ABSTRACT In her 2024 paper Are Australian students' academic skills declining? Interrogating 25 years of national and international standardised assessment data, Larsen compiled an impressive summary of major international (PISA, PIRLS and TIMSS) and national (NAPLAN) standardised assessments pertaining to literacy and numeracy.

Polyphenol‐Based Biomaterials Against Cancer Radio/Chemotherapy‐Induced Intestinal Toxicity
Radiotherapy/chemotherapy often causes intestinal toxicity, impairing cancer patients’ quality of life and treatment efficacy. Polyphenols protect against this injury via multiple mechanisms, but face oral use limitations. This review outlines their protective mechanisms and delivery challenges, highlighting recent oral delivery advances and future ...

Semi‐automated assessment for NatureServe subnational conservation status ranks for state floras
Abstract Premise Conservation status ranks measure the potential risk of extinction for species at global, national, and subnational levels, taking into account rarity, threats, and trends. These assessments are largely incomplete due to funding and resource limitations.

Risk‐aware safe reinforcement learning for control of stochastic linear systems
Abstract This paper presents a risk‐aware safe reinforcement learning (RL) control design for stochastic discrete‐time linear systems. Rather than using a safety certifier to myopically intervene with the RL controller, a risk‐informed safe controller is also learned besides the RL controller, and the RL and safe controllers are combined together ...
