In this paper we discuss how cognitive science may contribute to understanding the concepts of situatedness and situated play. While situatedness has become something of a catch-all term, it actually has several different meanings, ranging from “higher” social-cultural forms to “lower” sensori-motoric activities. We also discuss an often overlooked, but crucial aspect of situatedness, which is ...

A unique database was created that describes the methods used to allocate shares in nearly every major catch share fishery in the world. The main approaches used to allocate catch shares include: (i) auctions, (ii) equal allocation, (iii) historical catch records and (iv) vesselor gear-based rules. 54% of the major catch share fisheries in the world allocated the Total Allowable Catch (TAC) on ...

We give a self-contained treatment of Le and Habiro’s approach to the Jones function of a knot and Habiro’s cyclotomic form of the Ohtsuki invariant for manifolds obtained by surgery around a knot. On the way we reproduce a state sum formula of Garoufalidis and Le for the colored Jones function of a knot. As a corollary, we obtain bounds on the growth of coefficients in the Ohtsuki series for m...

Visual cues play important roles in sea turtle foraging behavior and likely influence their interactions with fishing gear. Altering these cues may be a useful strategy to reduce the incidental catch of sea turtles in various fisheries. We examined the potential effectiveness of 3 visual cues — shark shapes placed along the length of the gill net, illumination of nets by LED lights, and nets il...

Studentische Irrwege beim Erwerb von Fertigkeiten in Analyse und Entwurf von Softwaresystemen sind zeitraubend. Andererseits wirken Fehler verständnisfördernd. Dieser Beitrag beschreibt Erfahrungen mit dem selbstgesteckten Ziel einer Balance zwischen einerseits ausreichendem Raum für Irrwege und andererseits genügendem Halt durch wegweisende Instruktionen des Betreuers. Wir beschreiben vier sic...
