This study investigates the sociomaterial movements of student engagement in a school's makerspace. Here, we understand sociomaterial movements as emergent and relational, comprising complex dynamics of agency across students, teachers and materials in situated, culturally framed activities. Our study draws on data comprising 85 hours of video recordings of 9–12-year-old students' (N = 94) engagement in a technology-rich makerspace in a Finnish elementary school. The video data were transcribed and analyzed qualitatively using a multimodal interaction analysis. The sociomaterial movements were found to be displayed across a tension-laden continuum between (1) procedural activity—analysis and reflection; (2) individual activity—collaboration; (3) “doing school”—empowerment; and d) alienation—identification. Together, the study offers a potential approach for investigating and understanding the often overlooked workings of sociomateriality that constitutes students' emergent engagement and learning opportunities in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEAM) learning contexts.  相似文献   

Engaging mothers with substance use issues and their children in early intervention: Understanding use of service and outcomes     

《Child abuse & neglect》2018

Mothers who use substances need integrated, multi-sectoral intervention services to support substance use discontinuation. We explored mothers’ service use at Breaking the Cycle, an early intervention and prevention program for pregnant and parenting women and their young children in Toronto, Canada. We conducted retrospective analyses of families’ service records and client charts (N = 160). Aims were to 1) describe women’s use of service, 2) examine how early engagement of pregnant women related to postnatal service use, and 3) examine the circumstances in which women ended their service relationship with Breaking the Cycle. Specifically, we examined circumstances at service ending relating to women’s service goals; custody status with children; and global substance-use, parent-child relationship, and child development outcomes. We found that these vulnerable women were actively engaged in many services and for a long duration, early engagement was associated with greater service use, and greater service use was associated with more positive circumstances upon ending service. Results provide support for a relational approach to service that promotes not only the relationship between mother and child, and mother and service provider, but also highlights relationships among staff, between staff and management, and between community partners as integral to effective service delivery. Integrating positive relationships at all levels is critical to support vulnerable families with complex needs.  相似文献

Tracking control of nonlinear automobile idle-speed time-delay system via differential geometry approach     

Ting-Li Chien  Ching-Yu Hsu 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2005,342(7):760-775

This paper is concerned with the problem of global asymptotical tracking of single-input single-output (SISO) nonlinear time-delay control systems. Based on the input-output feedback linearization technique and Lyapunov method for nonlinear state feedback synthesis, a robust globally asymptotical output tracking controller design methodology for a broad class of nonlinear time-delay control systems is developed. The underlying theoretical approaches are the differential geometry approach and the composite Lyapunov approach. One utilizes the parameterized co-ordinate transformation to transform the original nonlinear system into singularly perturbed model and the composite Lyapunov approach is then applied for output tracking. For the view of practical application, the proposed control methodology has been successfully applied to the famous nonlinear automobile idle-speed control system.  相似文献

论技术跨越的实现途径以及对我国政府的启示     

张鹏  朱常俊 《科学学研究》2007,25(1):57-61

技术跨越的本质就是一种非连续性的技术进步方式,旨在迅速提高技术水平,缩短与技术领先者的差距。技术跨越的实现主要有三种途径:自主、引进、合作。理论和实践经验证明,政府的干预是实现技术跨越的重要条件,但是在不同创新阶段,政府工作的重点有所不同。  相似文献

Robust estimator design with an emphasis balance between performance and robustness     

Hyeon-Cheol Lee  Don R. Halverson 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2007,344(7):954-968

From a number of ML estimators (typically unbiased) of practical interest which include the variance for a Gaussian distribution, the standard deviation for a Laplace distribution, the variance for a Rayleigh distribution and a “spread parameter” for a Cauchy distribution, we design robust estimators according to an emphasis balance between normalized performance and normalized robustness. We measure performance with inverted MSE and robustness with a differential geometric approach.  相似文献
