Using performance assessment in secondary school mathematics: an empirical study in a Singapore classroom
No full textThis article reports an exploratory study on using performance assessment in mathematics instruction in a high-performing secondary school in Singapore. An intact mathematics class participated in the study, and received chapter-based performance tasks as intervention during regular mathematics lessons for about one and a half school years. The performance tasks used included authentic and/or open-ended tasks. The students’ academic achievements and attitudes in mathematics were compared with a comparison class that did not receive the intervention. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected, mainly through questionnaire surveys, performance task tests, conventional school exams, and interviews with students and teachers. The results suggest that the students receiving the intervention performed significantly better than their counterparts in solving conventional exam problems, and in general they also showed more positive changes in attitudes towards mathematics and mathematics learning. The students from the experimental class also expressed positive views about the benefits of using performance tasks in promoting their ability in higher order thinking, though no statistically significant difference was detected between the two classes of students in solving unconventional tasks before and after intervention. Overall, the results appear to support teachers’ using contextualised problems in real life situations and open-ended investigations in students’ learning of mathematic
Richardson, Barbauld, and the construction of an early modern fan club
No full textMPhilMuch has been written about the life and long works of the eighteenth century epistolary novelist, Samuel Richardson, but the prospect of his position as the first celebrity novelist – responsible for courting his own fame as well as initiating his own fan club – has largely been ignored. The body of manuscripts housed at the National Art Library in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London provides the modern scholar with evidence of the skeletal beginnings of an early fan club. This thesis aims to show how these manuscripts were turned into a saleable commodity by the publisher and entrepreneur Richard Phillips, while under the guiding hand of another, slightly later, literary celebrity, Anna Laetitia Barbauld. In order to restore Richardson’s reputation amongst a new nineteenth century audience, Barbauld was required to construct her own idea of him as an eighteenth century celebrity author, and in doing so the insecurities of a self-professed, apparently diffident man, are revealed. Barbauld’s capacious, but heavily edited selection of letters is analyzed in this thesis, providing ample evidence that Richardson’s correspondents were more than just eager letter writers. By using Barbauld’s biography of Richardson this thesis aims to show how she manipulates the genre of life writing in her construction of him.
This thesis offers an alternative reading of how the Richardson manuscripts are viewed, redefining them as not simply a collection of letters, but as a collective entity, deliberately selected and archived as evidence of an early modern fan club, and its celebrity managing director
Development of a rotor model for the numerical simulation of helicopter exterior flow-fields
No full textIncludes bibliographical references (leaves 84-85).A numerical methodology is developed to model the effect of a rotor on the surrounding flow-field. The model calculates the time-averaged aerodynamic forces exerted on the air by the fan blades within the blade-swept region, and permits the user to specify blade properties such as cross-sectional profile and orientation at a particular radial and azimuthal location. The calculated forces are included as source terms within the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations for an incompressible fluid, which are solved by the commercial CFD solver, FLUENT. The effects of turbulence are incorporated through the use of Launder and Spalding's k-g turbulence model. This method is selected as being the most efficient use of the resources available, giving the economic advantages of a steady simulation, while allowing radial and azimuthal variations of rotor characteristics. In order to validate the accuracy of the numerical model for both aligned and non-aligned inflow conditions, results are compared with experimental data reported for an axial flow fan. Agreement between experimental and numerical results is excellent to good. Fan static pressure rise is closely predicted by the numerical solution, while fan power consumption and fan static efficiency are under and over-predicted respectively. This error may be attributed to frictional losses not accounted for in the numerical model. These include physical rotational instabilities, leading to increased mechanical losses, and tip effects due to the clearance between the fan blade tips and the fan casing. Trends are nevertheless consistently predicted by the numerical model for inflow angles up to 45°, and for the range of blade pitch settings used. The adverse effect of off-axis inflow on the fan static pressure rise is numerically predicted, while fan power consumption is found to remain independent of inflow angle, as had been experimentally observed. The rotor model is finally integrated with the fuselage of the CIRSTEL (Combined Infra-Red Suppression and Tail rotor Elimination) prototype in an analysis of the helicopter exterior flow-field. No experimental data for this configuration was available for validation purposes. However, the model is used in the simulation of several common helicopter flight conditions. Results are presented graphically, and generally indicate good agreement with physically observed phenomena

Dormant Hui Identity
