This video looks at how multilingual students already use translanguaging in their computer science classes and discusses how CS educators can further support them with translanguaging pedagogy, a framework that prompts teachers to consider their stance, design, and shifts.

Sequential removal of radioactive Cs by electrochemical adsorption and desorption reaction using core-shell structured carbon nanofiber–Prussian blue composites
No full text137Cs is harmful to human health and the environment; hence, research on new techniques and development of materials for removing from contaminated water have attracted attention. Herein, we demonstrate that core-shell structured Prussian blue–carbon nanofiber (PB–CNF) composites, synthesized by electrodeposition, can be used to effectively remove radioactive 137Cs via electrochemical adsorption/desorption. PB nanoparticles with thicknesses of tens of nanometers were electrochemically formed on the CNF core with a diameter of approximately 100 nm; the exact weight of PB on CNF was 2.75 mg/cm2. The PB–CNF electrodes more efficiently adsorbed and desorbed the Cs ions than the existing PB–FTO electrode and PB–commercial carbon cloth. Transmission electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analyses confirmed that the Cs ions removed from the solution were adsorbed on PB rather than on CNF. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis confirmed that the oxidation state of iron in PB changes depending on the Cs ion adsorption and desorption reaction. Cycling experiments of electrochemical adsorption and desorption using PB–CNF showed that radioactive 137Cs and non-radioactive Cs ions can be continuously removed from radioactive wastewater and accumulated in a specific solution. These results imply that the PB–CNF composite can efficiently remove radioactive Cs and significantly reduce secondary radioactive waste. Moreover, the composite is reusable and can aid the establishment of a low-cost alternative Cs removal process. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.1

No full textArizona Then and Now: Exploring Arizona's Five Cs Through Photography
No full textabstract: Arizona Then and Now: Exploring Arizona's Five Cs Through Photography is a photographic exploration of the evolution of Arizona's five Cs: cotton, copper, citrus, cattle, and climate. This project first looks to the past to see how these five elements shaped the state of Arizona. Photographs were taken across the valley of these elements, or lack thereof, discovering what Arizona has transformed into in the process. Each chapter of the book begins with a brief history of the element focused on in that chapter, followed by an analytical thought about the photographs taken and how the element has evolved. Each chapter shows two historical photographs followed by a series of photographs taken during the project that the author thought depicted what is seen today. The book ends on a final positive note about how the five Cs are not dead, but soon could be completely taken over. This project was a way for a non-art major to explore the state that she grew up while also challenging herself by more than just taking pictures. The photographs displayed in the book depict a sampling of what the author saw that is left of the five Cs
IR-improved DGLAP-CS QCD parton showers in Pythia8
No full textAbstractWe introduce the recently developed IR-improved DGLAP-CS theory into the showers in Pythia8, as this Monte Carlo event generator is in wide use at LHC. We show that, just as it was true in the IR-improved shower Monte Carlo Herwiri, which realizes the IR-improved DGLAP-CS theory in the Herwig6.5 environment, the soft limit in processes such as single heavy gauge boson production is now more physical in the IR-improved DGLAP-CS theory version of Pythia8. This opens the way to one’s getting a comparison between the actual detector simulations for some of the LHC experiments between IR-improved and unimproved showers as Pythia8 is used in detector simulations at LHC whereas Herwig6.5, the environment of the only other IR-improved DGLAP-CS QCD MC in the literature, Herwiri1.031, is not any longer so used. Our achieving the availability of the IR-improved DGLAP-CS Pythia8 then is an important step in the further development of the LHC precision theory program under development by the author and his collaborators
