    The Micro-Paper: Towards cheaper, citable research ideas and conversations

    Full text link
    Academic, peer-reviewed short papers are a common way to present a late-breaking work to the academic community that outlines preliminary findings, research ideas, and novel conversations. By comparison, blogging or writing posts on social media are an unstructured and open way to discuss ideas and start new conversations. Both have limitations in the proliferation of research ideas. The short paper format relies on the conference and journal submission process while blogging does not operate within a structured format or set of expectations at all. However, at times the demand exists for late-breaking ideas and conversations to arise in a raw form or with urgency but should still be archived and recorded in a way that promotes citational honesty and integrity. To address this, I present: The Micro-Paper, as a micro-paper itself. The Micro-Paper is a small, cheap, accessible, digital document that is self-published and archived, akin to a pre-print of a short paper. This meta micro-paper discusses the context, goals, and considerations of micro-paper authoring.Comment: 2 pages, 1 page of references, 1 figur

    This is an addendum for a previously submitted IQP(Interactive Qualifying Project). The previous IQP, the Assessing the Learning of Students with Disabilities in Informal Education, created a reference matrix, known as the SMIRF (Suggestions Matrix Incorporating Results from Findings) for assessment in informal education. In order to increase its utility to educators who may reference it, however, a demonstration of its use was deemed necessary. This addendum provides examples of use based on a case study. By creating a set of example assessments while using the SMIRF, this addendum seeks to enhance the utility and applicability of the SMIRF matrix

    The COVID-19 pandemic forced state courts to more fully embrace electronic filing, access to forms, and remote hearings. As a result, individuals navigating the legal system during this transition had to rely on digital access to court forms. While the courts have been praised for their ability to adapt, the extent to which online court forms are accessible for individuals with disabilities remains an open question. In this preliminary study focused on the policy implications of inaccessible court forms, we evaluated the accessibility of PDF divorce forms used in 10 states. The study revealed that that none of the forms were completely accessible, suggesting that individuals with disabilities may find it challenging -- if not impossible -- to independently complete and fill out family law courts forms. This lack of accessibility is more than a technical issue, as it also raises concerns about “accessibility to justice.
