String Figuring young children's perspectives of quality in English early childhood education and care

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Quality in early childhood education and care (ECEC) is a contested concept and has generally been conceptualised by inter‐related indicators such as staff qualifications, educational environment, policy or child‐to‐staff ratios. There has been a more limited emphasis on how young children might perceive and experience quality.

Social capital and employability development among Chinese Mainland undergraduates in Hong Kong: An exploration of network dynamics, structural constraints and agentic practices

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Bourdieu's sociological concept of social capital highlights its significance in enabling individuals to access other forms of capital for personal advantage. In the literature on university students' employability, particularly that concerning international and non‐local students, social capital is widely recognised as a key asset, alongside ...

Flourishing through adventure learning: A (semi)cautionary tale

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies suggest that adventure learning can develop children's cognitive skills and promote social and emotional learning. However, evidence is needed as to whether the design of adventure learning—school‐based or external/residential—plays a role in that development/promotion, and whether learning gains are maintained.

High‐performance tetrahedral palladium nanocatalyst for microwave‐assisted organic synthesis

open access: yesBulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
Tetrahedral palladium nanoparticles anchored on graphene sheets (T‐Pd/graphene) were synthesized through a solvent‐free process involving thermal decomposition in an environment rich in carbon monoxide at elevated temperatures and have high catalytic activity for organic chemistry reactions. Abstract Palladium is widely recognized for its effectiveness

Shape‐directed formation of T8/T6 Zn–siloxane clusters and their deep‐UV shielding properties

open access: yesBulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
The shape and conformational characteristics of silane substituents direct the assembly of Zn–siloxane clusters into conventional T8 or rare T6 siloxane frameworks. Non‐planar cyclic substituents selectively promote T6 formation through steric effects, while the resulting clusters exhibit deep‐ultraviolet absorption and can be processed into ...
