Children’s perceptions of mindfulness apps for enhanced learning
(2021-03-01)
Mindfulness, a practice that focuses on controlling breathing and the flight or fight response, has been used in schools to support students. This study explored student and teacher perceptions of a mindfulness app, Smiling ...
Ready, Teacher One
(2021-08-01)
This study examines how French First-language teachers responded to virtual reality (VR) professional development in 2021 in the province of Ontario. The teachers used higher-end VR Oculus Quest 2 systems in a digital, ...
An exploration of SDT need fulfillment in a synchronous online learning environment
(2021-04-01)
In this paper, I report results from a qualitative case study that explores SDT need fulfillment within a synchronous online learning environment. SDT addresses how the sociocultural conditions an individual experiences ...
Towards low dose retrospective dosimetry on shelled species
(2020-08-01)
This work investigates calcified tissues of shelled species for retrospective dosimetry using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. To determine applicable samples for low dose studies, shells of crustacean ...
Local dose coefficients for radionuclide contamination in wounds
(2020-05-01)
The objective of this research is to create local dose coefficients for radionuclide contaminated wounds to accompany dose coefficients obtained by Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education looking at whole body effects ...
Planning and optimization of nuclear-renewable micro hybrid energy systems for off-grid applications
(2020-11-01)
Resilient operation of medium/large scale off-grid energy systems is a key challenge for energy crisis solutions, which requires continuous and sustainable energy resources. In this context, microreactors are incorporated ...
Characterization of PVA-Borax-fructose gel for the capture of radioactive wastes generated during nuclear decommissioning activities
(2021-05-01)
With the long-term objective of using polymer gels for the capture of solid, liquid and gaseous waste generated from decommissioning works, characterization of gel properties as well as the properties of the individual ...
Study of contaminants in plasmas during decommissioning processes
(2020-12-01)
With the intention of eventual development of on-site radionuclide capture technologies, methods to simulate radionuclide behaviour when contaminated components are subjected to plasma-based decommissioning processes are ...
Analysis and optimal planning of nuclear-renewable hybrid energy systems for ships
(2021-06-01)
Ocean-going ships are one of the sources of global GHG emissions. Several actions are being taken to reduce the GHG emissions from maritime vessels, and integration of Renewable Energy Sources (RESs) is one of them. Due ...
Environmental impact of zebra mussel controls in nuclear power plants
(2020-04-01)
Industries that rely on the Great Lakes for cooling have battled the zebra mussel infestation for years. With increasing emphasis on environmental sustainability, decision-makers need to consider more than just monetary ...
