Abstract (sommario):
Summary: The Beaulne Museum is a regional institution located in Coaticook, Quebec. Its threefold mission includes the showcasing of textiles and costumes, local heritage, and visual arts. While favouring an historical approach, the museum’s programming is also open to modernity. A large number of exhibitions and a range of cultural activities are offered to the public with the aim of promoting cultural democracy and cultural democratization. This paper examines audiences’ response to the museum’s offerings and the impact of the socio-economic and environmental context on the relevance of its activities.Keywords: Museum education; Regional museum; Cultural democracy; Cultural democratization; Cultural mediation.Résumé : Le Musée Beaulne est une institution régionale de Coaticook, au Québec.

Abstract (sommario):
Le projet d’Institut national d’histoire de l’art (INHA) a une longue histoire, qu’il serait trop long de détailler dans le cadre de cet article. Je préfère me réjouir de la bonne nouvelle: l’INHA va enfin voir le jour.L’INHA doit s’installer rue Vivienne et rue de Richelieu, dans une partie des locaux libérés par les Départements des Imprimés et des Périodiques et par certains services de la Bibliothèque nationale de France. Le bâtiment Colbert, rue Vivienne, abritera les activités de recherche et d’enseignement au niveau du 3e cycle, ainsi que les espaces destinés à l’accueil, aux rencontres scientifiques et aux expositions, tandis que la bibliothèque et l’iconothèque documentaire seront rassemblées rue de Richelieu.La Mission interministérielle des Grands Travaux a conduit une étude de programmation. Elle a permis de prévoir, dans le détail, l’utilisation des lieux dans le bâtiment Vivienne et de tracer les grandes lignes d’une implantation de l’Institut dans le quadrilatère Richelieu, à côté des Départements spécialisés de la BnF, appelés à se redéployer: Département des Estampes et de la Photographie, Département des Manuscrits, Département des Cartes et Plans, Département des Monnaies, Médailles et Antiques, Département de la Musique, Département des Arts du spectacle.

Résumé: Le 20 mars 2012, l’Équipe de recherche et d’analyse des pratiques professionnelles (ERAPP) fut reconnue comme groupe de recherche en émergence par la Commission des études de l’Université du Québec en Abitibi-Témiscamingue (UQAT). Instaurée par deux professeurs nouvellement engagés au sein de l’institution, Anderson Araújo-Oliveira (UER en sciences de l’éducation, maintenant professeur à l’UQAM) et Isabelle Chouinard (UER en sciences du développement humain et social), l’Équipe aura comme principaux objectifs le développement de la recherche interdisciplinaire sur les pratiques professionnelles, ainsi que la formation de la relève scientifique à l’UQAT. Porteuse d’une vision élargie des pratiques professionnelles, l’Équipe regroupera des chercheurs provenant de différents départements de l’UQAT et d’autres universités québécoises et internationales. Pour mener à bien sa mission, l’ERAPP développe depuis cinq ans une programmation scientifique articulée autour de deux aspects principaux : 1) la production significative de nouvelles connaissances ainsi que leur diffusion dans la communauté scientifique et académique de même qu’auprès des acteurs sur le terrain; 2) la formation scientifique d’étudiants des cycles supérieurs en vue de développer chez ces derniers les compétences nécessaires à la réalisation de leurs travaux de recherche. Le présent article propose de mettre en évidence, en premier lieu, les objectifs et les lignes directrices qui sous‑tendent les activités de recherche menées par les chercheurs associés à l’ERAPP et, en deuxième lieu, certaines des activités développées qui permettent l'opérationnalisation de ces objectifs et lignes directrices.

Abstract (sommario):
While the vast majority of ESA’s funding for Mars exploration in the 2020s is planned to be invested in ExoMars and Mars Sample Return, there is an interest to assess the possibility of implementing a small mission to Mars in parallel with, or soon after, the completion of the MSR programme. A study was undertaken in the Concurrent Design Facility at ESA ESTEC to assess low-cost mission architectures for small satellite missions to Mars. Given strict programmatic constraints, the focus of the study was on a low-cost (<250MEuro Cost at Completion), short mission development schedule with a cost-driven spacecraft design and mission architecture. The study concluded that small, low-cost Mars missions are technically feasible for launch within the decade.

Abstract (sommario):
Depuis maintenant quelques décennies, on note une attention accrue envers le rôle que jouent les centres de la petite enfance vis-à-vis du développement lié à la communication et à l’alphabétisation des enfants âgés de 0 à 5 ans qui les fréquentent. Aussi, la conception, l’organisation et la programmation des activités d’éducation de la petite enfance sont assujetties, par les réformes dans le domaine de l’éducation de la petite enfance et motivées en gros par les changements socioculturels des deux dernières décennies du vingtième siècle!; afin que les services donnés soient contextuellement professionnels et uniformes, peu importe le lieu où ceux-ci sont dispensés (Dahlberg et collab., 2012, p. 151). On avance aussi que lorsque les éducatrices sont sensibles et réceptives aux besoins langagiers des enfants, le développement des habiletés réceptives et expressives de ces derniers s’accélère, pavant le chemin de l’apprentissage scolaire à long terme des enfants (McCartney, 1984, p. 258). Bref, les études démontrent que les fonds investis dans la petite enfance réduisent l’investissement des gouvernements dans des programmes sociaux plus coûteux. Une panoplie de documents ressources provenant du palier international inspire les critères recherchés aux paliers provincial et municipal. Les professionnels de l’Éducation de la petite enfance (EPE) doivent conséquemment posséder de solides connaissances en développement de l’enfant et, en particulier, en développement langagier du petit enfant ainsi que des compétences appropriées pour créer des relations avec les enfants et les familles. En Ontario français, un défi de taille s’ajoute à tout cela : celui de sensibiliser les familles et les parents sur les bienfaits pour que les vécus en français de l’enfant soient véritables et déterminants, sur les plans linguistique, identitaire et culturel (Duguay, 2004, p. 51). Il incombe de reconnaître la mission particulière des services francophones à la petite enfance, tout en valorisant la contribution essentielle du personnel professionnel de la petite enfance (ACELF, 2014).

