Anawsterau Dysgu
Datblygwyd y modiwl a’r adnoddau gan Brifysgol Casnewydd a Phrifysgol Metropolitan Caerdydd i ymdrin yn uniongyrchol â dulliau addysgu a dysgu ar gyfer disgyblion sydd â dyslecsia, mewn ymgais i gynyddu gwybodaeth a dealltwriaeth addysgwyr o ddyslecsia.
Anufudd-dod Dinesig – Meredydd Evans

Edward Lhuyd annual lecture
The Edward Lhuyd Lecture is an annual presentation on various aspects of academic and contemporary life in Wales and the world. The presentations cover a wide variety of themes including geology, literature, ecology or history. The lecture is organized between the Coleg Cymaeg and the Learned Society of Wales. Note, there were no lectures in 2020 - 2022 due to Covid-19.
Cynhadledd ‘Boddi mewn Celfyddyd’: Gwaddol ’65
Hanner can mlynedd ar ôl boddi Tryweryn, trefnwyd cynhadledd i gasglu ynghyd a gwerthfawrogi’r gwaddol celfyddydol a ysbrydolwyd gan foddi’r cwm mewn cynhadledd deuddydd mewn lleoliad arbennig nid nepell o Dryweryn. Yn ystod y gynhadledd, traddodwyd darlithoedd gan Dafydd Iwan a Manon Eames, a chafwyd arddangosfa aml-gyfrwng unigryw yn dogfennu hanes y boddi, a’r cynnyrch celfyddydol a grëwyd yn ei sgil. Cafwyd hefyd gyfle i ymweld â Thryweryn a chlywed am brofiadau ac atgofion Aeron Prysor Jones am foddi’r cwm, yn ogystal â mwynhau detholiad o’r ddrama Porth y Byddar gan Manon Eames, o dan gyfarwyddyd Siwan Llynor. Noddwyd y gynhadledd gan y Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol a Phrifysgol Bangor.
Deconvolution of the complex modulus in linear viscoelasticity
The relaxation spectrum of a viscoelastic material holds the key to describing its relaxation mechanisms at a molecular level. It also plays a fundamental role in accessing the molecular weight distribution, and in modelling the dynamics of complex uids. The relaxation spectrum cannot be measured directly, but it may be locally determined from experimental measurements of viscoelastic response at a macroscopic level. In particular, the relaxation spectrum is a continuous distribution of relaxation times which may be recovered, at least locally, from measurements of the complex modulus of the material. Although mathematical expressions for the continuous spectrum have been known for over a century, these were inaccessible to numerical implementation for decades, since they involve inverse operators which are not continuous, resulting in severe instability. Progress was made when regularization methods for approximating discrete line spectra were introduced some two decades ago. It was not until 2012, however, that Davies and Goulding proposed a method of wavelet regularization for recovering continuous spectra in a mathematically rigorous framework. This work was further rened in 2016 by introducing a mathematical form of high-order derivative spectroscopy involving sequences of derivatives of dynamic moduli, termed Maclaurin sequences. In this article, a rigorous justication for the use of Maclaurin sequences is presented. Furthermore, a new sequence is presented, which is termed a wavelet correction sequence, achieving the same accuracy as Maclaurin sequences, but with a reduced order of differentiation.

Gwerddon: Greening a desert? Some comments on the history of a Welsh-language e-periodical
The article considers the history of Gwerddon, a multi-disciplinary research e-journal launched in April 2007, which has to date (January 2019) published more than one hundred original articles. Its origins lie in the growth of Welsh-language teaching in Welsh universities in the 1970s and 1980s, the campaign to establish a Welsh-language federal college at a time when the federal University of Wales was in crisis, and the urgent need for Welsh-language scholarship to be equally represented in the research assessment exercises of the RAE/REF. The study considers the journal’s impact factors and its role in the development of a Welsh presence on the burgeoning web of the early twenty-first century, and argues that its continuation rests both on Welsh Government educational policy in general, and the financial resilience of the Higher Education sector at a time of severe challenges.
Health and salvation: medicine, the body and the moral order in colonial Bengal 1840-1935
Drawing on a rich seam of archival material on Welsh missionary activity in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Bengal, the article addresses ways in which care of the sick became a central, if problematic, part of Christian Mission. While the building of dispensaries, clinics and hospitals provided both a platform and a social visibility to the evangelisation process, they also exposed deeper tensions around the politics of gender and the implantation of Western medical practices in a colonised society.
Minority nationalist parties and their adaption to devolution: A comparative study of Plaid Cymru and the Bloq...
In many places, devolution has created new regional arenas within which minority nationalist parties have been highly successful in mobilising support for their national projects. However, scholars have paid scant attention to how minority nationalist parties have adapted as they have become major players in regional politics. This article examines such process of adaptation in the cases of two minority nationalist parties: Plaid Cymru in Wales and the Bloque Nacionalista Galego in Galicia. It is argued that the experiences of these parties in adapting to passing the thresholds of representation, relevance and government in their respective regions are far from unique. Rather, they reflect the challenges that any political party faces when it makes the transition from protest to power.
