BACKGROUND: The condition of dyslexia is a learning disability leading to difficulty in acquiring basic skills of reading, spelling, and writing. It is a disorder with a neurological origin that does not affect the intelligence of a person. It is estimated that between 5% and 10% of the population suffering from dyslexia, but this number can also be as high as 17% because dyslexia may not be recognized and diagnosed in some individuals and because some of them may not disclose that they are diagnosed. In Malaysia, it is estimated that 4% to 8% of children attending school have dyslexia. Dyslex

Abstract:
This chapter intends to discuss the experiences of university students with dyslexia and academic learning and assessment. It intends to challenge the traditional access to and production of examinations and to separate the ability to retrieve and produce verbal visual print from academic learning and performance in order to propose a model where educational systems join the fourth revolution. The intention is to address the brain drain that communities experience when students with Dyslexia are not able to show what they really know, due to possibly archaic access to and production of academic learning and assessment. The use of technology and independent access to printed material will also be discussed. The framework of this chapter is the Kannangara model of dyslexia: from Languishing to Thriving with Dyslexia. When reading this chapter, one also needs to remember that, whilst I refer to dyslexia, this profile more often than not co-occurs with other learning challenges and is often grouped with populations of Specific Learning Difficulties or Learning Disabilities in research and national data.

Abstract:
The rapid incursion of ICT into the classroom has meant that, within a space of a few years, computers have moved from being peripheral to being an integral part of the learning environment. However, our perceptions of a technology are affected by the age at which we encounter it. This chapter draws on the findings of a number of research projects at the University of Sheffield. These findings are used to explore some of the ’generation gaps’ that arise from differing perceptions of learning technologies. The data discussed provide insights into the ICT-based generation gaps that currently exist between and within groups of students, teachers and parents. It is argued that a fundamental gap may exist between students differing in age by as little as five years. Results from a related project exploring Networked Information and Communication Literacy Skills (NICLS), are used to introduce a discussion on the nature of any skills gap that must be addressed in the light of these generation gaps.

Abstract:
Rubén Vicente and Luis A. López at the University of Oviedo in Spain reported (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 8063) the synthesis of cyclopropyl furan 2 from alkylidene 1 and styrene by way of a zinc carbene intermediate. The same substrate 1 was also converted (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 12128) to furan 3 via catalysis with tetrahydrothiophene in the presence of benzoic acid by J. Stephen Clark at the University of Glasgow. Xue-Long Hou at the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry discovered (Org. Lett. 2012, 14, 5756) that palladacycle 6 catalyzes the conversion of bicyclic alkene 4 and alkynone 5 to furan 7. A silver-mediated C–H/C–H functionalization strategy for the synthesis of furan 9 from alkyne 8 and ethyl acetoacetate was developed (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 5766) by Aiwen Lei at Wuhan University. Ning Jiao at Peking University and East China Normal University found (Org. Lett. 2012, 14, 4926) that azide 10 and aldehyde 11 could be converted to either pyrrole 12 or 13 with complete regiocontrol by judicious choice of a metal catalyst. Meanwhile, Michael A. Kerr at the University of Western Ontario developed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 11088) a multicomponent synthesis of pyrrole 16 involving the merger of nitrone 14 and the donor–acceptor cyclopropane 15. The pyrrole 16 was subsequently converted to an intermediate in the synthesis of the cholesterol-lowering drug compound Lipitor. A robust synthesis of the ynone trifluoroboronate 17 was developed (Org. Lett. 2012, 14, 5354) by James D. Kirkham and Joseph P.A. Harrity at the University of Sheffield, which thus allowed for the ready production of trifluoroboronate-substituted pyrazole 18. An alternative pyrazole synthesis via oxidative closure of unsaturated hydrazine 19 to produce 20 was reported (Org. Lett. 2012, 14, 5030) by Yu Rao at Tsinghua University. A unique fluoropyrazole construction was developed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 12059) by Junji Ichikawa at the University of Tsukuba that involved nucleophilic substitution of two of the fluorides in 21 to form pyrazole 22.

Keiji Maruoka of Kyoto University found (Organic Lett. 2010, 12, 1668) that the diazo amide 1 derived from the Oppolzer sultam condensed with the imine 2 to give the aziridine 3 with high stereocontrol. Andrei K. Yudin of the University of Toronto observed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2010, 49, 1607) that the unprotected aziridine aldehyde 4, which exists as a mixture of dimers, condensed smoothly with the Ohira reagent 5 to give the alkynyl aziridine 6. David M. Hodgson of the University of Oxford successfully (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2010, 49, 2900) deprotonated the azetidine thioamide 7 to give, after allylation, the azetidine 8. Varinder K. Aggarwal of the University of Bristol devised (Chem. Commun. 2010, 267) a Pd catalyst for the cyclocarbonylation of an alkenyl aziridine 9 to give the β-lactam 10. Iain Coldham of the University of Sheffield used (J. Org. Chem. 2010, 75, 4069) the ligand they had developed to effect enantioselective allylation of the pyrrolidine derivative 11. The corrresponding piperidine worked as well. John P. Wolfe of the University of Michigan established (Organic Lett. 2010, 12, 2322) that the Pd-mediated cyclization of 13 to 15 could be effected with high diastereocontrol. Christopher G. Frost of the University of Bath optimized (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2010, 49, 1825) the tandem Ru-mediated conjugate addition/cyclization of 16 to give 18 in high ee. Barry M. Trost of Stanford University extended (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2010, 132, 8238) their studies of trimethylenemethane cycloaddition to the ketimine 19, leading to the substituted pyrrolidine 21 in high ee. Pher G. Andersson of Uppsala University optimized (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2010, 132, 8880) an Ir catalyst for the enantioselective hydrogenation of readily prepared tetrahydropyridines such as 22. Min Shi of the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry devised (J. Org. Chem. 2010, 75, 3935) a Pd catalyst for enantioselective conjugate addition to the prochiral pyridone 24. Xiaojun Huang of Roche Palo Alto prepared (Tetrahedron Lett. 2010, 51, 1554) the monoacid 26 by enantioselective methanolysis of the anhydride.

