Paper-shuffler is now used to include people who have neither routine desk jobs nor are bureaucrats.

National Immunization Coverage Surveys(NICS) are implemented every 2 years by Immunization and Respiratory Infections Division(IRID) of the Public Health Agency of Canada(PHAC) in order to assess national coverage rates for routine childhood immunizations and for select adult immunizations during alternating years. Questions on knowledge, attitudes and beliefs(KAB) towards immunization were added to the Surveys from 1998 onwards. The purpose of these surveys is to monitor immunization coverage levels over a number of years; to assess up-to-date and on-time immunization coverage levels; to evaluate changes in KAB; and to monitor progress towards national immunization coverage goals.

Tous les 2 ans, la Division de l'immunisation et des infections respiratoires (DIIR) de l'Agence de la santé publique du Canada (ASPC) effectue une Enquête nationale sur la vaccination (ENV) pour évaluer, à l'échelle nationale, les taux de couverture dans le cas de la vaccination systématique des enfants et de l'immunisation de certains adultes durant cette période. Les Enquêtes nationales sur la vaccination effectuées depuis 1998 contiennent des questions sur les connaissances, les attitudes et les croyances (CAC) concernant l'immunisation. Le but de ces enquêtes est de surveiller les taux de couverture vaccinale au cours d'un certain nombre d'années, d'évaluer les taux de couverture vaccinale «à jour» et «conforme au calendrier», d'évaluer l'évolution des CAC et de constater les progrès accomplis vers l'atteinte des objectifs nationaux en matière de couverture vaccinale.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Training of Personnel
  • Internet and Telematics
  • Education Theory and Methods
CONT

Good teachers should expose their students to enough situations that the students will become curious enough to take learning into their own hands. In other words, the role of the teacher in a learning-by-doing scenario is to open up interesting problems and to provide tools for solving them when asked by the student to do so. Solving the problem should be its own reward, not getting a grade. The curriculum must be oriented towards, and satisfied with, the idea that students will learn what they need in order to accomplish goals. It is hoped that they will have become curious and acquired both oddball cases and routine scriptlets along the way.

Record 13 2001-09-27

English

Subject field(s)
  • Smelting (Metal Processing)
CONT

The LiMCA II system provides granulometric and total density information on the inclusion content of aluminum melts, in real time, based on an objective and user-independent method. It is ideally suited for applications in process development, process control, and quality assurance.

CONT

The LiMCA II system characterizes the cleanliness of a melt at time intervals of the order of 1 minute. It therefore monitors quasi-continuously, and in real time, the evolution of cleanliness along a cast, as a function of process parameters and melt-handling practices. The impact of furnace preparation, allowing practice, feedstock mix, settling time, and similar parameters on melt cleanliness, is easily determined. The effects of routine casting practices(metal level control, turbulence in the metal distributor) are directly observed as they take place. The time at which inclusion flushing from the holder starts at the end of a cast are determined for different sets of casting parameters, enabling the metallurgist to stop the cast at the right time to minimize the need for heel removal.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Fusion (Transformation des métaux)
CONT

Le LiMCA est un appareil pour mesurer les inclusions non métalliques dans l'aluminium en fusion.

CONT

Pour minimiser ces imperfections, la compagnie Alcan conjointement avec la firme Bomen de Québec, spécialisée en instruments industriels, ont mis au point le LiMCA (pour Liquid Metal Cleanliness Analyser), un appareil capable de détecter en moins d'une minute les moindres saletés présentes dans l'aluminium liquide à une concentration aussi faible qu'une particule par gramme de métal fondu!
