Background: The transition from school to adult life is challenging for young people with intellectual disability. The study aimed to explore how young people with intellectual disability themselves experience the transition from school to adult life.
Methods: A co-designed, qualitative study.
Colloidal nanorod heterostructures consisting of multiple quantum dots within a nanorod (-DNRs, where is the number of quantum dots within a nanorod) are synthesized with alternating segments of CdSe "dot" and CdS "rod" via solution heteroepitaxy. The reaction temperature, time dependent ripening, and asymmetry of the wurtzite lattice and the resulting anisotropy of surface ligand steric hindrance are exploited to vary the morphology of the growing quantum dot segments. The alternating CdSe and CdS growth steps can be easily repeated to increment the dot number in unidirectional or bidirectional growth regimes.

Many educators struggle with anxious or reticent learners during simulation. This reticence often becomes apparent first during the simulation prebrief.
