The flipped classroom is used to place emphasis on the student, by allowing the students to do their own research which can be applied in the classroom. This may beable to be taken to one extreme by allocating each student an area of expertise that all the other students can approach them about. This has be tried in a fourth year Project Orientated, Design Based Learning (PODBL) class.

Although research on discrimination and health has progressed significantly, it has tended to focus on racial discrimination and US populations. This study explored different types of discrimination, their interactions and associations with common mental disorders among Brazilian university students, in Rio de Janeiro in 2010. Associations between discrimination and common mental disorders were examined using multiple logistic regression models, adjusted for confounders. Interactions between discrimination and socio-demographics were tested. Discrimination attributed to age, class and skin color/race were the most frequently reported. In a fully adjusted model, discrimination attributed to skin color/race and class were both independently associated with increased odds of common mental disorders. The simultaneous reporting of skin color/race, class and age discrimination was associated with the highest odds ratio. No significant interactions were found. Skin color/race and class discrimination were important, but their simultaneous reporting, in conjunction with age discrimination, were associated with the highest occurrence of common mental disorders.

The article reflects on the construction of a common Master’s programme across four universities located on four continents, in order to explore the role of networks in international educational collaboration. The study draws on the documented processes of the principal members of the programme team. It is presented as a case study of the development of the programme that uses ideas drawn from actor‐network theory to draw attention to the conjunction of human and non‐human actors that shaped the resulting web‐based courses. Constraints arising from major institutional and systemic obstacles were addressed through the effects of the actor‐network. The reciprocity of action and de‐centring of individual activity made possible through the collaboration enabled the human actors to sustain a level of innovation within their own institutions that would not have been possible through them acting alone.

Parallel manipulators provide several benefits compared to serial manipulators of similar size. These advantages typically include higher speed and acceleration, improved position accuracy and increased stiffness. However, parallel manipulators also suffer from several disadvantages. These drawbacks commonly include a small ratio of the positional workspace relative to the manipulator footprint and a limited rotational capability of the manipulated platform. A few parallel manipulators featuring a large ratio of the positional workspace relative to the footprint have been proposed. This paper investigates the feasibility of employing gearing to extend the range of the end-effector rotation of such mechanisms. The objective is to achieve parallel manipulators where both the positional and rotational workspace are comparable to that of serial manipulators.

The inhibition of HDAC enzymes has proven beneficial for the treatment of a variety of diseases including cancer. This thesis details the development of class selective and fluorescent HDAC inhibitors for cellular imaging. Increased HDAC and anticancer activities were observed, and the fluorescent inhibitors were readily visualised in live cells.

With the launch of the ‘My School’ website in 2010, Australia became a relative latecomer to the publication of national school performance comparisons. This paper primarily seeks to explore the school choice experience as framed by ‘My School’ website, for participating middle-class families. We will draw on Bourdieusian theory of cultural capital and relationship networks and Australian-based school choice research in order to contribute to understandings regarding the application of ‘My School’ data within participating families. Data collection consisted of qualitative, semi-structured, in-depth interviews with five families, each based within inner-city suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria. The findings of this small-scale study indicate that participating middle-class families possessed highly developed strategies for locating and achieving enrolment in school-of-choice and therefore did not seek to apply available data on ‘My School’ to decision-making, despite each participant reviewing the available data.

This paper draws on David Harvey’s theories of absolute and relational space in order to critique geographically bound school choices of the gentrified middle-class in the City of Melbourne, Australia. The paper relies on interviews with inner-city school choosers as generated by a longitudinal ethnographic school choice study. I argue that the participants construct their class-identity in relation to their geographical (or residential) positioning and this influences their schooling choices. In the light of this argument, I theorise geo-identity in thinking about how geographies inform and instruct identity and choice. This paper contributes by offering a focused analysis of Harvey’s spatial theories and class-identity in processes of choice.
