The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically youngSérgio Sacani
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths ForwardLeonel Morgado
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.
Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...Leonel Morgado
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.
Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...Leonel Morgado
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.
Mending Clothing to Support Sustainable Fashion_CIMaR 2024.pdfSelcen Ozturkcan
Ozturkcan, S., Berndt, A., & Angelakis, A. (2024). Mending clothing to support sustainable fashion. Presented at the 31st Annual Conference by the Consortium for International Marketing Research (CIMaR), 10-13 Jun 2024, University of Gävle, Sweden.
When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.

• Fire hazard.
• Chemical hazards
• Electrical hazards
• Mechanical hazard
• Equipment and job related.
• Tool related.
• Area related.
54. Electrical Injuries
There are four main types of electrical injuries:
• Direct:
Electrocution or death due to electrical
shock
Electrical shock
Burns
• Indirect - Falls
OSHAX.org - The Unofficial Guide To the
OSHA
54
55. Shock Severity
• Severity of the shock
depends on:
–Path of current through
the body
–Amount of current
flowing through the body
(amps)
–Duration of the shocking
current through the body,
• LOW VOLTAGE DOES NOT
MEAN LOW HAZARD

58. Dangers of Electrical Shock
Currents above 10 mA* can
paralyze or “freeze” muscles.
Currents more than 75 mA can
cause a rapid, ineffective
heartbeat -- death will occur in
a few minutes unless a
defibrillator is used
75 mA is not much current – a
small power drill uses 30 times
as much
OSHAX.org - The Unofficial Guide To the
OSHA
58
* mA = milliampere = 1/1,000 of an ampere
Defibrillator in use

148. Classes of fire
• Fires are classified by the material
that is burning.
• Fires are designated as:
–Class A
–Class B
–Class C
–Class D 148
149. Classes of fire
• "Class A fire" means a fire involving
ordinary combustible materials such
as paper, wood, cloth, and some
rubber and plastic materials, leaving
an ash residue and burn with a
white to gray smoke.
149
150. Classes of fire
• "Class B fire" means a fire involving
flammable or combustible liquids,
flammable gases, greases and
similar materials, and some rubber
and plastic materials.
150
151. Classes of fire
• "Class C fire" means a fire involving
energized electrical equipment
where safety to the employee
requires the use of electrically
nonconductive extinguishing media.
151
152. Classes of fire
• "Class D fire" means a fire involving
combustible metals such as
magnesium, titanium, zirconium,
sodium, lithium and potassium.
152
153. Water (Class “A” Agent)
• Removes heat, best on Class “A” fires, best overall
agent.
• Very bad for Class “B” fires as it spreads the fuel.
• Very bad for Class “C” fires as it conducts
electricity.
• Disastrous on a Class “D” fire, may cause an
explosion.
153
154. Carbon dioxide (Class “BC” Agent)
• "Carbon dioxide" means a colorless, odorless,
electrically nonconductive inert gas that is a
medium for extinguishing fires by reducing the
concentration of oxygen or fuel vapor in the air to
the point where combustion is impossible.
154
155. Carbon dioxide (Class “BC” Agent)
• Displaces oxygen reducing its concentration to
below the level capable of supporting combustion.
• Good for Class “B” and “C” fires.
• Not good for Class “A” fires.
• Hazardous to humans.
155
156. Dry chemicals
• Ordinary dry chemical powder (Class “BC” Agent)-
– Siliconized Sodium Bicarbonate.
– Airborne powder interrupts the chemical chain
reaction.
– Does not smother, cool or remove fuel.
– Good for Class “B” and Class “C” fires.
156
157. Dry Chemicals
• Multipurpose dry chemical powder (Class “ABC”
Agent)
– Siliconized Ammonium Phosphate.
– Performs as above, plus the powder melts when it
contacts a hot surface, sealing the oxygen away from
the fuel.
– Good for Class “B” and Class “C” fires.
– Fair for Class “A” fires.
157
158. Foam (Class “AB” Agent)
–Water based detergent floats on surface of
burning liquids, excluding oxygen from the
fuel.
–Excellent cooling qualities, same as water.
–Not suitable for a Class “C” fire.
158
159. Dry powder (Class “D” Agent)
–Only for Class “D,” metal fires.
–Low velocity, sodium bicarbonate or
sand.
–Attempts to smother fire; however,
some metal fires will continue to burn
with no apparent source of oxygen.
