Maximizing Academic Success for Foster Care Students: A Trauma-Informed Approach
Children in foster care have experienced significant trauma due to the loss of primary attachment figures and the circumstances associated with that loss. Children who have suffered trauma generally present with cognitive, social, physical, and emotional vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities are often expressed in the P–12 academic setting through difficulties with behavioral and emotional self-regulation, academic functioning, and physical ailments and illness related to chronic stress-induced compromised immune systems. This results in academic failure for half of all children in care. Training in how to respond to children who have suffered trauma is essential to ensure that children are comfortable and feel secure in the classroom so that they can access their education. To that end, a framework to support children in P–12 settings who are particularly vulnerable to academic failure due to trauma is presented
Counselor Formation and Gatekeeping Best Practices
Counselor educators and supervisors contribute to students’ development while determining fitness for the profession. How we intervene can either help students work through internal conflicts that prevent them from embracing professional skills and dispositions or undermine that process. Facilitators will interactively engage participants in the application of a developmental framework that maximizes students’ dissonance in service to their counselor identity development process

Interaction potentials for soft and hard ellipsoids
Using results from colloid science we derive interaction potentials for
computer simulations of mixtures of soft or hard ellipsoids of arbitrary shape
and size. Our results are in many respects reminicent of potentials of the
Gay-Berne type but have a well-defined microscopic interpretation and no
adjustable parameters. Since our potentials require the calculation of similar
variables, the modification of existing simulation codes for Gay-Berne
potentials is straightforward. The computational performance should remain
unaffected.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figure

D.F.M. - Database Fotografico Macrosismico
Un archivio fotografico macrosismico. In realtĂ un complesso database che, attraverso la fotografia, ci
racconta la storia macrosismica dei grandi e medi terremoti avvenuti in Italia (e in prospettiva anche in
Europa) nel recente passato.
Il DFM (Database Fotografico Macrosismico) è un apparato fotografico correlato da un robusto commento
di metadati che permetterĂ ad esperti del settore ma anche ad una platea di non addetti ai lavori
di accedere ad un archivio specialistico tra i piĂą ricchi del panorama nazionale.
Pensato inizialmente come un tipico strumento di conservazione del materiale fotografico analogico altrimenti
in progressivo dissolvimento, il DFM è stato successivamente realizzato come un vero e proprio
database di immagini e contenuti che, nella catalogazione e descrizione, richiamano puntualmente le
linee guida della EMS98 (European Macroseismic Scale) ovvero il punto di riferimento della classificazione
macrosismica europea.
Il database (realizzato in MySql) sarĂ facilmente consultabile e navigabile on-line grazie alla creazione ad
hoc di un interfaccia web.
Migliaia di fotografie con immagini significative e dettagliate ci aiuteranno a districarci tra differenti
tipologie edilizie e livelli di vulnerabilitĂ . Tutto il materiale presente nel database, attraverso definite modalitĂ
di accesso, verrà messo a disposizione – gratuitamente – a quanti ne faranno richiesta
