, project administration, contract documents, and other skills that were not in other categories. Although many "new" BIM related construction management skills and competencies, "traditional" skills and competencies are a top response in each respective category. Within these "traditional" skills was the reinforcement of soft skills. BIM is a collaborative project management system so many soft skills are more important than with traditional project management systems. BIM requires some efficient communication along with strong soft skills, an area reinforced by the findings of this research. As BIM diffuses into the construction community, social systems interested in increasing BIM usage should augment "traditional" skill sets with the "new" BIM related skills and competencies. Any academic programs seeking to implement BIM related topics into existing courses should do so in a careful manner. This research revealed in five years BIM will continue to enter the mainstream. Building Information Modeling theory suggests that AEC industry will completely change because of BIM. However, this is not the entirely the case. This research discovered that soft skills are more important because of BIM diffusion.
Detecting Design Patterns in Object Oriented Program Source Code by Using Graph Matching Algorithm

Design Patterns are solution to common continual design issues.  Pattern Detection is most significant activity that will support lots of re engineering method and so provides significant info to the designer. Information of design pattern exists within the system design improves the program understanding and software system maintenance. Therefore, an automatic and reliable design pattern discovery is needed. Graph theoretical approaches had been used for design pattern detection in past. Here we tends to applying the algorithm that relies on the graph matching. A similar algorithm we tends to using here for design pattern detection from the system design.
Revenge and Vengeance in Shakespeare's Hamlet: A Study of Hamlet's Pursuit and Procrastination Regarding Revenge

Shakespeare was the phenomenal writer of Elizabethan era. Among his many greatest writing pieces, Hamlet was one of his most famous work. If we proceed to elucidate the play Hamlet, then we willsee there were three significant plots which has been presented with great importance. The main revenge plot and two othersub plots including the romance between Hamlet and Ophelia and the looming war with Norway. With these three significant plots Hamlet has dealt with procrastination, because the revengewas not done until the final scenes. However, Shakespeare did depict the direct reference to the traditionwith the play within play. For doing such, he did presentan Italian Picarro play called " The murder of Gonzago" In order to establish the true justice of Hamlet"s father"s murder, Hamlet attempted todecorate that Italian play with grim tenacity, he was very adamant to catch the real culprit of his father"s death. To accomplish this hard task, Hamlet became slow and ponderedover many things. In this way Hamlet was slowin the process of taking revenge and as a result some other deaths has been taken place, such unnecessary deaths were the deaths of Polonius, Laertes, Ophelia, Gertrude, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. To shed the highlight of Hamlet"s inability of taking revenge on time, Shakespeare has exhibited a number of other characters who were capable of taking resolute and determined revenge as per their requirements. For examples, Fortinbrashas travelled from many miles to take revenge of his father"s murder and ultimately he gothis desired success in conquering Denmark. Another character Laertes did plot against Hamlet to kill him in order to take revenge of his father Polonius"s murder, and towards the end of this novel Laertes also got success in killing Hamlet by the poisonous sword. As a whole the predominant goal of this paper is to exhibit Hamlet as a revenge play where all other incidents of revenge has been incorporated brilliantly by Shakespeare.
Facile process to greatly improve the photocatalytic activity of the TiO2 thin film on window glass for the photodegradation of acetone and benzene

