Abstract:

Research has provided evidence that augmented reality (AR) can be an effective tool to improve teaching and learning across multiple domains. Research is limited, however, in several key areas related to AR. For instance, motivation and situational interest are critical to student learning outcomes. However, little is known about the relationship between the two constructs and AR, particularly for AR that leverages location-based triggers. This study addressed this need by analyzing data from participants who used an application that delivers location-based, instructional AR content about the tragic shootings that occurred on May 4th, 1970, at Kent State University. Data findings showed significant decreases in motivation, but significant growth in situational interest and content knowledge. Implications for development of future location-based AR applications are discussed.

Abstract:

This study aims to analyze the influence of the ‘May 4, 1970 Kent State Shootings and its aftermath’(Ma4a) on citizenship education in American high schools and to identify implications for the institutionalization of movement-oriented citizenship education in Korea. The data were analyzed using the methodology of ‘qualitative content analysis.' The data on Ma4a was collected by visiting the ‘May 4 Site,’ ‘May 4 Visitors Center,’ and ‘May 4 Digital Archive’ at KSU in 2021 and 2022. It was also useful to refer to the undergraduate course on Ma4a. The data on high school citizenship education in the United States were collected from Ohio Curriculum Standards of social studies, history textbooks, and teachers’ lesson plans. ‘May 4, 1970’ was described as “civil disobedience” rather than “riot” in social studies curricula, history textbooks, and lesson plans after its institutionalization from the late 1990s to the early 2000s. The constitutional right of ‘freedom of speech and assembly’ was not undermined by the ‘national security ideology.’ However, after the events of September 11, 2001, and the 2008 economic crisis, the Ohio Department of Education described the people's right to protect themselves from only “undue” governmental interference. The paradigm of citizenship education in U.S. schools changed due to the contest between state-centric citizenship and participatory citizenship. Social movements influenced citizenship education through the institutionalization of movement knowledges by movement intellectuals, which took a lot of time. This study has implications for the institutionalization of movement-oriented citizenship education, such as ‘Jeju 4·3 education for peace and human rights’ in Korean schools.

Abstract:

Chrissie Hynde relocated to London from her native Ohio in 1973. She has now spent well over twice as much time in Britain as she has in America, only moving back briefly to care for her dying parents - whose passing facilitated the releasing of her autobiography: Reckless (2015). When she moved to London she felt she had found her spiritual home, in direct contrast to Akron, her fast changing hometown. In forming this link Hynde can tell us a lot about America from a British perspective. She lived on the front line with, for example, first hand experience of the Kent State University shooting, whilst England still had no place for the Street Fighting Man: Her America is not the wild west of her hero Keith Richards, nor the ‘continuous positioning of himself vis-à-vis America’ of her ex-husband Ray Davies. Hers is the visceral and realistic picture of a failing society. Hynde is a complex character. Famously tetchy, intensely private, why did this American become such an Anglophile, living under the noses of the infamous English media? Cynical of the American Dream she chose to escape to what was the most exciting place in the world of entertainment in the 1970s. Talking of her material heritage she states ‘it was the ‘land of opportunity’ but people like mine didn’t get very many back then’. How prescient she was, as those failures come home to roost now in the politics of the US. Chrissie Hynde is arguably the epitome of the ‘British Other’, a legal alien if you will, offering a perceptive eye and commentary upon the world across the pond. Like Henry James before her, she adds an extra, informed, dynamic in her sharp analysis of America compared to anyone else.

Abstract:

Following the shootings at Jackson State College, students, police, government officials, and reporters fought for control of the story. Three primary narratives emerged. The first one accurately understood the shootings as another example of state violence against African Americans. The second sympathized with the victims, but emphasized their identity as students, linking the shootings at Jackson State and Kent State ten days earlier. A third counter-narrative, a racially infused account focused on law and order, blamed the young people at Jackson State for the violence. These narratives influenced the investigations, commissions, and legal proceedings, where the competing understandings had tangible stakes. A mayor’s bi-racial committee and the President’s Commission on Campus Unrest both demonstrated substantial understanding of the racialized causes of the shootings but had no legal standing. Alternatively, federal and county grand juries used the law and order narrative to demonize the students as criminals and justify the shootings.

