Abdelwahed, Yosra. „Essai de modélisation de l’entrepreneuriat transgénérationnel dans les entreprises familiales : cas de la Tunisie“. Electronic Thesis or Diss., Paris 8, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020PA080003.
Annotation:
Différentes théories ont été appliquées à l'interface de l'entrepreneuriat et de la recherche sur les entreprises familiales pour explorer les comportements entrepreneuriaux des familles. Le projet STEP, en particulier, associe la recherche sur l’entrepreneuriat et les entreprises familiales afin d’enquêter sur les déterminants de la réussite du transfert de l’esprit entrepreneurial entre générations. Dans cette perspective, l’entrepreneuriat transgénérationnel fait référence à l’entrepreneuriat familial durable qui génère un flux systématique de richesses sociales et économiques influencées par la famille sur plusieurs générations. L'objectif de cette recherche est de mieux comprendre l'entrepreneuriat perpétuel dans les entreprises familiales en Tunisie. Nous avons suivi une méthodologie mixte : qualitative et quantitative à travers la collecte des données auprès des entreprises familiales. Les résultats de nos travaux ont conduit à une compréhension importante des interactions entre la famille et l'entreprise familiale, ainsi qu'à de nouvelles connaissances sur la survie et la disparition des entreprises. Par conséquent, nous avançons dans la théorie et la pratique de l'entrepreneuriat en évaluant les fondements de la construction d'un modèle d’affaires dans le contexte de l'entreprise familiale, accélérant ainsi des perspectives théoriques plus fortes de l’entrepreneuriat transgénérationnelDifferent theories have been applied at the interface of entrepreneurship and family business research to explore the entrepreneurial behaviors of families. The STEP project, in particular, has related entrepreneurship and family business research to investigate and realize the determinants of successful transfers of entrepreneurial spirit across generations. Within this perspective, Transgenerational entrepreneurship refers to sustained family-based entrepreneurship that generates a systematic stream of family-influenced social and economic wealth across many generations. The aim of this research is to have a better comprehension of continuous entrepreneurship in family firms in Tunisia. We followed a mixed methodology : qualitative and quantitative through the data collection from family firms. The results of our work has led to important understandings about interactions of the family and family firm, new insights into survival and demise of firms.Accordingly, we go forward entrepreneurship theory and practice by assessing the fundamentals of business model construction within the family business context, thus expediting stronger theoretical perspectives of transgenerational entrepreneurship

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The logical scheduling of activities in an engineering project currently relies heavily on the experience and intuition of the persons responsible for the schedule. In large projects the complexity of the schedule far exceeds the capacity of human intuition, and systematic techniques are required to compute a consistent sequence of activities. In this study a simple model of the engineering process is described. Based on certain specified relationships between components of the model, a consistent sequence of activities is determined in the form of a logical step schedule. The problem of resource constraints receives special attention. Engineering projects are often executed with limited resources and determining the impact of such restrictions on the logical step schedule is important. This study investigates activityshifting strategies to find a near-optimal sequence of activities that guarantees consistent evolution of deliverables while resolving resource conflicts within the context of logical step schedules.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die logiese skedulering van aktiwiteite in ‘n ingenieursprojek steun swaar op die ondervinding en intuisie van die persone wat verantwoordelik is vir die skedule. In groot projekte is die kompleksiteit van die skedule veel hoër as die kapasiteit van die menslike intuisie, en sistematiese tegnieke word benodig om ‘n konsekwente volgorde van aktiwiteite te bereken. In hierdie studie word ‘n eenvoudige model van die ingenieursproses beskryf. Gebasseer op sommige relasies tussen komponente van die model, kan ‘n konsekwente volgorde van aktiwiteite bepaal word in die vorm van ‘n logiese stap-skedule. Die probleem van beperkte hulpbronne ontvang spesiale aandag. Ingenieursprojekte word dikwels uitgevoer met beperkte hulpbronne en dit is belangrik om die impak daarvan op die logiese stap-skedule te bepaal. Die studie ondersoek die gebruik van aktiwiteit-skuiwende strategieë om ‘n nabyoptimale volgorde van aktiwiteite te vind wat konsekwente ontwikkeling van die projekprodukte waarborg, terwyl hulpbron konflikte opgelos word binne die konteks van ‘n logiese stap-skedule.

Gutierrez, Carina. „Project Increasing Interest in STEM for Underrepresented Females Using Historical Vignettes“. Thesis, California State University, Long Beach, 2018. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10784130.
Annotation:
Women are underrepresented in the STEM workforce. Trends are starting to change as more and more women are starting to choose majors that are related to STEM. However, the numbers decline sharply in engineering, physical sciences and computer sciences. This project was created as a resource to be used in schools to encourage the increase of women studying, and eventually working, in STEM fields. Research has shown that many women who choose STEM majors and careers were heavily influenced by informal STEM enrichment opportunities outside of the school day and female role models in STEM. This project is an NGSS aligned lesson that incorporates a historical vignette highlighting the work of a female scientist. The vignette can be used in a lesson or as a pull out in a different class or program.

Annotation:
In this thesis the application of machine learning algorithms as a tool in the search for top squark is studied. Two neural network models are trained with simulated stop events as signal against dileptonic and semi-leptonic top pair production events as background. There is a substantial class imbalance between the number of signal and background samples that are used. The performance of the neural network models are compared to the performance of a cut and count method. None of the models outperform the standard cut and count method.

