Abstract:
Transbaikalia is the vast region in Southern Siberia withnumerous mountain ridges within the upper basins of the three big rivers, the Amur (Pacific Ocean basin), the Yenisei and the Lena (Arctic Ocean basin). The most part of Transbaikalia territory is covered by woodlands, however, the steppes are an inherent component in the southern part of the region. Steppe communities occur throughout the broad range of habitats varying in humidity, edaphic conditions, and anthropogenic disturbance. The main aims of presented study are: (1) to develop a phytosociological classification of transbaikalian steppes and to characterize the syntaxa distinguished, (2) to reveal principal ecological factors that have an influence on regional syntaxonomical patterns of the steppe vegetation. From 2005 to 2013, the field studies were carried out in the territory of the Republic of Buryatia. During this period we collected the data set of 829 steppe relevйs. Supplementary characteristics were followed by every relevй: geographical coordinates (measured by GPS); altitude; inclination and exposition; rock outcrops, large stone and debris cover; sand content in the soil. For each relevй climatic parameters from the WorldClim web-database were determined. Plant species indicator values for southern Siberia have been applied (Korolyuk, 2006); the average indicator value for moisture at every relevй was calculated. The data set was stored and managed in the IBIS 6.2 software. To analyze the data structure, a canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) was used. As a result 11 associations were distinguished, all of them belong to the class Cleistogenetea squarrosae Mirkin et al. ex Korotkov et al. 1991. The class represents main dry grassland diversity of the East Siberian–Central Asian sector of Palaearctic (Korolyuk, 2002). The continuous range coincides with the steppe and forest-steppe zones and mountain belts, encompassing Southern Siberia in Russia, as well as the significant part of People’s Republic of Mongolia and Inner Mongolia province in China. Under conditions of the ultracontinental climate, the steppe communities penetrate far to the North in North-Eastern Asia. This class consists of two orders: Stipetalia krylovii (typical bunchgrass steppes of the steppe zone and mountain steppe belt) and Helictotrichetalia sсhelliani (meadow steppes and rich-in-species bunchgrass steppes of mountain forest-steppe). The order Stipetalia krylovii Kononov, Gogoleva et Mironova 1985 represents the central order of the class. It comprises typical steppes predominated by bunch grasses as usual. The order is diagnosed by the same species like those of the class. N. Ermakov (2012) attempted to narrow this order. In his understanding (see below underlined), the order combines typical steppes of Yakutia and is characterized by following features. Communities are extremely poor — 4–9 species per 100 м2. I think that this statement is incorrect. In original publication (Mirkin et al., 1985), wh ere the new association Stipetum krylovii has been described, authors plotted the releve at the size of 1 м2 only. Therefore I can assume that species richness of these steppe communities has been wrongly estimated in regard of 100 м2 plots. According to my own data from the Lena River valley in vicinities of the city of Yakutsk the richness of 20 species (in average) per 100 м2 plot is typical for xerophytic steppes. Yakutian steppes of Stipetalia krylovii are differentiated by meadow steppe species (mesoxerophytes): Artemisia commutata, Festuca lenensis, Poa transbaicalica with a high constancy and many species with a low constancy. From my data, in Transbaikalia such species as Artemisia commutata and Festuca lenensis are common in petrophytic steppes both typical and meadow. In Yakutia, Poa botryoides is typical (d. s. Stipetalia krylovii) instead of Poa transbaicalica. Participation of numerous mesoxerophytes with the low constancy is common for typical steppes from different regions of Southern Siberia and Mongolia (Hilbig, 1995; Namzalov, 2015; Makunina, 2016). Yakutian steppes of Stipetalia krylovii are differentiated by halotolerant plants, namely Saussurea amara and Puccinellia tenuiflora. According to results of my studies as well as literature data, presence of the both species is characteristic for steppe communities in the alases only. Alases are formed as shallow depressions among the taiga landscapes in Central Yakutia, maded by thermokarst, and covered by the meadow or steppe vegetation (Troeva et al., 2010). In such landscapes steppes are spatially patterned into combination with halophytic communities. In well-drained landscapes halotolerant plants are absent. In the definition of Stipetalia krylovii N. Ermakov (2012) based on publications devoted to alases, when steppes from drained terrains were omitted. Thus, none of the three criteria suggested by N. Ermakov (2012) and mentioned above is not acceptable for distinguishing typical steppes of Yakutia from analogue communities of Southern Siberia, including Transbaikalia. This means that the attempt to validate the order Cleistogenetalia squarrosae Mirkin et al. ex Ermakov 2012 was superfluous (Art. 29c, ICPN). Consequently, this order is a synonym of Stipetalia krylovii. Also, the alliance Poo attenuatae–Cleistogenion squarrosae Mirkin et al. ex Ermakov 2012 is to be re­cognized as a synonym of the alliance Stipion krylovii. The alliance Stipion krylovii Kononov, Gogoleva