No full textHui 回 is among the 10 officially recognized Islamic minzu 民族 (ethnic group; nationality) of China. To a difference from much previous work done on the Hui, this research project does not presume Hui as an ethnic group. Instead, issues considered by the target group to be of concern are analyzed. ' The goal of this research is to attain better understanding of how migrant Hui identity has developed into that in present day Hangzhou. It is a case study exploring Hui ethnic, religious and regional identities from the perspective of social organization. The findings of this project are mainly based on more than 50 semi-structured interviews with the Islamic minzus of Hui, Salar, Dongxiang, Bao an, Uighurs, as well as the Han majority group of China. ' The main indication is that Hui ethnicity is currently dormant in Hangzhou. While my interviewees may speak of themselves as Hui, this has not served to become a foundation for what Benedict Anderson terms as deep, horizontal comradeship. (Anderson, 1983/2006, p. 7). Instead, religion and regional identities appear to be more important factors of social organization. Islamic identity is usually more predominant in cases related to interaction with Han and the secular society it represents. Regional identities are typically more predominant in cases related to interaction among Muslims. The case of Hui in Hangzhou differs from the situation of Hui in locations such as Balong (Hillman, 2004) and Quanzhou (Fan, 2003/2009). Research indicates that Hui identity in these locations may be termed as ethnic from a circumstantialist perspective. The limited importance of Hangzhou Hui ethnicity in social organization does therefore not exclude an ethnic revival should circumstances change. This is why I have termed the situation of Hui in Hangzhou as dormant

Improved turbofan intake liner design and optimization
No full textIn modern turbofan engines, fan noise is one of the principle noise sources due to increased bypass ratio of the engines. Acoustic liners in the intake and bypass sections of the engine are effective in mitigating noise generated by the fan. They also play an important role in reducing fan blade instabilities by minimizing low-frequency acoustic reflections within the intake. Any damage on the lined surface has the potential to compromise the effectiveness of the liner; especially, its noise suppressing capabilities. The research presented in this thesis explores these areas on a much wider scale and aims to obtain an improved design of turbofan liners. The work performed ranges from developing an efficient strategy to optimize intake liners automatically to reduce both community noise and low-frequency acoustic reflections, to investigating the effects of liner damage and repair on the performance of zero-splice intake liners. Computational Aero-Acoustic (CAA) models have been used to predict radiated noise from a turbofan intake and the results have been validated against Rolls-Royce rig and engine test data. Adjustments have been made to the linear predictions to account for non-linear propagation effects which are significant at high fan speeds. Intake liners have been optimised to mitigate radiated noise in the far-field by using the CAA code within automated optimisation routines. The cumulative process time of these automated techniques seems to be within the acceptable limit by the industry. The acoustic effects of liner damage and repair on liner performance have been assessed by using analytical and computational prediction models. The effects of the extent and the location of the damage or the repaired surface on the overall performance of the liner is assessed. Some preliminary rules and guidelines have also been proposed in order to quantify the acoustic effects of the damage. The acoustic impact of different intake liners on low-frequency reflections have been investigated by using computational models. The results show that high resistance liners are more effective in minimizing acoustic reflections within the intake
Fan Fiction and Copyright: Outsider Works and Intellectual Property Protection
No full textAs long as there have been fans, there has been fan fiction. There seems to be a fundamental human need to tell additional stories about the characters after the book, series, play or movie is over. But developments in information technology and copyright law have put these fan stories at risk of collision with the content owners’ intellectual property rights. Fan fiction has long been a nearly invisible form of outsider art, but over the past decade it has grown exponentially in volume and in legal importance. Because of its nature, authorship, and underground status, fan fiction stands at an intersection of key issues regarding property, sexuality, and gender. In Fan Fiction and Copyright, author Aaron Schwabach examines various types of fan-created content and asks whether and to what extent they are protected from liability for copyright infringement. Professor Schwabach discusses examples of original and fan works from a wide range of media, genres, and cultures. From Sherlock Holmes to Harry Potter, fictional characters, their authors, and their fans are sympathetically yet realistically assessed. Fan Fiction and Copyright looks closely at examples of three categories of disputes between authors and their fans: Disputes over the fans’ use of copyrighted characters, disputes over online publication of fiction resembling copyright work, and in the case of J.K. Rowling and a fansite webmaster, a dispute over the compiling of a reference work detailing an author's fictional universe. Offering more thorough coverage of many such controversies than has ever been available elsewhere, and discussing fan works from the United States, Brazil, China, India, Russia, and elsewhere, Fan Fiction and Copyright advances the understanding of fan fiction as transformative use and points the way toward a safe harbor\u9d for fan fiction
