    Transitioning from “traditional” to the “new normal” - what is in between? An editorial to BRIDGES symposium proceedings Vipava, Slovenia

    No full text
    The COVID-19 medical emergency resulted in a similar educational emergency as educators and learners at all levels were rapidly required to transition into online digital spaces, use digital tools and services that they may not have been familiar with, and adopt digital pedagogies that they may not have been used to. This created uncertainties bringing challenges and opportunities, and shed light on the affordances and constraints of digital tools. The Erasmus+ BRIDGES project has taken a research-led approach to understand the experiences of educators during the emergency remote teaching (ERT) period in order to inform practices, professional development and support needs in the post-lockdown, post-digital higher educational (HE) landscape. The BRIDGES Symposium has therefore brought together HE practitioners worldwide to reflect on the lessons learned. This editorial will briefly report on the findings of this project, and the emergent themes of the symposium and pose critical questions on lessons learned and the possible futures of digital education in multinational settings

    The Psychology of Morality

    No full text
    Five questions regarding the nature of the moral sense, the origin of conscience, the development of morality, variability in the moral sense, and the relation of morality to behavior are examined from the point of view of four theoretical approaches (psychoanalytic theory, social learning theory, cognitive-developmental theory, and evolutionary psychology). In addition, some concepts and findings from outside the four approaches are also touched upon. The moral sense is shown to be complex, comprising cognitions, feelings, and behaviors. The theoretical approaches disagree regarding the issues of whether conscience directly reflects social teaching, or is constructed by the developing individual. They also disagree on whether moral development is incremental or stagewise. Explanations of individual, gender, and cultural differences in morality differ across the four approaches. None of the approaches explains the relation of behavior to morality; rather, application of social psychological theories is suggested. More recent developments are briefly reviewed, supporting the view that the evolutionary approach and its extensions have become dominant in the field in recent years. Focus on social relations rather than individuals, emphasis on emotions rather than reason or action, pluralist views of the bases of morality, and functions of morality in group competition are highlighted as aspects of the newer approaches

Funded by SCOAP3 / License Version CC BY 4.0.Measurements are reported of the WZ and ZZ production cross sections in proton-proton collisions at s √ =8 TeV in final states where one Z boson decays to b-tagged jets. The other gauge boson, either W or Z, is detected through its leptonic decay (either W→eν , μν or Z→e + e − , μ + μ − , or νν ¯ ). The results are based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 18.9 fb −1 collected with the CMS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The measured cross sections, σ(pp→WZ)=30.7±9.3(stat.)±7.1(syst.)±4.1(th.)±1.0(lum.)pb and σ(pp→ZZ)=6.5±1.7(stat.)±1.0(syst.)±0.9(th.)±0.2(lum.)pb , are consistent with next-to-leading order quantum chromodynamics calculationsBMWF and FWF (Austria); FNRS and FWO (Belgium); CNPq, CAPES, FAPERJ, and FAPESP (Brazil); MES (Bulgaria); CERN; CAS, MoST, and NSFC (China); COLCIENCIAS (Colombia); MSES and CS (Croatia); RPF (Cyprus); MoER, SF0690030s09 and ERDF (Estonia); Academy of Finland, MEC, and HIP (Finland); CEA and CNRS/IN2P3 (France); BMBF, DFG, and HGF(Germany);GSRT(Greece);OTKAand NIH(Hungary);DAEand DST (India); IPM (Iran); SFI (Ireland); INFN (Italy); NRF and WCU (Republic of Korea); LAS (Lithuania);MOE and UM(Malaysia); CINVESTAV, CONACYT, SEP, and UASLP-FAI (Mexico); MBIE (New Zealand); PAEC (Pakistan); MSHE and NSC (Poland); FCT (Portugal); JINR (Dubna); MON, RosAtom, RAS and RFBR (Russia); MESTD (Serbia); SEIDI and CPAN (Spain); Swiss Funding Agencies (Switzerland); NSC (Taipei); ThEPCenter, IPST, STAR and NSTDA(Thailand); TUBITAK and TAEK (Turkey); NASU and SFFR (Ukraine); STFC (United Kingdom); DOE and NSF (USA)