Abstract (sommario):
Future missions to an ice giant planet, especially orbital missions, are technologically challenging. But with one exception, radioisotope power sources (RPSs), the technologies that would enable such missions are currently available. RPSs are not a new technology, but devices used in the past that are appropriate to an ice giant mission are no longer available without engineering development work (currently unfunded), and it is uncertain whether the new NASA unit under development will be available for flight in time to take advantage of the best transfer trajectories of the next 15 years. This paper describes technologies already in hand that enable an ice giant mission, but for them to be useful they must be maintained. If an enabling technology is lost a replacement must be developed, potentially impacting the cost and schedule of a mission. In addition to the enabling technologies, there are a number of technologies that, while not enabling, could greatly enhance the science return and science value of a mission, making the programmatic aspects of approval an easier task and the funding of those development tasks a high priority. This article is part of a discussion meeting issue ‘Future exploration of ice giant systems'.

Landowski, Eric. "L’épreuve de l’autre — Testing the other". Sign Systems Studies 34, n. 2 (31 dicembre 2006): 317–38. http://dx.doi.org/10.12697/sss.2006.34.2.03.
Abstract (sommario):
Testing the other. It is nowadays a commonplace of academic discourse on social sciences, especially when it comes to such disciplines as anthropology and semiotics, to oppose the old (and old-fashioned) methods of the “structuralists” to post-modern and post-structural epistemological attitudes. Structuralism, it is said, was based on the idea that it is possible to apprehend the meaning of cultural productions from an exterior and therefore objective standpoint, just by making explicit their immanent principles of organization. Today, on the contrary, a totally distinct approach of cultural productions would stem from the consciousness of a strict interdependence, or even of an identity in nature between subject and object at all levels of the process of knowledge, at least in the area of the humanities. However, such a crude opposition proves insufficient when one observes the effective practices of current research. The example here analysed is the account given by the American anthropologist Paul Rabinow of his first mission abroad: Reflections on Fieldwork in Morocco. The analysis, based on the use of a semiotic modelling of interaction, consists in exploring the variety of positions respectively adopted by the anthropologist and his informants according to circumstances and contexts. Four regimes are in principle distinguishable: programmation, based on regularity and predictability of the actors’ behaviour, manipulation, based on some kind of contractualization of their relationships, adjustment, based upon reciprocal sensitivity and various strategies permitting to both partners of the interaction to test one another, and a regime of consent to the unexpected or the unforeseeable. The main result of the analysis resides in the possibility of showing that at each of these styles of pragmatic interaction corresponds a specific regime at the cognitive level as well. This leads to stressing the complexity, if not heterogeneity, of the strategies of knowledge involved at various stages of anthropological research, from the collection of data to the cooperative production of new forms of understanding. Taking the risk of generalization, one might also consider the interactional device, which is here tested through the reading of P. Rabinow’s report as a metatheoretical model describing the various epistemological stances at work and at stake in the practices of research in social sciences at large.

Abstract (sommario):
The goal of finding and characterizing habitable planets in other solar systems represents one of humanity's greatest scientific challenges. NASA and ESA have initiated studies of missions that could accomplish this goal within the next ten years. What precursor knowledge do we need before we can initiate such a mission? How large should the first steps be in a program whose ultimate aim is to detect life on other planets? This talk describes different concepts for NASA's Terrestrial Planet Finder and discusses potential precursors in a program that balances scientific return, technological advance, and programmatic risk.

Abstract (sommario):
The investment needs in basic infrastructure that determine the pace of development of cities are considerably higher than the quantum of flow of funds. The key indicators of the major urban services reveal that there is a failure to achieve even moderate success in service delivery. The components of the traditional approach to financing urban services have been grants and loans from government-owned financial institutions on basis of guarantees. The urban local bodies (ULBs) in India are weak in terms of capacity to raise both resources and financial autonomy. Given the major risks involved, private sector has also largely stayed away from urban infrastructure projects, until very recently. These have resulted in huge gap between the demand and supply of urban basic services. The present government has launched several Missions to promote urban development in the country through strict adherence to reforms to strengthen financial and governance capacities of ULBs and participating in competition at state and city levels to qualify for accessing resources apart from other grants-based missions. In this context, the article discusses the investment requirements, progress of programmatic interventions for urban development in India and their financing mechanism. The article focuses on recently completed Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM) and the newly launched National Urban Mission programmes.

Abstract (sommario):
The structure of undergraduate advising at private institutions that offer degrees beyond the baccalaureate level is considered. Shared advising models are found to be suitable for highly selective, extensive doctoral institutions with sizeable full-time undergraduate populations and relatively basic programmatic structures. Similar but more pro-grammatically complex institutions with larger full-time undergraduate populations might benefit more from the decentralized satellite model. Smaller, less selective, more residential, liberal arts institutions may find the decentralized faculty-only model most appropriate.

