Presentation / Conference Contribution
Shanker, T.-A., & Zioupos, P. (2017, September). Can vibration statistics of an idealised sine wave be used to examine fatigue properties of porcine trabecular bone?. Presented at HRV2017: 52nd Human Response to Vibration Conference & Workshop, Shrivenham, UK

Fatigue testing on trabecular bone has been performed throughout the years, the data contained could be of use to researchers attempting to find a qualitative link between whole-body vibration and spinal damage. 10 porcine trabecular cores were testi...

What Could Replace the Phonics Screening Check during the Early Years of Reading Development? (2017)
Journal Article
Glazzard, J. (2017). What Could Replace the Phonics Screening Check during the Early Years of Reading Development?. Forum for Promoting 3-19 Comprehensive Education, 59(2), 175-182. https://doi.org/10.15730/forum.2017.59.2.175

This article argues that the phonics screening check, introduced in England in 2012, is not fit for purpose. It is a test of children’s ability to decode words rather than an assessment of their reading skills. Whilst this assessment may, to some ext...
