This study addresses the question: How do the structural conditions of university organisation modulate subject position, social relations and discourse and therefore shape individual consciousness and activity? The response is informed by an empirical pedagogical problem located at the tertiary level in Japan: What makes acquirers attain higher levels of language mastery in foreign language (Spanish) settings informed by communicative language teaching? The attempted answer is framed within cultural-historical activity theory, the cultural theory of Holland et al. (2001), and Basil Bernstein’

Abstract:

This thesis describes an intelligent underwater acoustic system that allows the positions of several divers or Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROV) to be tracked in three-dimensional space and to telemeter the co-ordinates to a remote receiver at the surface. The positions are fixed using three randomly deployed seabed transponders that may be described as intelligent. The transponders fix their own relative positions and the position of the surface receiver, usually a vessel, by an exchange of coded acoustic pulses. These positions can be related to a differential GPS system at the surface if abs

This dissertation describes a novel method of providing position-location from geosynchronous communication satellites. The Global Positioning System (GPS) has become the standard for position-location and navigation in the world. It provides extremely accurate coordinates to military users and slightly less accurate coordinates to "non-authorized" users. Disadvantages of GPS are complexity and high cost. The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) has spent billions of dollars in developing and fielding the system. Maintenance and GPS satellite replenishment costs will continue to climb. A simpler,

Background Within trauma teams, effective communication is necessary to ensure safe and secure care of the patient. Deficiencies in communication are one of the most important factors leading to patient harm. Time is an essential factor for rapid and efficient disposal of trauma teams to increase patients’ survival and prevent morbidity. Trauma team training plays an important role in improving the team’s performance, while the leader of the trauma team faces the challenge of coordinating and optimizing this performance.

Recent research has documented that we tend to use the face to express some emotions, but use the body to express other emotions. To understand the contributions of the body to non-verbal emotional communication, we compared the performance of able-bodied participants who were allowed to express emotions naturally (standing) to able-bodied participants who were confined to a wheelchair. Theories of embodied emotion would predict that restraining the use of the body should change emotion production and communication confidence, especially for body-related emotions.

The research question addressed what PD behaviors, if any, were present in nurses’ workplace stories.