Annotation:
The World Wide Web contains a vast amount of information. This feature makes it a very useful part of our everyday activities but the information contained within is made up of an exponentially increasing repository of semantically unstructured data. The semantic web movement involves the evolution of the existing World Wide web in order to enable computers make meaning of and understand the data they process and consequently increase their processing capabilities. Over the past decade a number of new projects implementing the semantic web technology have been developed albeit still in their infancy. These projects are based on semantic data models and one such is the Wikidata project. The Wikidata project is targeted at providing a more semantic platform for editing and sharing data throughout the Wikipedia and Wikimedia communities. This project studies how the Wikidata project facilitates such a semantic platform for the Wikimedia communities and includes the development of an application utilizing the semantic capabilities of Wikidata. The objective of the project is to develop an application capable of retrieving and presenting statistical data and also be able to make missing or invalid data on Wikidata detectable. The result is an application currently aimed at researchers and students who require a convenient tool for statistical data collection and data mining projects. Usability and performance tests of the application are also conducted with the results presented in the report. Keywords: Semantic web, World Wide Web, Semantic data model, Wikidata, data mining.

Pozarski, Connolly Catherine J. „Evaluating the Effectiveness of Project ReCharge| A STEM Based Energy Efficiency Curriculum“. Thesis, University of Nevada, Reno, 2018. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10682929.
Annotation:
This research evaluates the effectiveness of Project ReCharge, an energy efficiency, STEM curriculum designed for middle and high school students. The project includes a five-unit curriculum, and monthly professional development spanning a year. The project was implemented in ten schools over three years. Four areas were explored in the study including (1) changes to student content knowledge, (2) changes to student attitudes towards STEM subjects and careers, (3) changes to teacher self-efficacy and beliefs, and (4) changes to teacher content knowledge. A content test for teachers and students, the STEM Semantics Survey, and STEBI-A were used to collect data on 4123 students and 47 teachers. Data were collected in a quasi-experimental design utilizing parametric and nonparametric techniques. Analyses suggest student content knowledge increased significantly from pretest to posttest for all years (Pretest: M = 11.38, SD = 4.97, Posttest: M = 16.67, SD = 5.83, t = 45.05, p < 0.001, d = 0.98). Increases to student attitudes in STEM varied by year and grade, but overall increases were found in science (N = 2362, z = –2.618, p = 0.030, η 2 = 0.002), and math attitudes (N = 2348, z = –2.280, p = 0.023, η2 = 0.002). High school students tended to show more increased attitudes in more subject areas than middle school students. No changes to teacher self-efficacy and beliefs were found, and increases to teacher content knowledge only occurred in the third year (N = 22, x2 = 5.158; p = 0.076, η2 = 0.319).

Harvey, Ross. „A Case Study of Policy Transfer: Examining the National Rollout of Project STOP“. Thesis, Griffith University, 2013. http://hdl.handle.net/10072/365809.
Annotation:
This thesis conducts a multi-level policy transfer analysis of a governmental response to the problem of pseudoephedrine diversion. Pseudoephedrine is an active ingredient in over-the counter cold and flu medication available from pharmacists and also acts as a precursor chemical in the illicit production of Amphetamine-Type-Stimulants (ATS).
ATS are synthetically produced psychotropic drugs that are subject to international and national controls on their production, supply and use. Throughout the late 1990s and mid 2000s there was a large increase in the rates of use and production of ATS in Australia. Between the years of 2001-2005, clandestine production of ATS was particularly pronounced in Queensland where the laboratory detections outnumbered all other states in Australia combined. Over 90% of clandestine laboratories detected in Australia relied upon the diversion of pseudoephedrine from legitimate pharmaceutical products.
In 2006, in response to the increased diversion of pseudoephedrine from pharmacies into the illicit drug manufacturing market and as a means for pharmacists to fulfil their record-keeping regulatory obligations, the Pharmacy Guild of Australia developed Project STOP. Project STOP is a tool that assists pharmacists in making an informed decision regarding the supply of products that contain pseudoephedrine. It is supported by a legislative framework that requires a driver’s licence number to be entered into an electronic database for the purchasing history of the customer to be reviewed before a decision regarding supply is made.
Following its initial implementation in Queensland, Project STOP was subsequently transferred to all other jurisdictions in Australia as part of a national rollout. This thesis conducts an analysis of the transfer of Project STOP as a governmental response to the problem of pseudoephedrine diversion. It presents three levels of analysis to provide a comprehensive understanding of the conditions of possibility for the development of Project STOP; an assessment of how it came to be identified as the national solution to the problem of pseudoephedrine; and, how Project STOP works in the applied domain following its transfer. It concludes by outlining the broader implications of this study for policy transfer.Thesis (PhD Doctorate)

Annotation:
Falls are a major public health concern and contribute significantly to mortality and morbidity in the older adult population. Each year, approximately 3 million older adults are treated in emergency departments for fall-related injuries and at least 300,000 older people are hospitalized for hip fractures. The purpose of this project was to improve the participants' knowledge and highlight interventions to reduce the incidence of falls and injuries as a result of falls. The project was developed using the Stop Accidents, Deaths and Injuries (STEADI) toolkit, the Iowa model of evidence-based practice to promote quality of care, and the Lewin's change theory. The practice-focused question related to whether fall prevention would improve following the implementation of a staff education project using the STEADI toolkit. Twenty-six nurses were assessed to determine their knowledge deficits. Pretest and posttest data were analyzed, and as a result of the staff education initiative, the nurses' knowledge increased by 99.25%. Prior to the session, the facility had not participated in a fall-prevention initiative. This project offered a practical solution to the educational gaps identified at the practice setting. Adopting the STEADI toolkit at the practice setting is expected to improve patient safety, reduce falls with injuries and prevent fall-related deaths.

