Circular resettlement and ongoing risk
Circular resettlement” can be a sustainable livelihood strategy for disaster-displaced communities. • Community members’ perception of risk in both old/new settlements can contribute to decision-making and governance. • Contemporary resettlement policies are a product of regional political histories, as well as donor-driven intervention. • Resettlement is both a temporal and spatial process. • “Integrated” resettlement policies should proactively…
Needs and uses of scientific information for earthquake and monsoon contingency planning by humanitarian clusters in Nepal
Embedding scientific knowledge in policy and practice is crucial for effective disaster risk reduction and planning, but key barriers remain in using science effectively for these purposes. In countries like Nepal, subjected to frequent multi-hazards like earthquakes and landslides, science is acutely needed but not always utilized for risk planning. Here we explore the current uses and requirements for science-based risk information in earthquak…
Settler Sensibilities and Environmental Change
Malaria eradication arrived in Nepal in the 1950s as part of a global initiative to make malarial landscapes available for land reclamation and universal settlement. This article situates period reports from World Health Organization personnel involved in the Nepal Malaria Eradication Organization alongside testimonies from two malaria eradication workers from the country's Farwestern Tarai region to disentangle the socioecological and political …
Maroons and the Marooned
Negotiating Freedom in the Circum-Caribbean
In this dissertation-turned-book, Helen McKee makes a significant contribution to studies of Jamaican Maroons, the burgeoning scholarship on freedom and unfreedom, and comparative research on maroons and other free and semifree communities of color in the Atlantic World.She accurately notes, as have others before her, that a great deal can be learned and understood about the Maroons simply by changing the traditional framework of analysis, viewin…
"Jamaica's Windward Maroon "Slaveholders
This article is a quantitative analysis of data sets from 1810-20 related to Maroon "slaveholding" in the Proceedings of the Honourable House of Assembly Relative to the Maroons, which have been published in the Journals of the House of Assembly of Jamaica. Colonial officials in Jamaica identified some Maroons in the Charles Town and Moore Town census records as slaves or slaveholders. The data provide important insights into how bondage may have…

Color Coding of Circuit Quantities in Introductory Circuit Analysis Instruction
Learning the analysis of electrical circuits represented by circuit diagrams is often challenging for novice students. An open research question in electrical circuit analysis instruction is whether color coding of the mathematical symbols (variables) that denote electrical quantities can improve circuit analysis learning. The present study compared two groups of high school students undergoing their first introductory learning of electrical circ…

Introductory Circuit Analysis Learning From Abstract and Contextualized Circuit Representations
Novice learners are typically unfamiliar with abstract engineering symbols. They are also often unaccustomed to instructional materials consisting of a combination of text, diagrams, and equations. This raises the question of whether instruction on elementary electrical circuit analysis for novice learners should employ contextualized representations of the circuits with familiar components, such as batteries, or employ abstract representations w…
Circuits Kit K–12 Outreach
Outreach to K-12 schools is important for attracting students to electrical engineering. Circuits kits provide K-12 students hands-on interactions with electrical circuits. The goal of this experimental study was to investigate the effects of two types of electrical circuit element representations on the self-reported perceptions of the outreach activity and learning of elementary and high school students. In the abstract representation type, the…
Technological Literacy Learning With Cumulative and Stepwise Integration of Equations Into Electrical Circuit Diagrams
Technological literacy education involves the teaching of basic engineering principles and problem solving, including elementary electrical circuit analysis, to non-engineering students. Learning materials on circuit analysis typically rely on equations and schematic diagrams, which are often unfamiliar to non-engineering students. The goal of this experimental study was to investigate the effects of the integration of equations into circuit diag…
