“Nowhere else to go”: Slow abandonment and (en)closures of long‐term care in Los Angeles

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residential long‐term care facilities, known in California as “board and care” homes, have been closing rapidly in the last decade. Proponents assert these provide vital forms of housing and care to the poor and must be saved, while critics contend they perpetuate the institutionalization of people with disabilities and should be abolished ...

Leveraging Multimodal Large Language Models to Analyse Student Exploration Behaviours in Educational Game Environments

open access: yesJournal of Computer Assisted Learning, Volume 42, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Video data provides rich opportunities to examine student behaviour in game‐based learning environments, capturing not only observable actions but also subtle indicators of cognitive engagement. However, traditional video analysis is labor‐intensive, and current applications of AI to this task are limited by models trained on ...

Nitrous Oxide/Paraffin Hybrid Rocket Engines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Nitrous oxide/paraffin (N2OP) hybrid rocket engines have been invented as alternatives to other rocket engines especially those that burn granular, rubbery solid fuels consisting largely of hydroxyl- terminated polybutadiene (HTPB).

The Interplay of Teacher Agency and TPACK in AI‐Integrated Science Education: Insights From Exemplary Practice Cases

open access: yesJournal of Computer Assisted Learning, Volume 42, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Teacher agency plays a pivotal role in technology‐enhanced instruction, yet empirical evidence connecting agency to the practical enactment of specific components of TPACK remains limited. In particular, the intersections between teacher agency and TPK/TCK as enacted practices warrant closer scrutiny.
