Undergraduate Research at Community Colleges Equity Discovery and Innovation

Undergraduate Research at Community Colleges Equity Discovery and Innovation

Co-published with the Council on Undergraduate ResearchThis book highlights the exciting work of two-year colleges to prepare students for their future careers through engagement in undergraduate research. It emerged from work in five community college systems thanks to two National Science Foundation grants the Council for Undergraduate Research received to support community colleges’ efforts to establish undergraduate research programs. Chapters one two and three provide background information about community colleges undergraduate research and the systems the author worked with: California City University of New York Maricopa Community College District - Arizona Oklahoma and Tennessee. Chapter four examines success strategies. The next five chapters look at five approaches to undergraduate research: basic/applied course-based community-based interdisciplinary and partnership research. Chapters ten eleven and twelve discuss ways to assess and evaluate undergraduate research experiences inclusive pedagogy and ways to advance undergraduate research. Today there are 942 public community colleges in the United States providing affordable access to 6. 8 million students who enrolled for credit in one of the public two-year institutions in the United States. Students are more prepared for the next step in their education or careers after participating in quality UR experiences. | Undergraduate Research at Community Colleges Equity Discovery and Innovation

Artificial Intelligence on Dark Matter and Dark Energy Reverse Engineering of the Big Bang

Artificial Intelligence on Dark Matter and Dark Energy Reverse Engineering of the Big Bang

As we prod the cosmos at very large scales basic tenets of physics seem to crumble under the weight of contradicting evidence. This book helps mitigate the crisis. It resorts to artificial intelligence (AI) for answers and describes the outcome of this quest in terms of an ur-universe a quintessential compact multiply connected space that incorporates a fifth dimension to encode space-time as a latent manifold. In some ways AI is bolder than humans because the huge corpus of knowledge starting with the prodigious Standard Model (SM) of particle physics poses almost no burden to its conjecture-framing processes. Why not feed AI with the SM enriched by the troubling cosmological phenomenology on dark matter and dark energy and see where AI takes us vis-à-vis reconciling the conflicting data with the laws of physics? This is precisely the intellectual adventure described in this book and – to the best of our knowledge – in no other book on the shelf. As the reader will discover many AI conjectures and validations ultimately make a lot of sense even if their boldness does not feel altogether human yet. This book is written for a broad readership. Prerequisites are minimal but a background in college math/physics/computer science is desirable. This book does not merely describe what is known about dark matter and dark energy but also provides readers with intellectual tools to engage in a quest for the deepest cosmological mystery. | Artificial Intelligence on Dark Matter and Dark Energy Reverse Engineering of the Big Bang

Curriculum and the Problem of Violence Biopolitics Truth History and Fascism

Curriculum and the Problem of Violence Biopolitics Truth History and Fascism

This book is a genealogical inquiry into the present problem of violence in the United States and internationally through the lens of curriculum theory. It explores a constellation of problems including war authoritarianism post-truth social disparities and increasingly onerous surveillance technologies. Arguing that the current problem of violence is neither new nor aberrant the author historicises the conditions of possibility that have produced the violence that presently confronts our world. Seemingly disparate issues such as ethnonationalism authoritarian populism Christian nationalism neoliberalism the proliferation of sophisticated surveillance technologies and military Keynesianism are traced to historical features such as Ur-Fascism white supremacy corporate capitalism religious extremism propaganda and public relations institutional power and the biopolitical death function endemic in modern societies. Through a sweeping powerful and in-depth analysis of violence in its genealogical trajectories in global setting it promises to re-examine curriculum in a different light and open up new possibilities. As such the book is an important curriculum study which supports curricular ethics as articulated by Bill Pinar such as the situation of the self socially and historically the reconstruction of one’s understanding of the self and the world and the potential reconstruction of the social world as more peaceful and just. Significantly the book contributes to a retheorisation of Foucault’s biopolitics as affirmative biopower imbued with ethics of truth-seeking as a technology of the self. It will appeal to scholars and students of curriculum studies with interests in curriculum theory authoritarianism non-violence studies justice studies ethnonationalism and technologies of the self. | Curriculum and the Problem of Violence Biopolitics Truth History and Fascism

Decolonising Heritage in South Asia The Global the National and the Transnational

Decolonising Heritage in South Asia The Global the National and the Transnational

This volume cross-examines the stability of heritage as a concept. It interrogates the past which materialises through multi-layered narratives on monuments and other objects that sustain cultural diversity. It seeks to understand how interpretations of “monuments” as “texts” are affected at the local level of experience even as institutions such as UNESCO work to globalise and fix constructs of stable and universal heritage. Shifting away from a largely Eurocentric concept associated with architecture and monumental archaeology this book reassesses how local and regional heritage needs to be balanced with the global and transnational. It argues that material objects and monuments are not static embodiments of culture but are rather a medium through which identity power and society are produced and reproduced. This is especially relevant in South and Southeast Asian contexts where debates over heritage often have local regional and national political implications and consequences. Reevaluating how traditional valuation of monuments and cultural landscapes could help aid sustainability and long-term preservation of the heritage this book will be useful for scholars and researchers of South and Southeast Asian history heritage studies archaeology cultural studies tourism studies and political history as well. | Decolonising Heritage in South Asia The Global the National and the Transnational
