Building Quality Assurance into Metadata Creation: an Analysis based on the Learning Objects and e-Prints Communities of Practice
Get PDFThis paper challenges some of the assumptions underlying the metadata creation process in the context of two communities of practice, based around learning object repositories and open e-Print archives. The importance of quality assurance for metadata creation is discussed and evidence from the literature, from the practical experiences of repositories and archives, and from related research and practices within other communities is presented. Issues for debate and further investigation are identified, formulated as a series of key research questions. Although there is much work to be done in the area of quality assurance for metadata creation, this paper represents an important first step towards a fuller understanding of the subject.
Race, the senses, and the materials of writing practices
No full textThe paper is a critical argument foregrounding race, the senses, and the materials of literacy practices. The author argues that counter-colonial literacies in the contemporary times require openly acknowledgement of the influences of white imperialism and racism in dominant schooling practices. The first concern is narrow conceptions of literacy and schooling that follow a white racial script, and which function as a form of historical reproduction, control, and privilege. The second is the need to acknowledge the need to rediscover the sensory nature of literacy practices that is intrinsic to many cultures, and which is transformed in human interactions with new digital forms of textual production. The final argument is the need to attend to the materiality of literacy practices, including the meanings connected to the material ecology. This principle is particularly relevant to Indigenous culture and experience, but likewise, to all digital environments where the materials of literacy practices are continually shifting

Model dialkyl peroxides of the Fenton mechanistic probe 2-methyl-1-phenyl-2-propyl hydroperoxide (MPPH): kinetic probes for dissociative electron transfer
No full textTwo dialkyl peroxides, devised as kinetic probes for the heterogeneous electron transfer (ET), are studied using heterogeneous and homogeneous electrochemical techniques. The peroxides react by concerted dissociative ET reduction of the O-O bond. Under heterogeneous conditions, the only products isolated are the corresponding alcohols from a two-electron reduction as has been observed with other dialkyl peroxides studied to date. However, under homogeneous conditions, a generated alkoxyl radical undergoes a rapid beta-scission fragmentation in competition with the second ET resulting in formation of acetone and a benzyl radical. With knowledge of the rate constant for fragmentation and accounting for the diffuse double layer at the electrode interface, the heterogeneous ET rate constant to the alkoxyl radicals is estimated to be 1500 cm s(-1). The heterogeneous and homogeneous ET kinetics of the O-O bond cleavage have also been measured and examined as a function of the driving force for ET, DeltaG(ET), using dissociative electron transfer theory. From both sets of kinetics, besides the evaluation of thermochemical parameters, it is demonstrated that the heterogeneous and homogeneous reduction of the O-O bond appears to be non-adiabatic.PT: J; CR: *NIST, 2003, NIST STAND REF DAT P ANDO W, 1992, ORGANIC PEROXIDES ANDRIEUX CP, 1978, J ELECTROANAL CHEM, V87, P39 ANDRIEUX CP, 1980, J ELECTROANAL CHEM, V113, P19 ANDRIEUX CP, 1992, J AM CHEM SOC, V114, P6892 ANTONELLO S, 