This chapter explores the concept of “activist learning for sustainability” and the role of activism and related pedagogies and the relationship to education for sustainable development (ESD). The chapter will reflect on a case study of student-led activism: the initiation of a “sustainable student house” devised and developed by students to allow them to “live what they are learning” and educate
It is increasingly important to rapidly receive information on the antimicrobial susceptibility of bacteria due to the rise in antimicrobial resistance worldwide. However, traditional phenotypic methods are time-consuming. Thus, the objective of this study was to develop a rapid assay that can detect antibiotic-resistant bacterial isolates phenotypically in less than 2 h. The microplate assay used
Abstract in Undetermined n this paper we consider the population of eccentric binaries with a neutron star and a white dwarf that has been revealed in our galaxy in recent years through binary pulsar observations. We apply our statistical analysis method (Kim, Kalogera, & Lorimer 2003)and calculate the Galactic formation rate of these binaries empirically. We then compare our results with rate
We have derived Mn abundances for more than 200 stars in 19 globular clusters. In addition, Mn abundance determinations have been made for a comparable number of halo field and disk stars possessing an overlapping range of metallicities and stellar parameters. Our primary data set was comprised of high-resolution spectra previously acquired at the McDonald, Lick, and Keck Observatories. To enlarge

Human x mouse hybridoma cells were grown in dialysis tubing (DT) to obtain large quantities of human monoclonal antibodies (MAb). Hybridoma cells were grown inside the DT, which was placed in a tissue culture flask containing medium. The medium inside the DT was supplemented with different additives which may be selected depending on the intended use of the MAb. About 10-50 times higher concentrat
Digital technologies are changing social work practices in profound ways. Today, digital devices are used by social workers in their everyday work; from assessing social benefit applications digitally, writing pre-formatted investigations and using chatrooms in treatment, to holding digital meetings with colleagues and clients. Digital technology is also utilized as a management instrument. Changi
IntroductionYoung migrants are increasingly recognised as being particularly vulnerable to sexual violence. This vulnerability is largely structural, due to the different laws and policies impacting their access to rights and services. Post-structural approaches to policy argue that policies are not responses to existing problems, but rather that social issues are constructed through policy. They
This chapter addresses artistic research through the concept of co-costuming in public—a material-discursive practice between humans and more-than-human materialities with co-creational potentials. The chapter documents how co-costumed entanglements cultivate the wearers’ sociomaterial relation-spatial sensitivity towards each other as well as towards other humans and more-than-human materialities
Revelation’s Whore of Babylon and the hybrid animal upon which she rides provide a female-beastly assemblage against which is constructed the good sovereignty of the Lamb. Derrida’s thinking of animality and sovereignty indicates how the human political realm carves out its sovereign position in relation to the category “animal” and in reliance on a “reason of the strongest.” It is demonstrated th
