    Corrigan Walk: Corrigan Walk Tour App

    No full text
    The research revolves around "The Corrigan Walk Tour Application," situated at the intersection of augmented reality and gamification, aimed at enriching user engagement with cultural heritage. The study draws on contemporary literature (Bekele & Champion, 2019; Gonzalez et al., 2020) and builds upon Dr. Nikolche Vasilevski's doctoral research (Vasilevski, 2021) at Bond University. The project emphasises technology, location-based context, and Indigenous storytelling through art (Vasilevski, Urquhart & Birt, 2021) with a central research question focusing on leveraging gamification and augmented reality to enhance appreciation of Indigenous art and culture. Dr. Vasilevski's previous findings revealed that previous versions of the application fosters a stronger sense of place compared to traditional art tours (Vasilevski, 2021). This evolved app version, after iterative user-centered design, is now accessible to all at Bond University, aligning with the university's commitment to indigenise the curriculum and enhancing visitor experience and service quality, supported by the Office of Engagement and Patrick Corrigan. Its potential impact extends globally, serving as an innovative solution for museums, educational institutions, and cultural sites, facilitating a deeper connection with cultural heritage

However, much of this research focuses on perception, and studies which have analyzed production have generally included only acoustic measures or native English speaker judgements. Furthermore, few studies on production analyze positional effects. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to apply ultrasonic evidence in addition to acoustic evidence in order to determine the articulatory cause of the lack of differentiation between English /r/ and /l/ by native Japanese and Korean speakers. In addition, minimal pairs with /r/ and /l/ in word-initial, initial-cluster, intervocalic, and word-final conditions are included in the study for analysis of positional effects. Findings suggest that word-initial position is the least difficult for native Japanese speakers, but lack of differentiation is most widespread in initial-cluster position, though more severe in intervocalic and word-final positions. Little difficulty was observed for native Korean speakers with the exception of a single minimal pair: word-world. In regard to the articulatory cause of lack of differentiation, much variation was observed, though severely undifferentiated instances of /r/ and /l/ were often due to /l/ targets being pronounced similarly to /r/. These /l/ targets pronounced as /r/ often had a more fronted tongue tip position than /r/ targets, but more native-like /r/ acoustics. The cause of less severely undifferentiated pairs was difficult to determine, but may have been due to either a reduction in tongue tip or tongue root retraction for /r/ targets

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    [Transcription begins]FROMM/Sgt C. E. Corrigan-3117383389th Fin Dis Spc - APO 6575 PM. New York, N. Y.18 Jan 1945 TO:Bryant Service ClubBryant CollegeProvidence, R. I.U. S. A. To the Bryant Service Club: Yesterday, 17 January, I was pleasantly surprised to receive a lovely box of candy from you and I do want to express my sincere thanks as well as my sincere appreciation for the thoughtfulness of the Club in remembering me. It seems a long time since I last heard from the Bryant Service Club and I guess the last time that I did I was back in the States. Since leaving the United States, I was stationed in England for a period of about five months and saw a great deal of the English countryside. We were stationed in a place called Woolacombe, which was in a great many respects a replica of Narragansett Pier. the weather there, even in the summertime was quite cold and on days when we thought it was cold, the folks living there were in bathing, so it seems they are more hardened to cold weather than we are back home. I have been in France for the last four months and have seen a great many parts of this country. It is very interesting to see the sights and customs of the folks over here and I hope that when I get back home to have a little opportunity to drop over to see the members of the Brynat [sic] Club and tell them some of the things which I am sure will be of interest to them. I hope that if the Club issues any data on former members of the college that they will place me on the mailing list for I would appreciate hearing of and reading about the members who are in the Service. With my sincere thanks, I am SincerelyC. E. CorriganBryant 1926[Transcription ends
