    Abstract: This contributed volume focuses on understanding the educational strengths and weaknesses of mediated content (including media as a learning supplement), in comparison to traditional face-to-face learning. Each chapter includes research on, and a broad-brush summary of, approaches to combining life sciences education with educational technologies. The chapters are organized into four main sections, each of which focuses on a key question regarding the consequences of incorporating media into education. In this regard, the authors highlight how educational technology is both a bridge and barrier to student access and inclusivity. Further, they address the ongoing discussion as to whether students need to be present for lectures, and on how having agency in their own learning can improve both retention and conceptual understanding. To link the content to current events, the authors also shed light on the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic is having on the continuity of educational programs and on the growing importance of educational technologies. Consequently, the book offers life science educators valuable guidance on the technologies already available, and an outlook on what is yet to come.

    Description: One of the most common methods to evaluate environmental footprints of farming systems is life cycle assessment (LCA). Although LCA itself is suitable for and adopted by a wide range of industries far beyond agriculture, what separates agriculture, and in particular pasture-based ruminant production systems, is the high degree of uncertainties associated with physical, chemical and biological processes that underpin production. Through a review of recent literature and a quantitative case study, this chapter explores how the practical trade-off between feasibility and scientific rigour should be addressed in the field of ruminant production systems. Finally, the chapter provides detailed guidance on where to look for further information in the field.

    Notes: Abstract. It has recently been argued that living metazoans diverged over 800 million years ago, based on evidence from 22 nuclear genes for such a deep divergence between vertebrates and arthropods (Gu 1998). Two ``internal'' calibration points were used. However, only one fossil divergence date (the mammal–bird split) was directly used to calibrate the molecular clock. The second calibration point (the primate–rodent split) was based on molecular estimates that were ultimately also calibrated by the same mammal–bird split. However, the first tetrapods that can be assigned with confidence to either the mammal (synapsid) lineage or the bird (diapsid) lineage are approximately 288 million years old, while the first mammals that can be assigned with confidence to either the primate or the rodent lineages are 65 million years old, or 85 million years old if ferungulates are part of the primate lineage and zhelestids are accepted as ferungulate relatives. Recalibration of the protein data using these fossil dates indicates that metazoans diverged between 791 and 528 million years ago, a result broadly consistent with the palaeontological documentation of the ``Cambrian explosion.'' The third, ``external'' calibration point (the metazoan–fungal divergence) was similarly problematic, since it was based on a controversial molecular study (which in turn used fossil dates including the mammal–bird split); direct use of fossils for this calibration point gives the absurd dating of 455 million years for metazoan divergences. Similar calibration problems affect another recent study (Wang et al. 1999), which proposes divergences for metazoans of 1000 million years or more: recalibrations of their clock again yields much more recent dates, some consistent with a ``Cambrian explosion'' scenario. Molecular clock studies have persuasively argued for the imperfection of the fossil record but have rarely acknowledged that their inferences are also directly based on this same record.

    Notes: Fir st prototypes of electrooptic (EO) planar deflector switches (PDS) are fabricatedwith hybrid integration on Si substrates. Planar optical modules, made in silica-on-silicontechnology, consist of input and output waveguide microlenses facing each other and slabwaveguides in between. The modules interconnect the input and output fibers with laterallycollimated light beams less than 400 [removed info]m in width at distances up to 100 mm with losses lower than3 dB. Thin lead lanthanum zirconium titanate (PLZT) films with prism-shaped electrodes grown onSrTiO3 substrates form the deflector elements. The PLZT films are more than 10 [removed info]m thick with EOcoefficients about 40 pm/V. The deflector assembly technology provides chip vertical positioningaccuracy better than 1 [removed info]m. The deflector chips are attached to the optical substrates with thermocompressionflip-chip bonding. The optical power losses of the modules with test silica chips can beas low as 3.6 dB. However, the lowest module losses achieved with PLZT are about 10 dB. Thechannel-to-channel switching operations are demonstrated at about 40 V and switching times lessthan 300 ns

    Notes: A new ansatz for local electron correlation is introduced, which truncates double substitutions subject to a triatomics in molecules (TRIM) criterion. TRIM includes all double substitutions in which one occupied-virtual substitution is atomic while the other substitution can be nonlocal (a cubic number, before cutoffs). With an additional approximation, the TRIM second-order Møller–Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) model can be noniteratively solved; this is the model that is implemented. Results are shown for absolute energies of alkane and polyene chains, rotational barriers of substituted ethylenes and benzenes, and association energies of the water and neon dimers. Over 99.7% of the untruncated MP2 energy is recovered for the test cases, and the relative energies of small systems are in error by less than 0.1 kcal/mol. By contrast, a diatomics in molecules (DIM) truncation recovers about 95% of the full MP2 energy, and yields errors several times larger for relative energies. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Anonymous distributed computing systems consist of potentially millions of heterogeneous processing nodes connected by the global Internet. These nodes can be administered by thousands of organizations and individuals, with no direct knowledge of each other. This work defines anonymous distributed computing systems in general then focuses on the specifics of an applet-based approach for large-scale, anonymous, distributed computing on the Internet. A user wishing to participate in a computation connects to a distribution server, which provides information about available computations, and then connects to a computation server with a computation to distribute. A Java class is downloaded, which communicates with the computation server to obtain data, performs the computation, and returns the result. Since any computer on the Internet can participate in these computations, potentially a large number of computers can participate in a single computation.

    Notes: Recent interest in the Internet as a medium for commerce has raised questions about the usefulness of branding on the World Wide Web. Examines whether consumers use brands as sources of information when shopping on the Internet. Applying theory from the economics of information, predicts that recent adopters of the Internet will be less proficient at searching for product information and will rely more on brands. As they gather more experience on the Internet, their search proficiency should rise and their brand reliance should fall. These hypotheses are tested and confirmed using usage and opinion survey data from the Internet community. The results suggest that branding can facilitate consumers' acceptance of electronic commerce.

    Notes: Enhanced subsurface biorestoration is rapidly becoming recognized as a valuable tool for the restoration of hydrocarbon-contaminated aquifers and sediments. Previous field and laboratory studies at a former wood creosoting facility near Conroe, Texas, have indicated that insufficient oxygen is the primary factor limiting the biotransformation of polynuclear aromatics (PNAs) in sediments and ground water at this site. A series of laboratory experiments and field push-pull injection tests were performed as part of this project to: (1) study the effect of low oxygen concentrations on the biotransformation of PNAs; (2) identify the minimum concentration of PNAs that could be achieved through the addition of oxygen alone; (3) confirm that enhanced subsurface biorestoration is feasible at this site; and (4) test an existing numerical model of the biotransformation process (BIOPLUME). The laboratory studies demonstrated that biotransformation of the PNAs was not inhibited at dissolved oxygen concentrations as low as 0.7 mg/L although this work did suggest that there may be a minimum PNA concentration of 30 to 70 μg/L total PNAs below which biotransformation was inhibited. The field push-pull tests confirmed that addition of oxygen was effective in enhancing the subsurface biodegradation of the PNAs. The minimum concentration achieved using oxygen alone was approximately 60 μg/L total PNAs. Minimal biotransformation of these compounds was observed without oxygen addition. The numerical model BIOPLUME was tested against monitoring data from the field experiments and appears to provide a good approximation of the biodegradation process.