1997, J AM CHEM SOC, V119, P12595 ANTONELLO S, 1997, J AM CHEM SOC, V119, P9541 ANTONELLO S, 1999, J AM CHEM SOC, V121, P9668 ANTONELLO S, 2001, J AM CHEM SOC, V123, P9577 ANTONELLO S, 2002, J AM CHEM SOC, V124, P11503 ANTONELLO S, 2003, J AM CHEM SOC, V125, P2874 ARENDS IWCE, 1995, J AM CHEM SOC, V117, P4710 BARD AJ, 2001, ELECTROCHEMICAL METH BARTON DHR, 1992, ACCOUNTS CHEM RES, V25, P504 BARTON DHR, 1994, TETRAHEDRON, V50, P19 BARTON DHR, 1996, CHEM SOC REV, V25, P237 BARTON DHR, 1996, SYNLETT, P229 BENSON SW, 1976, THERMOCHEMCIAL KINET CARDINALE A, 2002, ELECTROCHEM COMMUN, V4, P767 CASTEEL DA, 1992, NAT PROD REP, V9, P289 CASTEEL DA, 1999, NAT PROD REP, V16, P55 CHEN K, 1999, CHEM COMMUN, P1375 CHEN K, 2001, J AM CHEM SOC, V123, P6327 CHEN K, 2002, J CHEM SOC DA, V5, P672 COOKSON PG, 1976, J CHEM SOC CHEM COMM, P1022 DAASBJERG K, 1991, ACTA CHEM SCAND, V45, P424 DAASBJERG K, 1993, ACTA CHEM SCAND, V47, P398 DAASBJERG K, 1999, GEN ASPECTS CHEM RAD, P385 DEMONTELLANO PRO, 1995, CYTOCHROME P450 STRU DONKERS RL, 1998, J PHYS CHEM B, V102, P4061 DONKERS RL, 1999, CHEM COMMUN 0121, P135 DONKERS RL, 1999, J AM CHEM SOC, V121, P7239 DONKERS RL, 2001, CHEM-EUR J, V7, P4012 FUHLENDORFF R, 1989, ACTA CHEM SCAND, V43, P803 GROVES JT, 1985, J CHEM EDUC, V62, P928 GROVES JT, 1995, CYTOCHROME P450 STRU, P3 HAGHBEEN K, 1998, J ORG CHEM, V63, P4503 HAPIOT P, 1995, J AM CHEM SOC, V117, P1428 HIATT RR, 1963, J ORG CHEM, V28, P1893 HORNING EC, 1955, SYNTHESIS AZOBENZENE, V3, P103 HOWARD JA, 1997, RADICAL REACTION RAT, V18 HU Z, 2000, BIOMIMETIC OXIDATION, P269 IMBEAUX JC, 1973, J ELECTROANAL CHEM, V44, P169 INGOLD KU, 2000, BIOMIMETIC OXIDATION, P45 JENSEN MP, 2003, J AM CHEM SOC, V125, P2113 KELLNER DG, 2002, J BIOL CHEM, V277, P9641 KIM J, 1996, J AM CHEM SOC, V118, P4373 KJAER NT, 1995, ACTA CHEM SCAND, V49, P848 KOJIMA H, 1975, J AM CHEM SOC, V97, P6317 KOJIMA T, 1993, J AM CHEM SOC, V115, P11328 LANGE SJ, 1999, J AM CHEM SOC, V121, P6330 LEISING RA, 1990, INORG CHEM, V29, P2553 LEISING RA, 1991, J AM CHEM SOC, V113, P8555 LEISING RA, 1993, J AM CHEM SOC, V115, P9524 LUND H, 1997, ACTA CHEM SCAND, V51, P135 LUND T, 1987, ACTA CHEM SCAND B, V41, P93 LUND T, 2003, ORG BIOMOL CHEM, V1, P1020 MACFAUL PA, 1997, J AM CHEM SOC, V119, P10594 MACFAUL PA, 1997, J CHEM SOC PERK FEB, P135 MACFAUL PA, 1998, ACCOUNTS CHEM RES, V31, P159 MAGRI DC, 2001, J PHOTOCH PHOTOBIO A, V138, P29 MARAN F, 2001, ADV PHYS ORG CHEM, V36, P85 MARCUS RA, 1985, BIOCHIM BIOPHYS ACTA, V811, P265 MASADA H, 1980, B CHEM SOC JPN, V53, P1181 MCLAIN JL, 2000, BIOMIMETIC OXIDATION, P91 MEUNIER B, 2000, BIOMIMETIC OXIDATION, P171 MIYAKE H, 2001, INORG CHEM, V40, P3534 NADJO L, 1985, J ELECTROANAL CH INF, V196, P23 NEIMANN K, 1999, INORG CHEM, V38, P3575 OCCHIALINI D, 1990, ACTA CHEM SCAND, V44, P715 OCCHIALINI D, 1992, ACTA CHEM SCAND, V46, P474 OCCHIALINI D, 1993, ACTA CHEM SCAND, V47, P1100 PEDERSEN SU, 1989, ACTA CHEM SCAND, V43, P301 PEDERSEN SU, 1991, ACTA CHEM SCAND, V45, P397 PEDERSEN SU, 1998, ACTA CHEM SCAND, V52, P657 PERKINS MJ, 1996, CHEM SOC REV, V25, P229 PERRIN CL, 2000, J AM CHEM SOC, V122, P4569 RABION A, 1995, J AM CHEM SOC, V117, P12356 ROHDE JU, 2003, SCIENCE, V299, P1037 ROSENZWEIG AC, 1994, ACCOUNTS CHEM RES, V27, P229 SAVEANT JM, 1975, J ELECTROANAL CHEM, V61, P251 SAVEANT JM, 1985, J ELECTROANAL CH INF, V196, P1 SAVEANT JM, 1993, ACCOUNTS CHEM RES, V26, P455 SAVEANT JM, 1994, ADV ELECT T, V4, P53 SAVEANT JM, 2000, ADV PHYS ORG CHEM, V35, P117 SAVEANT JM, 2002, J PHYS CHEM B, V106, P9387 SAWYER DT, 1996, ACCOUNTS CHEM RES, V29, P409 SCHLICHTING I, 2000, SCIENCE, V287, P1615 SNELGROVE DW, 1996, TETRAHEDRON LETT, V37, P823 SONO M, 1996, CHEM REV, V96, P2841 STRINGLE DLB, 2003, CHEM COMMUN, P1246 WALLING C, 1975, ACCOUNTS CHEM RES, V8, P125 WALLING C, 1998, ACCOUNTS CHEM RES, V31, P155 WAYNER DDM, 1988, J AM CHEM SOC, V110, P132 WAYNER DDM, 1993, ACCOUNTS CHEM RES, V26, P287 WORKENTIN MS, 1995, J AM CHEM SOC, V117, P2120 WORKENTIN MS, 1998, J AM CHEM SOC, V120, P2664 ZANG Y, 1997, J AM CHEM SOC, V119, P4197; NR: 98; TC: 4; J9: ORG BIOMOL CHEM; PG: 12; GA: 725MRSource type: Electronic(1
