‘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

British 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 ...

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Green Is the New Gold: Redefining Opulent Lifestyle Through Organic Food Purchases

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prior studies based on the Theory of Planned Behavior mostly examined the effects of health and environmental concerns on organic food consumption; however, few addressed the paradoxical relationships in the context of opulent or symbolic decorum.

Geodiversity is an inseparable but underutilized aspect of ecological connectivity assessments under climate change

Ecography, EarlyView.
Conservation has shifted towards a climate change adaptation approach in which expected species range shifts are increasingly considered to mitigate effects of climate change and habitat fragmentation on biodiversity. As part of this, ecological connectivity needs to be ensured to support gene flow and viable populations in the face of changing ...

Nutritional Potential, Phytochemical Content, In Vivo Antioxidant, and Antanemic Potential of Musa paradisiaca Flower

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
After collecting Musa paradisiaca leaves, some were dried and others were used to produce aqueous extracts. The extracts and powders were characterized and then administered to rats made anaemic by PHZ. After 14 days of administration of the two samples, the rats were euthanized and it was observed that after 9 days of treatment, the aqueous extract ...

A STUDY OF THE EFFECT OF THE PARAMETERS FOR OPTIMIZING PROFIT USING SIMULATED ANNEALING TO SOLVE SHELF SPACE ALLOCATION PROBLEM

Azerbaijan Journal of High Performance Computing, 2020
Shelf space allocation has always remained a crucial issue for any retail store, as space is a limited resource. This work proposes a model that uses a hyper-heuristic approach to allocate products on shelves to maximize the retailer's profit.

Forecasting Count Data With Varying Dispersion: A Latent‐Variable Approach

Journal of Forecasting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Count data, such as product sales and disease case counts, are common in business forecasting and many areas of science. Although the Poisson distribution is the best known model for such data, its use is severely limited by its assumption that the dispersion is a fixed function of the mean, which rarely holds in real‐world scenarios.

Hyperspectral Imaging Combined With Image Fusion Features and Machine Learning to Discriminate Different Origins, Grades, and Shelf‐Life of Oranges

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
This study verified that it is feasible to distinguish oranges of different origins, grades and shelf lives by using hyperspectral technology. It covers spectral, image and graph technologies, as well as machine learning and deep learning models. ABSTRACT This study reports the first application of hyperspectral feature fusion technology combined with ...
