Perceptions of inclusive learning in academic and clinical environments: A survey of pre-registration healthcare students
Differential attainment among undergraduate/pre-registration healthcare students from diverse sociocultural backgrounds is evident. This research aims to explore healthcare students' feelings of inclusivity and sense of belonging from various demographic groups in order to explore aspects of the student experience that may help make sense of the differential attainment. A self-completed online survey was designed and distributed in seven health p…
Tara Polaris: Shedding light on microbial and climate feedback processes in the Arctic atmosphere
The central Arctic is experiencing warming up to four times faster than the global average. This Arctic amplification is accompanied by large deviations in climate projections, making anticipation of high-impact, near-term regional biodiversity and climate change difficult. Several atmospheric processes contribute simultaneously to Arctic amplification and biodiversity change yet remain largely unstudied, not least because of the difficulty to ac…
Environmental Engel Curves: Indirect Emissions of Common Air Pollutants
Environmental Engel curves (EECs) describe households’ incomes and the pollution necessary to produce the goods and services they consume. We calculate 29 annual EECs from 1984 to 2012 for point-source air pollutants in the United States, revealing three clear results: EECs slope upward, have income elasticities less than 1, and shift down over time. Even without changes to production techniques, pollution would have declined despite growing inco…
Exploring 167 years of vulnerability: An examination of extreme heat events in Australia 1844-2010
Despite their relative importance in terms of human mortality, extreme heat events have not attracted the same level of study compared with other natural hazards in regards to vulnerability and implications for emergency management and policy change. Definitional confusion and inconsistencies in defining heat related deaths over time have made it difficult to determine an absolute death toll. Notwithstanding these issues, this study employs Peril…
Teaching and Learning Using Evidence-Based Principles
In this chapter, we present several cognitive learning theories relevant for novice, expert, and advanced learning, and we discuss their implications for the instructional design and delivery of university management courses. We describe how evidence-based instructional strategies can be derived from cognitive learning theories, and then we apply the strategies to commonly used teaching practices in management courses. We also address a number of…

Crackling Mountain and Other Stories
This collection of previously unpublished work has been carefully chosen to present the most fully rounded portrait of Osamu Dazai, the tragic genius of 20th century Japanese literature. By turns hilarious, introspective, ironic, and mystical, these remarkable tales reveal the full range of Dazai's talents, now lost to the world thanks to his dissolute life and eventual suicide
