Tackling ignorance about law in human rights education

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper aims to unpack potential reasons why law and legal knowledge—despite its apparent importance and value in teaching and learning about human rights—appears to be largely conspicuous by its absence in human rights education (HRE) in schooling.

‘I've always known that I would become a teacher’: How White women narrate their choice to teach, and what this means for teacher recruitment

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Teacher shortages are not only severe and long term, but are strongly patterned by social inequities. In many Western countries the teaching workforce is dominated by White women, yet there is a lack of consideration as to why these patterns persist.

The Phenolic Content and Bioactivity Assessment of Rubus sanctus Schreber Species with Potential for Food and Ethnopharmacological Uses

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, the phytochemical content and various biological activities of Rubus sanctus Schreber species, widely distributed in Turkiye and used in folk medicine, were determined. The ethanol extracts of the root and aerial parts of the species were prepared and their bioactive phytochemical composition was identified by liquid ...

Experimental methods in chemical engineering: Electron probe micro‐analysis—EPMA

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) is a non‐destructive spectroscopic technique to map the chemical composition—quantitative elemental distribution and layer thickness—with a micro‐scale resolution. An electron beam illuminates the surface of a sample and produces backscattered electrons (BSE), secondary electrons (SE), characteristic X‐rays,

Analytical Study of Lanolin as Potential Biomarker of Prehistoric Sheep‐Shearing Practice

Chemistry–Methods, EarlyView.
Lanolin, a complex wax found on sheep wool, accumulates on shearing tools, such as flint and obsidian blades, used since the Neolithic. This study explores lanolin's degradation patterns as a potential biomarker for prehistoric sheep‐shearing practices, employing micro‐Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, hyperspectral imaging, and gas ...

COLORS FROM THE PAST: ION BEAM ANALYSES ON GLASS FINDS EXCAVATED AT THE LATE IRON AGE SETTLEMENT FROM TINOSU, PRAHOVA COUNTY, ROMANIA

ChemPlusChem, Accepted Article.
This paper discusses the results of Ion Beam Analyses (IBA) on 20 glass items excavated at the Late Iron Age site from Tinosu, Prahova County, Romania, broadly dated to the 2nd c. BC – 2nd c. AD. Most glass fragments originate from naturally colored or intentionally colored tableware, which were either monochrome (green or blue) or polychrome (mosaic ...

Why aren't we teaching this? Smart local energy systems and the young person's perspective

The Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract With the UK government's target of Net Zero by 2050, alongside the rising cost of energy in the UK, it is imperative that public opinion aligns with and promotes affordable, greener energy systems. Within this dialogue, young people's voices and lived experience are needed to deepen the impact of energy policy intervention strategies.

Wetlands as environments of early human occupation: A new classification for freshwater palaeowetlands

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
A new classification for inland freshwater palaeowetlands to be used in the field or core laboratory by sedimentologists, providing examples from the Guadix Basin (southern Spain). Abstract Present wetlands have proven to be delicate, biodiverse ecosystems, that are natural sinks for CO2 and act as good indicators for climate changes.

A Middle and Late Devensian sequence from the northern part of Kents Cavern (Devon, UK)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract 1920s/30s excavation of a Middle Devensian sequence in the northern part of Kents Cavern recovered important Late Middle and Early Upper Palaeolithic archaeological material, including Britain's oldest known Homo sapiens remains. Questions remain about this material, including how it came to be in the cave.

Long‐term hydrologic connectivity on the Australian dryland margins: Evidence from the Willandra Lakes World Heritage Area over the last 60 ky

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The semi‐arid Australian continental inland is increasingly subject to climatic extremes such as drought and flooding. Combined with the exceptionally low topographic relief characteristic of this region, hydroclimatic extremes can have an enormous impact on the land surface.