et Mironova 1985 is the central alliance of the order Stipetalia krylovii. It includes non-petrophytic steppes which are common mainly in the mountain steppe belt and the steppe zone. In Western Transbaikalia the alliance is represented by two associations: Cymbario dahuricae–Stipetum krylovii Hilbig (1987) 1990 (the central association of the alliance) and Cleistogeno squarrosae–Festucetum dahuricae Dulepova et Korolyuk 2015 (sandy steppes). Alliance Thymion gobici Mirkin et al. ex Hilbig 2000 comprises xerophytic petrophyte steppes of Transbaikalia, Central and Eastern Mongolia, the Inner Mongola province (China). In Buryatia it is represented by three associations. Ass. Eremogone capillaris–Festucetum lenensis Mirkin et al. 1988 — the central association of the alliance. Petrophytic communities are common both on convex windswept slopes and ridge tops in the forest-steppe and steppe belts. Physiognomy of communities is determined by small cushion-forming species and dwarf semishrubs. Communities of the ass. Selaginelletum rupestris–sanguinolentae ass. nov. are often confined to ridge-top parts of north-facing slopes with outcrops or screes in the Selenga river basin. Community physiognomy is determined by predomination of the low-growing trailing perennial Selaginella sanguinolenta which makes communities noticeably darker as compared to the surrounding steppes. Ass. Selaginello rupestris–Artemisietum subviscosae ass. nov. — the endemic association found in the Barguzin depression. The communities occur on fine gravel soils on river terraces, deluvial foreslopes and convex slopes in the mountain lower belt. Order Helictotrichetalia schelliani Hilbig 2000 comprises meso-xerophytic grasslands, mainly meadow steppes of East Siberian–Central Asian sector of Palaearctic. It unites the most widespread non-forest plant communities of forest-steppe landscapes. The area of the order extends considerably to the north in comparison with the order Stipetalia krylovii. In Transbaikalia, the meso-xerophytic grasslands predominate in the mountain forest-steppe belt up to the heights of 900–1000 m a. s. l. Alliance Helictotrichion schelliani Hilbig 2000 — the central alliance distributed in Altai-Sayan mountains, Western Transbaikalia, northern mountains of Central and Western Mongolia. In the study area we distinguished two suballiances. Suballiance Stipenion baicalensis suball. nov. — the central suballiance representing meadow steppes on fine soils. Communities are found at gentle straight slopes, sometimes occupying slightly concave sites of mountain ridge slopes. The suballiance consists of three associations. The central association is Veronico incanae–Stipetum baicalensis Peterson ex Hilbig 2000. It occurs in the steppe and forest-steppe belts, occupying gentle slopes and piedmont foreslopes. Ass. Carici pediformis–Spiraeetum aquilegifoliae ass. nov. represents meadow steppes with well developed shrub layer. The communities usually occupy steep south-exposed slopes with large stones or outcrops, often of concave shape. By their physiognomy and species composition, the described communities look like the association Amygdalo pedunculatae–Spiraeetum aquilegifoliae, which substituted by them in more humid forest-steppe landscapes. Ass. Thalictro foetidi–Koelerietum cristatae ass. nov. unites the more moist type of the suballiance. The communities are found in the forest-steppe landscapes, usually along gentle straight or concave slopes. Often they occupy steeper parts of slopes along the edges of larch and birch forests. Suballiance Thymenion baicalensis represents petrophyte meadow steppes of Western Transbaikalia. The communities are common in the forest-steppe and steppe landscapes on stony, often convex slopes, ridge tops, sometimes on screes. Ass. Potentillo acaulis–Thymetum baicalensis Chytry et al. 1993 — one of the most widespread steppe plant communities. Ass. Sela­ginello rupestris–Artemisietum monostachyae ass. nov. comprises rich meadow petrophytic steppes. The communities are found in forest-steppe landscapes in the Uda and the Barguzin rivers basins. Ass. Sedo aizoi–Festucetum lenensis ass. nov. includes the more moist variants of meadow petrophytic steppes. The communities are rich and polydominant, mainly with predomination of mesoxerophytic meadow steppe species. They are confined to stony slopes and ridge tops, usually at the forest margins in the Selenga river basin. Strong ecological gradients have been revealed by the numerical analysis of associations. The first axis of CCA-ordination is correlated with humidity which is determined by precipitation, and the soil moisture that depends on landform features as well. The second axis represents edaphic conditions — stones and sand content in the soil. The third axis is the most likely of complex character, however it is especially related with temperature and solar radiation. Due to interlacement of various environmental gradients a high variability of habitats and consequent complicated vegetation patterns within the studied region occured. Further development of the dry grassland syntaxonomy of Inner Asia could be advanced by the involvement of the data from the territories of Eastern Transbaikalia, People’s Republic of Mongolia (Outer Mongolia) and the province of Inner Mongolia in China. This will allow to delineate the distribution of syntaxa, as well as to make a general revision of the class Cleistogenetea squarrosae all over its area of distribution.

