The approaches to management of part-time lecturing staff in the United Kingdom's further education (FE) colleges were examined in a study that included the following research activities: review of relevant publications and Further Education Funding Council (FEFC) statistics; postal survey of 454 FE colleges in England and Wales that elicited 67 responses (response rate, 15%); visits to 8 colleges for in-depth interviews with managers and part-time teaching staff; a survey of all 508 part-time teaching staff in the 8 case study colleges; and visits to 2 agencies providing teaching staff to colleges. The study established that FE colleges cannot realistically expect part-time staff to fulfill the range of nonteaching duties typically expected of full-time staff. By the part-time staff members' own admission, their commitment to staff development, attendance at staff and team meetings, and extracurricular support for students were significantly lower than even college managers perceived. Six recommendations for improving management of part-time faculty were proposed. (Ten tables/figures and 17 references are included. Appended are the following: 28 figures summarizing the results of the part-timers and college surveys; 3 tables detailing lecturing staff mode and teacher training qualifications; overview of the FEFC cost-benefit analysis system for staff development activities; and model induction checklist.)

Federal Highway Administration Video VH-434 It's About Time... Traffic Signal Management: Cost Effective Street Capacity and Safety This video demonstrates the benefits of maintaining current, optimized and coordinated traffic signal timing plans, and investing resources in traffic signal systems. The video explains how to use existing traffic signal equipment already in place, combined with available tools, techniques, and in some cases improved equipment, to more efficiently utilize city streets and signal systems. Examples document reduced travel time, delay and fuel consumption with very high benefit to cost ratios. The video describes the types and uses of signal systems, techniques used to optimize the signal system, and how to implement and monitor signal timing plans, including staffing and cost issues. If signals are correctly managed, benefits can include: reduced emissions, fuel consumption, traffic congestion, aggressive driving behavior, and severe accidents; postponed or eliminated construction of additional capacity; and time savings for commercial and emergency vehicles, buses and the public.

Highly effective employment of military force at the operational level will require greater levels of synchronization and harmonization to maximize economy of force and thus combat potential. The evolution of Operational Command and Control (C2) will remain, and become increasingly so, the primary enabler for U.S. joint military operations to accomplish this task. The most effective strategy to optimize this operational function is by increasing the speed of the operational commander's decision-making process by compressing the decision-making cycle. Factor Time must be manipulated and exploited. This paper seeks to determine if the emerging field of Knowledge Management (KM) can successfully apply a three-pronged approach (Knowledge Transfer Systems, Systems Shaping, and Complex Adaptive System Analysis) which can effect this needed change. While emphasizing human-centricity, KM's technological applications are simply tools created to increase human capacity. If this holistic approach is possible, and significant improvement is realized, it will be incumbent upon the commander to find ways to fully exploit this improved capability. As history has shown, superior C2 structures can achieve battle-space domination.

This thesis examines whether or not the management of time is a problem within battalion task force tactical operations. Analysis of data collected at the National Training Center is used to isolate areas that are symptomatic of time management deficiencies and to establish that a problem of managing exists within task force operations. This study establishes that time management is a problem and that current doctrinal references offer incomplete time management guidance. This study then suggests a variety of techniques and procedures to improve the problem. This study concludes time can be better managed within task force operations. Comments generated by observer controllers, ideas presented in contemporary literature and the experiences of the author are melded together to present a philosophy to illustrate how to better manage time.

A survey of 18 students in Executive Refresher Course 76-3 (PM's, Deputy PM'S, and others at GS-15/Colonel level or higher) at the Defense Systems Management College was conducted to determine if project managers have difficulty in the management of their time, how many hours they averaged at their job each day, and the distribution of their time with respect to various time consumers. Results of the survey revealed that two-thirds of the PM's did not have enough time to adequately perform their management duties, were spending 12 hours a day at work, and took home an average of over one and a half hours worth of work each night. Time manangement principles that were developed from a review of related research were given an abbreviated test among 11 students of Program Managers Course 76-2 at the Defense Systems Management College. The results of the survey of the students who responded were unanimous in their conclusion that the principles were helpful in managing their time and thought that they would be helpful to a project manager. It can be concluded from the study that project managers have difficulty in managing their time and that although neglected, time management should be taught to project managers so as to preclude spending an inordinate amount of time to accomplish their job. An understanding and use of the time management principles delineated in the study should allow the manager to make much more effective use of his available time. (Author)

