Diversity array technology (DArT) is a high-throughput marker system that does not require sequence information. DArT arrays have been developed for chickpea, pigeonpea, and groundnut comprising 15,360 clones each. DArT markers showed 35% and 9% polymorphism in chickpea and pigeonpea mapping populations, but are not cost-effective for detecting variation in cultivated germplasm. DArT may be useful for introgressing segments from wild species into elite varieties, as seen with introgressing resistance genes from C. platycarpus into pigeonpea. Next-generation sequencing has also been used to develop SSR markers for trait mapping in these

Protecting the Privacy of the Network – Using P4 to Prototype and Extend Netw...Open-NFP
o protect the privacy of sensitive application data, we encrypt it before sending it over networks. However, we do not treat sensitive information about the network in the same way. Instead, headers are sent in plain text and leak sensitive information about the network – especially valid host addresses, type of service markings. In our research, we are developing a protocol to also encrypt Layer 3 headers. Using P4, we are able to rapidly stand up and prototype our proposed solution in real code running across real devices. In this webinar, I will introduce our approach and how we used and extended P4 functionality to stand up a prototype.

Course description
This is an introductory course for students looking to establish a competence in international politics and international theory. This course examines in detail a wide range of issues, including: the bedeviling role of insurgencies, interstate and civil wars, terrorism, international efforts to contain violent conflict, military interventions, human rights, the problem of economic development, the functioning and effectiveness of international institutions, and the global environment. While theory will be touched on at some points, this course uses International Relations theory as a jumping off point to approach real-world problems and puzzles Those wishing to immerse themselves more deeply in the International Relations theory and academic development are encouraged to build on the understanding gained in this course by taking one of the theory seminars offered by the department.
Course Aims and Objectives
This course aims: … to introduce students to the study of International Politics, with an emphasis on historicizing current issues, ideas, and institutions in international affairs; … to encourage students to ask critical questions about the way in which issues and identities are represented by political elites, scholars, and the media; … to help students establish links between the ways we think (theory) about international affairs and their day--‐to--‐ day lives (practice) in a thoroughly, but unequally, globalized world; … to guide students in developing their own analyses of world politics --‐ to articulate their ideas in a coherent manner, supported by empirical evidence and consistent argument.
On completion of this class, students should be able:
…to demonstrate general knowledge of world politics and the connections between “the
World out there” and their own lives; … to identify key concepts and institutions of international affairs and how they have developed historically; … to describe and debate, in depth, the features of particular case studies examined in the class; … to gather, and critically evaluate, material from media, government and other sources of information; … to organize and synthesize large amounts of often contradictory and uneven source material; … to state and justify their opinions and analyses of world politics.
Grading

Course Description:
People in America often consider race in stark black and white terms. In part, this is because African
Americans and white Americans have particular and distinct histories that give blackness and whiteness
unique status in the United States. However, American racial formations are organized along a complex
matrix that involves much more than these two categories account for. In this class, we will explore the
entire construction of the idea of race. We will examine the cultural and political-economic construction
of race in the United States and analyze how races are reproduced, maintained, and challenged. How has
race been defined in relation to notions of color, race, class, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, nation, language,
and non-white perspectives? We will consider how racial groups that are neither black nor white, like
Asians, Latinos, and multiracial peoples, are fundamentally involved in the ways race, identity, and power
are understood and mobilized in America. Furthermore, we will consider how gender, sexuality, class,
and nationality are all involved in shaping ideas of race so that all racial categories, black, white and
otherwise, are formed by and through ideas of gender, sexuality, class and nationality.
LSP 200 Learning Outcom es:
1. By the end of this class, students will identify key debates in the history of multiculturalism. As
students understand the debates and values of multiculturalism in theory, they will be able to
apply them beyond the classroom into practice by developing and using reasonable guidelines for
prioritizing important values – including respect for differences, equality, and social justice.
2. Through the use of self-reflection and critical analysis, students will be able to identify and
understand their place in their own historical context. They will also be able to articulate
assumptions and explore connections to alternative interpretations and perspectives on history
and culture other than their own.

This document describes a course called Commercial & Technical Spanish (SPA 302) taught by Francisco Salgado-Robles. The course objectives are to expose students to basic business concepts in the Spanish-speaking world and develop Spanish proficiency. The course components include online modules, in-class activities focused on communication, and a final project. The course was redesigned with a grant from the A&S-CELT Course Redesign Institute.
This document discusses a study on the communication strategies used by non-native Spanish speakers in online chat conversations. The study involved 18 participants split into two groups - one experimental group of non-native Spanish speakers chatting with each other, and one control group of non-native Spanish speakers chatting with a native Spanish speaker. Over 15 chat sessions, the researchers analyzed which communication strategies the non-native speakers used, how their strategies differed between chatting with other non-natives versus a native, and the effectiveness of different strategies. Previous research on communication strategy use in computer-mediated communication was also reviewed.
The document discusses literature on second language acquisition and computer-assisted language learning. It covers the role of computer-mediated communication technologies in teaching foreign languages, competing theories of SLA and CALL, categories of CMC technologies including wired and wireless connectivity, asynchronous and synchronous CMC, and task-based language instruction. The research indicates that CALL can positively impact sociocultural issues, affect, language awareness, language production, and language skills.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
