This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -There is criticism that the traditional high school is not serving the needs of students who are failing high school and rapidly dropping out. The high school dropout rate is alarming, for every ten students that start high school in California only seven complete and many more are being increasingly recognized as at-risk. The purpose of this qualitative research was to look at the effect a caring teacher has on the retention of the at-risk student within the alternative school setting. Eleven male at-risk students, ages 18 to 21, attending two alternative schools were identified, and face-to-face in-depth interviews were held. 144 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Repetition, decoration, a story This book is a personal artistic examination of decorative and narrative pattern making through art practice from two cultural perceptions- Slavic and Australian. The existing differences between the two cultural backgrounds have been used to describe and debate how pattern is understood by the viewer or practiced by an artist in a particular chosen environment. The central argument focuses on pattern as a decorator and/or a narrator. This book takes the reader through the outcomes and changes in narrative pattern according to cultural context and exchange. By introducing Slavic pattern into contemporary (Australian) art practice, the artist examines how traditional cultural values and functions change. In discussing the processes of changes that occur in intercultural exchange, the artist draws opinions and observations from past artists and theorists such as William Morris, Lucien Henry and Jean-Francois Lyotard as well as from the artists own personal visual practice using pattern. 132 pp. Englisch.

The judgement of space is subject to sensory input, yet the capacity of aural perception is often overlooked due to the visual nature of our society. Sound is a highly influential medium, and integral to our ability to comprehend physical and metaphysical volumes. Aural data can impact and manipulate volumetric discernment through existing as a physical space and, theoretically, the foundation of all space. 52 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This study focuses on the experiences of children, between eight and twelve years old, who have used the services of a community based social work agency. The children offered direct reports of their own experience of the service. Their views offer profound and subtle insights into the experience of being a child client. The study focused on issues of consultation and participation, the qualities of the relationship between the children and their worker, the children s views of changes in their lives and what helped to achieve these, and the children s advice to others arising from their experiences. The children expressed their views clearly and with considerable depth. They spoke positively of their relationships with their family workers and clearly valued these. This highlights the need for the relationship between the child and the family worker to be respected and for children s views to be considered in planning social work. The findings of this study suggest that not only can in-house research be valuable in informing practice, but also that participants prior knowledge of the researcher may promote a higher level of participation. 96 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This study isolates the most prevalent devices in trombonist Hal Crooks' style of improvising over a two year recording period, and discusses the use of these devices in relation to a variety of familiar jazz analysis categories. In order to gain an insight into the improvisational style of Crook it is necessary to examine the recurring musical ideas common to his improvisations. It is not the intention of this study to try to determine Crook's intuitive processes when improvising, but merely to categorise his most abundant and therefore, we assume, most practiced and consciously chosen structures. The method for analysis used in this paper will take the form of a survey of core material, ie, categorising similar fragments from each of the solos into isolated cells to be compared. Each cell will then fit into a larger category such as Harmonic, Melodic or Rhythmic devices. With similar devices highlighted side by side it should become apparent as to Crook's more favoured approaches to musical situations. This data is then compared to devices discussed in Crook's own improvising literature. The analysis is supported with three transcriptions which provide the data for this study. 112 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -A dramatic upsurge in the number of students with learning disabilities (LD) who attended college has occurred since the 1970s. The granting of accommodations to students with LD and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or both was important for their success in postsecondary education. Key to the provision of these services was the attitude of faculty towards granting the accommodations. This study examined the attitudes of faculty members at community colleges which had specialized programs for students with LD or ADHD towards granting these accommodations. These attitudes were assessed through a questionnaire. The questionnaire assessed three attitudes: willingness to make accommodation confidence that the accommodations will make a difference, and belief that accommodations would threaten the integrity of the course. The questionnaire divided accommodations into two large groups: instruction accommodations and evaluation and material accommodations. This study also included a qualitative component in that the questionnaire included some open-ended questions and some respondents were interviewed. 400 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Collaboration promoted and supported by instructional technology has the potential to lead learners to deeper understanding and knowledge building. There have been optimistic views that any web-based interaction can be educationally valuable. However, online learning environments do not, as such, guarantee that learners will achieve genuine collaboration. It seems that there are several difficulties facing those who wish to employ online learning environments as a medium for productive learner interaction. The particular aim of this exploration of interaction and learning in computer-supported collaborative learning environments was to study the interplay between learners and consider the ways in which they built and maintained common ground so as to enable themselves to work and learn together. Another aim was to look at the effects of scripting interaction with a view to finding out how scripting can enhance or hamper collaboration. The work opens up a perspective on online communication as a distinctive type of human interchange whose special features challenge designers, researchers, teachers and learners involved in computer-supported collaborative learning. 120 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In low-income countries, such as Bangladesh, elderly health care is uninformed and undeveloped due to inadequate data on health, disabilities and social conditions of elderly people. In Bangladesh, research and public health activities have so far largely focused on nutritional aspects related to children and women in reproductive age. Importantly, by 2020 with a projected 14 million elderly people, Bangladesh will be one of the 10 nations in the world with the largest elderly population. This book will enable us to inform about the magnitude of the prevalence of malnutrition among the rural elderly population, which is important to address 'who' are the malnourished to eradicate extreme poverty and hunger - the first of the 8 stated goals by the United Nations to meet the MDGs. It will also provide what are the determinants of malnutrition and will also explain how disease and non-disease related factors contribute differently on malnutrition, which is very important in context of poverty. It will also be useful in understanding how functional ability in an aged population is effected by ill health and malnutrition. 88 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The study of the kinetics and kinematics of the hand and wrist is a demanding task, mainly due to the number of the joints involved, the multivariate positions the fingers may take and the numerous tasks the hand is called upon to perform. In this work, thirty right-hand dominant adults with no previous hand or wrist trauma, asked to develop a maximal isometric grip force on a custom-built grip tool for five different wrist orientations: maximal flexion, extension, radial and ulnar deviation, and a position of functional neutral''. Kinetic data collection was synchronized with an eight-camera motion analysis system in order to obtain concurrent kinematic data of each finger/thumb segment, the wrist and forearm. The loads on the fingertips as well as on the metacarpophalangeal joints were then calculated for every wrist orientation, in order to understand the functionality of the hand and wrist complex. This is an essential knowledge for orthopaedic surgeons, who make decisions that include reduction of the mobility of the wrist joint, rheumatologists, rehabilitation professions, joint implant designers, manufacturers of tools and equipments, ergonomics and sports scientists. 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Recently, the Internet has become a new and exciting method of information exchange. Unfortunately, it has also become the most ambiguous medium to measure effectively. Many Web developers miss the overall understanding of how Web sites could be more successful and beneficial for the users. Essentially, they miss the opportunity to use the Web as a public relations tool. This is especially true for institutions of higher education. Even when institutions use various public relations methods they are not guaranteed successful Web ventures. Therefore, research must be done to understand how the Web can be used more effectively to build relationships through information exchange between institutions and their various constituencies. This study will focus on one constituency in particular: prospective students. By understanding the various Web strategies currently being used to communicate with prospective students and how, from the students perspectives, these strategies contribute to their impressions of the institutions as a whole, this research study will delve into this much needed area of investigation. 68 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Slag arising from smelting in the production of ferrochrome alloys, stainless steel and Platinum group metals (PGM) is known to contain residual chromium in various phases within the slag matrix. Although the bulk of slag ends up on landfills, slag is used in the construction, agriculture and marine industry among others. It is the aim of this study to investigate the development of a method, which by eliminating the diffusion limitations of atmospheric oxygen through the bulk of slag mass and individual particles will speed up the oxidation of residual Cr(III). Possible means of reducing diffusion resistances in slags at ambient temperature thus need to be identified. Fluidisation techniques are investigated due to their ability to increase gas-solid contact area and enhance mass transfer. However exploratory investigations into the effects of microwave irradiation on slag samples are also presented. The specific aim of this study is to design, construct, commission and evaluate a laboratory scale fluidised bed suitable to fluidise slag particles of Geldart A and Geldart B classification. 100 pp. Englisch.

