How does dialogic teaching facilitate students' creative thinking? Evidence from a sequential analysis of teacher–student dialogue in primary language classrooms

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Dialogic teaching has been shown to be beneficial for students' learning and achievement. However, few studies have investigated how dialogic teaching may foster students' creative thinking in the classroom. This study examined the sequential patterns of classroom dialogue associated with students' creative thinking.

A Guide to Bayesian Optimization in Bioprocess Engineering

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bayesian optimization has become widely popular across various experimental sciences due to its favorable attributes: it can handle noisy data, perform well with relatively small data sets, and provide adaptive suggestions for sequential experimentation.

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

The spread of non‐native species

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

The myth of the metabolic baseline: sleep–wake cycles undermine a foundational assumption in organismal biology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Basal and standard metabolic rate (BMR and SMR) are cornerstones of physiological ecology and are assumed to be relatively fixed intrinsic properties of organisms that represent the minimum energy required to sustain life. However, this assumption is conceptually flawed. Many core maintenance processes underlying SMR are temporally partitioned
