Gamification in design of educational games : design and prototyping of a web-based educational game by Loh, En Liang

“…With a growing importance of developing educational applications, this study attempts to assess the possibility of applying gamification in the development of an educational game, surveying processes and factors behind gamification and traditional software development to develop a new approach to developing educational games, improving the quality of educational games in the market. |The first half covers a study which attempts to unify material from various domains, including pedagogy, gamification, game design and UX to define a theoretical framework that unifies several materials and frameworks from the domains of pedagogy, psychology, gamification, game design and HCI, which game designers, developers, as well as educational researchers and practitioners can refer to. | The next half of the report documents the development of an application on Unity that extends the functionality of an existing web-based Digital Asset Management System as a first step to provide Platform-as-a-Service support for educational game development.…”

Mycorrhizal infection and foliar phosphorus content of seedlings of three dipterocarp species growing in a selectively logged forest and a forest plantation by Lee, S.S., Lim, K.L.

“…Mycorrhizal infection levels were high-83.7% for Shorea bracteolata and 95.0% for S. leprosula at site A, and 77.8% for S. leprosula and 86.3% for S. curtisii at site B. The seedlings all had similar foliar phosphorus contents although available soil phosphorus at site B was half that at site A. …”

Synthesis of TiO2 hollow nanofibers by co-axial electrospinning and its superior lithium storage capability in full-cell assembly with olivine phosphate by Zhang, Xiang, Aravindan, Vanchiappan, Kumar, Palaniswamy Suresh, Liu, Huihui, Jayaraman, Sundaramurthy, Ramakrishna, Seeram, Madhavi, Srinivasan

“…We report the formation and extraordinary Li-storage properties of TiO2 hollow nanofibers by co-axial electrospinning in both half-cell and full-cell configurations. Li-insertion properties are first evaluated as anode in half-cell configuration (Li/TiO2 hollow nanofibers) and found reversible insertion of ~0.45 moles are feasible at current density of 100 mA g–1. …”

Reflection and refraction of SH waves at a combined interface by Fan, Hui, Long, Jianmin

“…In the present paper, we investigated the reflection and refraction of SH waves at a non-ideal interface between two elastic half-spaces. By modelling the non-ideal interface as two thin membranes (in the scope of surface/interfacial elasticity) and a layer of springs between the two membranes, we established a combined model for the non-ideal interface. …”

Aging-resistant breakdown performance of polypropylene nanodielectrics. by Azmi, Aizat, Lau, Kwan Yiew, Tan, Chee Wei, Ayop, Razman, Kuan, Yong Ching, Alun Vaughan, Alun Vaughan

“…Meanwhile, aging pure PP in circulating air causes the breakdown performance to reduce by as much as 29%, due to both structural and chemical changes within the material. In contrast, all the nanodielectrics experience much less detrimental effects on the breakdown performance even after thermo-oxidative aging, with the most substantial reduction being almost half that of the pure PP. …”