Fuwei Li of the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics constructed (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 5992) the furan 6 by oxidizing the keto ester 4 in the presence of the enamide 5. Yuanhong Liu of the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry prepared (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 11596) the pyrrole 9 by reducing the azadiene 7 with the Negishi reagent, then adding the nitrile 8. Yefeng Tang of Tsinghua University found (Tetrahedron Lett. 2014, 55, 6455) that the Rh carbene derived from 11 could be added to an enol silyl ether 10 to give the pyrrole 12. Pazhamalai Anbarasan of the Indian Institute of Technology Madras reported (J. Org. Chem. 2014, 79, 8428) related results. Zheng Huang of the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry established (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 1390) a connection between substituted piperidines and pyridines by dehydrogenating 13 to 15, with 14 as the acceptor. Joseph P. A. Harrity of the University of Sheffield conceived (Chem. Eur. J. 2014, 20, 12889) the cascade assembly of the pyridine 18 by cycloaddition of 16 with 17 followed by Pd-catalyzed coupling. Teck-Peng Loh of Nanyang Technological University converted (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 3432) the keto ester 19 into the azirine, then eliminated it to form an aza­triene that cyclized to the pyridine 20. En route to a cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibitor, Zhengxu S. Han of Boehringer Ingelheim combined (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 4142) 21 with 22 to give an intermediate that could be oxidized to 23. Magnus Rueping of RWTH Aachen used (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 13264) an Ir photoredox catalyst in conjunction with a Pd catalyst to cyclize the enamine 24 to the indole 25. Yingming Yao and Yingsheng Zhao of Soochow University effected (Angew.

Abstract:
The text books say that there is no cave art in Britain. These will now have to be rewritten. . . . There had been a psychological barrier to the existence of cave art in Britain . . . butnever a satisfactory explanationas to why there was none. (Jon Humble, Inspector of Ancient Monuments, English Heritage, in an interview with John Pickrell for National Geographic News) In April 2003 Britain’s first unequivocal Palaeolithic parietal art was discovered in Creswell Crags, a narrow limestone gorge located on the Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire border in the English North Midlands. The announcement of its discovery was accompanied by a furore of media attention. Archaeological dogma had long maintained that no such art would be discovered in Britain, although, as Bahn (2003) has suggested, there was no good reason for such art not to exist. As Bahn highlighted, Britain has plenty of caves with evidence of Upper Palaeolithic occupation, plus examples of portable art from the period, including two figurative engravings attributed to Creswell Crags. The Magdalenian era was the last time that Europe was unified ‘in a real sense and on a grand scale’ (Paul Pettitt, quoted in The Guardian, 15 April 2004) and the conference organizers realized that to fully appreciate and understand the Creswell art, it must be considered in its wider continental context. The conference in Creswell was conceived to bring together specialists from across Europe and to place the art of Creswell in its European setting. The conference was held at the Social Centre in Creswell from 15 to 17 April 2004, and was organized by the team who had discovered the art, along with Andrew Chamberlain of the University of Sheffield and Ian Wall of the Creswell Heritage Trust. The Creswell Crags project is at the heart of regeneration in this former rural coalfield area. Indeed, Jon Humble (English Heritage 2003) has described the project in glowing terms as, ‘quite possibly the best and most successful example of an archaeology-led project for social and economic regeneration anywhere in the UK’.

Carbon capture is getting increased attention recently due to the fact that it seems to be the only answer to decrease emissions. Gas turbines exhaust have 3–5 % concentration of CO2 which is very low to be captured by an amine carbon capture plant effectively. The amine based plants are most effective at around 10 – 15% CO2 in the flue gas. In order to increase the concentration of CO2 in the exhaust of the gas turbine, part of the exhaust gas needs to be recycled back to the air inlet. On reaching the concentration of CO2 around 10% it can be fed to the amine capture plant for effective carb

Additionally, the Committee on Radioactive Waste Management (CoRWM) recently delivered a recommendation, accepted by Government, that geological disposal in a mined repository presents the “best available approach” for long term management

Abstract:
This research explores three iterations of the delivery of audio feedback in relation to formative assessments at the School of Law, University of Sheffield. The evidence base includes similar practice at Edge Hill University and collaboration on good practice between the two institutions. This paper will set out the context for the implementation of audio feedback, namely to help address the difficult issues experienced with feedback from non-engagement by the student in the whole feedback process, to a lack of utilization of formative feedback for 'feedforward' purposes.

Abstract:
Burning leaner is an effective way to reduce emissions and improve efficiency. However, this increases the instability of the combustion and hence, increases the tendency of the flame to blowout. On the other hand, the ignition delay of a jet fuel is a crucial factor of the instability feedback loop. Shorter ignition delay results in faster feedback loop, and longer ignition delay results in slower feedback loop. This study investigates the potential effect of ignition delay on the lean blowout limit of a gas turbine combustion chamber. At the Low Carbon Combustion Centre of The University of