Annotation:
The multiple case study investigated levels and types of transfer observed in a K-8 STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) academy in a project-based learning (PBL) environment. The academy was constructed two years prior to the study and conducive to PBL instruction. The students and teachers were in the second year of using PBL in the subject of science at the time of the study. The grade levels observed were second, fourth, and sixth grade and each grade level had three PBL units examined from the beginning to the end of the unit. The nine case studies, from the three different grade levels, were observed to identify Haskell's levels and types of transfer as determined by project requirements, observation of students, completed projects, and student interviews. The findings from this study showed that while projects moved the students beyond knowledge acquisition to application of knowledge in completed projects such as books, films, dances, etc., higher levels of transfer and more types of transfer were not evident. Therefore, based on the results of this study, the evidence of lower levels of transfer suggests that the PBL units, though inventive and potentially valuable to student learning, were not designed for higher levels of transfer.

Thesis advisor: Katherine McNeillGaining popular recognition in the U.S. with the advent of the first White House Maker Faire in 2014, makerspaces have become an increasingly popular feature of the K-12 educational landscape. While makerspaces have been subject to critique related to the lack of inclusivity within the broader predominantly white and male ‘maker culture’, they have also been recognized for their potential to include and attract students that have been historically underrepresented in the STEM fields, specifically female, African-American and Latinx students (Halverson & Sheridan, 2014; Kafai et al., 2014; Vossoughi, et al., 2016). However, despite their popularity and the growing body of empirical evidence documenting their use in the K-12 context, there are many topics that warrant further exploration, from teachers’ experiences with making, to the processes involved in their long term success or failure, and issues related to leadership, professional development and teacher expertise (Haron & Hughes, 2018). Responding to the need for greater understanding of these issues, this exploratory case study examines the organizational and curricular role of an established middle school makerspace through observations, student surveys, and individual interviews with teachers and school leaders. Findings of this study revealed themes related to (a) discrepancies between participants’ aspirational ideals and the practical reality of their experiences; (b) the important role of flexibility and rigidity within the curriculum and school structures; and (c) the mutually influential relationships that exist between materials, identity, expertise and participation. Each of these themes held specific consequences for equity and inclusion. The findings of this study highlight the critical importance of attending to equity in the implementation of maker learning environments and the central role that school structures, materials and perceptions play in addressing historical inequities in making and STEAM. This study concludes with recommendations for researchers, teachers and school leaders that place equity at the center of plans for school-based making and directions for future research

A complexidade do projeto de sistemas eletrônicos, devido ao número de ferramentas envolvidas, ao grande volume de dados gerado e a natureza complicada destes dados, foi a causa principal do aparecimento, no final da década de 80, dos frameworks. Frameworks são plataformas que suportam o desenvolvimento de ambientes de projeto e que tem, como objetivo principal, liberar os projetistas das tarefas acessórias dentro do processo de projeto (como, por exemplo, a gerencia dos dados criados), possibilitando-lhes direcionar os esforços, exclusivamente, para a obtenção de melhores resultados, em menor tempo e a baixo custo. Para a realização deste objetivo, diversas técnicas são utilizadas na construção dos frameworks. Uma delas é conhecida como documentação dos passos de projeto. A documentação dos passos de projeto é um recurso utilizado para manter a história do projeto (usualmente, ferramentas executadas e dados gerados). Ela tem sido amplamente utilizada em trabalhos relacionados a frameworks. Porém, nenhum destes trabalhos aproveita toda a potencialidade do recurso. Alguns utilizam-no apenas nos serviços relacionados a gerencia de dados. Outros, utilizam-no apenas nos serviços relacionados a gerencia de projeto. A proposta deste trabalho, então, é a criação de um sistema que explore toda a potencialidade da documentação dos passos de projeto, disponibilizando, a partir daí, informações e serviços a outros sub-sistemas do framework, de forma a complementar a funcionalidade destes, tornando-os mais abrangentes e poderosos.The VLSI design complexity, due to the number of involved tools, the enormous generated data volume and the complex nature of the data, was the main cause of the appearance of the frameworks in the end of the 80's. Frameworks are platforms that support the development of design environments and, as their main purpose, liberate the VLSI designers from the supplementary tasks in the design process, as the data management. It makes possible to direct efforts exclusively to obtaining better results, in shorter time and with lower costs. To this purpose, many techniques have been used in the implementation of frameworks. One of these techniques is known as design steps documentation. The design steps documentation is a resource used to keep the design history (usually, executed tools and generated data). It has been widely used in various frameworks. But none of them take full advantage of this resource. Some of them use the design steps documentation only in the data management services. Others, use it only in the design management services. So, the proposal of this work is to create a system that takes full advantage of the design steps documentation, providing information and services to other sub-systems of the framework to complement their functionality, making them more powerful.

Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Medicina VeterináriaOs parasitas são reconhecidos como importante causa de doença em equídeos. Ainda hoje, existem graves lacunas no que diz respeito ao controlo das principais parasitoses, quer pelo desconhecimento por parte dos proprietários do fenómeno parasitário e da necessidade do seu controlo, quer pela necessidade de um papel mais ativo dos médicos veterinários no tratamento e controlo das parasitoses. Com base nesta situação, a Merial Saúde Animal, Grupo Sanofi em colaboração com o Centro de Investigação Interdisciplinar em Sanidade Animal, Faculdade de Medicina Veterinária, Universidade Técnica de Lisboa (CIISA/FMV/UTL), desenvolveram o projeto, “Rastreio STOP” (Simples Teste de Ovos Parasitários), que permitiu a realização desta dissertação de mestrado. O principal objetivo deste projeto foi estudar o parasitismo gastrintestinal dos equídeos pré-tratamento e avaliar a eficácia terapêutica decorrente da implementação de um programa de desparasitação de equídeos, com contagem de OPG e culturas fecais antes e pós tratamento. Assim, na aquisição de uma embalagem de medicamento contendo Ivermectina e/ou Ivermectina + Praziquantel, foi fornecido ao proprietário um Kit contendo dois sacos para colheita de fezes no dia 0 e dia 21 após desparasitação. As amostras foram enviadas ao Laboratório de Parasitologia e Doenças Parasitárias da FMV-UTL e submetidas a análise pelas técnicas de McMaster, Willis, Sedimentação e Coprocultura. Os resultados obtidos foram enviados posteriormente quer ao MV assistente, quer ao proprietário do(s) animal(ais). Os resultados apresentados referem-se à análise de amostras de um total de 85 animais. Pela técnica de McMaster observou-se que 32.9% das amostras eram positivas e que 67.1% negativas indicando que em Portugal Continental os animais são desparasitados sem avaliação prévia que indique a necessidade de desparasitação. Já nas coproculturas 39% eram positivas e 61% negativas. Tal como acontece nos restantes países do Mundo, observou-se um predomínio de Cyathostomum spp., cuja abundância nas amostras analisadas foi superior a 80% do total de larvas encontradas. As diferenças observadas no valor de OPG entre os animais estabulados e os animais ao ar livre, assim como no valor de OPG e o intervalo de tempo entre as desparasitações, foram consideradas estatisticamente significativas. Para determinar a eficácia terapêutica da Ivermectina e da associação da Ivermectina + Praziquantel, foi realizado o Teste de Redução de Contagem de Ovos Fecais (TRCOF), verificando-se 100% de eficácia destas substâncias ativas nos animais incluídos neste projeto, com exceção de um caso de eventual eficácia duvidosa (93,7%). De salientar, que em 13 animais só foi colhida a 1ªamostra e, portanto, para estes não foi possível avaliar a eficácia do anti-helmíntico utilizado. O Projeto STOP permitiu verificar que: a) a análise prévia dos animais antes da desparasitação deverá continuar a fazer parte integrante dos programas de controlo anti-parasitário; b) a ivermectina continua a ser um princípio ativo altamente eficaz; c) os programas de controlo e os princípios ativos utilizados nos mesmos devem ser monitorizados regularmente para confirmação da sua eficácia.
ABSTRACT - Implementation of the project Rastreio STOP (Simple Tests of Parasitic Eggs) in equids in Portugal mainland - Parasites are recognized as a major cause of disease in horses. Even today, there are serious gaps regarding the control of their major parasitic diseases, either by owners ignorance of the parasitic phenomenon and the need for itscontrol, or by the lack of a more active role by the veterinarian in the treatment and control of parasitic diseases. Based on this issue, Merial Animal Health, Sanofi Group and the Interdisciplinary Research Centre in Animal Health, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Technical University of Lisbon (CIISA/FMV/UTL), developed the project "RASTREIO STOP" (Simple Test Of Parasitic Eggs), which allowed this master thesis. The main objective of this project was to study the gastrointestinal parasitism before treatment in horses and evaluate the effectiveness of the implementation of a deworming program for horses, accompanied by pre and post EPG counts and faecal cultures. For this, the acquisition of a medicine package containing Ivermectin and / or Ivermectin + Praziquantel, the owner receives a kit containing bags for collection of feces on day 0 and day 21 of deworming. Later, they sent the samples to the Laboratory of Parasitology and Parasitic Diseases of the FMV-UTL, where parasitological techniques were performed, namely McMaster counts, Willis flotation test, Sedimentation test and fecal cultures. Finally, a report was sent with the results of analysis to the veterinary practitioner and the owner. The results represent the samples from 85 animals. In McMaster technique it was found that 32.9% of samples were positive and 67.1% were negative, which shows that in Portugal mainland, animals continue to be dewormed without prior evaluation indicating the need for deworming. From fecal cultures performed to date, 39% were positive and 61% were negative. As reported elsewhere in the world, there was a predominance of Cyathostomum spp., with an abundance in the positive samples greater than 80% of larvae found. The differences observed in the amount of EPG between stabled and outdoor animals, as well as the amount of EPG and the time gap between deworming were considered statistically significant. Concerning the Faecal Egg Reduction Test (FECRT), 100% efficacy was observed for ivermectin in the analyzed samples, with the exception of one case of doubtful efficacy (93,7%). A remark should be made,since in 13 animals only the 1st sample was collected and therefore it was not possible for these animals to evaluate the efficacy of the used anthelmintic. Project STOP has shown that: a) the previous analysis of animals before deworming should continue to be an integral part of control programs antiparasitic b) ivermectin remains a highly effective active ingredient c) control programs and active ingredients used in them should be monitored regularly to confirm their effectiveness.

