The U.S

In 2015, the U.S. Congress passed the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) that included provisions to support gifted and talented learners. The U.S. Department of Education’s Consolidated State Plan template only required states to directly address the inclusion of gifted education under Title II, Part A: Supporting Effective Instruction (Section 2101(d)(2)(J)). We examined the inclusion of gifted education in the Title II section of all 52 submitted ESSA plans. Of the approved plans, 16 states explicitly addressed how educators would be supported in identifying and providing gifted learners with effective instruction, and 15 states generally described educator support to meet the needs of multiple groups of students (including gifted). Three of the approved state plans did not mention support for gifted education in their Title II responses. Gifted education stakeholders must be familiar with their state’s plan and understand how Title II can fund professional development for gifted education.

The Scandal in Academia [32] [33] [34] [35] is an extended fictional case-study intended for use as a teaching and discussion aid for educational practitioners looking to introduce elements of computer ethics into their curricula. Inspired by Epstein [17] [18] it is a full-cycle scenario involving many individuals which touches upon the complexity and interrelations of modern computer ethics. It has been trailed and evaluated as a teaching tool by the authors [36] and with multiple groups since then. However its utility as a general resource is limited without the academic context that supports deeper investigation of the material. It is to address this issue that the authors offer this commentary on the Scandal, with a focus on the ninth and tenth newspaper items presented within. Specifically these are Culture of Fear and Nepotism at University and Witch-Hunts at the University - IT Crackdown Causes Criticisms.

In the initialization of the traditional k-harmonic means clustering, the initial centers are generated randomly and its number is equal to the number of clusters. Although the k-harmonic means clustering is insensitive to the initial centers, this initialization method cannot improve clustering performance. In this paper, a novel k-harmonic means clustering based on multiple initial centers is proposed. The number of the initial centers is more than the number of clusters in this new method. The new method with multiple initial centers can divide the whole data set into multiple groups and combine these groups into the final solution. Experiments show that the presented algorithm can increase the better clustering accuracies than the traditional k-means and k-harmonic methods.

Total Construction Cost

Today’s Navy ships are some of the most complex vessels being manufactured. As such, there are a multitude of stakeholders and requirements that must be satisfied through all phases of construction. Manufacturing issues invariably arise and must be tracked from initial documenting through to resolution. Given the number and types of stakeholders involved in the manufacturing process, this can lead to information silos with multiple groups having differing views into each other’s data (if they have a view at all). While the shipyards have their internal quality (lien) management systems, the Navy system of record for outstanding issues is the Technical Support Maintenance (TSM) system. Lacking an efficient interface between TSM and the shipbuilders organic lien management systems and a mobile component that can be taken to the ship , the TSM system is cumbersome and is yet another source of siloed information. Additionally, once a manufacturing issue has reached the TSM system there can be a significant dollar value attached to resolution. Resolving issues once they have reached the Navy’s system of record can extend production schedules to the right and significantly impact total construction cost and delivery of the product and the value proposition of a program.
