    A Preliminary Study of University Students' Collaborative Learning Behavior Patterns in the Context of Online Argumentation Le

    A Preliminary Study of University Students’ Collaborative Learning Behavior Patterns in the Context of Online Argumentation Learning Activities: The Role of Idea-Centered Collaborative Argumentation Instruction Ying-Tien Wu, Li-Jen Wang, and Teng-Yao Cheng [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Graduate Institute of Network Learning Technology, National Central University, Taiwan Abstract: Learners have more and more opportunities to encounter a variety of socio-scientific issues (SSIs) and they may have difficulties in collaborative argumentation on SSIs. Knowledge building is a theory about idea-centered collaborative knowledge innovation and creation. The application of idea-centered collaboration practice as emphasized in knowledge building may be helpful for facilitating students’ collaborative argumentation. To examine the perspective above, this study attempted to integrate idea-centered collaboration into argumentation practice. The participants were 48 university students and were randomly divided into experimental and control group (n=24 for both groups). The control group only received argumentation instruction, while the experimental group received explicit idea-centered collaborative argumentation (CA) instruction. This study found that two groups of students revealed different collaborative learning behavior patterns. It is also noted that the students in the experimental group benefited more in collaborative argumentation from the proper adaption of knowledge building and explicit idea-centered collaborative argumentation instruction. Introduction In the knowledge-based societies, learners have more and more opportunities to encounter a variety of social dilemmas coming with rapid development in science and technologies. These social dilemmas are often termed “Socio-scientific issues (SSIs)” which are controversial social issues that are generally ill-structured, open-ended authentic problems which have multiple solutions (Sadler, 2004; Sadler & Zeidler, 2005).

To provide a cost effective solution for the engine block in the Mustangs and Falcons that run the 351 Windsor engine in Group Nc Historic Touring Cars. These engines were only made in small numbers compared to other V8 engines, and now almost 50 years on, they are becoming very hard (almost impossible) to find in a serviceable condition. These standard early 351Windsor engine blocks have a common problem of cracking through the main bearing tunnel webbing and the mid 90s blocks commonly crack through the lifter valley area, so after spending a great deal of time trying to find a standard block, you then need to spend even more money and time to crack test these blocks and hope you have found a good one. The engine block we are proposing is a Ford replacement block (similar to the 302 replacement engine block used in Group N already), that is readily available at a reasonable cost both here in Australia and the USA.

  • Group NZ Technical Regulations

    Group NZ Technical Regulations

    GROUP NZ© NATIONAL RALLY CAR TECHNICAL REGULATIONS 2020 DEFINITION Group NZ is a MotorSport New Zealand Sanctioned Rally Category eligible for the NZRC. Since 2001 FIA Group N has been the premier category in the New Zealand National Rally Championship, although now this is no longer the case as vehicle manufacturers are no longer homologating appropriate models and the expense of maintaining compliance of the existing fleet, with an international category, has become prohibitive for many. This situation prompted a decision by the MotorSport NZ Rally Commission to ‘open up’ the eligibility rules and in so doing creating an ‘open category’ of cars that would essentially differ (from the Group N eligible models) through the fitment of locally sourced and non-homologated parts. The reasoning behind establishing Group NZ is to place a limitation on the ‘degree of modification’ so that cars can be classified, can compete on equal terms and potentially participate in international events held in New Zealand. The following regulations are intended to cater for these modified (Group N) cars, that have contested (or could have contested) a round of the New Zealand National Rally Championship. The following articles identify the areas of difference to those stipulated under FIA Group N, hence where there is no alternative specification detailed in these regulations, the Group N specification applies. It is expected that, cars in compliance with these technical regulations, will contest on an equal basis with the new generation of rally car being established, namely Group AP4 as well as the current FIA R5 category. Additionally, it is envisaged that this rally category will provide a ‘place to rally’ for these ‘older’ cars for the foreseeable future within the NZ National Rally Series.

    Tasmanian Motorsport Hall of Fame

    TASMANIAN MOTORSPORT HALL OF FAME DAVID “Skippy” PARSONS (Inducted 2021) David “Skippy” Parsons started his motorsport career as a teenager, on a trials bike in 1975. He had a natural talent and won the Tasmanian championship the following year. It was to be his first of an amazing nine consecutive championships through until 1985. David also contested three Australian championships, which in the 1970s and 1980s usually attracted fields of nearly 300 riders from all over Australia and overseas, finishing ninth in 1985. While excelling on two wheels, David was also starting to make a name for himself on four wheels, winning his class in club days in his father Graham’s Holden Torana SLR5000 L34. He also set a course record at the Highclere Hillclimb, in the State’s North-West, which stood for many years, so when Graham retired from racing in 1977, it was only natural David move up to touring cars. After several seasons, which included a class record at Symmons Plains, David upgraded to a Holden Commodore - and always looking for more power - he purchased a second-hand motor from John Harvey of the Holden Dealer Team in 1982. David finished fifth in the Symmons Plains round of the national championship before going on to record four top-five results to finish 12th in the championship and winning Rookie of the Year. His efforts didn’t go un-noticed and he was recruited by the Peter Jansen Cadbury Schweppes Team to race a Commodore at the Sandown 500 and Bathurst 1000 endurance events. David and Peter finished fourth in David’s first appearance at Mount Panorama, qualifying third on the grid the following year and running as high as second before a blown engine ended their day.
