In fall 2019, the University of Wyoming (UW) Libraries launched an information and digital literacy badge certificate program in partnership with Ellbogen Center for Teaching Learning (ECTL), housed UW main branch. ECTL crafts programing provides support graduate students, staff, faculty who teach on our campus by employing instructional designers.The Information Digital Badge Certificate Progr...

Data have been collected and physical and statistical models have been constructed to estimate unknown occupational radiation doses among 90,000 members of the U.S. Radiologic Technologists cohort who responded to a baseline questionnaire during the mid-1980s. Since the availability of radiation dose data differed by calendar period, different models were developed and applied for years worked ...

We present the design of a new badge platform for facilitating interaction in large groups of people. We have built this device to be very flexible in order to host a wide variety of interactions in the areas where wearable and social computing converge, from game environments to meetings and conventions. This badge has both RF and IR communication, a 5x9 LED display capable of presenting graph...

Despite widespread interest in quality signals, a broad understanding of quality that incorporates information about signals used in a variety of contexts remains elusive. For example, relatively little is known about arbitrary signals of quality used during aggressive competition (badges of status). Recently, a new badge of status was found: black facial patterns in Polistes dominulus wasps. P...

Empirical evidence contained in open digital badges has the capability to change educational curricula, assessments, and priorities. Because badge data in educational, social media, and workforce contexts is publicly available, questions of privacy and ethics should be scrutinized. Due to change driven by digital transparency, ethical questions at the intersection of learning analytics and the ...

an extensive study was undertaken to investigate on the overall film badge service performance with which occupational radiation, exposures are reported in iran, the study involved the analysis of film badges exposed to x-and gamma rays and beta particles. for test exposures, x-rays between 60 and 140 kvpco-60 gamma radiation and sr-90 beta particles were used. the actual delivered dose equival...

In estimating the cancer mortality risk for radiation workers it is conventional to use data obtained from the populations exposed to radiation as a result of the atomic bomb blast in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. This A-bomb experience resulted in relatively high doses of radiation and short periods of exposure. The availability of systematic analyses of the mortality of workers at the Hanford plant...

Bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (BADGE)-based epoxy resin is one of the most widely used resins with an annual production amount several million tons. Compared all other legacy or emerging organic compounds, BADGE special due to its toxicity and high reactivity in environment. More more studies are available on analytical methods, occurrence, transformation toxicity. Here, we provided a comprehens...

We describe how recent advances in wearable sensing technology allow for unprecedented accuracy in studies of human behavior, particularly organizational behavior. We use one such platform, the Sociometric badge, to understand organizational behavior in two studies. In the first, we describe the collection of data over a period of one month in a German bank’s marketing division. We found that p...
