‘It is not a topic that should be assessed by a test’: Understanding teachers' assessment literacy in the teaching of ‘difficult histories’ such as the Holocaust

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores how history teachers in secondary education in England (a) see their role as assessors and (b) how they make decisions about assessing a difficult history: learning about the Holocaust. Assessment literacy (AL) is recognised as a potentially valuable aspect of good teaching and central to supporting students' learning ...

Atherectomy With Multimodal Embolic Protection for Severely Calcified Femoropopliteal Lesions

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Severe calcification in femoropopliteal lesions remains a clinical challenge to achieve both the technical and long‐term success in endovascular therapy. Although atherectomy is an effective treatment for calcified lesions, it is associated with the risk of distal embolization, even with the use of embolic protection devices (EPDs), and ...

Bayesian clustering of multivariate extremes

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The asymptotic dependence structure between multivariate extreme values is fully characterized by their projections on the unit simplex. Under mild conditions, the only constraint on the resulting distributions is that their marginal means must be equal, which results in a nonparametric model that can be difficult to use in applications ...
