Prepare your institution to support displaced students

PORTLAND, Ore. — When natural disasters or wars strike students’ home countries, support from their college or university and the surrounding community is critical. Campus administrators have addressed challenges for students from China when the COVID‐19 pandemic started, those whose homes were impacted by earthquakes in Nepal and Haiti, and now those from Ukraine whose lives are disrupted by the war, said Julia Funaki. And domestic students can face upheaval as well, such as after Hurricane Katrina, she added. Funaki, Associate Director at the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers, spoke at the organization's annual conference, along with Chris Adams, Associate Director of International Admissions Operations at Indiana University, Bloomington.

Solution] Prepare your video for streaming with Segue

We identify new opportunities in video streaming, involving the joint consideration of offline video chunking and on-line rate adaptation. Due to a video’s complexity varyingover time, certain parts are more likely to cause performanceimpairments during playback with a particular rate adaptationalgorithm. To address such an issue, we propose Segue ,which carefully uses variable-length video segments, and augment specific segments with additional bitrate tracks. The keynovelty of our approach is in making such decisions basedon the video’s time-varying complexity and the expected rateadaptation behavior over time. We propose and implementseveral methods for such adaptation-aware chunking. Ourresults show that Segue substantially reduces rebufferingand quality fluctuations, while maintaining video quality delivered; Segue improves QoE by 9% on average, and by 22%in low-bandwidth conditions. Finally, we view our problemframing as a first step in a new thread on algorithmic anddesign innovation in video streaming, and leave the readerwith several interesting open questions.

Study of Ar+ and He+ implanted SOS-structures

In the work Silicon – on - insulator nanostructures after implantation by various doses of ions 4He+ and 40Ar+ are investigated. Researches were carried out by measurement of optical reflection spectrum and magnitude of work function of an electron. It is shown that ions 40Ar+ in Silicon – on - insulator nanostructures, providing high efficiency of gettering influence, incorporate the neutral divacancy responsible for an observable minimum in ranges of reflection 0.73-0.75eV. As a result of implanted by ions 4He+ the gettering doesn’t occur and the entered defects are divacancies with one negative charge, responsible for an observable maximum in reflection ranges 0.73-0.75eV. The received results indicate possibility of purposeful updating of Silicon – on - insulator nanostructures for improvement of their optical characteristics.

Mineralogy and geochemistry of native iron

Basite magmatism has been manifested repeatedly for a long time in various geodynamic structures within the eastern part of the Siberian platform. In the Middle Paleozoic, it was related to rifting processes, and in the Late Paleozoic-Early Mesozoic – to the initiation and development of trap syneclises. Differences of the geodynamic regime of magma formation are displayed in the material composition of rocks. This report presents a generalizing study of the petro-geochemical features of the tholeiitic basaltic melts formed in different geodynamic settings. The initial magmas composition changes significantly at different stages of the magmatic system development. Using multicomponent analysis, we reviewed the impact of the fractionation processes of the basal melt, which occurred under various PT conditions, on its material composition. Among the trapp bodies there are powerful differentiated intrusions. A significant change of the composition occurs during the intra-chamber differentiation of the melt in a sequence of rock strata varied from the basic magnesian to felsic alkaline rocks. In the resulting series of rocks, the content of rare elements included in the lattice of the early femic phases decreases, as well as the accumulation of almost all incompatible elements. The evolution of melts of normal alkalinity occurs with an increase of REE content and their insignificant separation. Intrusions that have undergone the stage of high-pressure fractionation in the deep transitional chamber are of particular importance. As a result of such differentiation, a peculiar group of rocks is formed in the cross section of the Middle Paleozoic bodies, such as monzonite-porphyries in one case and anorthosite gabbro-dolerites - in the other. It is established that the monzoitoid type of differentiation is characterized by accumulation of LREE, LILE and elements of the zirconium group Nb, Ta, Hf and Y. Isolation of anorthosite gabbro-dolerites in the cross-section of bodies, as well as an increase in the content of aluminum, calcium, and strontium in them, is an indication of the anorthositic tendency of magmatic melt differentiation/When the basite-tholeiite melt interacts with the mantle reducing fluid in the deep core, its metallization occurs with the release of drop-liquid separations of native iron up to the formation of its large segregations. Intrusions with a large-scale content of native iron are found among the trap formations of Siberia. All this leads to a decrease in the total concentration and activity of iron in the partially metallized silicate matrix, there is a significant increase in the content of MgO and trace elements-Ni, Co, Cr. The Fe-phase-containing intrusives are characterized by minimal LILE, HFSE, and REE contents. Start your abstract here… 250 to 500 words concise and factual abstract is required.

Practical Guidance in the Conduct of a Scoping Review: Insights from Experience in the College of Public Health, University of the Philippines Manila

Objective. We aimed to provide practical guidance on the scoping review process, building on the methodologies and general steps outlined by Arksey and O’Malley, Levac et al. and The Joanna Briggs Institute. Methods. We reviewed the methodologies of three scoping studies conducted by the authors in the College of Public Health, University of the Philippines Manila between 2016 and 2017. For each project, we outlined the steps, tools utilized, good practices performed, challenges encountered, and recommendations for improving the scoping review process in relation to existing guidelines. We compared the similarities and differences across the three reviews and guidelines to come up with a list of good practices and recommendations. Results. We propose an expanded 10-step and iterative framework based on our analysis of three scoping studies: Define your research question; 2. Specify your research statement according to population, concept, and context; Prepare the necessary tools, forms, and software packages; 4. Assemble your expert panel and/or consultants; Develop your search strategy; 6. Implement the search strategy and retrieve identified studies; 7. Screen and assess studies for inclusion in the scoping review; 8. Chart the data; 9. Synthesize your results; and 10. Prepare your final report. Conclusion. Scoping reviews as a method of evidence synthesis are increasingly gaining popularity among researchers due to the scope of what can be reviewed in a relatively short amount of time. With only three scoping studies informing our proposed methodology, other issues and challenges in the conduct of a scoping review may have been missed in the expanded framework presented in this paper. We suggest future studies to apply existing scoping review methodologies, to further enhance this rapidly evolving framework in research, policy, and practice.

Prepare your campus to handle changes in complying with immigration laws, policies

The volatile and fluid nature of ongoing changes makes it more difficult than ever for higher education institutions to stay in compliance with the immigration laws impacting international students, faculty, and staff. That's according to immigration law expert Christian G.A. Zeller, Esq., Managing Partner at Maney Gordon Zeller, P.A., who shared his expertise in a webinar hosted by Stetson University's Center for Excellence in Higher Education Law and Policy. The COVID‐19 pandemic disrupted immigration and visa processes, while recent travel bans, entry requirements, and the upcoming election continue to complicate this area of law and federal policy. You'll want to review Zeller's guidance to help your institution comply now while also planning ahead and preparing for other potential changes.