Abstract:
The study of the processes of restoration of species richness and productivity of steppe ecosystems after fires is an urgent problem that affects not only the conservation of biodiversity but also the maintenance of pasture resources. This article presents the results of a study of post-pyrogenic effects in steppe ecosystems, taking into account changes in the species composition of cyanoprokaryotes and algae that are art of the biological soil crust, which performs ecologically important functions in xerophytic ecosystems. The investigations were carried out in virgin and post-pyrogenic steppe ecosystems of the “Troitsk Clough” reserve (Zaporizhia region, Ukraine). For three years, the dynamics of the projective cover and the height of the vegetation cover in virgin areas of herbs-fescue-feather-grass and fescue-feather-grass steppes was studied as well as within two ecosystems of post-pyrogenic development after fires that occurred in the spring and winter periods. We discovered that restoration of the herbs-fescue-feather-grass and fescue-feather-grass steppes after fires occurs at different rates. The cause of the slow restoration of vegetation cover can be its severe damage by fire at the beginning of the vegetation season and the development of erosion processes. The number of species of cyanoprokaryotes and algae in the biological soil crust of virgin and post-pyrogenic ecosystems is not significantly different. It varies from 35 to 49 species. The greatest diversity is noted for Cyanoprokaryota. Chlorophyta is in the second place. Among the dominants, the filamentous forms of Cyanoprokaryota prevail. Nostoc edaphicum was noted as a nitrogen fixing representative. The similarity of the species lists of cyanoprokaryotes and algae of post-pyrogenic and virgin ecosystems, according to the calculated Jaccard coefficient, varies from 49.1% to 55.3%. This indicates a strong specificity of the composition of cyanoprokaryotes and algae in post-pyrogenic biological soil crusts. Changes in their composition reflect different stages of post-pyrogenic succession. In the first year after a fire, there is a slight increase in species richness, which is a consequence of the favorable effect of increasing the amount of mineral substances in the soil after the organic matter has burned out. The “pioneer” group includes: Phormidium autumnale, Ph. dimorphum, Ph. retzii, Ph. (Leptolyngbya) henningsii, Luticola mutica, Hantzschia amphioxys. Gradually this effect is leveled and the species richness of cyanoprokaryotes and algae is stabilized at a level peculiar for this type of ecosystem.