Swialkowski, Mickaël, Annick Desandère, Laetitia Boutry e Caroline Caron. "“Science and fiction” an innovative cross-disciplinary project in secondary school regarding the work of Jules Verne and Albert de Lapparent". Annales de la Société géologique du Nord - (2e Série), Tome 28, n. 28 (1 dicembre 2021): 121–36. http://dx.doi.org/10.54563/asgn.337.
Abstract (sommario):
Les pages qui suivent rendent compte d’une expérience pédagogique menée durant les années scolaires 2019 à 2021, sous la forme d’un Enseignement Pratique en Interdisciplinarité (EPI). Le projet s’inscrit dans une réflexion sur l’accès au savoir de manière générale, et spécifiquement à la connaissance scientifique. Dans le cadre du sesquicentenaire de la Société Géologique du Nord, et en conformité avec les programmes scolaires, une équipe d’enseignants de disciplines à première vue éloignées mais pourtant si proches, a travaillé avec deux classes de 3e, en collaboration avec le Musée d’Histoire Naturelle de Lille et l’Université des Sciences de Lille. Deux textes ont été proposés à l’étude : Voyage au centre de la Terre de Jules Verne, publié en 1864, et La question du charbon de terre d’Albert De Lapparent en 1890. L’enseignement en interdisciplinarité (Sciences de la Vie et de la Terre SVT, Français, Technologie et Histoire-Géographie-Enseignement Moral et Civique EMC) avait notamment pour objectif de faire comprendre aux élèves que la connaissance scientifique ne se réduit pas aux spécialistes qui en font leur domaine de réflexion ou d’application mais, au contraire, que la diffusion des connaissances scientifiques ainsi que le débat scientifique nous concernent tous. À l’époque de J. Verne, la littérature destinée à la jeunesse se donne pour mission d’instruire autant que de divertir. L’auteur diffuse, expose des savoirs : en géologie et minéralogie, mais aussi en géographie et en histoire. Il permet au lecteur d'aller à la rencontre des connaissances, de les expérimenter sous la forme de l'aventure. Afin de rendre compte du parcours muséal des personnages verniens, les élèves ont réalisé la programmation d’une application pour tablette qui prend la forme d’un « Musée virtuel », à partir du logiciel APP INVENTOR©. Le visiteur peut découvrir le texte du romancier, agrémenté de lectures à voix haute, mais aussi de connaissances scientifiques acquises grâce à l’étude des deux textes et à des rencontres avec des spécialistes extérieurs à l’établissement. Les élèves sont ainsi devenus des passeurs de science et de littérature. Comme J. Verne, ils rapportent des savoirs et exposent ce qui n’est pas encore montré. Dans l’application sont intégrées des reconstitutions paléoenvironnementales des passages de l’œuvre (Carbonifère, Jurassique), des approches scientifiques de processus géologiques et biologiques (minéralogie, volcanisme, paléontologie, évolution des organismes vivants dont la phylogénie des Primates et donc de l’Homme). De plus, J. Verne prédit déjà la fin de l’exploitation minière, thèse reprise par A. De Lapparent quelques années plus tard en 1890 dans son écrit scientifique. Une des salles de ce musée virtuel est consacrée à l’époque carbonifère. Une réécriture de l’expédition dans la houillère y est présentée ainsi que la reconstitution de l’histoire géologique et une réflexion économico-historico-environnementale comparant l’exploitation de la ressource fossile du XIXe siècle à nos jours.

Rainville, Anne. "Green Public Procurement in Mission-Orientated Innovation Systems: Leveraging Voluntary Standards to Improve Sustainability Performance of Municipalities". Sustainability 14, n. 14 (13 luglio 2022): 8591. http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/su14148591.
Abstract (sommario):
Mission-oriented approaches such as green public procurement (GPP) are emerging as popular solutions for governments to tackle contemporary sustainability challenges. Voluntary standards are instruments that can be used in GPP to drive innovation toward sustainability goals. However, there exists a lack of understanding of how to theoretically situate and practically execute GPP and voluntary standards within missions-oriented innovation systems (MIS). To address this research gap, this paper investigates how voluntary standards can be used to help formulate and achieve missions for sustainable urban development (SUD) at the municipal level, followed by what role green public procurement can play in this process. To do so, it establishes a first theoretical synthesis of GPP and MIS. Next, focusing on the Municipality of Amsterdam, it conducts an empirical investigation of 95 SUD projects, of which 55 were public tender projects (in which the municipality is the landowner) and 40 were non-public tender projects (in which a private entity is the landowner), supplemented by stakeholder interviews. Based on this, it (1) conceptualizes six sustainability ambitions as missions and examines each for their formulation in terms of targets and associated standards (problem-solution diagnosis), and (2) it maps the various actors engaged in the process of implementing these missions through SUD projects, defining their positions and interrelations within the MIS at the municipal level (structural analysis). Conclusions and reflections are made regarding the relationship between changing standards and regulations over time, the potential for GPP to increase progress toward missions via use of voluntary standards in public tenders. Until programmatic approaches to measuring progress toward missions are fully implemented, the presence of voluntary standards is suggested as a potential metric.

Abstract (sommario):
The author compares the original story of Cinderella with the modern fairy tale created by the news media in covering the Apollo Program. This comparison builds the basis for the design of Cinderella Lunar Mission, a pseudo-lunar mission consisting, variously, of an installation, fake news reports, a lunar mission network game and real-world action 〈 www.cinderellalunarmission.com 〉. Inspired by Cinderella's glass slipper, the exclusive sign of her identity, Cinderella Lunar Mission examines the idea of shifting identity and ways of fabricating new fairy tales using such digital technologies as programmatic text, network games and barcode identification.

