Abstract:
No regulatory document on urban planning contains a definition of the term "environmental comfort". Comfortable, convenient, and healthy living conditions for the population are created through the improvement of territories. The activity of improving territories includes a set of measures for engineering improvements (such as infrastructure development and artificial lighting); social and domestic improvement (enhancement of the social and domestic service system for the population); external improvement (greening, organization of transport and pedestrian movement, equipping the territory wit

Focusing on teacher learning, this study follows fifteen teachers in the crux of comprehensive school reform. These "regular" classroom teachers are the ubiquitous players of this theatre of school reform. "Regular" teacher is defined as a typical classroom teacher who is not actively involved in the district's school reform project or one who hasn't taken an active leadership role. The teachers in this study work in the challenging environment of a poor, diverse urban school district that was in its third year of a comprehensive school reform program, the Accelerated Schools Project.

Abstract:
Evaluation of quality of surgical care begins with the Donabedian triad focusing on structure, process, and outcomes. Outcomes, which are inherently patient-centered, are most easily and commonly measured, and are indeed fundamental to evaluating the quality of surgical care. Specifically, post-operative adverse events (AEs) remain the most frequently measured and reported outcomes, as they represent harm to the patient; and thus, are often used as a means for comparing institutional, as well as, individual surgeon performance. The importance of rigorous recording of clearly defined AEs, altho