Starting in 2006, the author joined and then led field expeditions to central Siberia in search of answers to the greatest murder mystery in the history of Earth: the end-Permian extinction. The rocks that yielded answers were the same kinds of volcanic lavas that can be seen at night on the Moon, or in photos of Mars or Venus. The unyielding Russian engineering that owns the longevity record on the surface of Venus is now used to launch cosmonauts and astronauts from the other end of those same Siberian steppes. Not the data—not the years nor the numbers nor the temperature—but art, as Solzhenitsyn explained, is the only way to reach the heart and soften our pace as we move into another age of space exploration, this time as humans, the author hopes, and not as nations.

Abstract:
Hunting is the oldest kind of human activity preserving traditional forms due to its conservatism. Paleozoologists working in the Northern Black Sea region determined the objects of hunting according to the data obtained from Greek settlements. These are mainly hoofed animals such as deer, roe deer, saigas, and wild boars, and fur animals including hares, foxes, beavers, as well as a variety of birds. According to paleozoological data, hunting was elitist. Unfortunately, it was not taken into account that inhabitants of the settlements hunted in the steppes of foreign lands, and delivered not carcasses of killed animals, but skins and meat. Therefore, skeletal remains cannot objectively reflect the proportions of distribution of hunting objects. Studying ancient texts and toreutics allows us to establish that in the Scythian nomadic world there were such types of hunting as raid, driven hunting, hunting with hounds. It is reasonable to assume that Scythians also utilized hunting birds as their hunting method, as images of hunting birds are widespread among nomads. In the settlements, there can be found skeletal remains of the following hunting birds: saker falcons, golden eagles, gyrfalcons, hawks, etc. Frequent occurrence of their images in the Scythian art and a single case of a saker falcon buried in a male burial of Elizabeth’s burial ground can serve as a vivid example of hunting bird exploitation. Nomads, in particular, could be suppliers of wild animal meat to the settlement and city markets. Inhabitants’ independent hunting in steppes was of extraordinary characteristic. Inhabitants of the settlements could probably hunt outside the fortifications only after the agreement with local nomads.

AbstractThis paper looks at how ethnicity as an aspect of personhood is ‘performed’ among academics and musicians in the contemporary southern Siberian Republic of Khakassia, which is a member of the Russian Federation. It gives a nineteenth-century assessment of musical ethnicity among the Abakan Tatars (i.e. Kachins, Sagais, Bel’tirs, Kyzyls and Koibals), describes the introduction during the Soviet period of the ethnonym ‘Khakas’ through the academic arena, and outlines the controversy that still rages in overlapping academic and musical circles over this and its contemporary divisions. Finally, the paper points to the recent move by musicians to contest their official ‘Khakas’ identities by copying onto their instruments ancient Okunev art from standing stones that litter their steppes, and to reaffirm their Sagai, Khaas and Kyzyl ethnicities by reinstating the traditional inheritance of epic performance among these groups and by differentiating between their musical styles.

Abstract:
Scythian Amazons have attracted the attention of researchers since a long time. The Amazons as the subject is developed in three main directions, conditioned by the choice of a certain group of sources — literary, pictorial and archaeological. The literary and visual aspects have been developed quite thoroughly by many generations of researchers, as evidenced by the representative corpus of monographs and publications. Both these directions developed in parallel, often intersecting. Literary aspect implies the study of the image of the Amazon — one of the brightest in classical ancient mythology and culture. Several topics could be seen as key here: the degree of an existence historicism of these warlike women ; the meaning of the term «Amazon»; the origin of the cycle of myths about the Amazons; plot cycles; confrontation / opposition to heroes; and finally, the Amazons and gender issues. The pictorial aspect is related to the study of a wide range of works of decorative art, in which female warriors appear. Following subjects are developed here: storylines (Amazonomachy as Pan-Hellenic plot, Grifonomachy as the local variant thereof ; an injured Amazon, etc.); the image of an Amazon in art in general (multi-figure compositions, solitary figures) or in its particular forms — architecture, sculpture, plastic, painting, toreutics, vases art, etc.); interpretation of compositions, iconography, detailed analysis of accessories and so on. Archaeological aspect looks the least developed, since it is connected with the necessary field work. In the process of studying the funerary complexes of Scythian female warriors, three stages can be distinguished. At the first stage (second half of the 19th century — the end of the 1950s), during the occasional excavations of the Kurgan antiquities of the Pripontian steppes, single graves of women with weapons were discovered. They seemed to have already been noticed, but as an exceptional phenomenon. The second stage (the second half of the 20th century) is characterized by a change in the vector of archaeological researches — at this time, not only the large Kurgans begin to be explored, but also the burial grounds of the rank soldiers. Excavation materials are introduced into scientific circulation. The first analytical works appear (O. Ganina, V. Olkhovskiy, V. Ilinskaya and A. Terenozhkin, E. Buniatian, E. Fialko, R. Rolle, V. Guliaev). It should be noted that these publications are used to this day by foreign colleagues. The third stage (the end of the 20th century — the beginning of the 21st century) was marked by a forced turn from fieldwork, especially barrows, to the office investigations. At this time there were publications of a series of graves of Amazons in individual burial grounds, in different regions of European Scythia (steppe and forest-steppe Dnieper, Crimea, Transdnistria and the Don region). Their number reached 250. These works treated different types of the burial structures, certain categories of burial items of Scythian Amazons, their social stratification, complexes chronology, etc. These materials bring us closer to interesting conclusions and generalizations.

