How well we pay attention while learning is influenced not only by external distractions like background noise but also by internal factors such as how interesting we find the material, according to a study recently […]
Although modern science has only been around for a few centuries, we’ve become quite adept at training students in the scientific method. But learning how to translate research insights into practical actions often isn’t part […]
Concordia researchers have developed a new 3D-printing technique that uses sound waves to directly print tiny structures onto soft polymers like silicone with far greater precision than before. The approach, called proximal sound printing, opens […]
New research has found that children in England with caring responsibilities are 35% less likely than their peers to reach the expected standard for reading, writing, and math by the end of primary school. The […]
The pay gap between men and women does not disappear when they leave university, even with a Ph.D. In fact, immediately after obtaining their doctorate, women already start with an average disadvantage of 171 euros […]
Measuring human movement with tracking devices on looser clothing is more accurate than on tight body suits or straps. This discovery by scientists at King’s College London could mark a potential breakthrough for a range […]
Drawing on an extensive survey of emerging battery chemistries and design innovations, researchers at the University of Sharjah are pointing to transformative technologies poised to meet the escalating energy demands of an increasingly electrified world.This […]
It’s often the worst part of many people’s day—bottlenecked, rush-hour traffic. When the daily commute backs up, drivers lose time, burn fuel and waste energy. Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Transportation Research […]
In a long-running collaboration with GE Aerospace, researchers at the University of Melbourne in Australia have been steadily working to improve the performance of high-pressure turbine (HPT) engines through computer simulations on leadership-class computing systems. […]
Housing instability, often invisible to schools until it begins to disrupt attendance, learning, or mental health, is a growing challenge for families with school-age children, according to new research. A policy scan led by USC […]
