This study examined the effect of human resource factors and the moderating role of gender on online teaching intention among course tutors in distance education.A quantitative approach and survey design were adopted for the study.Data were gathered with a self-administered questionnaire from 539-course tutors (teachers on the distance mode) in a u
Scale in passing: Re-calibrating narrowness through spatial interventions
Reflecting on the art installation Motion of Scales, which was temporarily installed in the city centre of Kolding, Denmark, as a part of the NORDES 2021 conference, this article explores the interrelation between body, material and its performative potential.Analysing the design process through description and observation of how it was experienced
Genetic variation in populations of the earthworm, Lumbricus rubellus, across contaminated mine sites
Abstract Background Populations of the earthworm, Lumbricus rubellus, are commonly found across highly contaminated former mine sites and are considered to have under-gone selection for mitigating metal toxicity.Comparison of adapted populations with those found on less contaminated soils can provide insights into ecological processes that demonstr
Geomagnetic field effects on the performance of 8-inch dynode photomultiplier tubes
Two different systems have been built to study the geomagnetic field effect on the performance of large area photomultiplier tubes.The main characteristics of photomultiplier tubes such as gain, collection efficiency, transition Staging time spread and energy resolution were measured to investigate the effect.This study shows that both the dynode s
An Optimization via Simulation approach for the preemptive and non-preemptive multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problems
In this paper a novel modelling and solving method has been developed to address the so-called resource constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) where project tasks have multiple modes and also the preemption of activities are allowed.To solve this NP-hard problem, a new general optimization via simulation (OvS) approach has Fridge Control Ca
