Abstract:

The Georgetown Consortium Project derived from Georgetown University's Office of International Programs along with several partner institutions. The large-scale and multi-year study was developed to understand components about U.S. student learning abroad. Of the three broad conclusions, the study revealed significant relationships between independent variables representing learner characteristics and program features and the intercultural and target language learning of students abroad. This article presents an analysis that concentrates on this conclusion. The relationships between student l

This article presents the Pilgrimage Model as a template for educators wishing to lead students on site-specific studies of engaged learning. During the 2015–2016 academic year, a group of Georgetown University students, faculty, and staff pursued the Pilgrimage Project, a year-long pedagogical experiment in interdisciplinary education and speculative design. Students researched Georgetown’s historic Old North building from a variety of disciplinary angles and presented the results of their collective research in an on-site multimedia exhibit.

Abstract:

The use of precast concrete is rapidly becoming a viable method for repair and rehabilitation of portland cement concrete pavements, with several projects under construction or in development throughout the United States. Construction with precast concrete offers numerous benefits over conventional cast-in-place pavement construction. Most notable is how quickly a precast pavement can be opened to traffic. Precast panels can be placed during overnight or weekend operations and opened to traffic almost immediately. In addition, because precast panels are cast in a controlled environment, the du

Abstract:

The American public has increasingly identified health care as a key issue of concern. In order to address the multiple problems relating to the access and affordability of health care, President Obama and federal lawmakers across the political spectrum continue to call for major health reform. In any debate on health reform, a predictable set of complex policy, management, economic, and legal issues is likely to be raised. Due to the diverse interests involved, these issues could lead to a series of high-stakes policy debates. Therefore, it is critical that advocates of reform strategies anti

The basic premise of Paul Harris's edited volume is that “understanding U.S. international environmental policy is central to the entire project of global environmental protection” because the United States is the “world's largest polluter [as well as] the world's wealthiest country” (p. 4). To argue that the United States is disproportionately important to international environmental policy (or to international policy on most other issues) is an important, but relatively uncontroversial, case to make; and it is made rather well throughout the chapters in this book.

At the level of theoretical foundations, contemporary bioethics is to a large extent Balkanized.

For that reason alone, any attempt to find (or induce) some harmony among these many diverse voices is a welcome addition to the literature. Fragmentation and Consensus is such an attem

Abstract Glial buffering of K+ prevents seizures, hence gliomas in patients on anticonvulsants may harbor potassium related anomalies. Cell membrane potentials are very sensitive to K+ and may link to tumor acidosis when they become more positive than the equilibrium potential for H+ ions (Vaupel, P, et al., Cancer Res, 1989). Kir5.1(KCNJ16) heterodimerizes with Kir4.1(KCNJ10), a major glial potassium channel, to stop K+ conductance in acidosis. Trek1&2(KCNK2&10) are also pH sensitive K+ channels.

Abstract:

As persons with severe developmental disabilities are transferred from institutional environments to community-based programs for habilitation and residential care, a wide variety of service delivery needs and public policy issues must be confronted. In those jurisdictions where the courts have intervened and mandated alternatives to institutional living, the process of change and ensuing alternatives can be profoundly affected by appropriate legal intervention. The task of balancing professional, community, legal, ethical, and political needs in bringing alternatives into existence represents

Abstract This article examines the ways Red Cross training in vulnerability capacity assessment (VCA) structures people’s understandings of the ordinary. This examination is situated within the context of Georgetown, Guyana, after disastrous flooding in 2005 led the Red Cross to deploy VCAs as a method for participatory climate adaptation. The article focuses on the circulation of narratives about the ordinary, which are used by VCA trainees to cultivate ethical responses to flood hazards and the use of water management equipment. It is argued that participatory climate adaptation can be under

Abstract:

Research HighlightsIn the quest to develop cities for the long run, the debate is whether to retain elements of culture or to reinvent such spaces for new uses. Cultural heritage preservation thus becomes an issue in urban planning, particularly in developing countries including Malaysia (Mohd Shakir Tamjes et al, 2017). Scholars mention that Kuala Lumpur needs to create a distinctive city identity and image if it is to achieve its bigger goal of becoming a World-Class City by 2020 (Mohamad Asri Ibrahim et al, 2017). A question raised by researchers is whether the policies to safeguard heritag

Abstract:

Grantsmanship is an integral component of surviving and thriving in academic science, especially in the current funding climate. Therefore, any additional opportunities to write, read, and review grants during graduate school may have lasting benefits on one's career. We present here our experience with a small, student-run grant program at Georgetown University Medical Center. Founded in 2010, this program has several goals: 1) to give graduate students an opportunity to conduct small, independent research projects; 2) to encourage graduate students to write grants early and often; and 3) to

In 2011, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) issued a letter to the Malaysian government expressing concern over the issue of the swiftlet industry in Georgetown, Penang.

Abstract:

At a recent conference I attended, a colleague stated that there was no education abroad research being conducted. In effect, he argued, we were a field without a research base to guide our program design and management. I heartily disagreed, countering that the field is producing an unprecedented amount of research of various types representing a wide range of disciplinary perspectives. The challenge, I said, was to expand our view of what we consider study abroad “research” to be. We work in a complex field that encompasses a tremendous range of issues and topics that invite analyses from mu

Abstract:

The paper expands on the analysis of key projects adoring the machine translation (MT) hall of fame and their role in addressing practical tasks. The most successful initiatives suggest that the fledgling MT was contingent on the level of entropy, a.k.a. random nature of natural languages: the lower the indicator, the higher the predictability of the text, and by implication the efficiency of the system. It accounts for the success of the first Georgetown-IBM experiment and Canada’s METEO-1. The letter grew into a full-fledged system that for almost a quarter of the 20th century, provided Engl

The article addresses the work of British artist and Guyana-raised Hew Locke, between 2007 and 2014. It aims to examine how this work participates in the construction of a cultural memory to make visible, through projects imagined for British imperial monuments, memorial policies that consider the history of diasporas in Great Britain. To do this, the study draws on the analyses of Kobena Mercer, who has reassessed the transnational dimension of Caribbean art in London by revising the art historical habitus of assigning a work to a single place. This allows us to understand the artist’s links