Abstract (sommario):
E&P operators with ageing assets are making informed investment decisions around financial commitments for later-life asset management through to full decommissioning and abandonment in a safe, environmentally sound and cost-effective way. Factors affecting decommissioning decisions include: Oil price, New technology, Regulatory requirements, Supply chain and contracting options. Operators are optimising the execution of decommissioning projects and consistently looking to improve efficiencies through decommissioning strategies, technologies and approaches. At the same time, a new focus on programmatic approaches, and the use of data are becoming more prevalent to eliminate waste and create cost saving opportunities. This paper provides: an overview on the decisions that need to be taken when commencing decommissioning activities; a review of the various models and strategies for decommissioning and abandonment; discussion on how traditional project approaches may not be appropriate in light of environmental and sustainability targets; and consideration of contracting options. The paper will appeal to E&P operators, major contractors and service providers.

Abstract (sommario):
There may be no better way to get to the heart of Jesus' mission than to study Jesus' inaugural address in his hometown Nazareth synagogue. There Jesus proclaimed that he was the anointed one of God and introduced a jubilee era that is programmatic in Luke's Gospel for his holistic mission of grace. But for some listeners with high messianic expectations, it was only half the mission of the Messiah; they also awaited the omitted day of vengeance. Jesus' good news to the poor did not meet exclusive expectations, but was inclusive of Gentiles and outcasts. Jesus' jubilee mission was holistic in four aspects: It was proclaimed and enacted, spiritual and physical, for Jew and Gentile, present and eschatological.

Abstract (sommario):
Traditionally, chaplains have provided care for staff through consultation, informal conversation, grief work, and more formal counsel and ritual. This article discusses four programmatic approaches to staff care created in response to particular assessed needs: “Finding Soul” addresses staff care needs to find meaning and joy in their work and to contribute to the “soul” of the institution. “Existential Expedition” helps staff both deal with their accumulated grief and provide better direct care around existential issues being faced by their patients. “After Book” provides a way for staff to have closure with parents/families and to provide holistic care to families after discharge from the system. “The Labyrinth Program” provides staff with an opportunity to de-stress and to attend to their emotional and spiritual well-being. Focused upon staff care, these programs also secondarily benefit both patients/families and the vision and mission of the institution.

Abstract (sommario):
AbstractIntroduction:Humanitarian agencies in North Korea operate within a complex sociopolitical environment historically characterized by a baseline of mistrust. As a result of operating within such a heated environment, health sector collaborations between such agencies and the North Korean government have followed unpredictable courses.Problem:The factors that have contributed to successful programmatic collaborations, as perceived by United States non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and North Korean officials were investigated.Methods:A qualitative, multi-case, comparative, research design using semistructured interviews was used. Expert North Korean informants were interviewed to generate a list of factors contributing to programmatic success, defined as fulfilling mutually established objectives through collaboration. The North Korean informants were asked to identify US NGOs that fulfill these criteria (“mission-compatible NGOs”). Representatives from all of the missioncompatible NGOs were interviewed. All informants provided their perspectives on the factors that contributed to successful programmatic collaborations. The interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed for thematic content.Results:North Korean informants identified six mission-compatible US NGOs. The North Korean and US NGO informants provided a number of factors that contributed to successful programs.These factors were grouped into the following themes: (1) responsiveness to North Korean requests; (2) resident status; (3) program monitoring; (4) sincerity (apolitical objectives); (5) information gathering; and (6) interagency collaboration.Conclusions:Some US NGOs have devised innovative measures to work within a unique set of parameters in North Korea. Both US NGOs and North Korean authorities have made significant concessions to maintain their programmatic partnerships. In this manner, seasoned collaborators have employed creative strategies and a form of health diplomacy to facilitate programmatic success in North Korea by building trust within a complex sociopolitical space.

Abstract (sommario):
This paper analyzes science and technology policy in Latino America. Making use of panel data methods, we test for successful science and technology policy, and supporting innovation practices in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Mexico. There are three paradigms that explain science and technology policy: the market failure paradigm, the mission paradigm, and the cooperative technology paradigm. The market failure paradigm assumes that market mechanisms will lead to optimal rates of science production and technical change. The mission technology paradigm assumes that governments may play an important role in the programmatic mission of agencies. The cooperative technology policy paradigm assumes that markets are not always the most efficient route to innovation. The results suggest that there is room for government involvement when defining a science and technology policy that aims to support the development of innovative capabilities. We conclude that mission and/ or the cooperative technology paradigms are adequate for defining a successful science and technology policy in Latino America.

