W-Band FMCW MIMO Radar Demonstrator System for 3D Imaging
One of the most dangerous situations when flying a helicopter is landing over dry sand or powder snow. The rotors swirl particles creating a dense cloud. With optical methods navigating through this cloud is impossible but for millimetre waves it becomes almost transparent. As a consequence millimetre waves are an outstanding choice for the development of imaging systems that can be used as a landing aid. The aim of this work is the 3D imaging of static scenes with a large field of view, good resolution and high dynamics. In this thesis a demonstrator system is presented, which is based on the MIMO principle and works with FMCW radar modules in the millimetre wavelength range. The set-up of the demonstrator system is explained and the hardware components are described. An algorithm for image reconstruction is presented as well as a calibration routine. An optimized antenne aperture is determined that enables unambiguous imaging of the half-space in front of the aperture with good resolution and low side lobes. Various measurements illustrate three-dimensional imaging capabilities and show long-range operation. In addition, the data acquisition rate is determined.
Teaching Languages to Students with Specific Learning Differences
This book is intended to help language teachers to work effectively and successfully with students who have specific learning differences (SpLD) such as dyslexia. The book takes an inclusive and practical approach to language teaching and encourages teachers to consider the effects that an SpLD could have on a language learner. It suggests strategies that can be implemented to enable learners to succeed both in the classroom and in formal assessment. The book places issues of language teaching for learners with an SpLD in a broad educational context and, in addition to practical advice on methodologies and classroom management, also discusses discourses of the field, the identification of SpLDs and facilitating progression.
"Years Don't Wait for Them"
"The Covid-19 pandemic disrupted the education of an estimated 90 percent of the world's school-aged children. [This report] is based on over 470 interviews with students, parents, and teachers in 60 countries between April 2020 and April 2021. It documents how Covid-related school closures did not affect all children equally, as governments failed to provide all children with the opportunity, tools, or access needed to keep learning during the pandemic. Students from groups already facing discrimination and exclusion from education even before the pandemic were disproportionately adversely affected. Governments' long-term failures to remedy discrimination and inequalities in their education...
The Theory of Reasoned Action
The Theory of reasoned action explores the theory and emphirical reserach in to the factors which influence whether people engage in high-risk practices , with specific reference to AIDS education.
The Innovative University
The Innovative University illustrates how higher education can respond to the forces of disruptive innovation , and offers a nuanced and hopeful analysis of where the traditional university and its traditions have come from and how it needs to change for the future. Through an examination of Harvard and BYU-Idaho as well as other stories of innovation in higher education, Clayton Christensen and Henry Eyring decipher how universities can find innovative, less costly ways of performing their uniquely valuable functions. Offers new ways forward to deal with curriculum, faculty issues, enrollment, retention, graduation rates, campus facility usage, and a host of other urgent issues in higher education Discusses a strategic model to ensure economic vitality at the traditional university Contains novel insights into the kind of change that is necessary to move institutions of higher education forward in innovative ways This book uncovers how the traditional university survives by breaking with tradition, but thrives by building on what it's done best.
Poultry Meat Processing and Quality
Poultry products are universally popular and in recent years the consumption of poultry meat has risen dramatically. To ensure the continued growth and competitiveness of this industry, it is essential that poultry meat quality and safety are maintained during production and processing. This important collection provides an authoritative review of the key issues affecting poultry meat quality in production and processing.The book begins by establishing consumer requirements for meat quality, before examining the influence of breeding and husbandry, and techniques for stunning and slaughter of poultry. Chapters 5 and 6 look at primary and secondary processing and Chapters 7, 8 and 9 discuss p...
Advanced Basic Meta-analysis
In response to the growing emphasis on precision in the summarization and integration of research literature, Advanced BASIC Meta-Analysis presents an overview of strategies, techniques, and procedures used in meta-analysis. The book and software provide an integrated and comprehensive combination of meta-analytic tools for the statistical integration of independent study results. Advanced BASIC Meta-Analysis has three distinct goals: * to provide a clear and user-friendly introduction to the procedures and rules of effective meta-analytic integration; * to present the implicit assumptions and strategies that guide successful meta-analytic integrations; and * to develop a meta-analytic datab...
Applying the Science of Learning
This text explores the scientific relationship between learning, instruction, and assessment with a concise and bold approach. This text explores the science of learning, including the essentials of evaluating instruction, the research findings regarding the science of learning, and the possible prescriptions of that research. Written for both preservice and inservice educators who wish to better understand how and why students learn.
Development and the Next Generation
"The theme of The World Development Report 2007 is youth - young people between the ages of 12 to 24. As this population group seeks identity and independence, they make decisions that affect not only their own well-being, but that of others, and they do this in a rapidly changing demographic and socio-economic environment. Supporting young people's transition to adulthood poses important opportunities and risky challenges for development policy. Are education systems preparing young people to cope with the demands of changing economies? What kind of support do they get as they enter the labor market? Can they move freely to where the jobs are? What can be done to help them avoid serious consequences of risky behavior, such as death from HIV-AIDS and drug abuse? Can their creative energy be directed productively to support development thinking? The report will focus on crucial capabilities and transitions in a young person's life: learning for life and work, staying healthy, working, forming families, and exercising citizenship. For each, there are opportunities and risks; for all, policies and institutions matter."