TiO 2 thin film fabricated on window glass (soda lime glass) demonstrates various promising applications, such as for the photodegradation of air pollutants like VOCs. However, the photocatalytic activity of the TiO 2 thin film fabricated on window glass through the currently reported traditional sol gel method is relatively low, because usually it has poor crystallinity, which hinders its practical application. In this research, we have developed a facile and novel method to greatly improve the crystallinity and the photocatalytic activity of the TiO 2 thin film fabricated on window glass, that is the PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone) modified sol gel method. By simply adding 3% 6% and 9% (weight percentage) PVP into titanium sol, the photocatalytic activities of the obtained TiO 2 thin films are 3.01, 4.37 and 3.33 times higher than that of the TiO 2 thin film fabricated without PVP for the photodegradation of acetone. As for the photodegradation of benzene, the photocatalytic activities of them are improved by 2.80, 4.62 and 3.07 times, respectively. Additionally, the obtained TiO 2 thin film also exhibits excellent photocatalytic stability, high visible light transmittance, firm adhesion and high photocatalytic activity under natural sunlight. These advantages demonstrate that it has the prospect of being large scale applied on window glass for air purification under sunlight.
Effektivitat integrativer psychotherapeutischer Beratung fur Studierende Wie verandern sich Symptombelastung, Lebens und Studienzufriedenheit, Alltagskreativitat sowie kreatives und schlussfolgerndes Denken im Verlauf integrativer psychologischer und psychotherapeutischer Beratung?

In dieser ersten Effektivitatsstudie zur psychotherapeutischen Beratung Studierender im deutschsprachigen Raum, wurde bei 151 KlientInnen die Wirksamkeit eines integrativen Beratungskonzepts untersucht. Das integrative Beratungskonzept umfasst supportive (Alliance) verhaltensorientierte (Behavior) kognitive (Cognitions) psychodynamische (Dynamics) und existentielle Elemente (Existentials) und lasst sich zusammenfassend als ABCDE Modell beschreiben. Es erlaubt eine Betrachtung der gegenwartigen individuellen Problematik des Klienten aus unterschiedlichen und sich wechselseitig erganzenden Perspektiven und gewahrleistet ein umfassendes Verstandnis menschlichen Erlebens, Denkens, Handelns und Fuhlens und darauf bezogener Einschrankungen. Auf Basis dieses Verstandnisses erfolgt die Wahl geeigneter Strategien fur die Auseinandersetzung mit der aktuellen Problematik und deren Bewaltigung. Auch im Vergleich zu den bisherigen internationalen Studien in diesem Anwendungsfeld ist die Effektivitat psychotherapeutischer Beratung nach dem ABCDE Modell als hoch einzustufen. Die Pra Post Veranderungen auf den Symptom Zufriedenheits und Kreativitatsmasen waren signifikant und erreichten uberwiegend mittlere bis hohe Effektstarken. Ein hoher Prozentsatz an KlientInnen verbesserte sich im Beratungsverlauf statistisch und auch klinisch signifikant. Die Ergebnisse der Dosis Wirkungsanalysen legen nahe, dass fur eine statistisch signifikante Verbesserung der Halfte der KlientInnen mindestens acht und fur eine klinisch signifikante Verbesserung mindestens neun Sitzungen notwendig sind und in der Bedarfsplanung entsprechend berucksichtigt werden sollten. Die im Unterschied zu den bisherigen Effektivitatsstudien erfolgte Miteinbeziehung der Fremdbeurteilungssicht und die Diagnostik nach ICD 10 verdeutlichen, dass fur das Beratungsangebot geeignete KlientInnen weiterbehandelt werden, wahrend psychisch und in diagnostischer Hinsicht starker beeintrachtigte KlientInnen weitervermittelt werden, die Beratung abbrechen oder den Post Bogen nicht ausfullen. Die vorliegende Arbeit stellt einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Ergebnisforschung im Bereich psychotherapeutischer Beratung fur Studierende dar. Uber die Verwendung breiter und dem Gegenstandsbereich angemessener Ergebniskriterien ergibt sich aus unterschiedlichen Beurteilungsperspektiven ein differenziertes Bild von (individueller) Veranderung im Verlauf integrativer psychotherapeutischer Beratung. Einschrankungen der vorliegenden Untersuchung betreffen die insbesondere durch das Fehlen einer Kontrollgruppe bedingte geringe interne Validitat.
Cisplatin Associated Ototoxicity: A Review for the Health Professional
Venue: Journal of toxicology