O projeto “Física Animada é uma proposta que usa a técnica stop motion para ensinar conceitos da cinemática de maneira mais participativa e divertida para alunos do Ensino Médio, levando os alunos a compreenderem conceitos de deslocamento, posição, velocidade e aceleração, além de desenvolverem habilidades de interpretação de gráficos, tabelas e vetores, e também de relacionar os gráficos da cinemática com o movimento efetuado. Essa técnica consiste na criação do movimento quadro a quadro e existem diversas animações bem conhecidas como exemplos de sua aplicação. Neste trabalho, três etapas foram propostas para a condução do projeto e seguidas durante a aplicação: (i) Criação das personagens em massa de modelar; (ii) Gravação de vídeos com movimentos de velocidade constante e variável; (iii) Análise dos movimentos no vídeo para confrontar o modelo mental com os modelos da mecânica Newtoniana. A pesquisa foi conduzida em uma escola estadual voltada para o ensino de jovens e adultos (CEJA Centro de Educação de Jovens e Adultos) e ao longo do ano 2014 o minicurso foi realizado diversas vezes com diferentes alunos. No projeto foram utilizados dois softwares gratuitos: o MUAN, para a criação dos vídeos, e o Tracker, para a análise cinemática. Ambos possuem uma interface intuitiva e amigável, o que favorece o uso como ferramenta de ensino. Ao longo da aplicação do projeto, foram realizados exames diagnósticos com os alunos antes e após o minicurso de quatro aulas. Além disso, foram entregues questionários para todos os participantes e realizadas entrevistas com os que se voluntariaram a gravar suas impressões sobre a atividade. Verificou-se ainda a validade do projeto visando o aumento do interesse e da motivação dos alunos em se tratando do aprendizado de tópicos em cinemática e mecânica.
The Project “Animated Physics” is a proposal that uses the stop motion animation technique to teach concepts of kinematics in an active and fun way for high school students. This technique consists on the creation of motion frame by frame and there are several well-known animated movies as examples of its application. In this work, three steps were proposed for the project implementation: (i) Creation of characters in putty; (ii) Recording videos with constant and variable speed motion; (iii) Analysis of movements in the video to confront the mental model with Newtonian mechanics models. The research was conducted in a public school focused on youth and adult education (CEJA in Portuguese, Education Center for Youth and Adults) and during the year 2014 a short course was applied several times to different students. The project was performed through two free softwares: MUAN, for the creation of videos, and Tracker, for kinematic analysis. Both have an intuitive and friendly interface, which allows the use as a teaching tool. During the implementation of the project, diagnostic tests were performed with students before and after a short course of four lessons. In addition, questionnaires were applied to all participants and interviews were conducted with those who volunteered to record their impressions on the activity. The aim of this project was to make students understand concepts of displacement, position, speed and acceleration, to develop graphics, tables, and vector interpretation skills, and also to relate kinematics graphics with motion. The validity of the project in order to increase the interest and motivation of students learning topics in kinematics and mechanics was also assessed.

Com o rápido avanço da tecnologia da informação associada à tecnologia da fabricação, os ambientes de manufatura mudaram significativamente nas últimas décadas. A usinagem de alta velocidade, usinagem de ultra-precisão e usinagem de múltiplos eixos tem melhorado a produtividade e a qualidade da manufatura. Além disso, a tecnologia da internet introduziu a e-manufatura (isto é, projetado por qualquer um em qualquer lugar, fabricado por qualquer um em qualquer lugar). A chave para o sucesso da e-manufatura consiste em um fluxo de dados compatíveis e sem brechas na cadeia CAD-CAPP-CAM-CNC. Apesar do avanço nas tecnologias de manufatura, a linguagem que as máquinas de comando numérico utilizam nos dias de hoje (código G # norma ISO 6983) ainda baseia-se nas movimentações da extremidade das ferramentas e no status da máquina, fazendo com que muitas informações acerca do produto sejam perdidas, tornando difícil ou impossível o compartilhamento de tais informações em diferentes áreas da empresa. O padrão ISO 14649 (STEP-NC) fornece um modelo de informações de alto nível referentes ao produto, como por exemplo o uso de features para a modelagem de peças e operações de fabricação, e este padrão tem sido apontado como uma ferramenta adequada para superar os problemas acima mencionados. Assim, para um mercado onde é bastante comum a elevada variabilidade das peças sendo produzidas, a alteração nas features que compõem a peça é mais rápida e fácil do que a alteração do código G para a usinagem da peça, e desta forma capacita-se as empresas a responderem mais rapidamente à mudança no projeto das peças, além de contribuir para acelerar a tomada de decisões referentes à fabricação das peças. Uma outra vantagem do uso de STEP-NC é que a sua estruturação proporciona que organizações de manufatura venham a compartilhar informações de maneira transparente via Internet. Tendo em vista o contexto acima, no presente trabalho foi desenvolvido um protótipo de um sistema computacional CAD/CAPP/CAM voltado à manufatura remota de peças mecânicas de característica prismática utilizando a Internet como meio de comunicação, sendo completamente aderente ao padrão ISO 14649. No sistema desenvolvido foram disponibilizadas inúmeras features para o usuário remoto, incluindo não apenas superfícies com características prismáticas, mas também elementos curvos como fundos abaulados de cavidades. Um dos módulos do sistema verifica se a peça criada pelo usuário é válida do ponto de vista de fabricabilidade com as ferramentas disponíveis. Além disso, o sistema identifica se a peça pode ser fabricada em uma máquina de comando numérico de três eixos, e no caso de impossibilidade o sistema informa o usuário o que causou a não-fabricabilidade. Finalmente, o sistema gera automaticamente o arquivo físico no formato STEP (padrão ISO 10303 parte 21), o qual é disponibilizado para o usuário via Internet, podendo ele efetuar uma simulação gráfica dos movimentos das ferramentas usinando a peça, tendo o arquivo físico como entrada. Até o momento não foi desenvolvido nenhum sistema computacional que disponibilize tal arquivo gratuitamente na Internet, e consequentemente o sistema desenvolvido neste trabalho contribui para uma maior disseminação do padrão STEP-NC, além do fato que o arquivo gerado poderá ser utilizado em máquinas CNC reais compatíveis com o formato STEP parte 21.
With the rapid advancement of information technology associated with manufacturing technology, manufacturing environments have changed significantly in recent decades. High speed machining, ultra-precision machining, and multi-axis machining have improved manufacturing productivity and quality. In addition, Internet technology has introduced e-manufacturing (i.e., designed by anyone anywhere, manufactured by anyone anywhere). The key to the success of e-manufacturing consists of compatible data stream with no gaps in the CAD-CAPP-CAM-CNC chain. Despite advances in manufacturing technologies, the language that are used by numerical control machines today (i.e. G-code - ISO 6983 standard) is still based on the movements of the end of the tools and on the machine status, causing the loss of much information about the product, making it difficult or impossible to share such information in different areas of the company. The ISO 14649 (STEP-NC) standard provides a model of high-level information about the product, such as the use of features for the modeling parts and manufacturing operations, and this standard has been recommended as a suitable tool to overcome the aforementioned problems. Thus, for a market where it is quite common the high variability of parts being produced, the change in features that compose the part is faster and easier than changing the G code for machining the part, and thus companies are enabled to respond more quickly to the change in part design, besides helping to accelerate decision-making related to the manufacture of parts. Another advantage of using STEP-NC is that its structure enables manufacturing organizations to share information seamlessly via the Internet. Given the above context, in the present research work a prototype CAD/CAPP/CAM computer system was developed for the remote manufacture of mechanical prismatic mechanical parts using the Internet as a means of communication, completely compliant with the ISO 14649 standard. In the developed system many features are provided to the remote user, including not only surfaces with prismatic features, but also curved elements like general cavities. One of the modules of the system verifies whether the part created by the user is valid from the standpoint of manufacturability with the tools available. In addition, the system identifies whether the part can be manufactured in a numerical control machine with three axes, and if that is not feasible, the system informs the user the cause of non-manufacturability. Finally, the system generates automatically the physical STEP file (ISO 10303 Part 21), which is provided to the user via the Internet, and he can perform a graphic simulation of the movement of the tools machining the part, having the physical file as input. So far no computer system was developed that provides such a file for free on the Internet, and therefore the system developed in this work contributes to a further spread of the STEP-NC standard, plus the fact that the generated file can be used in real CNC machines compatible with the STEP part 21 format.

