Messageria scalarioides subsp. donghiana Chen & Lin 2021
No full textMessageria scalarioides donghiana Z.-Y. Chen & L.-W. Lin, n. ssp. Figures 1E–H, 2A Holotype: HBUMM 10058, a big cave in mountains between Fengshan County [Hechi City] and Leye County [Baise City], Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China, ex coll. Hao Yang, 2012. Paratypes: CZY/1, LLW/1, same data as holotype. Etymology. This name comes from the local Zhuang language “dongh”, which means “cave”. Diagnosis. This subspecies can be distinguished from the nominate subspecies by the larger shell and wider lower whorls and umbilicus. Also, the aperture of M. scalarioides donghiana n. ssp. and 1/8 whorl behind it evidently deviate from the axis and umbilicus. Measurements. H = 3.70 mm, W = 3.37 mm, D A = 1.89 mm (holotype).

Does Downloading PowerPoint Slides Before the Lecture Lead to Better Student Achievement?: Reply
Full text linkThis reply responds to a comment by Cannon (2011) that opens the debate on consistency of the effect of downloading PowerPoint slides before lectures on students’ exam performance. Cannon (2011) points out potential endogeneity problems in Chen and Lin (2008) and attempts to explore the unconditional mean effect of downloading PowerPoint slides for the full sample. In this reply, we firstly argue that the estimates in our original article are consistent since the effect of interest is the “conditional†treatment effect but not the unconditional mean effect. We provide explanations for our rationale of estimating the “conditional†treatment effect. Secondly, we propose a modified downloading variable to replicate Cannon’s analysis. Our results suggest that downloading PowerPoint slides before the exam does not produce a significant effect on absent students’ exam performance which is different from the results in Cannon (2011). Our analysis does support Cannon’s argument that students fixed effects are different across different attendance status.

Design equations for complementary electrochromic devices: application to the tungsten oxide–Prussian blue system
No full textComment on Chen and Lin “Does downloading Powerpoint slides before the lecture lead to better student achievement?â€
Full text linkChen and Lin (2008) is an interesting attempt to measure the effect of students having access to PowerPoint slides before a lecture. They argue that such access leads to better learning outcomes as measured by higher exam marks. While their empirical results shed some light on students’ use of PowerPoint slides, I argue that they have not succeeded in isolating the treatment effect and the correlations cannot be interpreted as causal.