Background: This report documents the outcomes of cardiac surgical mission trips organized by the International Children's Heart Foundation (ICHF), a nongovernmental organization that provides congenital heart surgery services to the developing world, and discusses factors associated with a reduction of mortality and morbidity in this setting. Methods: A retrospective review of a prospectively maintained database was conducted to identify any patient who underwent surgical intervention during the course of an ICHF mission trip. Results: From 2008 to 2016, a total of 223 trips were made to 23 countries and 3,783 operations were performed. Over 40 unique types of operations were performed with repairs of atrial septal defects (ASDs; n = 479), ventricular septal defects (VSDs; n = 760), teratology of Fallot (n = 473), and ligation of patient ductus arteriosus (PDA; n = 242), comprising the majority of cases. Several organizational policy changes were instituted in 2015. These include the requirement of the host site to have a fully functional blood bank and access to medical subspecialties, the ICHF providing 24-hour intensivist coverage, and not performing surgery on patients weighing less than 10 kg until local capacity has been developed. The overall mortality rate fell to 2.3% from 8.1% after the implementation of these policies. The mortality for ASD repair, VSD repair, PDA ligation, and the repair of tetralogy of Fallot fell from 1.2% to 0%, 1.8% to 0%, 0% to 0%, and 5.6% to 5.1%, respectively. The reoperation rate fell from 11% to 3% and reoperation for a bleeding indication fell from 6% to 2%. Conclusions: Programmatic-level changes have been associated with reduced rates of mortality and morbidity in humanitarian congenital cardiac surgery.

Abstract (sommario):
AbstractReusable launch vehicles (RLV) currently envisioned incorporate a wide variety of propulsion types. Various propulsion devices have been designed, or are being designed. The Integral-Rocket-Ramjet (IRR) propulsion mainly applies to a tactical missile boost system and few have mentioned this system in RLV design. According to the technological ability of Taiwan and a feasibility study, it shows that the present reusable launch system can exploit the potential benefit of IRR propulsion for the RLV system. A conceptual study of an unmanned two-stage-to-orbit (TSTO) launch vehicle is designed in this paper. The first stage of the vehicle is reusable with IRR engines. The second stage is expendable and rocket powered. The assumed mission is designed to insert a 100kg payload into a low earth circular orbit at various inclination angles. The calculations are made for the case where the TSTO system is used in Taiwan. The fundamentals of launch vehicle design are examined using simplified two-stage performance equations. Launch vehicle design is optimized when the performance and programmatic drivers are balanced. There is an acceptable set of launch and landing sites on islands off the coast of Taiwan.

Abstract (sommario):
Since its birth twenty-two years ago, the Department of Educational Administration at Texas A&M University has achieved considerable recognition for the strength and diversity of its various program offerings. That strength, developed originally from the diverse attainments of its separate faculty members, has built in recent years upon common programmatic efforts that enable separate faculty strengths to be used in a complementary manner for support of the departmental mission.

Abstract (sommario):
The Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve University (CCLCM) was created in 2004 as a 5-year undergraduate medical education program with a mission to produce future physician-investigators. CCLCM’s assessment system aligns with the principles of programmatic assessment. The curriculum is organized around nine competencies, where each competency has milestones that students use to self-assess their progress and performance. Throughout the program, students receive low-stakes feedback from a myriad of assessors across courses and contexts. With support of advisors, students construct portfolios to document their progress and performance. A separate promotion committee makes high-stakes promotion decisions after reviewing students’ portfolios. This case study describes a systematic approach to provide both student and faculty professional development essential for programmatic assessment. Facilitators, barriers, lessons learned, and future directions are discussed.

Abstract (sommario):
The Jet Propulsion Laboratory Innovation Foundry has established a new approach for exploring, developing, and evaluating early concepts with a group called the Architecture Team. The Architecture Team combines innovative collaborative methods and facilitated sessions with subject matter experts and analysis tools to help mature mission concepts. Science, implementation, and programmatic elements are all considered during an A-Team study. In these studies, Concept Maturity Levels are used to group methods. These levels include idea generation and capture (Concept Maturity Level 1), initial feasibility assessment (Concept Maturity Level 2), and trade space exploration (Concept Maturity Level 3). Methods used for exploring the science objectives, feasibility, and scope will be described including the use of a new technique for understanding the most compelling science, called a Science Return Diagram. In the process of developing the Science Return Diagram, gradients in the science trade space are uncovered along with their implications for implementation and mission architecture. Special attention is paid toward developing complete investigations, establishing a series of logical claims that lead to the natural selection of a measurement approach. Over 20 science-focused A-Team studies have used these techniques to help science teams refine their mission objectives, make implementation decisions, and reveal the mission concept’s most compelling science. This article will describe the A-Team process for exploring the mission concept’s science trade space and the Science Return Diagram technique.

Abstract (sommario):
Focus groups and surveys were used to align volunteers' work with the mission and organizational objectives of the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum (MLA) at the University of Minnesota. In focus groups, a cross-section of volunteers discussed several issues, including how they could more directly contribute to the mission and organizational objectives of the institution. Staff were surveyed on their perceptions of the volunteer workforce, including their current use of volunteers. Focus groups and surveys proved to be valuable tools to approach programmatic changes in volunteer involvement at the MLA by providing a platform to discuss the areas where change is needed, as well as what kind of change should occur. Focus groups can be a key tool in involving volunteers, by allowing them to provide input on changes that directly affect them, in addition to furthering the understanding of volunteer needs and motivations.

Abstract (sommario):
HIV stigma affects many persons living with HIV in the United States, and reducing stigma is central to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) mission to promote health and prevent HIV transmission. To this end, CDC funds and implements programmatic activities, research, communication campaigns, and monitoring through data collection and public health surveillance. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention-funded programs have developed promising interventions and educational materials for reducing HIV stigma. Research conducted by CDC staff and their collaborators have made important contributions to the scientific literature on stigma, which have informed current CDC programmatic efforts, including public education activities and social marketing campaigns. By monitoring HIV stigma in multiple populations, CDC can evaluate the population-level effectiveness of stigma-reduction efforts and identify key populations in need of support and intervention. This article describes these and other recent CDC efforts to address HIV stigma, and discusses new strategies with the potential to further reduce stigma.

