Walking the walk? Quantifying university L2 French students' prioritization and experience of critical literacies instruction

Foreign Language Annals, EarlyView.
Abstract Critical pedagogical approaches such as critical literacies represent important tools for incorporating diversity, equity, inclusion, and social justice into L2 teaching, an objective that is more important now than ever before. However, research has shown that implementing such practices is difficult—even for instructors who value them—due to

Simultaneous SLAM imaging and tensile loading of copper films [PDF]

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1989
Preliminary experiments on imaging the mechanical properties of copper films (1 and 5 mil thick) have been performed with the scanning laser acoustic microscope (SLAM). Assessment of material properties can be obtained through attenuation and speed measurements with the SLAM.

Multi‐objective maritime vessel routing with safety considerations

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract The routing of maritime vessels is a challenging optimization problem that involves finding an adequate balance between conflicting and multiple objectives. This paper proposes a methodology based on inverse optimization to find appropriate objective weights that account for conflicting objectives. To formulate the inverse optimization problem,
