Improving Academic Advising Through Student Seminars: A Case Study

Effective advising can be a challenge for most criminal justice and criminology programs due to the high enrollment and the variety of careers available in the field. One technique designed to address these challenges is the group advising method. The purpose of this study was to examine the details, processes, and execution of a particular group advising method, called student advising seminars, implemented over a two-year period in a criminal justice department at a four-year state-owned university. Preliminary data measuring student accountability and satisfaction are also examined. The findings indicate student advising seminars, as it is described in this case study, have a potential of providing effective and efficient advising.

中国航空航天器制造业R&D活动投入产出绩效分析

依据"十二五"期间中国航空航天器制造业的相关数据,在对航空航天器制造业R&D活动投入产出现状分析的基础上,采用DEA模型及Malmquist指数对中国航空航天器制造业R&D活动的绩效水平进行分析.结果表明:"十二五"期间中国航空航天器制造业R&D活动的资源投入无论是在绝对量还是年均增长率上都处于较低水平,但在产出上,虽然绝对量水平较低,但其年均增长率却处于领先水平;2011至2015年中国航空航天器制造业R&D活动的综合效率属于严重DEA无效,其规模效率处于较低水平但其规模报酬一直处于递增的状态;与2011年相比,2015年中国航空航天器制造业R&D活动的全要素生产效率在这5个行业中的增长速率最快,这主要取决于其规模效率的提高,这与中国致力推动航空航天器制造业的发展相呼应.

一种提高室内定位精度的模糊逻辑方法

超宽带技术由于其精确的定时分辨率,在视距（LOS）和非视距（NLOS）混合环境中应用前景广阔。为提高跟踪精确度、消除与UWB跟踪系统测距数据集异常值,构建合适的误差抑制方法,提出一种误差抑制方法。首先对环境进行建模,分析LOS和NLOS环境中的信号参数;然后,采用基于模糊逻辑的两步自适应定位算法,分析和选择最佳测距数据,用于计算被跟踪设备的位置;使用模糊加权最小二乘估计（FWLSE）方法对非视距（NLOS）混合环境中的实际数据进行测试。实验结果表明,与其它已知算法相比,该方法定位精度显著提高18.28%,且在实际应用中易于实现。

A level and Beyond: A Case Study

Question: At this early stage how do you feel about the transition from sixth-form life to life in higher education? Answer: I'm rather unsure as I expected that the standards expected would be harder but they're not; e.g. in English instead of expecting a greater understanding of certain ‘principles’ we have already studied, the subject has taken a shift in a different direction (is this clear?). Instead of doing character studies and interpretation of texts, we are applying headings such as ‘sonnet and ode’, ‘authority’, ‘varieties of non fictional prose’.

Organizational Change: A Case Study

Universities are often characterized as highly resistant to change, but this is not always true. In circumstances of major threat to institutional survival they may be as susceptible to change as any other large complex organization. This article presents a case study of major organizational change in a mid-sized (17,000 students) university in Ontario, Canada. It concludes that, while formal internal processes may vary from one institution to another, many of the tenets of change theory applicable to other organizations also apply in universities. Lessons about when and how such change can be effected are suggested.     

Cost-Consequences Analysis: A Case Study

The means and resources used by an organization are best understood within the context of results and payoffs. Organizations, both public and private, are means to societal ends. In order to be accountable for their value to society, organizations must demonstrate that what they produce and/or deliver is of positive value for the time, money, and resources invested. If an organization is to spend time, money, and resources on interventions, social initiatives, organizational re-alignment, or a quality management/continuous improvement process, leaders and decision makers frequently want to know if the value of their results is worth the investments. The Cost-Consequences Analysis offers a coarse-grain estimate of return-on-in-vestment when there is not the necessity nor time and/or resources available for a complete determination of all of the variables that actually go into a return-on-investment analysis.