Abstract (sommario):
Traditionally, hospitals have denied the true intricacy of their organization by forcing all reporting relationships into a single structure. To address this complexity, Sunnybrook has developed three independent, yet interrelated, organization dimensions. Three structures—the traditional, the clinical unit and the programmatic dimension —provide a better link of accountability by holding departments responsible for the efficiency of their operations, holding physicians accountable for the resource implication of volume and case mix, and ensuring that the activities of the hospital's departments and clinical units are in line with the hospital's overall mission and programs.

Abstract (sommario):
Nurse practitioner students may have limited opportunities to care for marginalized, vulnerable persons during their programs of study. Faculty members who coordinate La Salle University's nurse practitioner tracks reflected on this challenge, the university's mission, and programmatic student learning outcomes. They modified curricular content, consistent with national standards, and also placed students in sites that promoted such access. Students recorded reflections in journals to describe their insights. Faculty established relationships with facilities open to nurse practitioner students; placements were sustained, thus providing opportunities for student learning to provide primary care for vulnerable persons.

Abstract (sommario):
Introduction: In an age of increasingly face-to-face, blended, and online Health Professions Education, students have more choices of institutions at which to study their degree. For an applicant, oftentimes, the first step is to learn more about a program through its website. Websites allow programs to convey their unique voice and to share their mission and values with others such as applicants, researchers, and academics. Additionally, as the number of health professions education (HPE) programs rapidly grows, websites can share the priorities of these programs. Methods: In this study, we conducted a website review of 158 HPE websites to explore their geographical distributions, missions, educational concentrations, and various programmatic components. Results: We compiled this information and synthesized pertinent aspects, such as program similarities and differences, or highlighted the omission of critical data. Conclusions: Given that websites are often the first point of contact for prospective applicants, curious collaborators, and potential faculty, the digital image of HPE programs matters. We believe our findings demonstrate opportunities for growth within institutions and assist the field in identifying the priorities of HPE programs. As programs begin to shape their websites with more intentionality, they can reflect their relative divergence/convergence compared to other programs as they see fit and, therefore, attract individuals to best match this identity. Periodic reviews of the breadth of programs, such as those undergone here, are necessary to capture diversifying goals, and serves to help advance the field of HPE as a whole.

Abstract (sommario):
This article uses the history of the National Tax Association (NTA), the leading twentieth‐century organization of tax professionals, to strengthen our empirical understanding of the disciplinary encounter between law and the social sciences. Building on existing sociolegal scholarship, this article explores how the NTA embodied tax law's ambivalent historical interaction with public economics. Since its founding in 1907, the NTA has changed dramatically from an eclectic and catholic organization of tax professionals with a high public profile to an insular, scholarly association of mainly academic public finance economists. Using a mix of quantitative and qualitative historical evidence, we contend that the transformation in the NTA's mission and output can be explained by the increasing professionalization and specialization of tax knowledge, and by the dominant role that public economics has played in shaping that knowledge. This increasing specialization allowed the NTA to secure its position as a bastion of scholarly tax research. But that achievement came at a cost to the organization's broader civic mission. This article is thus a historical account of how two competing professional disciplines—tax law and public economics—have interacted within a particular organizational field, namely the research and analysis of tax law and policy.

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract Scientific research requires a substantial investment of time, effort, and money by researchers and funders. The funding that would be needed for all meritorious proposals far exceeds available resources. Major funding organizations use a multistep process for allocating research dollars that follows and extends beyond scientific peer review with considerations including mission priority, budget, and potential duplication of past or ongoing research activities. At the level of programmatic review, the process tends to be less proscribed than scientific review, but considerations relate to and are akin to basic value-driven economic principles. We propose a framework that encompasses the elements of programmatic review and provide examples of how the economic principles of opportunity costs, diminishing marginal productivity, sunk costs, economic optimization, return on investment, and option value apply to both research planning and funding decisions. Examples use cancer control population science research, as the nature of observational and interventional research involves large population studies (large sample size, recruitment, and often long-duration follow-up costs) which demand a high level of resource utilization; the same principles can be applied throughout medical and population health research. Awareness of the aspects of programmatic review and context to focus discussion regarding funding decisions may help guide research planning, decision-making, and increase transparency of the overall review process.

Abstract (sommario):
This study stems from the moral decline that occurs in the younger generation. Many cases of juvenile delinquency are carried out by learners such as bullying, drugs, fighting between students and so on. The implementation of the curriculum in educational institutions needs to be emphasized on character assistance, so that learners are expected to have good character. The focus of this research is how the vision, mission, and objectives of the institution in shaping the character of learners. How to construct the character-based learning process in shaping the character of learners. How to internalize character values in shaping the character of learners.The research method used is qualitative research with data collection techniques using interviews, observations, and documentation. The conclusion of this research is thatthe vision, mission, and objectives of the institution develop in programmatic activities, construct the institution's curriculum with scientific and paikem approaches, internalize character values in teaching and learning activities also intra- and extra-curricular activities.