A largely boreal fauna occupies the spruce forest zone at high elevations of the Tienshan Mountains, giving way, lower down, in elm forest, to a mixed, but primarily mesic temperate fauna. Loess desert and degraded steppe at mid-elevations and in the foothills are overgrazed and have only a few species that elsewhere occur in temperate mesic and/or steppic habitats. The sandy deserts and poplar woodlands of the arid Junggar Basin have a fauna characteristic of deserts and steppes. The salt desert fauna has a strange mixture of a number of elements.

Abstract:
Background: this article is devoted to the work of the Kyrgyz Soviet writer ChingizAytmatov. In the vast world of fiction, Aytmatov's works amaze us with their figurative system. Against the background of everything and everyone, admires us with the simplicity, beauty, the variety of images created by the writer, whether it is the image of a person, politician, journalist, village shepherd, tree, horse, whale, ocean, etc.The Sarozek steppes, the vastness of space, Issyk-Kul, the Kremlin, Red Square in Moscow, a yurt in a Kyrgyz village, a church choir, Shostakovich's music, Georgian singing, Baikonur, legends about mankurt and many other concepts and phenomena of humanity make up the figurative system of ChingizAytmatov. The created artistic images cover huge layers of the life of peoples, an individual person, accompanying a person with his constant anxieties, experiences, joy, gains, losses and much of what we call life. Results: Reading Aytmatov, getting imbued with his images, we are more and more convinced that literature in a number of other arts is closer and more understandable to a person, because the main means of artistic expression is the word, this is a natural need for communication between people. We love to speak out, hear someone's confession; we simply cannot do without speech. And then we ask ourselves the question, what is this - the art of the word, how the word turns into an artistic image and makes us compassionate, laugh and cry, think, agree and argue, and most importantly receive aesthetic pleasure, because literature is an art. Conclusions: All ingenious is simple. Characters, descriptive elements of the plot, used by the author to create certain images, are in a certain system, filled with aesthetic, philosophical, realistic meaning.

We present the results of an interdisciplinary study of an unusual sample of wool fabric, found at the Jety-Asar-2 fortifi ed site, representing the Jety-Asar culture of the late 4th century BC to early 1st century AD, in the central Turan Plain. We outline the results of the analysis of the dyes and technological characteristics of the fabric. The woven pattern is described in detail. The specimen is compared with the tapestry from Shanpula (Sampul) cemetery in the Hotan oasis, Xinjiang, China. We examine the idea that the Jety-Asar fabric had been manufactured in Shanpula and transported to the Aral basin along the Great Silk Road. Previously, this type of tapestry was believed to have been used only in the Hotan oasis, because no direct parallels with other areas were known. A direct parallel with such a remote westerly region is all the more intriguing. Apparently, colorful strips of woolen tapestry depicting animals, birds, humans, fantastic beings, mountains, and fl owers were in big demand. The tradition, then, may have been distributed much more widely than previously thought. Many anthropomorphic, zoomorphic, plant, and purely decorative motifs have numerous parallels in the Early Iron Age art of the Eurasian steppes, highlands, and piedmont areas. The Shanpula people used such fabric for decorating skirts. In other cultures, it was destined for various purposes.

Abstract:
Lyre shaped ornament is a common motif of ornamental and folklore applied art. But, unfortunately, the origins of the lyre shaped motif are still not well investigated. In the paper we review the literature devoted to the study of the emergence and spread of a lyre shaped motif and analyze museum exhibits from catalogs and published sources. The aim of the study is to define the сenters of the lyre motif origin and the paths of its distribution. Material and methods. Article analyzes lyre shaped motifs in museum artifacts, folk arts and crafts using materials presented in published literature and catalogs of museum exhibits. A spiral motif originated in Egypt. The origins of the lyre motif in ancient Egypt are probably connected with the iconography of the Egyptian god of Hathor, who was depicted as a woman with a headdress decorated with lyre shaped horns and a solar disk between them. It should be noted that the tradition of depicting a human face with cow horns has connections with the Neolithic period of the Nile Valley, where cattle breeding arose in the 6-5th millennium BC. The first cases of using a lyre shaped motif occured in scarab-like seals of Egypt and Minoan culture. Artifacts with a lyre shaped motif were observed related, dating from the Minoan and Mycenaean periods, during to the period of classical Hellenistic Greece. A lyre shaped motif was spread along trade routes from Crete to the Danube, the Elbe, the shores of the Baltic Sea and, together with the Celts, penetrated into Britain, from the Greek colonies of the Black Sea to the Scythians. In the Asian part of the Eurasian steppes, this motif symbolized the image of the eagle totem animal depicted like a griffin, especially in the early Scythian and Hunnic period. The origins of the lyre shaped motif in the Asian steppe, apparently, were the ancient motifs “taotie” in China and “masks” in the Russian Far East. The popularity of the lyre shaped motif in the folk arts and crafts of the Turkic peoples was probably due to the spread of this motif within the Scythian community, when there was a cult of the eagle-like griffin and totem.

