This chapter presents a set of requirements for next generation groupware systems to improve team cooperation and awareness in distance learning settings. The premise of the chapter is based on the observation that in distance learning online asynchronous (e.g., e-mail, conference tools) or synchronous (e.g., chat) mechanisms are used to facilitate collaboration and coordination to complete necessary tasks. However, students are neither trained in basic principles regarding how effective cooperation takes place, nor means for their realization. Basic methods of cooperation are delineated along with a set of requirements based on a critical analysis of the elements of cooperation and team awareness. The means for realizing these elements are also discussed to present strategies to develop the proposed elements. Two scenarios are examined to demonstrate the utility of collaboration to provide deep integration of communication and task accomplishment within a unified coherent framework.

Abstract The spherical green alga Volvox consists of several hundred or thousand of somatic cells that undergo terminal differentiation, senescence and death, and a small number of gonidia (asexual reproductive cells) that give rise to the next generation. In the first part of this paper, the ontogenetic diversity of the genus Volvox is briefly considered, as well as the mechanisms of differentiation into the two types of cells mentioned above, which have been thoroughly studied during recent years in Volvox carteri. Then, a detailed critical analysis of the literature and some of my own data on senescence and cell death (mainly in V. carteri and, to a lesser extent, in V. aureus) was carried out, and it was noted that this aspect of Volvox developmental biology has not been sufficiently studied. Some perspectives of further research of the processes of cell death and senescence in representatives of the genus Volvox in a comparative aspect are indicated.

Exploring two case studies – Thor and Black Panther – the article reveals how the use of Science and Entertainment Exchange (SEEX) advisers can help inspire the next generation of STEM careerists and popularize a variety of formerly marginalized scientific concepts. Blending interviews with SEEX leaders, the science consultants who worked on the films and Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) producer, Jeremy Latcham, this article blends a production economy perspective with critical analysis to better understand how the ideology of science circulates within the MCU and how its films are working to disrupt outdated notions of science and scientists.

The article presents LanguageCert USAL esPro as a suite of tests that has been developed recently with the aim of evaluating the language skills of non-native speakers who need to use Spanish for professional purposes. The author begins by attempting to examine the existing practice in the assessment of Spanish for specific purposes and then provides a detailed description and an analysis of the exam content and format. The article also highlights the test’s usefulness which results from its reliability, construct validity, authenticity, interactivity, impact and practicality; it does not neglect to mention the adaptive nature, flexibility and transparency of this exam as some of its essential characteristics.
