    Does Downloading PowerPoint Slides Before the Lecture Lead to Better Student Achievement?: Reply

    No full text
    This reply responds to a comment by Cannon (2011) that opens the debate on consistency of the effect of downloading PowerPoint slides before lectures on students’ exam performance. Cannon (2011) points out potential endogeneity problems in Chen and Lin (2008) and attempts to explore the unconditional mean effect of downloading PowerPoint slides for the full sample. In this reply, we firstly argue that the estimates in our original article are consistent since the effect of interest is the “conditional†treatment effect but not the unconditional mean effect. We provide explanations for our rationale of estimating the “conditional†treatment effect. Secondly, we propose a modified downloading variable to replicate Cannon’s analysis. Our results suggest that downloading PowerPoint slides before the exam does not produce a significant effect on absent students’ exam performance which is different from the results in Cannon (2011). Our analysis does support Cannon’s argument that students fixed effects are different across different attendance status.

    This editorial presents two of Lin TIanmiao works, The Proliferation of Thread Winding and The Temptation of St. Theresa. Both works were presented at the exhibition, New Works, in Beijing, 1995. In the article, Karen Smith explores the male-female contrast present in both works. In doing so, she invokes the question of whether or not the nature of male and female in Lin\u27s work is intended to explore innate or socially constructed characteristics of these genders.

    No full text
    Tam Lin of the Winter Park is a collection of posthuman lyric poems which emerge from writing in situ in an urban parkland in Liverpool, as well as on the shores of the river Mersey, the Wirral peninsula and Ynys Mon (Isle of Anglesey). The poems expand into the otherworld beyond the walled garden and the shadows of the park’s secluded groves, into sea salt and river mud as the poet is transformed by these encounters with an animate world. Tam Lin of the Winter Park is Eleanor Rees’s fifth poetry collection, following The Well at Winter Solstice (Salt, 2019), Blood Child (Pavilion, 2015), Eliza and the Bear (Salt, 2009), and Andraste’s Hair (Salt, 2007), which was shortlisted for the Forward Prize for Best First Collection. She is the recipient of an Eric Gregory Award, an Irish Glen Dimplex New Writers’ Award and a Northern Writers’ Award, and a senior lecturer at Liverpool Hope University