The stability of the multiplier is tested in two separate notions: that of the short-run predictability and the long-run stability. The parametric components of the money multiplier, i.e. the currency and reserve ratios are further investigated since the test results suggest the existence of an unstable multiplier in Turkey. The long run equilibrium relation between the supply of money, national income, and the rate of inflation is estimated using Engle- Granger two step method to construct the cointegrating relation and to specify the error correction mechanism for the mpney demand function in Turkey. Finally, we report our empirical findings and discuss the policy requirements of an unstable multiplier for Turkish Economy. 76 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -A smart object system encompasses the synergy between computationally augmented smart objects and pervasive applications and has emerged as one of the principal technologies to embrace the recent paradigm of people centric computing. This dissertation has focused on the development of a software framework for building smart object systems. It provides a theoretical foundation for smart object systems and presents a set of requirements and component abstractions for a supporting infrastructure. A document based framework is developed where applications' requirements and smart objects' services are objectified through structured documents. A runtime infrastructure provides the spontaneous federation between smart objects and applications. The dissertation at hand has also looked at what aspects of software architecture can manifest themselves as a part of the user experience. Particularly this work argues that by involving end users in the deployment and administration of smart object systems, it is possible to elevate end user experiences. Accordingly, this dissertation exposes as set of user centric architectural qualities by slightly shifting framework's focus onto end users. 160 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Neurological diseases in newborns are usually first revealed by seizures, which are characterised by a synchronous discharge of a large number of neurons. Failure to control seizures may lead to brain damage or even death. Neonatal EEG seizures can have signatures in both low frequency (lower than 10 Hz) and high frequency (higher than 70 Hz) areas. The seizures detection techniques proposed in the literature concentrated on using either low frequency or high frequency signatures but not both simultaneously. These methods tend to miss the seizures that reveal themselves only in one of the two frequency areas. The author proposed a detection method that uses seizure features in both low and high frequency areas. 156 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -A novel electrophysiological cardiac model is introduced in this book. The proposed framework for cardiac modeling considers six key regions that characterize the cardiac electrical activity. This allows the model to solve the forward and inverse electrocardiology problems in near real time. The major drawback of the current cardiac modeling methods is the computational complexity because they model more than 100,000 cells of the heart. This complexity does not allow the current techniques to be used in near real time diagnostics. In contrast to the previous models, the proposed cardiac model is used as a basis for two near real time clinical diagnostic applications. The first is the detection of an ischemic heart. The second is the localization of myocardial infarction. A brief overview of the cardiac activity is presented. Additionally, a historical review of the related fields is discussed. The proposed electrophysiological cardiac modeling method, including the cardiac model, forward and inverse problems solutions, and the diagnostic applications are described in detail. 140 pp. Englisch.