Annotation:
Although there are currently various programs aimed at increasing the interest of high school students in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), very few programs have explored the students’ perceptions of the effectiveness of extracurricular STEM programs to their school learning and post-school aspirations. This research aimed to investigate high school students’ perceptions of a STEM research placement program integrated into their school curriculum, and how it contributed to their self-efficacy, attitude towards science and motivation to pursue a career in that field. A standard operating procedure (SOP) was then developed to inform future STEM-centred high school programs.

The thesis is a follow up of the “I SEE project” (Inclusive STEM Education to Enhance the capacity to aspire and imagine future careers), a triennial ERASMUS+ project, started in 2016 and ended in September 2019, coordinated by the Department of Physics and Astronomy of the University of Bologna (https://iseeproject.eu/).
The main aim of the project is to design of teaching modules on advanced interdisciplinary STEM topics, such as climate change, quantum computers or artificial intelligence, for secondary school students. The approach developed toward these STEM topics reflects the need of updating Science Education and preparing students to address the socio-scientific challenges that the world compels us to face.
The work of this thesis concerns the design and the development of an activity on classical and quantum random walk that aims to: i. carry out the intrinsic interdisciplinarity of the topic, ii. highlight the differences between the logic at the basis of the classical and quantum computers.
It is designed in the light of a follow-up of the I SEE project, the IDENTITIES project (https://identitiesproject.eu/). IDENTITIES (Integrate Disciplines to Elaborate Novel Teaching approaches to InTerdisciplinarity and Innovate pre-service teacher Education for STEM challenges) is an ERASMUS+ project, started in September 2019 and coordinated by the Department of Physics and Astronomy of the University of Bologna. This project, more focused on interdisciplinary themes, provides a lens to explore the random walk as a context in which we can investigate, on one hand, the peculiarities of the disciplines involved and, on the other, their intertwining.
A future-oriented part, my main contribution to the activity, is carried out in order to foster students to explore the wide range of application and implication that random walk hides and to show them the variety of STEM carriers that can be involved.

Ce projet, dénommé STEMP (Studenti a TEMpo Parziale) a concerné quatre cours universitaires (Economie, Politique, Histoire Contemporaine, Statistique et Sociologie) sous forme de cours sous tutorat et sur deux cycles trimestriels. Le relevé constant des besoins des utilisateurs grâce à des questionnaires a fourni une base de données qui constitue le "corpus" de la thèse et a permis de définir quelques profils caractéristiques d'étudiants et la récursivité de besoins particuliers. Son analyse m'a servi de base pour la conception et la réalisation des matériaux multimédia. Lors de la rédaction de ma thèse il m'est apparu judicieux, dans l'optique d'une présentation ergonomique précise mais compréhensible, d'utiliser un personnage fictif dont j'ai élaboré le profil gr^ace à l'analyse des données recueillies dans le questionnaire, mon but étant de réduire les différences inter-individuelles dans l'évolution intra-individuelle du sujet ; son parcours d'étude incarne le déroulement de ma recherche.

