Fundamentals of Silicene, Authors: Guzmán-Verri Gian G., Lok C. Lew Yan Voon and Willatzen Morten
No full textSilicene1 is a single atomic layer of silicon (Si) much like graphene, the first example of an elemental twodimensional (2D) nanomaterial whose study led to the 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics.2 Until 2010 or so, the only known crystalline form of elemental silicon was the one with the so-called diamond structure (a threedimensionalcubic structure with sp3 -bonded Si atoms). That silicon could potentially form a 2D structure was first postulated by Takeda and Shiraishi.3,4 This early work and others, both theoretical5–7 and experimental,8,9 went mostly unnoticed until the prediction that silicene could have similar exotic properties as graphene by Guzmán-Verri and Lew Yan Voon in 2007,1 and silicene nanoribbons were reported to have been fabricated on a silver substrate by Kara et al. in 2009.10 Since then, the study of silicene has exploded, mainly theoretically11–527 but also experimentally.528–612 The interest in silicene is exactly the same as that for graphene2: in being two-dimensional and possessing a linear band structure, the so-called Dirac cone.1 One advantage relies on its possible application inelectronics, whereby its natural compatibility with the current Si technology might make fabrication much more of an industrial reality. We will concentrate this tutorial on the properties of a single freestanding silicene sheet. Freestanding means that the silicene sheet is not chemically or physically bonded to any other material. The feat with graphene was the ability to peel off a single layer of graphene from a piece of graphite, a process known as mechanical exfoliation. Such a layered precursor is missing for silicene. A close analogue, though, is calcium disilicide, indeed a layered material and the related process of chemicalexfoliation has been tried,8 with only partial success as the resulting product was mostly multilayers and functionalized. Not surprisingly, a number of review articles have already appeared that includes extensive discussions of silicone.309,603,613–646 The current review is more tutorial in nature

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
