The implication of Canvas to enhance English language teaching and learning: A case study conducted at the Nawaloka College of Higher Studies

Technology has had a significant impact on education over the past few decades leading to a transition from paper-based learning towards digital tools. In response, learning management systems were integrated to assist classroom management. However, the perceptions of its users are crucial in determining the success of technology integration. Given that, the study aims to investigate the implication of the Canvas application to enhance English language teaching and learning at Nawaloka College of Higher Studies, Sri Lanka focusing on its user perceptions. Using the qualitative research approach, a questionnaire consisting of both close-ended and open-ended questions was distributed among a sample of 100 students from Engineering and Business backgrounds following the Academic and Communication Skills A module and 6 experienced English teachers. Accordingly, thematic analysis exercised on the data indicated the ease of use, increased motivation and accessibility as contributing to the user’s positive attitude when using the application. Thus, with the identification of benefits achieved through Canvas which outweigh the difficulties such as poor network and lack of knowledge in technology; the study recommends the necessity for higher studies institutes to integrate the same for an enhanced English language teaching and learning experience in tertiary education.

The Impact of Work Experience on Entrepreneurial Intention among Vocational Education Students

One entrepreneurship-related subject that has produced a lot of research is the investigation of entrepreneurial intention (EI). This study aims to investigate the impact of students' work experience across the four categories (SN, ES, ATE, and EE). The methodology employed in this study is quantitative, using a structural equation modelling (SEM) approach. The participants were assigned to multidisciplinary workgroups comprising six to eight individuals with backgrounds in management and engineering. There were five-course iterations between the 2021–2022 academic years. There were 250 students registered for this course. This research supports the belief that instruction in entrepreneurship can improve one's abilities in this area, even if it does not necessarily result in immediate action. This study highlights the importance of entrepreneurial education in increasing entrepreneurial intention among students. Additionally, students' belief in their abilities to become entrepreneurs, based on factors such as technical skills, social skills, and risk-taking abilities, is not affected by prior work experience. The study recognises that students' career experience is essential in understanding the significance of entrepreneurial education in fostering entrepreneurial intention.

An anisotropic finite strain elastoplastic model considering different plastic spin effects on the intermediate configuration

Large deformation anisotropic elastoplastic models have important application background and research value in engineering and materials fields. In this paper, a macroscopic phenomenological model of elastoplastic anisotropic deformation considering plastic spin is proposed. The model is based on the multiplication decomposition of deformation gradient. The free energy function is expressed as the isotropic function of the strain and the structural tensor on the intermediate configuration, which is a push-forward of initial configuration by using plastic deformation gradient. Advantageously, the non-equilibrium free energy function remains invariant under the superimposed rigid body rotation on the intermediate configuration, which is due to the non-uniqueness of the multiplicative decomposition of deformation gradient. However, the rate of superimposed rigid body rotation has effects on the model. The effects are discussed by considering three different spin assumptions. Numerical simulations show that the plastic spin has influence on the calculation results. Therefore, the plastic spin assumption should be carefully selected in the practical application of elastoplastic anisotropic model.

Reform and Reconstitution of Core Courses in Mechanical and Electronic Engineering Under the Background of New Engineering

With the arrival of the intelligence era of Industry 4.0, social development has shown complex and diversified characteristics, gradually forming an innovation ecological environment constructed by vertical interaction of multi-layer innovation systems and horizontal collaboration of multiple organizations and departments, which has posed extremely challenging requirements for higher engineering education to cultivate engineering talents with comprehensive engineering qualities who can solve complex engineering problems. However, practical engineering problems may involve a complex knowledge chain of interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary cross-coupling. Therefore, higher engineering education needs to form a new interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary integrated engineering innovation talent training system. Based on the characteristics of the mechanical and electronic engineering major, we will reshape and reconstruct the core courses of the mechanical and electronic engineering major. Two core courses are formed: Drive and Measurement and Control I and Drive and Measurement and Control II, with information flow and energy flow as the main lines, following up with the comprehensive practical curriculum system based on the unity of knowledge and practice and ability-oriented thinking, supporting teaching objectives, promoting students’ individual development, and providing guidelines for relevant curriculum reforms.

Research on the impact and control techniques of gangue rib in hard roof

Blocking gangue support is a key link in gob-side entry retaining by roof cutting and pressure release (GERRC), and its stability is related to the success or failure of the retained roadways. Due to the severe dynamic pressure and high hardness of the gangue during hard roof collapse, serious bending and toppling instability of the section steel can easily occur. Since potential safety hazards exist in gangue ribs, the 1105 panel of the Qiuji Coal Mine is used as the engineering background, a mechanical model of gangue impact is constructed based on four forms of gangue motions, and the failure of a blocking gangue support structure under hard roof conditions is explored with ABAQUS software. The results indicate the following: (1) Section steel experiences transient bending by gangue impact, and will further bending failure or toppling instability occurs under roadway roof subsidence and gangue compression. (2) This impact causes the steel bar mesh to generate a significant transient lateral force, which couples with gangue compression, resulting in instability and slip of the section steel. To this end, three optimized components have been proposed, sliding yield I-steel, reinforced bolts and link components, and the optimal parameters are obtained. The results of the numerical simulation and field tests suggest that the new blocking gangue support structure has a good support effect, and the field deformation of the gangue rib is reduced by 86%. No failure of I-steel occurs with the new blocking gangue support structure. This study can provide a reference for the control of gangue ribs in GERRC under similar geological conditions.

What entrepreneurial skillsets support responsible value creation in health and social care? A mixed methods study

AbstractAlthough various scholars underscore the importance of innovating responsibly in view of today's societal challenges, less attention has been paid to the entrepreneurial skillset, that is, the range of individual skills and organizational capabilities, that innovation‐based organizations mobilize to deliver new responsible products and services. This paper thus explores the relationships between the entrepreneurial skillsets of 16 Canadian and Brazilian for‐profit and not‐for‐profit organizations producing Responsible Innovations in Health (RIH) and their degree of responsibility. Our mixed methods study includes interviews with entrepreneurs (n = 23) and fieldnotes as well as quantitative results from the RIH Assessment Tool. Our findings identify four skillset orientations—Technical, Technical + Business, Social, and Social + Business—that not only reflect (co)founders' training and entrepreneurial motivations but also a proclivity toward the consolidation of either “Technical” or “Social” skills and capabilities. Such consolidation is made possible by recruiting high‐level executives with diverse backgrounds or by tapping on external knowledge sources (e.g., boards of directors, incubators, or volunteers). As five enterprises had no formal business skills, patterns associated to their overall RIH score (ranging from 1 to 5) reveal intriguing results. Organizations with a Social + Business skillset have a slightly lower RIH score (4.1) than those with a Social skillet (4.4) and those with a Technical + Business skillset have a slightly higher score (3.5) than those with a Technical skillset (3.0). The presence of business skills thus appears to mediate the relationship between entrepreneurial skillsets and the degree of responsibility, which may be linked to the distinct roles of ordinary (“doing things right”) and dynamic capabilities (“doing the right things”). These exploratory findings have scholarly and practical implications. First, the tensions and synergies characterizing responsible value creation should be approached by examining the complementary skills and capabilities that need to be assembled and consolidated. Second, the eight cases with a Social + Business skillset clarify the unique capabilities needed to produce highly responsible health innovations. Third, entrepreneurs with a scientific or engineering background should recognize that a Technical skillset is not enough. Fourth, recognizing that “falling in love with the cause” of RIH is not sufficient, investors and boards of directors should adequately support responsible entrepreneurs towards the proper orchestration of skills and capabilities that can reconcile economic and social goals.
