Learning From and Through Evaluation: An Examination of Practice

New Directions for Evaluation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this article, we provide an analysis across the foregoing practice‐based case exemplars to understand antecedent conditions and influences, learning‐oriented evaluation strategies, estimates of strategy success or potential success, and factors that either enable or hinder the extent to which learning from and through evaluation occurs. The

Multi‐synergistic strategy for dual‐sensing conductive hydrogels capable of simultaneous strain and temperature monitoring

FlexMat, EarlyView.
In this study, a multicomponent synergistic strategy is utilized, which capitalizes on the “intersection” of multiple functional influencing factors to achieve the successful development of a multifunctional hydrogel. Through the construction of a unique three‐dimensional dynamic cross‐linked network, the material combines mechanical strength ...