Cisplatin is an effective drug used in the treatment of many cancers, yet its ototoxic potential places cancer patients, exposed to this drug, at risk of hearing loss, thus negatively impacting further on a patient's quality of life. It is paramount for health care practitioners managing such patients to be aware of cisplatin's ototoxic properties and the clinical signs to identify patients at risk of developing hearing loss. English peer reviewed articles from January 1975 to July 2015 were assessed from PubMed, Science Direct, and Ebscohost. Seventy nine articles and two books were identified for this review, using MeSH terms and keywords such as "ototoxicity" "cisplatin" "hearing loss" and "ototoxicity monitoring" This review provides an up to date overview of cisplatin associated ototoxicity, namely, its clinical features, incidence rates, and molecular and cellular mechanisms and risk factors, to health care practitioners managing the patient with cancer, and highlights the need for a team based approach to complement an audiological monitoring programme to mitigate any further loss in the quality of life of affected patients, as there is currently no otoprotective agent recommended routinely for the prevention of cisplatin associated ototoxicity. It also sets the platform for effective dialogue towards policy formulation and strengthening of health systems in developing countries.
CdS/MoS2 heterojunction based photoelectrochemical DNA biosensor via enhanced chemiluminescence excitation.
Venue: Biosensors bioelectronics

This work developed a CdS/MoS2 heterojunction based photoelectrochemical biosensor for sensitive detection of DNA under the enhanced chemiluminescence excitation of luminol catalyzed by hemin DNA complex. The CdS/MoS2 photocathode was prepared by the stepwise assembly of MoS2 and CdS quantum dots (QDs) on indium tin oxide (ITO) and achieved about 280% increasing of photocurrent compared to pure CdS QDs electrode due to the formation of heterostructure. High photoconversion efficiency in the photoelectrochemical system was identified to be the rapid spatial charge separation of electron hole pairs by the extension of electron transport time and electron lifetime. In the presence of target DNA, the catalytic hairpin assembly was triggered, and simultaneously the dual hemin labeled DNA probe was introduced to capture DNA/CdS/MoS2 modified ITO electrode. Thus the chemiluminescence emission of luminol was enhanced via hemin induced mimetic catalysis, leading to the physical light free photoelectrochemical strategy. Under optimized conditions, the resulting photoelectrode was proportional to the logarithm of target DNA concentration in the range from 1 fM to 100 pM with a detection limit of 0.39 fM. Moreover, the cascade amplification biosensor demonstrated high selectivity, desirable stability and good reproducibility, showing great prospect in molecular diagnosis and bioanalysis.

A Psychometric Review of the Personality Inventory for DSM 5 (PID 5) Current Status and Future Directions
Venue: Journal of personality assessment

The paradigm of personality psychopathology is shifting from one that is purely categorical in nature to one grounded in dimensional individual differences. Section III (Emerging Measures and Models) of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (5th ed.  To inform the hybrid model, the DSM 5 Personality and Personality Disorders Work Group developed a self report instrument to assess pathological personality traits the Personality Inventory for the DSM 5 (PID 5) Since its recent introduction, 30 papers (39 samples) have been published examining various aspects of its psychometric properties. In this article, we review the psychometric characteristics of the PID 5 using the Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing as our framework. The PID 5 demonstrates adequate psychometric properties, including a replicable factor structure, convergence with existing personality instruments, and expected associations with broadly conceptualized clinical constructs. More research is needed with specific consideration to clinical utility, additional forms of reliability and validity, relations with psychopathological personality traits using clinical samples, alternative methods of criterion validation, effective employment of cut scores, and the inclusion of validity scales to propel this movement forward.
Automatic generation control of a multi area system using ant lion optimizer algorithm based PID plus second order derivative controller