CNC machines are used with plenty of different implementations, one of which is in this project where a polar CNC machine was used to draw mesmerizing patterns on a table with fine sand. This construction read G-code and converted it to polar coordinates. The capabilities of what the plotter could draw were tested, everything from ODE plots to custom-made patterns and drawings with the help of Sandify. Although the patterns were drawn properly with small errors the ODE was too difficult to draw because it required a smaller magnetic ball and an even more precise system than what was used. This machine also generated noise at roughly 33 dB when it was in use.

Förmågan av vad maskinen kunde rita testades, allt från ODE grafer till specialtillverkade mönster och ritningar med hjälp av Sandify. Aven om de olika mönstren ritades ordentligt men med mindre små fel var ODE för svårt att rita på grund av att det krävde en mindre magnetisk kula och ännu mer noggrannhet jämfört med detta system. Denna maskin alstrade också ljud på cirka 33 dB under användning.

Considerations about steppe elements in modern Arctic and Antarctic high latitudes, about problematic sofy edoma, which was the ground for Late Pleistocene cryoarid mammoth prairies and their genetic relations to modern steppes are expounded. Taking the Antarctic hair grass (Deschampsia antarctica) Antarctic expansion into consideration, the steppe trace spreading is acknowledged for both Hemispheres high latitudes. The grass expansion in both Central Arctic and Antarctic is considered a compensation for steppe loss in their geographical zone and future potential for agricultural economy.

Full text
Abstract:
As the world economy rapidly decarbonises to meet global climate goals, the export credit sector must keep pace. Countries representing over two-thirds of global GDP have now set net zero targets, as have hundreds of private financial institutions. Public and private initiatives are now working to develop new standards and methodologies for shifting investment portfolios to decarbonisation pathways based on science. However, export credit agencies (ECAs) are only at the beginning stages of this seismic transformation. On the one hand, the net zero transition creates risks to existing business models and clients for the many ECAs, while on the other, it creates a significant opportunity for ECAs to refocus their support to help countries and trade partners meet their climate targets. ECAs can best take advantage of this transition, and minimise its risks, by setting net zero targets and adopting credible plans to decarbonise their portfolios. Collaboration across the sector can be a powerful tool for advancing this goal.

Full text
Abstract:
Public transit ridership in California declined in the five years before the pandemic of 2020–21 and dropped significantly further after the pandemic began. A sharp downward step in the level of transit boarding occurred after February 2020, and continues to the date of this report as a result of the public-health guidance on social distancing, expanded work-at-home, and a travel mode shift from public transit to private cars. A critical issue has come to the foreground of public transportation policy, namely, how to increase the quality and geographic reach of transit service to better serve the essential trips of mobility disadvantaged citizens who do not have access to private vehicle travel. The research focus of this report is an examination of the circumstances where fixed route bus route service could cost-effectively be replaced by on-demand microtransit, with equivalent overall zone-level efficiency and a higher quality of complete trip service. Research methods were reviews of documented agency experience, execution of simple simulations, and sketch-level analysis of 2019 performance reported in the National Transit Database. Available evidence is encouraging and suggestive, but not conclusive. The research found that substitutions of flexible microtransit for fixed route buses are already being piloted across the U.S., with promising performance results. The findings imply that action steps could be taken in California to expand and refine an emphasis on general purpose microtransit in corridors and zones with a relatively high fraction of potential travelers who are mobility disadvantaged, and where traditional bus routes are capturing fewer than 15 boardings per vehicle hour. To be sufficiently productive as fixed route replacements, microtransit service technologies in the same or larger zones need to be capable of achieving vehicle boardings of five per hour, a challenge worth addressing with technology applications. Delivery of microtransit service can be undertaken through contracts with a growing set of private sector firms, which are developing processes to merge general purpose customers with those now assigned to ADA-required paratransit and Medi-Cal-supported non-emergency medical transport.

