Have fun doing it. Doctoral thesis Title: Codoped titanium dioxide thin-films for visible light fueled applications: fabrication, characterization, and optimization. Supervisor: Prof. My Ali El Khakani (INRS-EMT) Abstract: Radio-frequency magnetron sputtering was used to synthesize visible-light active nanoscale TiO2:N films. This introduction of NO species formed new VBM-straddling Eg states, lowering the effective optical-gap from 3.2 eV to values as low as 2.2 eV, while maintaining desired crystallinity. Un- fortunately, VO-defect density was seen to increase as a result of this, leading to decreased photocharge lifetimes. To remedy this, an acceptor-donor charge passivated TiO2:WN were developed and synthe- sized. The optimized codoped films were shown to have increased VO formation energies, improved photocharge lifetimes, and decreased lattice strain. The improvement of these properties directly re- sulted in TiO2:WN photoanodes showing a ∼300 % increase in 1.5AM-light driven electro-photocatalytic degradation rates of real-life pollutants when compared to pristene TiO2.

A more focused examination of early childhood education was undertaken. Through the exploration of knowledge, attitudes and perceptions held by high school and college advisors this study was intending to identify the kind of information presented to parents and students as they considered post-secondary options. Despite considerable research in the area of early child development, and the positive implications of high quality education on learning, the profession of early childhood education continues to suffer from an image problem.

  • Libraries of La Pocatière: French Immersion Programs
    Libraries of La Pocatière: French Immersion Programs Patricia S. Kuntz © 2005 La Pocatière 2 Libraries of La Pocatière: French Immersion Programs Each summer Canadian institutions host Canadian students and teachers in one of several French immersion programs. In 1967, the Council of Ministers of Education (CMEC 2004) formed to act on educational matters of mutual interest. One concern was the lack of French speakers. French proficiency of students, teachers of French, and federal employees became a particular concern. Consequently, summer immersion programs were funded for high school and college students along with teachers of French. Some applicants received scholarships while others paid the full tuition themselves. Initially, programs were two or three weeks long; however, in the 1990s, most funded programs were five weeks of language instruction or four weeks of pedagogical training. All students and staff signed a contract stating that they would speak (read, listen, write) only in French since the Canadian ministers were trying to increase the number of speakers with an advanced- to superior-level proficiency to accommodate the demands of their bi-lingual nation. Since most of the immersion programs were situated in a Francophone community in one of the provinces, the majority of French summer immersion programs were held in Quebec (Kuntz & Michaels 2001). Among the Quebec programs, one stands out for its educational commitment. The parish of La Pocatière de Sainte-Anne has been a site of schooling since 1827. Two priests, Charles- François Painchaud (1782-1838) and François Pilote (1811-1886) founded respectively the Collège de Sainte-Anne (1827) et l’École d’Agriculture (1859 Agriculture School [now known as the Institut technologie agroalimentaire].
