Funds of knowledge: Developing a Diploma in Teaching in Early Childhood Education in the Solomon Islands.
This article discusses how three early childhood teacher educators, from the Solomon Islands College of Higher Education School of Education and the University of Waikato Faculty of Education, worked in partnership together and with others to develop a new Diploma in Teaching Early Childhood Education (ECE) for the Solomon Islands. We argue that the knowledge and understandings that we shared about New Zealand early childhood education and its bicultural curriculum Te Whāriki made our task easier from the outset. So too did our shared "funds of knowledge" and expertise, particularly the Solomon Islands women's indigenous knowledge and abilities to reflect on teaching and learning in their nation and New Zealand, two contexts they understood well. As we worked through a range of issues related to the development and delivery of courses, the primacy of relationships and historical, cultural and social contexts for learning were reinforced. Broad understandings of relevant education pedagogy for adults and young children were incorporated through the diploma development process. The result was a new Diploma in Teaching Early Childhood Education and new ways of teaching and learning embedded in Solomon Islands contexts, blending the best of local and imported knowledge. This article adds to a small body of literature related to ECE in the Solomon Islands and the Pacific region

Türkei auf der Suche nach sich selbst - Turkey Searching for Itself
Ece Temelkuran, lawyer, journalist and author, speaks about the history of Turkey and how it could evolve to a country with many political problems. Furthermore, she outlines the importance of countries that are outside of the European map right now for the dignity learning process of Europe.
The lecture took place in the course of the 20th Karlsruhe Dialogues at the IHK Karlsruhe on Saturday, 20th February 2016.

Tertiary teaching: Reflecting on human change and influence from the crucible
This article draws on the metaphor of ‘a crucible’ to describe the tertiary classroom context, where I work in initial teacher education with early childhood education (ECE) student teachers. Stories are told about the classroom participants (students and an educator) in an attempt to find meaning in terms of development, both the students and mine. This storytelling highlights ongoing questions for me about the impact of what happens in the classroom we bring our selves to, and the significance of informed actions for social justice for teachers and teaching. In telling these stories I highlight my deepening understanding of education pedagogy, and perception of myself as a teacher, a practitioner of human influence and change. I hope that these stories echo and illuminate the experiences of other educators as they too seek to understand their practice
Machine learning-based identification of boosted objects and search for pair production of heavy vector-like quarks in fully-hadronic final states with the ATLAS detector
In this thesis, the data recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC in 2015 and 2016, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb-1, is analyzed to study the performance of the boosted object identification algorithms and to search for pair-produced heavy vector-like quarks in fully hadronic final states. The first part of the thesis focuses on the use of jet moments as inputs to deep neural networks to build binary jet classifiers which discriminate W-boson or top-quark jets from the gluon and light-quark jet background. The second part of the thesis presents a search for pair-produced vector-like quarks in fully-hadronic final states with small missing transverse momentum. The analysis strategy is optimized assuming that the pair produced vector-like quarks decay into a Standard Model boson and a third-generation quark. No significant deviation from the Standard Model expectation is observed and upper limits are set on the production cross-sections
