Shaking up story time A case for shaping the nature of information literacy instruction in public and school libraries through philosophy
Download2019-06-03
Lenart, Bartlomiej A., Lewis, Carla J.
While the Philosophy for Children (P4C) method has been adopted within classrooms by individual teachers and into some school systems by schoolboards, public and school libraries, the ideal users of this sort of programming, have been slow to recognise the benefits of this didactic methodology....

Assessment and evaluation are fluid concepts and, at times, used interchangeably. As general processes applied to understanding performance in any context – student, librarian/professor or organizational – they can equally be viewed as positive and effective undertakings, or as onerous and...

Boonsue, Suporn, Rogers, Robert, Spray, John, Hogan, James
The role of plastic deformation and fracture during small-scale, low-rate contact scenarios in gypsum is investigated. Results indicate that the hardness decreases with increasing load, on all axes, ranging from 216 kg/mm2 at 0.25 N to 91 kg/mm2 at 4.91 N on the (010) plane and from 122 kg/mm2 at...

Dynamic brittle fragmentation is typically described using analytical and computational approaches for tensile stress-states. However, most fragmentation applications (e.g., impact, blast) involve very large initial compressive stresses and deformations. In this study, the compressive...

Dynamic Fragmentation of Natural Ceramic Tiles: Ejecta Measurements and Kinetic Consequences
Download2013
Vincent, Gregory, Rogers, Robert, Spray, John, Schneider, Markus, Hogan, James
Velocity and size measurements of ejecta derived from impacts of railgun-launched projectiles into 10 mm thick gabbro tiles are examined. Fragmentation of the target and the ejecta velocity field are found to be governed by Hertzian fracture and the transfer of kinetic energy to the target. Over...
