The musculature and skeleton of the pelvic fin of the crocodile shark, Pseudocarcharias kamoharai (Matsubara, 1936) (Elasmobranchii: Lamniformes): Morphology and sexual dimorphism

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This work brings new information on the sexual characteristics of the crocodile shark (Pseudocarcharias kamoharai) exploring the pelvic fin musculature, as well as the siphon sac and the musculature and skeleton of the clasper. Our paper is the first to point out clearly the sexual dimorphism related exclusively to the pelvic fin musculature in males ...

A class of cubic and quintic spline modified collocation methods for the solution of two-point boundary value problems

open access: yes, 1987
This paper is concerned with the study of a class of methods for solving second and fourth-order two-point boundary-value problems. The methods under consideration are modifications of the standard cubic and quintic spline collocation techniques, and ...

Learning to ‘be’ an activist: Exploring the relationship between activism and informal education in a youth activism group case study

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Young people in the United States (and beyond) access spaces for activism in varied ways, including the out‐of‐school time sector, where youth activism (YA) groups draw on informal learning pedagogies to engage young people in collective action.

The impact of trauma‐informed teacher education

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In this study, two cohorts of university students in an employment‐based teacher education course undertook trauma‐informed education training embedded within their coursework to enhance their preparedness to work with diverse learners and their self‐efficacy for trauma‐informed teaching. With increased calls for teacher preparation programmes

The stability of collocation methods for VIDEs of second order

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2005
Simplest results presented here are the stability criteria of collocation methods for the second-order Volterra integro differential equation (VIDE) by polynomial spline functions. The polynomial spline collocation method is stable if all eigenvalues of

‘It's all very well having a diverse curriculum, but if there is no curriculum, it can be as diverse as you like’: Precarity and decolonising in the neoliberal UK higher education system

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Drawing upon interview research across two academic departments as part of the early stages of a ‘decolonise the curriculum’ initiative at a Southern UK university, this study highlights a growing gulf between policy and practice in efforts to address systemic racial inequalities in UK universities. A reliance upon precarious labour, a culture

Convergence of a collocation scheme for a retarded potential integral equation

open access: yes, 2003
Time domain boundary integral formulations of transient scattering problems involve retarded potential integral equations (RPIEs). Solving such equations numerically is both complicated and computationally intensive, and numerical methods often prove to ...

Bridging home, school and community to address educational inequality: Supporting educational trajectories through community bridge work

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the role of community stakeholders in supporting the educational trajectories of students experiencing socio‐economic disadvantage in the Irish context. Building on international and national policy debates, the study examines how community‐based organisations, statutory services and outreach initiatives work alongside ...

‘It is not a topic that should be assessed by a test’: Understanding teachers' assessment literacy in the teaching of ‘difficult histories’ such as the Holocaust

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores how history teachers in secondary education in England (a) see their role as assessors and (b) how they make decisions about assessing a difficult history: learning about the Holocaust. Assessment literacy (AL) is recognised as a potentially valuable aspect of good teaching and central to supporting students' learning ...

Parallel-in-Time Collocation Methods

open access: yes, 2022
The efficient use of modern supercomputers has become one of the key challenges in computational science. For the numerical solution of time-dependent processes, time-parallel methods have opened new ways to overcome both strong and weak scaling limits ...