This article presents the automatic generation control of an unequal three area thermal system. Single stage reheat turbines and generation rate constraints of 3%/min are considered in each control area. Controllers such as Integral (I) Proportional Integral (PI) Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) and Proportional Integral Derivative Plus Second Order Derivative (PID DD) are treated as secondary controllers separately. A nature inspired optimization technique called Ant Lion Optimizer (ALO) algorithm is used for simultaneous optimization of the controller gains. Comparison of dynamic responses of frequencies and tie line powers corresponding to ALO optimized I, PI, PID and PID DD controller reveal the better performance of PID DD controller in terms of lesser settling time, peak overshoots as well as reduced oscillations. Robustness of the optimum gains of best controller obtained at nominal conditions is evaluated using sensitivity analysis. Analysis exposed that the optimum PID DD controller gains obtained at nominal are robust and not necessary to reset again for changes in loading, parameter like inertia constant H size and position of disturbance. Furthermore, the performance of PID DD controller is found better as compared to PID controller against random loading pattern condition.
Automatically Extracting Threats from Extended Data Flow Diagrams
Venue: ESSoS

Architectural risk analysis is an important aspect of developing software that is free of security flaws. Knowledge on architectural flaws, however, is sparse, in particular in small or medium sized enterprises. In this paper, we propose a practical approach to architectural risk analysis that leverages Microsoft's threat modeling. Our technique decouples the creation of a system's architecture from the process of detecting and collecting architectural flaws. This way, our approach allows an software architect to automatically detect vulnerabilities in software architectures by using a security knowledge base. We evaluated our approach with real world case studies, focusing on logistics applications. The evaluation uncovered several flaws with a major impact on the security of the software.

A Temptation to Stalk: The Impact of Curiosity on User Acceptance of Social Networking Sites
Venue: AMCIS

Social networking sites occupy increasing fields of daily life and act as important communication channels today. But recent research also discusses the dark side of these sites, which expresses in form of stress, envy, addiction or even depression. Nevertheless, there must be a reason why people use social networking sites, even though they face related risks. One reason is human curiosity that tempts users to behave like this. The research on hand presents the impact of curiosity on user acceptance of social networking sites, which is theorized and empirically evaluated by using the technology acceptance model and a quantitative study among Facebook users. It further reveals that especially two types of human curiosity, epistemic and interpersonal curiosity, influence perceived usefulness and perceived enjoyment, and with it technology acceptance.
The PANDA Experiment at FAIR Subatomic Physics with Antiprotons

The non perturbative nature of the strong interaction leads to spectacular phenomena, such as the formation of hadronic matter, color confinement, and the generation of the mass of visible matter. To get deeper insight into the underlying mechanisms remains one of the most challenging tasks within the field of subatomic physics. The antiProton ANnihilations at DArmstadt (PANDA) collaboration has the ambition to address key questions in this field by exploiting a cooled beam of antiprotons at the High Energy Storage Ring (HESR) at the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) combined with a state of the art and versatile detector. This contribution will address some of the unique features of PANDA that give rise to a promising physics program together with state of the art technological developments.
Surveillance Scene Segmentation Based on Trajectory Classification Using Supervised Learning
Venue: CVIP

Scene understanding plays a vital role in the field of visual surveillance and security where we aim to classify surveillance scenes based on two important information, namely scene's layout and activities or motions within the scene. In this paper, we propose a supervised learning based novel algorithm to segment surveillance scenes with the help of high level features extracted from object trajectories. High level features are computed using a recently proposed nonoverlapping block based representation of surveillance scene. We have trained Hidden Markov Model (HMM) to learn parameters describing the dynamics of a given surveillance scene. Experiments have been carried out using publicly available datasets and the outcomes suggest that, the proposed methodology can deliver encouraging results for correctly segmenting surveillance with the help of motion trajectories. We have compared the method with state of the art techniques. It has been observed that, our proposed method outperforms baseline algorithms in various contexts such as localization of frequently accessed paths, marking abandoned or inaccessible locations, etc.
