Collaborative projects are commonplace in computing education. They typically enable students to gain experience building software in teams, equipping them with the teamwork skills they need to be competitive in the labour market. However, students often need encouragement to reflect upon and synthesise their experience to attain the most learning. Peer evaluation offers one such approach, but the conditions which facilitate effective peer evaluation have not yet been established. This paper seeks to provide insight into student experiences with peer evaluation. This builds upon a prior qualitative study, analysing quantitative data collected through a questionnaire taken by undergraduate students on a collaborate digital game development module. An exploratory factor analysis identifies seven dimensions of variance in the student experience: perceived impact; arbitrary influence; inconsistency; team cohesiveness; assessment reward; ease; as well as professionalism. Correlation analysis suggests some factors such as arbitrary influence, team cohesion, assessment pressure, and professionalism are associated with attained learning, whilst factors such as inconsistency and onerousness are not. This paper defines a conceptual framework, suggesting considerations for educators adopting peer evaluation. Expanding the framework and validating it across different demographics, contexts, and project types are suggested as avenues for further investigation.

openaire: EC/H2020/824143/EU//MAX CP2K is an open source electronic structure and molecular dynamics software package to perform atomistic simulations of solid-state, liquid, molecular, and biological systems. It is especially aimed at massively parallel and linear-scaling electronic structure methods and state-of-the-art ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. Excellent performance for electronic structure calculations is achieved using novel algorithms implemented for modern high-performance computing systems. This review revisits the main capabilities of CP2K to perform efficient and accurate electronic structure simulations. The emphasis is put on density functional theory and multiple post-Hartree-Fock methods using the Gaussian and plane wave approach and its augmented all-electron extension.

Several contemporary philosophers have argued that moral flaws in an artwork, such as an artwork’s presenting an immoral perspective as commendable, constitute aesthetic flaws, i.e., that the presence of moral flaws in an artwork diminish its aesthetic value. The arguments put forth to support this position fail, or so I argue, as several objections to them are raised and analyzed. Once the ground has been cleared of moralist concerns, I propose some arguments for the value of immoral art.

This short invited chapter, illustrated, considers changes in our experience of the city brought about by the use of personal, portable, location-sensitive media devices.\ud \ud The project to which this relates is ’Ere be Dragons, a locative media technology project concerned with the relationship between art, technology and health. Funded by Wellcome Trust, it has been exhibited around the world and discussed in articles, book chapters and conference papers.\ud \ud Heartlands, the most recent version of the project, won First Prize at the Nokia Ubimedia award, chosen out of 140 submissions from around the world. The prize is for innovation in the field of pervasive media. Active Ingredient developed it with the Mixed Reality Lab, University of Nottingham from the original project headed by the Lansdown Centre for Electronic Arts.
