1. Integrating Literature in Content Areas: Professional's Guide.

Author

Walley, Carl W. and Walley, Kate

Abstract

Based on the premise that viewing the curriculum holistically enriches the instructional practices of teachers and adds depth and meaning to children's school experiences, this guide is intended to: (1) encourage teachers who have doubts about using literature in their content area classes; (2) support those presently using literature to teach; and (3) share some of the joy that can be found in children's books. The guide offers practical suggestions for class activities and techniques to help classroom teachers blend the subject areas across the lines of time and disciplines--rather than treating each subject as an isolated cell, natural connections can be made among science, social studies, mathematics, art, and music. The guide stresses that it is language arts, however, that forms the catalyst binding all the content areas. After an introduction, chapters in the guide are: Literature in the Curriculum; Benefits of Literature for Teachers and Children; Enriching Textbooks through Literature; Using Literature Thematically; Writing and Literature in Content Areas; and Getting Started with Literature. Contains references. (NKA)

Abstract

Two dyes with only a two-atom change in the structure of the dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are studied. The structure of the dyes and the values for iodine binding of similar compounds have shown that the change in [V.sub.oc] is because of the difference in iodine binding at the site of the two-atom change.

Abstract

Recombination between injected electrons and iodine limits the photovoltage in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCS). We have recently suggested that many new dye molecules, intended to improve DSSCs, can accelerate this reaction, negating the expected improvement (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 2907). Here we study two dyes with only a'two-atom change in the structure, yet which give different V∞s. Using a range of measurements we show conclusively that the change in V∞ is due solely to the increase in the recombination rate. From the structure of the dyes, and literature values for iodine binding of similar compounds, we find that it is very likely that the change in V∞ is due solely to the difference in iodine binding at the site of the two-atom change. Using the large amount of literature on iodine complexation, we suggest structures for dyes that might show improved V∞. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