For crops they will need to show improved drought tolerance and thermotolerance. There are two approaches were used to identify the genetic basis for improved thermotolerance. In one set of approaches a gain-of-function heat stress screen was performed on a collection of Activation Tagged lines. Three mutants have been isolated; in subsequent generations one of the lines developed a hypersensitive phenotype, another reverted to wild type, whilst the third retained its thermotolererant phenotype. In the other set of approaches transgenic lines carrying a construct designed to constitutively express a MYB transcription factor were characterized. This MYB has been shown to confer salinity tolerance. Quantitative PCR demonstrated the expression of some response genes in the transgenic lines. These transgenic lines were shown to have an improved thermotolerance. This studies should provide strong preliminary pictures on the genetic engineering for thermotolerance and should be especially useful to research and academic player in plant science field. 128 pp. Englisch.

This Grounded Theory study explored the experiences and perceptions of independent living among older German women living alone. Twenty-four women, aged 68 to 88, living in three cities in Germany were interviewed. Findings include three dimensions that characterize the perceptions of independence: 'being able to be' -- the internal and mental factors that support independence; 'being able to do' - the physical or 'external' factors in the women's environment, and individual background factors and current states of well-being. Findings support the assumption that independent living is a multi-layered concept. In contrast to the published literature which emphasizes physical functioning, it was clear that 'being able to be' was more important to older German women than 'being able to do.' In addition, many facilitating factors and constraining factors , as well as coping strategies, were identified, several of which have not been discussed in the literature to date. 132 pp. Englisch.

However, an increasingly expanding basis of our knowledge of natural processes and engineering requirements, and social awareness have led to the formulation of problems requiring a large number of criteria. This has posed a serious challenge for traditional MOEAs, and has led researchers to begin investigating the issues related to the optimization of problems with more than three objectives, usually referred to as Many-Objective Problems. Motivated by the need to provide researchers and practitioners interested in water resources engineering with an optimization method to effectively solve problems formulated with many objectives, this thesis is an effort to advance in the field of Evolutionary Many-objective Optimisation. In order to meet this goal, this book provides a review and analysis of the issues arising in this setting, describes a new methodology, demonstrates its effectiveness through extensive experiments and shows the relevance to the water resources engineering field through a case study. 188 pp. Englisch.

These potential feedstuffs are not widely used either for animal production or other purposes. Due to their high fibre contents, imbalanced amino acids, Maillard products (due to heat damage during drying and oil extraction processes) and their susceptibility to mould attack, these by-products have been regarded as low quality feedstuffs. However, if their value could be improved so that their inclusion in animal feeds resulted in good production, there would be a large number of benefits. This book, therefore, provides ways to improve the feeding values of these two agricultural feedstuffs, either by enzymatic or physical treatments. 192 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The Mexican Constitution establishes the obligation to found and motivate every act of authority, including judicial decisions. This obligation has been a vital protection to people s right and liberties in Mexico against illegal acts from the authorities. Unfortunately, the New York Convention does not obligate arbitrators to reason the awards. This situation may generate a conflict of law within the Mexican legal system, that is, between the Constitution and the application of the New York Convention. The Constitution is unanimously considered by the Mexican doctrine and, more importantly, by the Mexican Supreme Court of Justice, as the Supreme Law. The amparo suit, or constitutional injunction suit, is a specific legal figure created to impede or to bar any act or law considered unconstitutional. The issue is whether federal courts in Mexico can properly set aside an award through an amparo suit, although acting in accordance with the international legal system especially without breaching Mexico s obligation under the VCLT. Considering that the article V(II)(b) of the New York Convention may provide with the public policy exception a way out. 176 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The broad objective of this book is to examine the phenomenon of queer carnival for its corporeal and spatial expression of fluid identity formations. The visual constitution of multiple gay/queer identities during the Cape Town Pride Parade can be regarded as transgressive of the social hierarchies that are embedded within the normative order and social stability of post-apartheid city space. By tracing discursive and spatial shifts that have occurred within the South African sexual landscape, this book demonstrates that carnivalesque performances of sexual identity are complex as they enunciate both hetero- and homonormative discourses. In the process of deconstruction, the various interactions between the spectators and participants of carnival are examined for their capacity to blur binary constructs of stasis/mobility, subject/object, private/public, and normal/abnormal. The findings and analysis will be of interest to anyone working or studying within the field of Queer Studies. 168 pp. Englisch.