Annotation:
Headworks design in steep, sediment loaded rivers is challenging. Technical challenges related to the functionalities of the headworks area have been studied for the case of Lower Manang Marsyangdi (LMM) Hydropower Project (HPP), which is under design phase in Nepal. The Physical Hydraulic Model (PHM) study conducted at Hydro Lab focuses on intake hydraulics, sediment handling and trash removal along the intake. Experience from the physical model study of the LMM headworks has shown that the passage of sediments and bed control during flood periods are the major challenges in this hydropower project. Design of an optimal bed load handling component and the settling basin are very important to handle sediments without affecting the regularity in power generation.Velocity measurements were conducted at several cross-sections along the settling basins to evaluate the hydraulics. Turbulent Kinetic Energy (TKE) was calculated from the velocity measurements to assess the effect of secondary currents. The study has further focused on the concept of numerical modeling to replicate the hydraulics in the existing headworks model of LMM HPP. A Three-dimensional (3D) CFD-program, STAR CCM+, has been used to conduct the numerical model study of the intake hydraulics of LMM headworks. Through dye tests and measurements on the PHM it has been shown that final conceptual design, which is based on modifications conducted on the initial design, has an improved hydraulics along the intake. Vortices/eddies in front of the intakes and along the settling basins have been reduced and a uniform, symmetrical flow with the desired velocity of less than 1.00 m/s prototype value has been achieved along the settling basins. Further evaluation of TKE has shown significant decrease of turbulence level along the settling basins. Use of numerical model has to a large extent been successfully able to replicate the hydraulics in the modeled headworks of LMM HPP. The velocity range is comparable to the measured values in the laboratory. However, secondary currents and, thereby, the TKE values have not been reproduced properly in the numerical model. TKE for the first cross-section close to the inlet of the basin is similar but no significant trend can be observed between the other cross-sections. Numerical model requires boundary conditions determined from the PHM and results need to be validated against laboratory measurements to ensure their accuracy. Thus, it is recommended for numerical model studies to be used in combinations with PHM study. Numerical model requires an initial validation by comparing simulated flows to measured flows from the laboratory. The validated numerical model can then be used to predict further effects of modification in the headworks design and to optimize the conceptual design.

All big and important decisions come through analysis. The main aim of the analysis is to examine or investigate more complicated problems by decomposing them into simpler ones whereas we come to certain conclusions on the basis of a detailed recognition of particularities. This diploma thesis is dedicated to analytic tasks solving techniques in Business Intelligence which would describe and support the whole process of analysis, its needs and premises in real surrounding environment. During the project I cooperated with Clever Decision company and took part in the real project. This company deals with Business Intelligence solutions/applications development and this project is meant to set the method of how to treat the development of the solutions. My work consists in designing a template of BI analysis method which is a part of a complex technique. The aim of this diploma thesis is to introduce my own method of Business Intelligence solution analysis, to introduce its basic components and common work instructions for this method. I reached my aim by analyzing documents and reports provided by Clever Decision company and other methods and suggestions. The main contribution of my diploma thesis is that the method works as a draft for assistance and standardizing the process of Business Intelligence solution analysis in Clever Decision company. This draft can nevertheless work as a basis for creating a wholly new method. My work consists of three parts. The first part, a theoretical one, deals with recapitulation of basic terms and methods I worked with. The second part represents properties, components and general working instructions for this method. It moreover presents main outputs, more precisely documents that are practical attachments to the method itself. The third part introduces the method itself including presentation of outputs/document drafts designed by me.

Annotation:
High quality infant and toddler (IT) child care has repeatedly been linked to better outcomes for children. However, in the U.S., IT child care has also been plagued by poor quality. Using a mixed-methods design, the purpose of this study was to provide an indepth explanation of quality change in IT classrooms and the myriad of factors that contribute to higher quality. Framed in an ecological model that views quality as the product and interaction of process, structural, and caregiver characteristics, this study addressed the impact of a variety of variables on quality change. The sample was comprised of 86 classrooms nested within 48 centers that participated in Baby Steps, a quality improvement project administered by the Utah Office of Child Care. Quantitative data included ITERS-R scores, wages, turnover, capacity, geographic location, and parent fees collected between 2003 and 2010 as part of the Baby Steps Project. Seven center directors completed semi-structured interviews that provided an insider perspective on their perceptions of the barriers and contributors to improved quality. A mixed model analysis was used to examine quality change over time. Results indicate that classroom quality scores (as measured by the ITERS-R) did increase by the second year of participation in Baby Steps; however, subsequent years of participation did not lead to significantly higher scores. Specialized training also appears to contribute to higher quality but high turnover was associated with lower quality programs. Non-urban programs appeared to be especially receptive to the intervention. Center directors echoed these findings and spoke to the

The aim of this thesis is to reveal the potentials of &ldquoWeb&rdquo
as a system of achitectural organization. This concept developed by Georges Candilis, Alexis Josic, and Shadrach Woods can be seen as a product of the discourse arose in 1960s, which concieves the city as a continuous and dynamic structure rather than a static entity composed of individual buildings. In this sense, Web appears as a system of architectural organization that responds to this dynamism by enabling growth and change. In this thesis, Frankfurt-Rö

Revealing the potentials of Web requires examination of other concepts introduced by Candilis-Josic-Woods.

volutif and Stem) will be constructed. In order to construct this relation and to understand how Web operates as a system of architectural organization, the components and design acts of Web as well as its potentials will be analyzed in the case of Frankfurt-Rö
merberg Project. In doing so, the project will be seen as the main prototype of Web. The thesis will also put emphasis on habitat é
volutif as the main idea behind Web. It will be argued that habitat é
volutif evolved into Web with the help of stem as a connecting element.

