Educators' positive practices with refugee pupils at two schools in England
British Educational Research Journal, Volume 48, Issue 6, Page 1125-1144, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Extensive evidence indicates that education is an integral part of the settling in process for refugee and asylum‐seeking children. Furthermore, it has been suggested that positive teaching practice with refugee pupils should be asset‐based and holistic in nature. The present study examines educators' positive practices with refugee pupils and

When Scientists Become Social Scientists: How Citizen Science Projects Learn About Volunteers [PDF]
Darch, Peter T. (2017), "When Scientists Become Social Scientists:
How Citizen Science Projects Learn About Volunteers", International Journal
of Digital Curation 12(2), pp. 61-75, 2018 Online citizen science projects involve recruitment of volunteers to assist researchers with the creation, curation, and analysis of large datasets. Enhancing the quality of these data products is a fundamental concern for teams running citizen science projects.

The Nature of Volunteered Geographic Information
, 2016 This contribution starts from the assumption that volunteered geographic information is a technological, cultural and scientific innovation. It therefore offers first some general background on the context that has fuelled the development of VGI and the lively scientific debates that have accompanied its success. The paper then focuses on the nature of

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study uncovers that CD38high monocytes discriminate sepsis and sterile inflammation and are associated with 28‐day mortality in bacterial sepsis. Targeting CD38 therapy reduces inflammatory response in monocytes and in sepsis mice model. Mechanistically, CD38‐HIF‐1α/glycolysis/MGO loop exacerbates sepsis‐induced immune dysregulation.
