What is the Australian National Maritime Museum Ilma collection?

ABSTRACT

The Australian National Maritime Museum (ANMM) in their Darling Harbour warehouse store just over one thousand Ilma. The Ilma are performance symbols of Bardi law and custom, which tell stories of the lands and seas of the Dampier Peninsula, King Sound and surrounding islands of Western Australia. Ilma performances are public and meant for all to see. The ANMM in 2007 resourced detailed documentation of the collection. In 2018 the collection still does not appear on the online catalogue and remains unavailable for public view. While recent efforts have been put into the collection there are important questions to be raised about the responsibility of museums to collections that have contested meanings and serve multiple purposes.     

基于STAR-CCM+的汽车挡风玻璃除霜性能提升的仿真分析与研究

采用计算流体动力学的方法,利用STAR-CCM+软件对某一车型挡风玻璃除霜性能进行数值模拟分析。通过对出风口格栅进行调整,改变了暖风气流与挡风玻璃之间碰撞角的大小与碰撞点的位置,优化了挡风玻璃表面暖风气流的分布,提升了除霜性能,为汽车除霜风道的设计和改善车辆除霜性能提供了参考。     

高职大学英语真实性课程评价方案的设计

真实性课程评价是近十几年来国际流行的课程评价方式,其能力本位的评价特点,决定其可以在高职大学英语能力培养方面起到重要作用。为实施高职大学英语真实性评价,需要根据高职各专业的英语能力需求,在英语课程评价各个环节进行真实性的设计,其中文化演练部分的评价设计是真实性评价设计的核心。     

No harmless child labor: The effect of child labor on academic achievement in francophone Western and Central Africa

This study empirically examines the effect of child labor on academic achievement in 10 francophone Western and Central African countries. The data were taken from the Programme d’Analyse des Systèmes Educatifs de la CONFEMEN and comprised characteristics of 25,288 grade six students across 1803 schools. Two-stage least squares analysis highlights that child labor undermines academic achievement regardless of subject, gender, and age. It lowers reading and mathematics scores for both genders and for children under 12 and over 13 years. Child labor therefore hinders human capital accumulation in African countries, and it takes place at the cost of future prosperity.     

Outstanding performances during elite-standard short and middle-distance finals and the hyperandrogenism regulation—A detailed analysis of Caster Semenya’s results

ABSTRACT

Recently, there has been much controversy over the International Association of Athletics Federation (IAAF) regulations regarding eligibility to compete and natural testosterone levels in female athletes. Much interest lies in the analysis of Caster Semenya's extraordinary performance. The objective of this work were, a) Complete an analysis of Caster Semenya's results during the 800m finals and b) search for existing similar performances by other female athletes. We analysed the results of the finals of all IAAF World Championships and Olympic Games from 1984–2016, including the 800m results of the Diamond Leagues 2016–2018. Exponential curves were fit to the data to characterise and predict performance for each event. Caster Semenya's finishing times before her ineligibility to compete and after the suspension of the IAAF hyperandrogenism regulation were found to be 1.24% and 1.49%, respectively, faster than the characteristic performance of the elite-standard in the women’s 800m final. Other female athletes, with finishing times faster than the ones predicted by the characteristic curves were also discovered. The percentage difference in performance between Caster Semenya and the other participants did not reach 3% in the 800m event. No conclusions can be drawn regarding extraordinary results ever performed during the 100m, 200m or 400m finals.     

“双‘三维一体’”协同教育观研究

"协同教育"是协同学理论在教育领域应用而形成的新的教育理论。"双‘三维一体’"协同教育是在整合"三维一体"协同教育优点,总结"三维一体"协同教育在实践过程中出现的不足和缺陷而形成的新的理论。"双‘三维一体’"协同教育强调纵向"三维一体"——学校、家庭、社会各系统教育力量的互相结合、协调统一,同时强调横向"三维一体"——哲学、科学、实践的结合、协调、同步,同时还强调纵向与横向"三维一体"的彼此融合、协调、协同发展。     

田径表演赛可行性探析

随着科技水平的发展，电视、多媒体网络等各种传播媒介的迅速发展，体育产业的迅速崛起，人们生活质量的提高、财富的积累，使得人们对体育的诉求也在不断的发生着变化。各种体育赛事逐步融入了表演赛，来扩大本项运动的国际影响力。由于体育明星效应，使得一些体育运动在国内一度掀起过高潮。那么，我们可以借鉴这种市场化的操作方式，从宏观的角度论述田径表演赛，通过明星效应，结合市场管理的方法，提升对田径运动兴趣，加大对田径运动知识的了解、认识，从而起到缓解瓶颈期学校体育中田径常年不受学生青睐的尴尬局面，迎来田径发展新“春天”。

"合作式学习、督促式参与和小组化评分"的教学探索

"合作式学习、督促式参与和小组化评分"正是在坚持传统理论教学基础上对教学活动量化的探索和模式创新,主要由"合作式学习"、"督促式参与"和"小组化评分"三个相互联系的教学环节结合而成,而学生的课程最终成绩将由"小组总成绩"、"个人表现成绩",以及通过学期考试所得到的"卷面成绩"三部分组成。
