Testing Times: A Structure/Agency Perspective on Becoming a Science Teacher in a Competitive, Exam‐Based Teacher Selection System

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While extensive research exists on science teacher shortages, less attention has been directed toward countries facing the opposite challenge: an oversupply of science teachers. This study examines the experiences of prospective science teachers in South Korea, where passing a high‐stakes, annual competitive examination is a prerequisite for ...

Towards Relational Foundations for Spacetime Quantum Physics

Universe
Rovelli’s relational interpretation of quantum mechanics tells us that the description of a system in the formalism of quantum mechanics is not an absolute but is relative to the observer itself.

Representation Lost: The Case for a Relational Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

Entropy, 2018
Contemporary non-representationalist interpretations of the quantum state (especially QBism, neo-Copenhagen views, and the relational interpretation) maintain that quantum states codify observer-relative information.

A Graph Theoretic Perspective on CPM(Rel) [PDF]

Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2015
Mixed states are of interest in quantum mechanics for modelling partial information. More recently categorical approaches to linguistics have also exploited the idea of mixed states to describe ambiguity and hyponym / hypernym relationships.

Rendezvous in Space: Tech Diplomacy and the Commercial Space Era—A Study of Rendezvous and Docking Technologies and Space Exploration Co‐Operation Since the Cold War

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On‐orbit rendezvous and docking constitute one of the most technically challenging activities in the history of space activities. As space endeavours mature to crewed missions, space rendezous and docking technologies (RDT) emerge as an area of technological innovation critical to advances in future crewed space exploration.

The Problem of Interactions in Relational Quantum Mechanics

Philosophy of Physics
Relational quantum mechanics (RQM) purportedly resolves the measurement problem by the postulate that physical variables can take determinate values that are relational in the sense that they are indexed to particular systems. Physical variables take on

Making Sense of the Mental Universe [PDF]

Философия и космология, 2017
In 2005, an essay was published in Nature asserting that the universe is mental and that we must abandon our tendency to conceptualize observations as things.

The Narrative Continent: Discursive Recognition and the EU's Technological Actorness

JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Recognition in global politics is not only earned through institutions or capabilities; it is narrated into being. This article investigates how the European Union (EU) is framed as a technological actor in global discourse, focusing on the symbolic dynamics of discursive recognition.

Entropy Balance in the Expanding Universe: A Novel Perspective

Entropy, 2019
We describe cosmic expansion as correlated with the standpoints of local observers’ co-moving horizons. In keeping with relational quantum mechanics, which claims that quantum systems are only meaningful in the context of measurements, we suggest ...