Abstract (sommario):
Audits are the primary means of monitoring that public funds are appropriately spent by governmental entities. Currently, independent auditors (rather than governmental auditors) are the primary suppliers of governmental audit services, despite the fact that many of them view governmental audits as “secondary” (AICPA 1987). Furthermore, nongovernmental auditors are believed to be less “independent” and more prone to lose sight of the programmatic demand to safeguard the public trust (Power 1997) than governmental auditors. To better understand the supply of governmental audit services, this study investigates independent audit firm partner opinions of governmental audits and their motivation to pursue these engagements. Multiple regression results of our data reveal that partners are more likely to pursue governmental audits if they believe that desirable intrinsic and extrinsic rewards are attainable through performing these audits. Furthermore, environmental risk factors—an active political climate and authoritative changes—reduce partner motivation to pursue governmental audits. It is suggested that environmental risk factors disrupt the comfortable principal/agent relationship of the auditor and auditee because the relationships have become decoupled (abstracted) from the audit's programmatic mission.

Abstract (sommario):
The received wisdom is that there is no known effective treatment for psychopathic disorders. Although outcome studies have not identified an effective programmatic treatment for psychopathic disorders, such studies tend to leave the question open. If behavioral science has not established that psychopathic disorders respond to a particular programmatic approach, neither are psychopathic disorders convincingly proven to be absolutely resistant to treatment. If no treatment is known to be effective in psychopathic disorders, then any treatment seems to squander resources. What is often missing from the discussion is effective therapeutic measures to treat other behaviors that often co-occur, if they do not represent a domain of pathology of psychopathic disorders, such as impulsive aggression. After a brief summary of results of programmatic treatment of psychopathic offenders, this review focuses on the pharmacotherapy of impulsive aggression in psychopathic disorders. If the impulsive aggression that occurs with psychopathic disorders can be better controlled, treatment can have substantial benefits and would be most appropriate.

Abstract (sommario):
This article analyses the role of the spiritual path of theosis in the mission of the Eastern Orthodox church. It evaluates the main directions in which the church could have a fundamental role in the world, such as peace, human dignity or the ecological crises, and does so through the lens of the deification process. The spiritual exercise of deification contributes to a fundamental change in the way that we act, think, and understand reality and this plays an essential part in missionary work as understood by the Eastern Orthodox church. Because of this approach, the theological term martyria/witness is considered more suitable than the term mission, in order to describe the process of transformation of the human persons and, through those who engage on the path of deification, the transformation of the entire creation. The article presents two different perspectives: one offered by two official, programmatic documents of the church (“The Mission of the Orthodox Church in Today’s World” and “For the Life of the World. Social Ethos Document of the Ecumenical Patriarchate”), and addressed to communities, and another one represented by the writings from the Philokalia, which are apparently dedicated to individuals and their personal spiritual journey. In the view presented here, the two perspectives are not different, but in fact complementary.

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract The Government of India has adopted decentralization/devolution as a vehicle for promoting greater equity and supporting people-centred, responsive health systems. This article reports on our year-long intervention project in Karnataka, South India, and articulates insights of both practical and theoretical significance. It explores the intersection of the political goal of enhanced local level autonomy and the programmatic goal of more responsive health service delivery. Focusing on the Village Health, Sanitation and Nutrition Committees (VHSNCs) set up under the National (Rural) Health Mission (NHM), the project set out to explore the extent to which political and programmatic decentralization are functional at the village level; the consonance between the design and objectives of decentralization under NHM; and whether sustained supportive capacity building can create the necessary conditions for more genuine decentralization and effective collaboration between village-level functionaries. Our methodology uses exploratory research with Panchayati Raj Institution (PRI) members and functionaries of the Health Department, followed by a year-long capacity building programme aimed at strengthening co-ordination and synergy between functionaries responsible for political and programmatic decentralization. We find that health sector decentralization at the village level in Karnataka is at risk due to lack of convergence between political and programmatic arms of government. This is compounded by problems inherent in the design of the decentralization mechanism at the district level and below. Sustained capacity building of the VHSNC can contribute to more effective decentralization, as part of a larger package of interventions that (1) provides for financial and other resources from the district (or higher) level to political and programme functionaries at the periphery; (2) helps the functionaries to develop a shared understanding of the salience of the VHSNC in addressing the health needs of their community; and (3) supports them to collaborate effectively to achieve clearly articulated outcomes.

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract Prevention is a cornerstone of the guiding mission of the University of Virginia Comprehensive Cancer Center, which is “to reduce the burden of cancer for the patients of today, through skilled, integrated, and compassionate care and to eliminate the threat of cancer for the patients of tomorrow, through research and education in an environment that promotes diversity, equity, and inclusion.” We find it useful to conceptualize different opportunities for cancer prevention using NCI's Health Behaviors Research Branch's multilevel translational framework. The latter considers three intersecting continuums: cancer control—from prevention through survivorship; translation—from basic sciences to dissemination and implementation; and level of influence or impact—from genetics to policy. An advantage of this heuristic is that “prevention” is inherently defined as an inter-programmatic concept cutting across basic, clinical, and population science research rather than solely as a programmatic domain of Population Sciences. Through the UVA community outreach and engagement, we apply this multilevel framework to mitigate the social determinants of cancer risk and outcomes that drive cancer inequities in our catchment area. Below, we provide examples of our prevention research and translation along the model continuums and focus on equity.

