Correction to: ‘Aboriginal Voices’: An overview of the methodology applied in the systematic review of recent research across ten key areas of Australian Indigenous education (The Australian Educational Researcher, (2019), 46, 2, (213-229), 10.1007/s13384-019-00307-5)
No full textIn the original publication of the article, the author name “Cathie Burgess” was inadvertently missed in the author group. The correct author group is “Kevin Lowe · Christine Tennent · John Guenther · Neil Harrison · Cathie Burgess · Nikki Moodie · Greg Vass”. Cathie Burgess coordinates Aboriginal Studies, Aboriginal Community Engagement and the Master of Education: Leadership in Aboriginal Education programs at the University of Sydney. Cathie’s research involves community-led initiatives positioning Aboriginal cultural educators as experts through projects such as Learning from Country in the City, Aboriginal Voices: Insights into Aboriginal Education and Redfern Cultural Program.

Reducing domestic energy consumption through inclusive interface design
No full textThis thesis was submitted for the degree of Engineering Doctorate and awarded by Brunel University.With housing in the UK responsible for over a quarter of all building related carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, it is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore the impact
of occupant behaviour on such emissions. One area where occupant behaviour contributes largely towards emissions is space heating within domestic buildings. Despite technological improvements in the efficiency of heating systems, controls have become increasingly complex. Hence, there is a need to enable people to use their heating controls effectively in order to help reduce the associated CO2 emissions. This research found that significant numbers of people were excluded from using digital programmable thermostats, in particular people over 50 years old. The first study examined the scale of exclusion relating to digital programmable thermostats installed at a specific housing development. A second study explored in detail the reasons for exclusion from successfully programming
a range of digital programmable thermostats. This was an in-depth usability study of heating controls that focused on the usability issues experienced by older people and was published in the Journal of Engineering Design. Based upon the outcomes of the first two studies a more inclusive heating control interface prototype was developed. The prototype demonstrated a reduction in both cognitive demands and associated user exclusion. Task success rates increased by 56.3% amongst older participants, and detailed energy modelling indicated that energy savings of 14.5-15.6% annually could be achievable. This work suggests that a more inclusive heating control interface could enable energy savings in the region of 15% through reducing the cognitive demands. Furthermore, this research challenges the existing paradigm and shows that inclusive design research may contribute to sustainable development in an environmental, as well as social, capacity.This study is funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and Buro Happold Ltd

Measurement of the ratio of prompt χ c to J / ψ production in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV
No full textThe prompt production of charmonium χ c and J / ψ states is studied in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. The χ c and J / ψ mesons are identified through their decays χ c → J / ψ γ and J / ψ → μ + μ - using 36 pb - 1 of data collected by the LHCb detector in 2010. The ratio of the prompt production cross-sections for χ c and J / ψ, σ (χ c → J / ψ γ) / σ (J / ψ), is determined as a function of the J / ψ transverse momentum in the range 2 < p T J / ψ < 15 GeV / c. The results are in excellent agreement with next-to-leading order non-relativistic expectations and show a significant discrepancy compared with the colour singlet model prediction at leading order, especially in the low p T J / ψ region
Mellifluous music in early western Christianity
No full text This chapter explores the place of ‘sweet music’ in the early Western Church and its subsequent influence on the earliest theologies of music, of creation, and of God. The author begins by reflecting on the account of 4th-century bishop of Minorca, Severus, and his description of music’s role in the Christian conversion of Jews on the island. There it served as a miraculous and ‘mellifluous assault on the senses’, something that could evoke both delight or terror depending on the hearer’s condition, and was believed to be God’s own presence at work in the human soul. Harrison then turns to Augustine and how he developed his own theology – and psychology – of music in De Musica, drawing on the influence of the hymns of Ambrose of Milan. She explores Augustine’s account of the soul’s apprehension of sound, wherein a sensuous and spiritual experience is made possible by a God whose grace and providential order are diffused through His creation, despite humanity’s (and the world’s) fallen state. Throughout this early period, Harrison concludes, we see a Church fascinated by music’s pleasing sweetness as something beneficial to faith and ultimately a sign of God’s presence. </p
