Racial gaps without racism: How English universities frame inequality in access and participation plans

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Racial inequalities are pervasive in higher education despite concerted efforts to redress issues of access, progression and continuation. Little attention has been paid to how universities themselves construct race within their policy texts.

‘…It was my choice to see how I can acquire this Western world education… and I'm happy…’: Structuration and the dialectic nature of being a Nigerian university student in the UK

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper examines the experiences of Nigerian cross‐border students in UK higher education, focusing on how colonial legacies continue to shape the interplay between structure and agency. Three key themes emerged in the analysis of the data: First, the persistence of a ‘West is Best’ mentality reflects the internalisation of colonial ...

The situated professional: Preservice teachers' profiling of globally competent teachers and visions of their ‘possible professional self’

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In response to globalisation, teacher education programmes worldwide are tasked with preparing globally competent teachers (GCTs). Prevailing conceptions of global competence are largely derived from Western‐centric humanistic, neoliberal and transformative narratives, creating a complex landscape for teacher identity formation.

How curriculum modifications shape educational pathways: Evidence from linked administrative data in Switzerland

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The increasing heterogeneity of learning needs and preconditions in inclusive mainstream classrooms entails that not all learners are equally able to meet the regular learning objectives. In response, various integrative measures have been implemented to tailor instruction to students' individual needs.

An Overrange Collocation Method

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper, a new meshless method called the overrange collocation method (ORCM) is proposed. By introducing some collocation points, which are located at outside of domain of the analyzed body, unsatisfactory issue of the positivity conditions of ...

Metal nanostructure‐coupled label‐free localized surface plasmon resonance biosensors for rapid and sensitive disease diagnosis

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
LSPR biosensing enables rapid, sensitive, and low‐sample‐volume detection of biomarkers, with broad applications in diagnosing cancer, infectious, and chronic diseases. Advances in nanostructure design, micro/nanofabrication, and microfluidic integration have expanded the potential of LSPR sensors in biomedical diagnostics.

Collocation for non-periodic functions with lattice points

open access: yes, 2013
Spectral collocation and reconstruction methods have been widely studied for periodic functions using Fourier expansions. We investigate the use of modified Fourier series for the approximation and collocation of $d$-variate non-periodic functions with ...