PLOS ONE 15, n. 11 (9 novembre 2020): e0242112. http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0242112.
Abstract (sommario):
Background In China, an indigenously developed electronic medication monitor (EMM) was used. EMM recorded each time the device was opened (no real time data), offering an indirect measure of tuberculosis treatment adherence. Previous study in China showed that the EMM uptake was satisfactory, missing adherence data were common in the information management system (25%) and shift to directly observed therapy (DOT) based on poor adherence documented by EMMs were seldom. Objectives Among people with tuberculosis notified in 30 counties (July-December 2018) where EMM supported self-administered therapy (SAT) was suggested to all eligible (no communication impairment, ambulatory), we assessed the relative differences in unfavourable outcomes and deaths among those started on EMM at baseline (within first month of diagnosis) when compared to SAT alone. Methods This was a cohort study using secondary data. We employed an intention to treat analysis, and used modified Poisson regression with robust variance estimates to assess the association. Results Of 1810 eligible people, 1047 used EMM at baseline and of them, 216 (20.1%) stopped using EMM midway. Of 763 people who did not use EMM at baseline, 267 (35.0%) started using EMM later during the treatment. Among those who started using EMM at baseline, 6.3% [95% CI: 4.9, 8.0] had unfavourable outcomes compared to 6.7% [95% CI: 5.1, 8.8] among those who did not (p = 0.746). Lesser deaths were observed in people who started EMM at baseline when compared to those who did not: 2.5% [95% CI: 1.7, 3.7] versus 3.5% [95% CI: 2.4, 5.2], p = 0.191. The lack of association remained after adjusting for potential confounders (occupation, TB classification and TB category). Conclusion Under programmatic settings, we did not find significant differences in the outcomes. Optimization of EMMs by shifting to DOT when indicated, addressing the issue of missing data and ensuring continuous use is required.

Abstract (sommario):
The management of the SEACOOS program and its evolution over a five-year period are reviewed. The topics included pertain to the mechanisms used to create a consortium, define its mission, develop and manage its annual budget and tasking cycle; and the history of its focus over a five-year period. The management of SEACOOS was complex and required significant efforts to develop new approaches and collaborative mechanisms. Changes in management were made as weaknesses were identified and to enable a more unified approach to the evaluation, operations, data management and outreach efforts. A number of programmatic lessons learned are summarized that may be of value for future development of regional coastal ocean observing systems.

Abstract This case study of Scripture's intertextuality follows the route of LXX Hab 1:5 through the Acts of the Apostles, from Paul's citation of it in climaxing his inaugural (and programmatic) sermon (Acts 13:41), to its intra-/intertextual echo in Acts 15:3. Its function in Acts 13:41 underscores the redemptive importance of Paul's "report" of God's "work" among the Gentiles: to dispute the prophet's "report" (ἐκδιηγέομαι) is to reject God's bid to save God's people. When Paul's travel "report" (ἐκδιηγέομαι, 15:3) of his Gentile mission is again disputed by Jewish believers in Antioch (15:1) and Jerusalem (15:5), their eternal life is threatened according to biblical prophecy.

On this basis she describes the mission and message of the Museum, with a special focus on the interpretation given to the Warsaw Uprising by the authors of the museum’s concept. She also presents how the contents to which they give preference are “translated” into the museum’s visual language as well as the architectural-visual plan of its permanent exhibition.

Abstract (sommario):
This paper opens with an historical overview of efforts to develop micro-, mini-, and organic aerial vehicles (MAVs and OAVs) in the 1990’s. Although conceived during WWII, coleopters would not see serial production for 60 years. The paper continues with programmatic aspects of hovering coleopter development of the 1990’s and describes the technical motivations behind in-flight conversion from hover-mode to missile-mode flight and the record-setting XQ-138 family of convertible coleopters. As the first commercially successful family of such aircraft, the XQ-138 was taken from initial concept through configuration design, detailed design, patenting, prototyping, proof-of-concept, production, flight testing, qualification, and eventually high rate production, all with private funding. The paper lists basic engineering drivers, covers fundamental sizing methods, presents weight fraction data, and describes flight test procedures, locations, conditions, and results. High-speed flight test data show the stock aircraft achieving speeds in excess of 164 mph (263 kph) with endurances in excess of an hour at that speed with a special dash-optimized version reaching 288 mph (463 kph) for a few minutes. Videos from flight testing and live-fire exercises are shown at Redstone Arsenal, Eglin Air Force Base, and Fort Benning test ranges under extreme conditions. The paper concludes with an assessment of civil and military variants for a variety of military missions and commercial uses.

Quast-Neulinger, Michaela. "Saving Nation, Faith and Family. Yoram Hazony’s National Conservativism and Its Theo-Political Mission". Religions 12, n. 12 (10 dicembre 2021): 1091. http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/rel12121091.
Abstract (sommario):
Particularly pushed by the Edmund Burke Foundation and its president Yoram Hazony, the political movement of National Conservativism is largely based on specific concepts of nation, faith and family. Driven by the mission to overcome the violence of liberalism, identified with imperialism, national conservatives shape potent international and interreligious alliances for a religiously based system of independent national states. The article gives an outline of the main programmatic pillars of National Conservativism at the example of Yoram Hazony’s The Virtue of Nationalism, one of the current ideological key works of the movement. It will show how its political framework is based on a binary frame of liberalism (identified with imperialism) versus nationalism, the latter supported as the way forward towards protecting freedom, faith and family. The analytic part will focus on the use of religious motifs and the construction of a specific kind of Judaeo-Christianism as a means of exclusivist theo-political nationalism. It will be shown that Hazony’s nationalism is no way to overcome violence, but a political theory close to theo-political authoritarianism, based on abridged readings of Scripture, history and philosophy. It severely endangers the foundations of democracies, especially with regard to minority and women’s rights, and delegitimizes liberal democracy and religious traditions positively contributing to it.