Project Based Learning (PBL) is a pedagogical approach that seeks to provide Year 7 pupils with independent and group learning skills to meet both the needs of the Year 7 curriculum as well as support their learning in future stages of their education. It particularly aims to improve their engagement in learning as well as practical literacy skills. This trial evaluates a specific type of PBL known as "Learning through REAL Projects", developed by the Innovation Unit--an independent social enterprise that aims to improve public sector services. A year long pilot project in 2013/2014 with eight schools (763 pupils) established the feasibility of a main trial. It provided the opportunity to develop the intervention and test the research procedures. The results contained in this report relate to a randomised controlled trial that took place between September 2014 and April 2016. Twelve intervention schools (2,101 pupils) and 12 control schools (1,973 pupils) were involved in the trial. REAL projects was delivered by teachers, supported in many instances by teaching assistants (TAs), with further support from senior leadership colleagues. It was delivered for a year in the intervention schools with a relatively large proportion of timetabled teaching (varying between 20% and 50%). In almost all cases it was delivered to mixed-ability Year 7 classes. The intervention used structured cross-subject "REAL Projects" planned by the delivery teachers who were supported by Classroom Coaches from the Innovation Unit. Schools were also supported by Leadership Coaches. REAL Projects are driven by an "essential question" which has significant educational content. The projects encouraged pupils to create an "excellent" product through drafting and redrafting and then to exhibit their work to an "authentic" audience. Visits were made to intervention schools at two time points and consisted of lesson observations, interviews, and focus groups with school leadership, project leads, class teachers, and pupils. Two case studies were also conducted in schools that it was agreed delivered the intervention well. Key conclusions are as follows: (1) Adopting PBL had no clear impact on either literacy (as measured by the Progress in English assessment) or student engagement with school and learning; (2) The impact evaluation indicated that PBL may have had a negative impact on the literacy attainment of pupils entitled to free school meals. However, as no negative impact was found for low-attaining pupils, considerable caution should be applied to this finding; (3) The amount of data lost from the project (schools dropping out and lost to follow-up) particularly from the intervention schools, as well as the adoption of PBL or similar approaches by a number of control group schools, further limits the strength of any impact finding; (4) From our observations and feedback from schools, we found that PBL was considered to be worthwhile and may enhance pupils' skills including oracy, communication, teamwork, and self-directed study skills; and (5) PBL was generally delivered with fidelity but requires substantial management support and organisational change. The Innovation Unit training and support programme for teachers and school leadership was found to be effective in supporting this intervention. Overall, the findings have low security. The trial was designed as a two-armed randomised controlled trial with schools being allocated to intervention or control groups. It was set up as an efficacy trial which aimed to test if the intervention can succeed under ideal conditions. However, 47% of the pupils in the intervention and 16% in the control group were not included in the final analysis. Therefore there were some potentially important differences in characteristics between the intervention and control groups. This undermines the security of the result. The trial results did not find that the PBL programme had an impact either on the pupils' literacy performance (as measured by Progress in English 12 tests), engagement, or attendance. The analysis did find a statistically significant negative impact on students eligible for free school meals (FSM), however no negative impact was found for lower-attaining pupils more generally, which makes it difficult to hypothesise why PBL might negatively impact FSM pupils specifically. This adds to the uncertainty of the finding.

Educational administrators' concern with planning and time management results from the fragmentation of their daily activities, which research has documented, and their consequent search for order and control. Time is important because its scarcity affects productivity and its use has social-psychological effects on staffs' perceptions of administrators' priorities. Time management can increase administrative effectiveness through increased control of time and through the wiser use of time that is achieved by setting priorities. Administrators should begin managing their time by keeping a log of their daily activities and then analyzing what priorities can be inferred from the log, how results relate to time spent on activities, what activities were delegated, and to what extent others were involved in particular activities. The log will reveal administrators as doers of tasks rather than managers or leaders. Administrators need to become leaders, which may involve doing less. To do this they should determine priorities, on which in turn they should base written plans that include objectives, strategies, and time guidelines. In setting priorities, administrators should distinguish between the few vital activities and the many trivial ones. (Author/RW)

Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (sUAVs), typically 55 lbs and below, are envisioned to play a major role in surveilling critical assets, collecting important information, and delivering goods. Large scale small UAV operations are expected to happen in low altitude airspace in the near future. Many static and dynamic constraints exist in low altitude airspace because of manned aircraft or helicopter activities, various wind conditions, restricted airspace, terrain and man-made buildings, and conflict-avoidance among sUAVs. High sensitivity and high maneuverability are unique characteristics of sUAVs that bring challenges to effective system evaluations and mandate such a simulation platform different from existing simulations that were built for manned air traffic system and large unmanned fixed aircraft. NASA's Unmanned aircraft system Traffic Management (UTM) research initiative focuses on enabling safe and efficient sUAV operations in the future. In order to help define requirements and policies for a safe and efficient UTM system to accommodate a large amount of sUAV operations, it is necessary to develop a fast-time simulation platform that can effectively evaluate requirements, policies, and concepts in a close-to-reality environment. This work analyzed the impacts of some key factors including aforementioned sUAV's characteristics and demonstrated the importance of these factors in a successful UTM fast-time simulation platform.
