Experiences with the Greenstone digital library software for international development
(2010)Greenstone is a versatile open source multilingual digital library environment, emerging from research on text compression within the New Zealand Digital Library Research Project in the Department of Computer Science at ... -
The experiences, perceptions and expectations of teachers, students and parents of the Community High School Model in Solomon Islands: A Case Study
(University of Waikato, 2011)This study considers students’ educational needs in the Solomon Islands’ education system. In particular it explores the experiences, perceptions and expectations of teachers, students and parents of the Community High ... -
Experiencing a mathematical problem-solving teaching approach: Opportunities to identify ambitious teaching practices
(MERGA, 2015)Learning to teach is a complex matter, and many different models of pre-service teacher education have been used to support novice teachers in preparation for the classroom. More recently there have been calls for embedding ... -
Experiencing and Learning from Entrepreneurial Failure
(University of Waikato, 2011)Entrepreneurship literature has long focused on stories of entrepreneurial success. However, in recent years consensus has begun to build around the importance of also studying failure in order to develop a more holistic ... -
Experiencing cultural tourism: Visitors at the Maori Arts and Crafts Institute, New Zealand
(Sage Publications, 2006)This study reports results derived from semistructured interviews with 40 visitors to the Maori Arts and Crafts Institute in Rotorua, New Zealand. The article discusses briefly the mode of data capture used and adopts an ... -
Experiencing “the Wrong Kind of Puberty”: Navigating Teenage Years with a Variation in Sex Characteristics
(MDPI AG, 2023)There are many different variations in sex characteristics, some of which have implications for how the body goes through puberty. This paper draws from critical disability studies and childhood and youth studies to ... -
Experiential learning: A narrative of a community dance field trip
(Wilf Malcolm Institute of Educational Research, UoW, Hamilton, New Zealand, 2015)In this paper, we offer a co-constructed narrative of experiential learning in the context of a community dance trip undertaken by tertiary students. We describe the unfolding experiences of a weekend field trip and reflect ... -
Experiential learning: A narrative of a community dance field trip.
(Faculty of Education, University of Waikato, 2007)In this paper we offer a co-constructed narrative of experiential learning in the context of a community dance trip undertaken by tertiary students. We describe the unfolding experiences of a weekend field trip and reflect ... -
Experiment databases: A new way to share, organize and learn from experiments
(Springer, 2012)Thousands of machine learning research papers contain extensive experimental comparisons. However, the details of those experiments are often lost after publication, making it impossible to reuse these experiments in further ... -
Experiment Databases: Creating a New Platform for Meta-Learning Research
(University of Porto, 2008)Many studies in machine learning try to investigate what makes an algorithm succeed or fail on certain datasets. However, the field is still evolving relatively quickly, and new algorithms, preprocessing methods, learning ... -
Experimental and Numerical Investigations of Skim Milk Powder Stickiness and Deposition Mechanisms
(University of Waikato, 2009)The particle gun method and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modelling was used to study stickiness and deposition mechanisms of skim milk powder in an impingement jet hitting a stainless steel plate. The particular focus ... -
Experimental characterization of the fracture properties of pultruded GFRP structural elements
(Elsevier BV, 2023)Pultruded Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRPs) are a class of novel composite materials with remarkable strength (comparable or even greater to that of steel) and resistance to environmental effects. However, the strongly ... -
Experimental designs for environmental valuation with choice-experiments: A Monte Carlo investigation
(Department of Economics, University of Waikato, 2005-12)We review the practice of experimental design in the environmental economics literature concerned with choice experiments. We then contrast this with advances in the field of experimental design and present a comparison ... -
Experimental determination of natural convection heat transfer coefficients in an attic shaped enclosure
(Elsevier, 2010)Heat transfer by natural convection in triangular enclosures is an area of significant importance in applications such as the design of greenhouses, attics and solar water heaters. However, given its significance to these ... -
Experimental evidence for radiative attachment in astrochemistry from electron attachment to NCCCCN
(Institute of Physics Publishing, Inc, 2006)Electron attachment to NCCCCN, dicyanoacetylene (2-butynedinitrile), has been observed. Metastable parent anions, NCCCCN_∗, with microsecond or longer lifetimes are formed close to 0 eV electron energy with a cross section ... -
Experimental Investigation of the Performance of a Building Integrated Thermal Solar Collector for Domestic Water Heating
(University of Waikato, 2013)The recent increased interest in renewable energy has created a need for research in the area of solar technology, particularly solar water heating collectors and systems. In this study a new design of a building integrated ... -
Experimental performance of water cooled building integrated photovoltaic/thermal solar collectors
(2008)The idea of integrating water cooled photovoltaic/thermal collectors into building structures (BIPVT collectors) to provide electrical and heat energy is an area that has received only limited attention. BIPVT collectors ... -
Experimental research on asset pricing
(Blackwell Publishing, 2013)This paper discusses some of the literature on asset market behavior. We do not intend this paper to be an exhaustive survey, but rather a review of some of the more influential results and to illustrate to the nonspecialist ... -
Experimentally induced intramammary infection with multiple strains of Streptococcus uberis
(Elsevier Health Sciences, 2009)The effect of infusing a mixture of 5 Streptococcus uberis strains into mammary quarters of 10 lactating cows was investigated. All 5 strains, which included 2 originally isolated from the dairy environment and 3 from ... -
Experimenting with ecosystem interaction networks in search of threshold potentials in real-world marine ecosystems
(Ecological Society of America, 2014)Thresholds profoundly affect our understanding and management of ecosystem dynamics, but we have yet to develop practical techniques to assess the risk that thresholds will be crossed. Combining ecological knowledge of ...
