Science class as clinic: Why histories of segregated instruction matter for health equity reforms today

Science Education, Volume 107, Issue 1, Page 42-70, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Research has recommended centering health disparities to make science instruction relevant to students from minoritized racial and ethnic groups. While promoted as a recent innovation, the repurposing of science instruction to improve the health of demographic groups has a longer history traceable to segregated and colonial schooling.

Decoherent Histories Quantum Mechanics with One 'Real' Fine-Grained History [PDF]

Phys. Rev. A, 85, 062120 (2012), 2011
Decoherent histories quantum theory is reformulated with the assumption that there is one "real" fine-grained history, specified in a preferred complete set of sum-over-histories variables. This real history is described by embedding it in an ensemble of comparable imagined fine-grained histories, not unlike the familiar ensemble of statistical ...

J.Math.Phys. 36 (1995) 5392-5408, 1995
We treat continuous histories within the histories approach to generalised quantum mechanics. The essential tool is the `history group': the analogue, within the generalised history scheme, of the canonical group of single-time quantum mechanics.

Reimagining Internet Geographies: A User-Centric Ethnological Mapping of the World Wide Web [PDF]

, 2015
We propose a new user-centric imagery of the WWW that foregrounds local usage and its shaping forces, in contrast to existing imageries that prioritize Internet infrastructure. We construct ethnological maps of WWW usage through a network analysis of shared global traffic between 1000 most popular websites at three time points and develop granular ...

Different mechanisms shaped the transition to farming in Europe and the North American Woodland [PDF]

, 2011
The introduction and emergence of agriculture into Eastern North America (ENA) and Europe proceeded very differently in both subcontinents: it varied in timing, speed, and mechanism. Common to both regions, agricultural subsistence profited from the introduction of major staple crops which had been domesticated elsewhere; in both regions, the temperate

Mythogeographies of anthropological knowledge: writing over the lines and footsteps of history in Southwest China

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
In this article, I delve into the field diary of Ma Changshou – a major Chinese ethnohistorian and social anthropologist active between the 1930s and 1960s – to show how his journeys through Liangshan, a mountainous land in Southwest China inhabited by the Nuosu‐Yi, led to a new kind of anthropological knowledge.
