Te Rau Puawai 2002-2004: An evaluation
No full textEstablished in 1999 as a joint workforce initiative between the former Health Funding Authority and Massey University, Te Rau Puawai aimed to support 100 Maori students to graduate with mental health qualifications within a five year period. The goal of Te Rau Puawai is to contribute to the building of capacity for Maori in the mental health workforce. The programme exceeded its performance expectations in the first two years (1999-2001) with 56 bursars completing their qualifications. Bursars achieved an 80% pass rate compared with 65% for all students at Massey University as a whole. In 2004, this pass rate has continued, a significant achievement in light of increasing numbers of bursars being accepted and many without previously studying at the tertiary level.
In 2001 the Maori & Psychology Research Unit (MPRU) at the University of Waikato undertook an evaluation of Te Rau Puawai reporting on the programme's success and identifying any barriers the programme needed to address. The 2002 evaluation report outlines critical success factors and recommendations for improvement. In 2003 Te Rau Puawai negotiated further funding from the Mental Health Directorate (MeHD) of the Ministry of Health under the Mental Health Workforce Development Strategy (2002). Workforce development is critical in building capacity and capability in the mental health workforce to increase appropriately skilled workers required to meet the mental health needs of Maori communities. In 2004 the Ministry of Health requested a follow-up evaluation to provide a descriptive record of programme activities and progress from April 2002 to December 2004. This report provides an overview of Te Rau Puawai activities between 2002 and 2004; the progress and contributions made by bursars to the mental health workforce; and a reassessment of the programme's critical success factors
Karl Heinrich Rau y el diagrama marshalliano de la oferta y la demanda
No full textEditada en la Fundación Empresa PúblicaEste trabajo muestra que el economista alemán Karl Heinrich Rau (1792-1870) merece ser justamente considerado como precursor del conocido diagrama marshalliano de la oferta y la demanda, o diagrama de las tijeras de Marshall. Marshall conoció la obra de Rau desde la temprana edad de su formación como economista, pero se refirió a él de forma incompleta y fuera de contexto, silenciando su pionera descripción gráfica del equilibrio competitivo. El artículo concluye poniendo de manifiesto que la conocida acusación schumpeteriana acerca de la falta de generosidad de Marshall con todos aquellos cuyos trabajos están íntimamente relacionados con el suyo se aplica igualmente al caso de Rau.This paper shows that the German economist Karl Heinrich Rau (1792-1870) deserves to be credited as precursor of the marshallian well-known diagram of the supply and demand, or Marshall's scissors diagram. Marshall was aware of Rau's work at an early stage in his economic studies, but he referred to him in an incomplete way and not where he should, silencing his pioneering graphic description of competitive equilibrium. The paper concludes by asserting that the well-known schumpeteriam claim on Marshall's lack of generosity with all those whose work was closely related to his own applies likewise to the case of Rau.Publicad
W-Band Real-Time Transmission Utilizing a Reconfigurable RAU for NG-PON Networks
No full textIn this article, we propose and test a reconfigurable Remote Access Unit (RAU) to interface optical and W-band wireless communication links (75–110 GHz), utilizing optical heterodyne signal upconversion. The RAU is composed of a tunable local oscillator, narrow optical filter and a control unit. The RAU can be software-reconfigured to select a specific dense wavelength division multiplexed (DWDM) channel. Real-time tests with 100 GHz spaced DWDM signals have been performed.Real-time 2.5 Gbit/s error free radio transmission in the 75 GHz to 95 GHz range of the W-band was achieved after 15 km of standard single mode fiber and 50 m of wireless link

Temperature dependence of the solvation dynamics in alkylcyanobiphenyls
No full textEarlier investigations of the solvation dynamics of the cationic dye rhodamine 700 in the isotropic phase of the nematogenic substance: octylcyanobiphenyl (Rau, J., Ferrante, C., Deeg, F. W., Brauchle, C. J. Phys. Chem. B 1999, 103, 931) have shown that in this liquid two different contributions to the solvation dynamics exist. The slower one can-be explained in terms of polar solvation, while the second one Is not yet fully understood. The latter one is temperature independent from the nematic-isotropic phase transition temperature. up to 20 K above the transition temperature. We present in this paper two different approaches to a better understanding of the solvation dynamics of the alkylcyanobiphenyls. First, it was investigated if a different member of the family of the alkylcyanobiphenyls, butylcyanobiphenyl, exhibits similar dynamic behavior. To check the possible influence of the probe chromophore, the neutral dye coumarin 153 was dissolved in octylcyanobiphenyl for a second set of measurements. The time-resolved dynamic Stokes shift S(t) was measured above the nematic-isotropic phase transition. Butylcyanobiphenyl with the probe chromophore rhodamine 700 -and octylcyanobiphenyl with coumarin 153 show qualitatively the same contributions as found in the solution of rhodamine 700 in octylcyanobiphenyl. From this, we conclude that the peculiar dynamics observed is characteristic for the whole family of the alkylcyanobiphenyls and not only for a special system of probe molecule and Liquid. In addition to the solvation dynamics the temperature dependence of the rotational relaxation times of the dye molecules was recorded

Nowe spojrzenie na planowanie architektury mieszkaniowej w afryce subsaharyjskiej
No full textThe author shares his reflections on state of art in housing and urban planning, deficiencies, expectations and possibilities in the Sahel region of Africa. He notices, that the housing problem in Africa is one of the challenges, which should be solved in order to recover life dignity of African people and secure their rights to traditional family life in acceptable conditions. The paper describes the studies on the typical dispersed urban structures and the need to foster this type of settlement structure and proposals of introduction of new on light steel frame housing system in the area of Sahel, combining the traditional way of building houses with modern technology. The particularly analysed case, is the housing problem in the Republic of Chad. The author presents the basic discussion on this topic and his architectural proposals. Unfortunately, the gap between the needs and the financial feasibility of housing construction in this area, makes this project already at the starting point extremely difficult to be realized without external subventions.Problem mieszkaniowy w Afryce jest jednym z wyzwań, które należy rozwiązać, aby Afrykanie mogli odzyskać godność życiową i zabezpieczyć swoje prawa do tradycyjnego życia rodzinnego w akceptowalnych warunkach. W artykule opisano badania nad typowymi rozproszonymi strukturami miejskimi i potrzebą wspierania tego typu struktur osadniczych oraz propozycji wprowadzenia nowego systemu konstrukcji domów, opartym na lekkim szkielecie stalowym, łączącym tradycyjny sposób budowania domów z nowoczesną technologią. Przypadkiem szczególnie analizowanym jest problem mieszkaniowy w Republice Czadu. Autor przedstawia podstawową dyskusję na ten temat i swoje propozycje architektoniczne. Niestety luka między potrzebami mieszkaniowymi w Czadzie a finansową wykonalnością budownictwa mieszkaniowego w tym obszarze sprawia, że projekt ten, już w punkcie wyjścia, jest niezwykle trudny do realizacji bez uzyskania zewnętrznych dotacji
