Testimony and Children’s Acquisition of Number Concepts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
An enduring puzzle in philosophy and developmental psychology is how young children acquire number concepts, in particular the concept of natural number.

Actuating and Sensing Composites of Liquid Crystal Elastomers and Poly(ionic liquid)s

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Ionic conductive, mechanically tough, flexible, and stretchable filaments of a composite material comprising a liquid crystal elastomer and a poly(ionic liquid) are produced through 3D printing, which exhibit large actuation strain under stimulation and electrical resistance variation in response to deformation or environmental condition changes. Their

A STUDY ON THE USE OF MEDIA IN TEACHING VOCABULARY TO YOUNG LEARNERS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Vocabulary is one of the important points of English learning. It is one of the language components and as a base of a language. That is why vocabulary building should be given to children.Getting much vocabulary is better because they will have stronger

From Clinic to Computation: Multiscale Bioengineering Strategies for Durable Biological Aortic Valve Replacements

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioprosthetic aortic valves have revolutionized the treatment of aortic stenosis, but their durability is limited by structural valve deterioration (SVD). This review focuses on the pericardial tissue at the heart of these valves, examining how its mechanical properties and calcification drive fatigue and failure.

Sensorized Engineered Tissues with Built‐in Thermoregulation and Nutrient Supply

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a granular hydrogel‐based tissue engineering platform that includes a closed‐loop temperature control to maintain 37°C and sustainably releases nutrients, thereby enabling cells to retain a high viability even if stored at room temperature for up to 24 h.

Grappling with Issues of Learning Science from Everyday Experiences: An Illustrative Case Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
There are different perceptions among researchers with regard to the infusion of everyday experience in the teaching of science: 1) it hinders the learning of science concepts; or, 2) it increases the participation and motivation of students in science ...

Dynamic Bonds Enable Repair and Reprocessing of Glycol‐Modified PET

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Dynamic hindered urea bonds enable rapid healing in glycol‐modified PET‐based polyurethanes. Tuning the hindered‐amine content allows these polymers to balance mechanical integrity with fast repair, achieving complete scratch disappearance in 30 s at 130°C.

Socialising young literacy learners into a discourse of failure: Dominant discourses in literacy teaching and assessment and their impact on the progression of young literacy learners into employment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper argues that contemporary literacy programmes are a mismatch for the expectations of both the government and employers as well as the goals of learners.

Artifact‐Minimizing Ultrathin Transparent Electrodes Fabricated via iCVD for In Vivo Optogenetic Stimulation and Neural Signal Monitoring of Primary Visual Cortex

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We present ultrathin flexible transparent electrodes through iCVD‐enabled molecular control of 10 nm gold films on poly(dimethylaminomethylstyrene). In vivo validation demonstrated photoelectric artifact reduction vs. opaque electrodes and preservation of natural neural dynamics.

Shape‐Controlled Guanine Self‐Assemblies for Stable and Fast‐Ion Solid–Electrolyte Interphases in Sustainable Li Metal Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The shape of guanine self‐assemblies is tuned by introducing alkyl (G8), fluoroalkyl (G8f), and oligoether (G8g) side chains into the G moiety. The scanning tunneling microscopy results and calculations show that the presence and type of the side chain strongly affect the G self‐assembly network.
