In response to a call for PBLL to address language learners’ 21st-century needs, the present chapter showcases two examples of technology-assisted PBLL (TAPBLL) carried out in 100- and 300-level Spanish courses at a regional public university in the eastern United States. The TAPBLL using Generative AI chatbots in the lower-division Spanish course exemplified how content could be foregrounded in foreign language (FL) courses that might otherwise tend to overemphasize grammar. The TAPBLL using collaborative online international learning as a virtual exchange project in an (or the) upper-division course exemplifies how content can be prioritized early and often through projects that address learners’ 21st-century needs. When woven throughout the FL curriculum, TAPBLL can successfully build learners’ bilingualism, digital literacies, and cultural competence while at the same time working to counteract decreasing FL enrollments and imprudent narratives concerning the inapplicability of FL instruction to learners’ future academic and career goals.

We use SrTiO3/Si as a model system to elucidate the effect of the interface on ferroelectric behavior in epitaxial oxide films on silicon. Using both first-principles computations and synchrotron x-ray diffraction measurements, we show that structurally imposed boundary conditions at the interface stabilize a fixed (pinned) polarization in the film but inhibit ferroelectric switching. We demonstrate that the interface chemistry responsible for these phenomena is general to epitaxial silicon-oxide interfaces, impacting on the design of silicon-based functional oxide devices. © 2026 by World Scientific Publishing Co.

Let A be a Noetherian local ring with canonical module KA. We characterize A when KA is a torsionless, reflexive, or q-torsionfree module for an integer q ≥ 3. If A is a Cohen–Macaulay ring, H.-B. Foxby proved in 1974 that the A-module KA is q-torsionfree if and only if the ring A is q-Gorenstein. With mild assumptions, we provide a generalization of Foxby’s result to arbitrary Noetherian local rings admitting the canonical module. In particular, since the reflexivity of the canonical module is closely related to the ring being Gorenstein in low codimension, we also explore quasinormal rings, introduced by W. V. Vasconcelos. We provide several examples as well. ©2025 Walter de Gruyter GmbH,Berlin/Boston.

A degree of a module M is a numerical measure of information carried by M. We highlight some of Vasconcelos’ outstanding contributions to the theory of degrees, bridging commutative algebra and computational algebra. We present several degrees he introduced and developed, including arithmetic degree, jdeg, homological degree, cohomological degrees, canonical degree, and bicanonical degree. For the canonical and bicanonical degrees, we discuss recent developments motivated by our joint works [25, 19, 9]. ©2025 Walter de Gruyter GmbH,Berlin/Boston.

Recent research proposes that arts-integrated teaching approaches in business education can nurture students' aesthetic sensitivity and emotional capacities, such as self-awareness and empathy. In this chapter, we examine the pedagogical possibility of art appreciation in art museums as a consciousness-raising practice, especially for the sake of cultivating business students' environmental awareness in two different contexts. We have analyzed American and Russian students' reflective essays based on their museum visits in order to explore how business students make sense of their aesthetic experiences and how art appreciation helps them to develop their sustainability mindset in a creative learning space. Through attentive viewing of the works of art, students have learned some key insights from their aesthetic appreciation at art museums. These insights not only facilitated honing their emotional skills, but also deepened their environmental awareness and heightened their sense of personal empowerment to act upon these newly acquired insights and values ensuing from art appreciation. After identifying six key themes extracted from both groups of students' essays based on their museum learning, we further discuss the pedagogical implications of contemplative art appreciation in museums as a means of contributing to more innovative and sustainable management education. © 2026 selection and editorial matter, Ekaterina Ivanova, Isabel Rimanoczy and Divya Singhal; individual chapters, the contributors.
