Academic Integrity in Vocational and Polytechnic Education (Ethics and Integrity in Educational Contexts #8)

by Brenda M. Stoesz Lisa Vogt

Academic Integrity in Vocational and Polytechnic Education addresses educative approaches to support academic integrity in hands-on and applied learning environments with a focus on practitioner experiences. Building on systems theory, the book documents multi-stakeholder perspectives of institutional leaders, department specialists, and individual champions of academic integrity. Readers will be introduced to the 4M framework, which views academic integrity as a responsibility at all levels of the institution and connects to the broader community and professional industries. Each chapter is set in an applied context and lends to the philosophy of a shared responsibility in growing the institutional culture of academic integrity. This book offers insights from the perspectives of leaders, faculty, and support staff, as authors describe challenges and solutions to upholding academic integrity in short term programming geared toward employment readiness. Although the work is about vocational and polytechnic education written by members of this community, it has a wider appeal across higher education due to shifting pedagogical methods that are becoming more applied and personalized. In an age of information ubiquity, where traditional learning activities such as rote memorization and essay writing do not sufficiently assess learning or prepare the learner for the workplace, educators will find unique insights from the vocational and polytechnic sector to supporting academic integrity in a changing academic landscape.

Acting with the World: Agency in the Anthropocene

by Andrew Pickering

In the Anthropocene our actions are coming home to roost. Global warming, species extinctions, and environmental disasters are the dark side of our mastery of nature. In Acting with the World, Andrew Pickering identifies a different pattern of being and doing that can evade this dark side, a pattern that he calls acting-with the world. In contrast to our usual practice of acting on the world, acting-with foregrounds nonhuman or more-than-human agency and aims to attune our practices to the propensities of nature. Pickering explores examples of acting-with from around the globe, including flood control on the Mississippi River, ecosystem restoration on the Colorado River, the Room for the River project and rewilding in the Netherlands, natural farming in Japan, Aboriginal fire techniques in Australia, and Amazonian shamanism. Pickering argues that acting-with intimately and gracefully plugs us into nature, undercuts the Anthropocene from below, and offers a constructive approach to addressing otherwise intractable wicked problems.

by Ruslana Remennikova

• Reveals how vibration and intention can transform DNA from the standard double helix to its 12-stranded form, unlocking your physical and spiritual potential• Explores the intimate relationship of water and DNA and how they both react to sound and consciousness• Shares ten specific frequencies that resonate with DNA as well as techniques and meditations to activate your 12-stranded DNA for emotional and physical healing, resolution of ancestral trauma, and conscious evolutionIn this vibrant guidebook, sound healer and former corporate scientist Ruslana Remennikova reveals how, through vibration and intention, you can shapeshift DNA from the standard double helix to its 12-stranded, dodecahedral form—thereby unlocking your spiritual potential and opening the way for deep healing of the past, the present, and the future of your deeper self.Examining the alchemy behind the 12 strands of our DNA, the author looks at the intimate relationship between water and DNA, showing how both respond to vibrational frequencies as well as to consciousness. She also shows how unresolved grief creates oxidative stress in the body that targets our cellular mitochondrial DNA, leading to psychological and physical illnesses. She explains how sound can transform our DNA into an evolutionary activator and healing mechanism, helping the body to detox, resolve grief and trauma, and address stress-induced imbalances at the cellular level.Sharing techniques and meditations that help you activate all 12 strands of your DNA, the author reveals the revolutionary healing powers inherent in each of us for personal healing, spiritual transformation, and the completion of our human evolution.

Active Disturbance Rejection Control: From Principles to Practice (Control Engineering)

by Gernot Herbst Rafal Madonski

This open access text offers the first comprehensive introduction to the fundamental principles and practical implementation of Active Disturbance Rejection Control (ADRC). Drawing on their years of experience in both research and industry, the authors have designed the text to be accessible to readers at any level of knowledge and experience with ADRC. Multiple entry points and paths through the text are defined so that it can be easily adapted to their specific needs. Part I covers the theoretical foundations of ADRC, giving readers the basic information in a self-contained, tutorial style. Emphasis is placed on first developing an intuition for ADRC through illustrative examples inspired by real control problems. The main concepts are then introduced and explored in a more formal and concise manner using standard control-domain-related terminology. Part II demonstrates methods for applying ADRC in practice through software-based implementation. Utilizing laboratory testbeds to mimic real control problems from process and control areas, the authors illustrate the use of software through both model-based environments - including MATLAB/Simulink - and low-level C programming language. Common issues that one can encounter when implementing controllers in the real world are also examined, and specific solutions to these problems are offered that retain the simplicity of ADRC. This book can be used as a textbook, handbook, or reference manual, and through its many entry points, can be easily picked up by students, practitioners, and scientists. Having in mind its introductory nature, the prerequisites for studying the considered subject are intentionally not very strict. Readers should have at least basic knowledge of systems and controls, as well as an understanding of core mathematical concepts of calculus, linear algebra, and differential equations.
