To protect and preserve? Explaining the gap between structural and superficial racial equality regimes in North Atlantic Rim universities

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how UK and US universities manage racial equality regimes through governance structures that prioritise institutional reputation over substantive racial justice reform. Drawing on Bourdieu's field, habitus and capital theory, the study demonstrates how universities neutralise racial justice efforts through bureaucratic ...

Temporal Modulation of Traveling Waves in the Flow Between Rotating Cylinders With Broken Azimuthal Symmetry

, 1996
The effect of temporal modulation on traveling waves in the flows in two distinct systems of rotating cylinders, both with broken azimuthal symmetry, has been investigated.

Operationalising global education in teacher education and training: A model for contextualising terminology

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite a growing international consensus that students need to be provided with the type of education that effectively prepares them to engage in and contribute to their globalised world, and that teachers need to be appropriately trained to facilitate this teaching and learning, ‘global education’ continues to be hindered by a lack of ...

School readiness and the good level of development: Policy constructions in English early childhood education

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper critically analysed how school readiness has been historically and discursively constructed in Early Childhood Education (ECE) policy in England over the past four decades. Using Bacchi's ‘What's the Problem Represented to be?’ framework and Foucauldian concepts of governmentality, the paper explored how school readiness has shifted

Dynamic Control Flow in Large-Scale Machine Learning

, 2018
Many recent machine learning models rely on fine-grained dynamic control flow for training and inference. In particular, models based on recurrent neural networks and on reinforcement learning depend on recurrence relations, data-dependent conditional ...

A semi-analytical approach for temperature distribution in Dean flow

Heat and Mass Transfer, 2013
Numerical simulations of the flow field and heat transfer require the conjugate solution of the Navier–Stokes and energy equations, a highly compute-intensive process. Here a semi-analytical approach is proposed to solve the energy equation in curved pipes. It requires the flow velocity field, the wall temperature, and the temperature at only one point

Is the well‐known phrase ‘small is beautiful’ true of small transnational education institutions?

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The purpose of this research is to consider the potential attractiveness of operating a small international branch campus (IBC). Drawing upon resource‐based and legitimacy theories, we examine the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats associated with the business model that is based on having a small institution size.