Full text
Abstract:
This report describes an online course developed to support education systems to build an aligned and sustainable approach to integration of 21st Century Skills (21CS). 21CS are those skills that are considered particularly important to succeed in today’s knowledge-based society in which innovation and technology are predominant. Prominent examples include critical thinking, creative thinking, and collaboration, and such skills need to be better understood in order for them to be integrated. While different countries may have their own frameworks or priorities surrounding 21CS, a consistent approach to integration can still be achieved with a shared understanding from all stakeholders within the system. The course objectives focused on supporting countries to develop a strategic plan for 21CS integration, providing resources to aid that plan, and building capacity to implement the plan. The specific learning objectives were to: Understand components and steps leading to 21CS alignment; Conduct a needs analysis, identifying which steps are currently being met, and which steps need more attention; Develop a strategic plan, identifying which steps are to be prioritized and in which order; Gain insights from other education systems from reflections on successful developments and lessons learned; and Engage in discussion within education systems and with other countries about the emerging area of skills integration, as well as identify future directions. Course participants joined from across 16 Asia Pacific countries and from the Education Quality and Assessment Programme for the Pacific Community (EQAP). The course comprised of eight modules that were spread over three weeks, with content hosted online through the Moodle platform.Each module consisted of pre-recorded video content (30-60 minutes) and team and/or individual activities. The modules were supported by three live sessions that allowed participants to ask questions and share reflections in real time. The course concluded with a webinar that consisted of presentations that were delivered by one member from each Core Strategy Team who shared their team’s strategic plan and reflections from this course.

Abstract:
These guidelines compactly describe how an interdisciplinary institutional analysis is to be implemented in practice: Which steps of analysis and control have to be taken? Which research questions are important and which role do empirical results play in the analysis?The description will be based on the requirements that the legislator has to fulfil with regard to the estimation of effects (as it is regulated in § 44 of the Joint Rules of Procedure of the Federal Ministries (Gemeinsame Ges-chäftsordnung der Bundesministerien, GGO) and in the guidelines of the Eu-ropean Commission). The steps of analysis and examination outlined in this paper can be equally used in relation to institutional design problems in companies (like the ad-justment of determining factors regarding ‘Governance, Risk Management, Compliance’ – GRC), associations or authorities. At the end of the compact guidelines, key terms of institutional analysis will be explained in a glossary. The glossary further contains recommendations on secondary literature.

Abstract:
This study examines the collaborative processes the Chicago Alliance for Equity in Computer Science (CAFÉCS) uses to conduct and use research. The CAFÉCS RPP is a partnership between Chicago Public Schools (CPS), Loyola University Chicago, The Learning Partnership, DePaul University, and University of Illinois at Chicago. Data used in this analysis comes from three years of evaluation data, and includes an analysis of team documents, meeting observations, and interviews with 25 members of the CAFÉCS RPP team. The analysis examines how three problems are being investigated by the partnership: 1) student failure rate in an introductory computer science course, 2) teachers’ limited use of discussion techniques in an introductory computer science class, and 3) computer science teacher retention. Results from the analysis indicate that the RPP engages in a formalized problem-solving cycle. The problem-solving cycle includes the following steps: First, the Office of Computer Science (OCS) identifies a problem. Next, the CAFÉCS team brainstorms and prioritizes hypotheses to test. Next, data analysis clarifies the problem and the research findings are shared and interpreted by the entire team. Finally, the findings are used to inform OCS improvement strategies and next steps for the CAFÉCS research agenda. There are slight variations in the problem-solving cycle, depending on the stage of understanding of the problem, which has implications for the mode of research (e.g hypothesis testing, research and design, continuous improvement, or evaluation).

Abstract:
Learning disabilities are among the most common disabilities experienced in childhood and adulthood. Although identifying learning disabilities in a school setting is a complex process, it is particularly challenging in low- and middle-income countries that lack the appropriate resources, tools, and supports. This guide provides an introduction to learning disabilities and describes the processes and practices that are necessary for the identification process. It also describes a phased approach that countries can use to assess their current screening and evaluation services, as well as determine the steps needed to develop, strengthen, and build systems that support students with learning disabilities. This guide also provides intervention recommendations that teachers and school administrators can implement at each phase of system development. Although this guide primarily addresses learning disabilities, the practices, processes, and systems described may be also used to improve the identification of other disabilities commonly encountered in schools.