Abstract:

The tragedy at Jackson State never gained the traction the Kent State shootings did. The public was informed about the story due to significant coverage in major media. The investigations, grand juries, and trial continually returned the events to the public eye. Nevertheless, the episode did not gain a place in the nation’s public memory. Chapter 6 explores the twin processes of remembering and forgetting the shootings, especially the important role played by attitudes about race and its meaning in determining their course. Struggling to protect the memory of the Jackson State shootings, many people framed those who died as martyrs to the cause of racial justice. However, a white liberal preference for the student narrative, which allowed the negation of race, facilitated the nation’s public amnesia about Jackson State. A simplistic narrative of racial progress in which the shootings made a better future possible also facilitated the amnesia.

Abstract:

This chapter covers Dorothy Wright Nelson’s pathbreaking work as dean of the University of Southern California Law Center. She was one of the early women deans in legal education for five years and in her term was the only female dean of a law school accredited by the American Bar Association. Times were challenging: she dealt with protests against the Vietnam War and Kent State shootings, the nearby Watts riots, and the struggles of an early affirmative action program at USC. She used her mediation skills to deal with complaints from a variety of constituents: trustees, alumni, faculty, and students. She was an extremely successful dean, putting student interests first and raising funds and creating a national reputation for USC Law. She was active in national leadership work for legal education and court reform.

Abstract:

Over the past years, the commercial interest in returning to the Moon and in exploring the deep space is increasing, this making the research in the field prosperous. In this context, Spacecraft Trajectory Design covers a fundamental role in the success of the overall mission. Fuel minimization is a key factor in the design of space manoeuvres, due to the desire of improving the efficiency of future missions to the Moon and to the outer space. The proposed work is inserted in this context, since it aims to provide a full optimization algorithm for fixed-time transfer trajectories between non-Keplerian orbits in the Earth-Moon framework, with the objective of minimizing the total propellent usage in terms of impulsive manoeuvres. The dynamics of Circular Restricted Three Body Problem (CR3BP) is used as mathematical model, as the majority of the state-of-the-art works present in literature considers it as a valuable approximation for preliminary studies in mission design analysis. The method is based on Primer Vector Theory, which gives the necessary conditions of local optimality and provides a clear indication of where to add intermediate impulses in order to decrease the total cost. The algorithm automatically generates the optimal sequence of impulses for a given transfer to occur at the lower cost possible. The procedure is mainly composed by three steps: first, a 2-impulses initial trajectory is guessed, then a midcourse impulse is initialized with Primer Vector theory, thanks to the investigation of the Primer Vector along the trajectory, and finally its position and time are optimized via a minimization procedure. The whole sequence is repeated until the transfer path satisfies the Primer Vector optimality conditions. In this work, the initial guess is computed via “orbit chaining”, a technique that selects a fixed number of intermediate points located on orbits belonging to the same family and then interpolates them. The Time of Flight is computed in this step and kept fixed for the whole optimization process. The position and time of all the intermediate impulses are optimized with a Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarb–Shanno algorithm, which exploits the knowledge of the gradient of the cost function, namely the sum of the modules of Δv. The non-linear nature of the problem implies the existence of some numerical issues, which are also discussed in this work. The most significant ones are the singularities of the model in the proximity of the attractive bodies and the convergence problem during the computation of arcs, which is related to the Multiple shooting procedure. The algorithm is applied for two specific orbits around Lagrange point L2, which is one of the five equilibrium points of CR3BP. More specifically, Near Rectilinear Halo Orbits are considered, a class of non-Keplerian orbits which are periodic and weakly unstable. Results are shown, in terms of total Δv required and optimality achievness, for all the combinations of transfer from 36 departure states to 36 arrival states, each one identified by the non-Keplerian equivalent of the mean anomaly on the corresponding orbit. From the results shown, the proposed method highlights good performance in terms of Δv saving and computational complexity.