Turner, Kristin. „Northeast Tennessee Educators’ Perception of STEM Education Implementation“. Digital Commons @ East Tennessee State University, 2013. https://dc.etsu.edu/etd/1202.
Annotation:
A quantitative nonexperimental survey study was developed to investigate Northeast Tennessee K-8 educators’ perceptions of STEM education. This study was an examination of current perceptions of STEM education. Perceived need, current implementation practices, access to STEM resources, definition of STEM, and the current condition of STEM in Northeast Tennessee were also examined. The participating school districts are located in the Northeast Region of Tennessee: Bristol City Schools, Hamblen County Schools, Johnson City Schools, Johnson County Schools, Kingsport City Schools, Sullivan County Schools, and Washington County Schools. Educational professionals including both administrators and teachers in the elementary and/or middle school setting were surveyed.
The closed and open form survey consisted of 20 research items grouped by 5 core research questions. Quantitative data were analyzed using single sample t tests. A 4 point Likert scale was used to measure responses with a 2.5 point of neutrality rating. The open-ended question was summarized and recorded for frequency.
Research indicated that Northeast Tennessee K-8 educators perceive a need for STEM education to a significant extent. However, many do not feel prepared for implementation. Lack of professional development opportunities and STEM assets were reported as areas of need. Teachers reported implementation of inquiry-based, problem solving activities in their classrooms. The majority of participants reported that the current condition of STEM education in Northeast Tennessee is not meeting the needs of 21st century learners. Challenges facing STEM instruction include: funding designated for STEM is too low, professional development for STEM teacher is insufficient, and STEM Education in K-8 is lacking or inadequate.

E-government initiatives have large potentials in developing better services for citizens and a potential to transform government structures. However e-government initiatives face a number of challenges of complexity and risk - it is not an easy matter to realize its potentials. A key research issue for the e-government field, as well as the information systems field in general, is to understand why some projects progress to success while others end in failure. The main objective in this paper is to contribute to a better understanding of the progress and the success vs. failure in e-government development based on case studies of two inter-organizational e-service projects. The analysis in the paper is made from a) an e-government systems development life cycle perspective and b) a challenge and success factors perspective. The main result in this paper is that crucial success factors of an inter-organizational e-government project include project manager skills and position in the agency organization as well as when and how systems maintenance issues are introduced in the project. Criticism is presented concerning the life cycle model used in the analysis regarding this last matter.

Duck, Kerry Douglas. „The Effects of Problem-Based Learning on Interest in Mathematics for Elementary Students across Time“. TopSCHOLAR®, 2014. http://digitalcommons.wku.edu/theses/1354.
Annotation:
Elementary school is a transition time for student interests and motivation and there is a need for teachers to provide opportunities to facilitate continued interest. One area of concern is in the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines. One pedagogical approach that may help with facilitating interest is problem-based learning (PBL; Barrows, 1996). The purpose of this study was to assess changes in students’ reported levels of individual interest in mathematics across time and to assess differences in individual interest based on amount of PBL exposure. Participants included students (n = 45) involved with Project GEMS (Gifted Education in Mathematics and Science; Roberts, 2008), which was a federally funded grant through the Jacob K. Javits Gifted and Talented Students Education Program. Interest in mathematics was measured at the beginning of the first fall semester students entered the program and at the end of each subsequent spring semester with a 17-item interest measure consisting of four sub scores: emotion, value, knowledge, and engagement. Results indicate a negative linear trend for composite and sub factors of interest across time except value. The PBL intervention did not moderate the change in interest across time. Conclusions, possible limitations, and future directions are discussed.

Controlling the availability of illicit drugs and their use is an exemplar of a wicked problem. Reducing the scale of the illicit drugs market through suppressing supply has proven extremely difficult. A recent systematic review of studies by Cunningham and colleagues who have produced a series of research papers examining the impact of precursor regulations on various methamphetamine outcomes in North America, argue this research represents the most compelling evidence to date that ‘precursor regulations, or indeed any supply control strategy, can have significant impacts on the retail market for illicit drugs’. The review of this work concludes that the question for future research is ‘not so much whether precursor regulations work, but which regulations work best and in what context’; this is the starting point for my research.
The market for methamphetamine is entrenched, broad and dynamic and represents an important criminological and public health problem in Australia. Within Australia the production of methamphetamine has been concentrated in Queensland and that state government has responded by developing a coercive regulatory framework which co-opts pharmacies into a partnership with drug law enforcement that is aimed at preventing the diversion of licit precursor chemicals to the illicit market for manufacture into methamphetamine. In 2005, the Queensland Pharmacy Guild in partnership with the Queensland Police Service developed an electronic medication recording system Project STOP, - which is a real-time web based database used by police to track and apprehend ‘pseudo runners’ - to facilitate adherence to the compulsory requirements of recording and reporting sales of pseudoephedrine placed upon them by both health regulations and the criminal law. In my thesis, I refer to the family of innovations (legislative, policy and technological interventions) underpinning the police–pharmacy partnership as Third Party Policing (TPP).Thesis (PhD Doctorate)

Annotation:
In rural primary schools in Thailand, students face a lack of resources for STEM education. A learning approach called Culturally Relevant STEM Education (CRSE) was proposed in this study to enhance rural students’ STEM education. The CRSE approach used local materials based on the local culture to develop students’ STEM knowledge and skills. This study trialled and refined the CRSE approach through collaboration between researcher and practitioner, thereby probing the potential of CRSE to advance the learning of STEM in Thailand, particularly in a rural context. It created teacher guidelines to support teachers’ use of CRSE in the classroom.