With the technique of stream of conscience and internal monologue, the author expresses whatever he or she wants to say through the characters in his/her book. In expressions with such a technique, the reader comes to think that he or she is faced with a more convincing literary work, because the reader follows the characters without an intermediary help. The story writer enables the reader to ponder about the text, be busy with associations as well as to get involved in the process of the completion of the text. Such techniques of expression in which the story-teller plays very little intermediary role in expression and leave the reader all by himself aim to express much with few words. The reader tries to comprehend whatever the writer wishes to say from within a poetical expression. It becomes clear that such techniques are used to produce an expression made rich with symbols, images and associations. This article deals with what characteristics are provided by such techniques as the stream of conscience and internal monologue, techniques of expression, for the expression as well as with the reasons why the writer has chosen these techniques

    Natural frequency of beams with embedded piezoelectric sensors and actuators

    No full text
    A mathematical model is developed to study the natural frequency of beams with embedded piezoelectric sensors and actuators. The piezoelectric sensors/actuators in a non-piezoelectric matrix (host beam) are analyzed as two inhomogeneity problems by using Eshelby’s equivalent inclusion method. The natural frequency of the beam is determined from the variational principle in Rayleigh quotient form, which is expressed as functions of the elastic strain energy and dielectric energy of the piezoelectric sensors/actuators. The Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and Rayleigh-Ritz approximation technique are used in the present analysis. Parametric studies show that the size, volume fraction and location of the piezoelectric inclusions significantly influence the natural frequency of the beam

    BÜYÜK ŞEHRİN YALNIZ SAKİNİ: ALMAN VE İNGİLİZ MODERNİST ROMANINDA 1930’LAR BERLİN’İ F. Zeynep BİLGE/Şebnem SUNAR ÖZET 20. yüzyıl modernizminin coğrafyaları büyük şehirlerdir. Baudelaire’in Paris’i, Dostoyevski’nin Petersburg’u, Freud’un Viyana’sı, Kafka’nın Prag’ı gibi Berlin de 20. yüzyılın cazibe merkezlerinden biridir. Berlin’in iki dünya savaşı arasında sunduğu imge çokkatmanlı, kozmopolit bir şehrin görüntüsüdür. Daha 1. Dünya Savaşı’nın hemen ertesinde Berlin, modern çağın başat özelliği olarak kendini dayatan toplumsal düzensizliğin odak noktasıdır. Savaştan yenik çıkan Wilhelm Almanya’sı dağılmış, monarşik iktidarın sınıfsal istikrara dayanan yapısı yerini kimliklerin bulanıklaşıp rollerin değiştiği yeni, çoğunlukla da kaotik bir toplumsal alana ve bu alanın içinde hareket eden insanlara bırakmıştır. Bu çalışma, böylesi insan imgeleri üzerinden 1930’lar Berlin’inde gündelik yaşam deneyimlerineve bu deneyimlerin toplumsal dinamikler içindeki rolüne iki farklı ulusal edebiyatın, Alman ve İngiliz edebiyatlarının penceresinden bakacaktır. Irmgard Keun’unYalancı İpek Kız’ı ile Christopher Isherwood’unHoşça Kal Berlin’i, Weimar Cumhuriyeti’nin çöküş dönemiyle eşzamanlı Nasyonal Sosyalizm’in yükselişine ve bununla beraber Berlin’in geçirdiği dönüşümün boyutlarına şahitlik eder.Yalancı İpek Kız’da genç bir Alman kadının deneyimleri ileHoşça Kal Berlin’de orta yaşlı bir İngiliz erkeğinin yaşantıladıkları arasındaki benzerlikler/farklılıklar, 1930’lar Berlin’inin kapsamlı bir portresini çizer. Bu iki romanı şehir-birey etkileşimi bağlamında tartışmak, iki savaş arası modernizmin kıskacındaki bu büyük şehrin, sakinlerini (ister yabancı ister Alman olsun) ötekileştirdiğini göz önüne sermektedir. Anahtar Kelimeler:modernizm, büyük şehir, birey, Berlin, Weimar Cumhuriyeti, Irmgard Keun, Christopher Isherwoo
