Abbott Elementary’s principal Ava Coleman - a contrast for Black female administrators
(2022-11-01)
Using Mikos’ (2014) film analysis technique, the role of Ava Coleman in the mockumentary sitcom Abbott Elementary is dissected and contrasted to the researched experiences of Black women principals. The research on Black ...
Incorporating digital play into scientific inquiry
(2022-12-01)
Play and inquiry have been recognised as effective facets of learning science (Vartiainen et al., 2020). Several researchers have highlighted the importance of incorporating digital play into K-12 students’ science education ...
Fidelity in simulation-based training in diverse professions: a proposed taxonomy
(2022-10-01)
This paper examines the concept of fidelity within simulation-based training (SBT) across multiple professional fields. This paper: develops a taxonomy to classify tasks trained via SBT across diverse professional fields; ...
Effect of neck muscle vibration on upper limb sensorimotor integration and motor performance
(2022-07-01)
Upper limb control depends on accurate internal models of the position of the limbs relative to the head and neck. The cerebellum is heavily involved in SMI of neck sensory inputs and motor learning; therefore, it is likely ...
Neural markers of antisocial behaviour in offenders and their relationship with risk-factors of offending
(2022-03-01)
The relationship between neural integrity and offending patterns has been increasingly evaluated to better understand the mechanisms that predispose towards offending behaviours. While this work has made inroads into ...
Improving understanding of rape proclivity
(2022-04-01)
The current dissertation included three studies that together aimed to improve understanding of rape proclivity as a potential construct related to sexual violence. In the first study, participants' understanding of the ...
Functionalized carbon surfaces for clean electrochemical energy systems
(2022-03-01)
The development and implementation of clean energy technologies is the way to overcome the global energy crisis and reduce pollution. Therefore, new energy solutions are rapidly needed. Fuel cells (FCs) may become one such ...
Generative models for multi-modality image inpainting and resolution enhancement
(2022-04-01)
Recently, deep learning methods specifically generative adversarial networks (GANs) have been used to rapidly improve a wide range of image enhancement tasks including image inpainting and image resolution enhancement also ...
Novel electrode materials and advanced electrochemical diagnostics for electrochromic devices
(2022-04-01)
Electrochromic materials (ECMs) are a class of “smart” materials used in a variety of applications due to the ability to alter their optical properties with the application of a potential. For these applications, ECMs are ...
The effects of rapport building on information disclosure in virtual interviews
(University of Ontario Institute of Technology, 2022-06-01)
Rapport-building has been identified as an effective tool when interviewing victims and witnesses of events that may be sensitive in nature. The objective of this study was to examine the rapport-building process within a ...
