    The (im)possibilities of teaching-learning freedom

    No full text
    Twenty-one years after a free and democratic South Africa was constituted, it seems as if South Africans are still in limbo. In this article, the author explores the essence of freedom as conceptualised by Arendt (1958, 1966, 1900, 2006) and the (im)possibilities of teaching-learning freedom towards continual new beginnings. Freedom and new beginnings are actualised when humans speak and act in equal difference. The possibilities of teaching-learning freedom rely on the acknowledgement of both the burden and the power of freedom and in unexpected acts of compassion and forgiveness in the teacher:child relationship (Becker 2013, 26). Using a phenomenological approach, the author explores qualitative data from the research project Human rights literacy: A quest for meaning (Roux 2012) to explore the (im)possibilities of teaching-learning freedom

    Understanding stance classification of BERT models : an attention-based mechanism

    No full text
    BERT produces state-of-the-art solutions for many natural language processing tasks at the cost of interpretability. As works discuss the value of BERT’s attention weights to this purpose, we contribute with an attention-based interpretability framework to identify the most influential words for stance classification using BERT-based models. Unlike related work, we develop a broader level of interpretability focused on the overall model behavior instead of single instances. We aggregate tokens’ attentions into words’ attention weights that are more meaningful and can be semantically related to the domain. We propose attention metrics to assess words’ influence in the correct classification of stances. We use three case studies related to COVID-19 to assess the proposed framework in a broad experimental setting encompassing six datasets and four BERT pre-trained models for Portuguese and English languages, resulting in sixteen stance classification models. Through establishing five different research questions, we obtained valuable insights on the usefulness of attention weights to interpret stance classification that allowed us to generalize our findings. Our results are independent of a particular pre-trained BERT model and comparable to those obtained using an alternative baseline method. High attention scores improve the probability of finding words that positively impact the model performance and influence the correct classification (up to 82% of identified influential words contribute to correct predictions). The influential words represent the domain and can be used to identify how the model leverages the arguments expressed to predict a stance

    Biomass for energy production in the context of selected European and international policy objectives

    No full text
    Biomass based energy production has attained a significant market share within the developing renewable energy market. In comparison to alternative renewable energy sources, biomass has several special features: it is not inexhaustible in the short term (limitation of arable land) and it is not only an energy source. Other usages like food or feed compete with energy production for this resource. A number of problems arise which have a direct impact on the fulfillment of policy objectives which are connected with its promotion. Primarily, the production of bioenergy has significant impacts on coupled biomass markets. Further, a change in production intensity or arable land use increases the use of nutrient loads and agro - chemicals. When evaluating renewable energy production, the wide range of political objectives has to be considered. Therefore, the focus of the overall study will be on three objective areas: promotion of the agricultural sector, environmental protection (reduction of GHG emissions) and maintenance of food supply security. The objective of this study is to combine an analysis of selected economic and ecological impacts of an increased biomass based energy production (primarily biofuels) under the assumption of European and international quantity targets by adjusting and applying the agricultural sector model CAPRI (Common Agricultural Policy Regional Impact Analysis). This poster intends to display the methodical approach of the intended analysis.Bioenergy, Biofuels, Biomass production, Impact analysis., Resource /Energy Economics and Policy,
