This document describes a study that investigated university students' misconceptions about photosynthesis and respiration in plants using student-generated drawings and interviews. 156 university students aged 20-25 were asked to draw their understanding of photosynthesis and respiration in plants. Their drawings were analyzed and categorized based on five levels of understanding, from no drawing to comprehensive representation. Several common misconceptions were identified, including relationships between photosynthesis and respiration and plant nutrition. The drawing method, combined with interviews, provided insights into students' conceptual understandings and misconceptions about these abstract concepts.

EJT a New Journal by Patrick Grootaert
This document discusses plans to launch a new open access e-journal called the European Journal of Taxonomy (EJT) as a collaborative effort between natural history institutions. It notes that current taxonomic journals do not adequately accept or value descriptive taxonomic work. The EJT aims to set new standards in taxonomic publishing by being fully online, peer-reviewed, and integrating new technologies to increase accessibility, visibility, and links to other data resources. An organizational structure is proposed with a steering committee, management committee, editorial board, and associated group of institutions. The advantages for natural history institutions, authors, readers, and publishing staff are highlighted. A timeline for launching the EJT in 2011 is also presented.

Photosynthesis converts light energy to chemical energy in the form of sugars. It requires carbon dioxide, water, and the chlorophyll pigment, and produces oxygen as a byproduct. Drawings can demonstrate both understandings and misconceptions about photosynthesis, such as that it only occurs in leaves or involves the exchange of gases rather than the production of sugars.

Building development trajectories
Building development trajectories refers to the path being followed by the development of built environments. This path can be influenced, and change, depending on external factors such as economic climate, client preferences, legislation and fashion. It can also be intentional and have a specific direction and destination that is established and followed by government and users, owners, planners and designers of built environment.
The scale and nature of social, economic and environmental pressures, climate change and the limited resources to address these challenges mean that new built environment development models need to be developed. This paper describes, and reviews, a sustainable development model for the built environment that addresses these issues. The model aims to ensure that sustainability is not just a consideration in the development of built environments, but is integrated in way that defines and directs building development trajectories.
The theoretical basis of the model is described and a tool and methodology for application presented. The review and discussion of the model and tool is undertaken and recommendations for further research and development are made.
A Digitalization Partnership: Sharing human and material resources by Larissa...
This document summarizes key points about intellectual property rights (IPR) considerations for a digitalization partnership between three Belgian institutions - NBGB, RBINS, and RMCA - called Be-TAF. It discusses IPR best practices for openly licensing content, managing copyright risks for different date ranges of publications, and models for rights agreements. It also examines some controversial edge cases and considers scientists' views that publicly funded research results should be widely disseminated with proper citation. The conclusion is that while efforts will be made to avoid infringing content, some risk cannot be eliminated and a notice-and-takedown policy should be implemented to manage any issues.

This document discusses how research libraries are adapting to the digital era. It notes that libraries have changed more in the last decade than the last century as they shift resources from print to digital. Libraries are expected to support teaching, research, and scholarly communication. The document recommends that natural history institutions go fully digital with their publications for increased visibility, accessibility, and cost savings. It encourages the use of open access models and infrastructure like the Directory of Open Access Journals to make publications more discoverable.
Open science and scholarly publishing practices by Daphne Duin
The document discusses open science and scholarly publishing practices. It defines open science as making research transparent and sharing data, methods, and conclusions openly. Open science includes open data, open access, open notebooks, and open source. Its goals are to increase return on investment in research, accelerate dissemination of results, improve rigor and integrity, enable new discoveries through data reuse, and enhance learning and public engagement. However, open science also presents challenges for publishing workflows, intellectual property, and ethics. Alternative metrics, enhanced publications, and platforms like Scratchpads can help promote open science while addressing these challenges.