ExoMol line lists - III. An improved hot rotation-vibration line list for HCN and HNC
No full textA revised rotation-vibration line list for the combined hydrogen cyanide (HCN)/hydrogen isocyanide (HNC) system is presented. The line list uses ab initio transition intensities calculated previously and extensive data sets of recently measured experimental energy levels. The resulting line list has significantly more accurate wavelengths than previous ones for these systems. An improved value for the separation between HCN and HNC is adopted, leading to an approximately 25 per cent lower predicted thermal population of HNC as a function of temperature in the key 2000 to 3000 K region. Temperature-dependent partition functions and equilibrium constants are presented. The line lists are validated by comparison with laboratory spectra and are presented in full as supplementary data to the article and at www.exomol.com

Opportunities for the development of geometrical reasoning in current textbooks in the UK and Japan
No full textDeveloping a good model of the school geometry curriculum continues to be one of the most important tasks in curricular design in mathematics. This paper reports on an initial analysis of current best-selling textbooks used in lower secondary schools in Japan and the UK (specifically England and Scotland). The analysis indicates that, following the specification of the mathematics curriculum in these countries, Japanese textbooks set out to develop students’ deductive reasoning skills through the explicit teaching of proof in geometry, whereas comparative UK textbooks tend, at this level, to concentrate on finding angles, measurement, drawing, and so on, coupled with a modicum of opportunities for conjecturing and inductive reasoning. The available research suggests that each approach has its own strengths and weaknesses. Finding ways of capitalising on the strengths and mitigating the weaknesses could prove helpful in formulating new curricular models and designing new student textbooks
Measurement of differential production cross-sections and forward-backward ratio in p+Pb collisions with the ATLAS detector

All figures including auxiliary figures are available at http://atlas.web.cern.ch/Atlas/GROUPS/PHYSICS/PAPERS/HION-2013-07/International audienceMeasurements of differential cross-sections for production in p+Pb collisions at = 5.02 TeV at the LHC with the ATLAS detector are presented. The data set used corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 28.1 nb. The mesons are reconstructed in the dimuon decay channel over the transverse momentum range GeV and over the center-of-mass rapidity range . Prompt are separated from resulting from -hadron decays through an analysis of the distance between the decay vertex and the event primary vertex. The differential cross-section for production of nonprompt is compared to a FONLL calculation that does not include nuclear effects. Forward-backward production ratios are presented and compared to theoretical predictions. These results constrain the kinematic dependence of nuclear modifications of charmonium and -quark production in p+Pb collisions
