Pedagogic evaluation, computational performance and orientations to mathematics: a study of the constitution of Grade 10 mathematics in two secondary schools by Jaffer, Shaheeda

“…The analysis reveals the following: (1) the commonly used descriptions of evaluative criteria as explicit/implicit are analytically blunt and consequently mask the complexity of criteria operative in pedagogic contexts; (2) differences as well as strong similarities in the functioning of evaluation and, therefore, differences and similarities in what is constituted as mathematics are evident in pedagogic situations differentiated with respect to social class; (3) an orientation to mathematics that constitutes mathematics as computations on the typographical elements of mathematical expressions is common to pedagogic situations involving learners from both upper-middle-class/elite families and working-class families; and (4) greater variation and inter-connectedness in computational resources is realised in pedagogic situations involving learners from upper-middle-class/elite families than in those involving learners from working-class families, where computational resources are relatively restricted and weakly connected. …”

Characterisation of a public T cell clonotype enriched in m.tb infected individuals who do not progress to tuberculosis by Matela, Motshidisi

“…We recently completed a bulk T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing screen and observed that frequencies of a particular donor-unrestricted T cell (DURT) clone were higher in healthy, M.tb infected individuals who controlled infection (controllers), than individuals who progressed to tuberculosis (TB) (progressors). This clone expresses a common complementarity-determining region 3 (CDR3) α sequence, which we termed “kiif.tb”. …”
