Interview observations

The semi-structured interviews investigated a range of sub-hypotheses through questioning amongst the stakeholder groups. The following sections outline the key findings of these interviews, highlighting areas of alignment and non-alignment amongst stakeholders regarding these issues, together with other observations.

Political supporter responses.
Question Alignment Non-Alignment Other Observations
Is there Regional Coherence and what can be done to improve or strengthen? Recognition of critical role of collaboration; Coherence exists yet room for improvement remains; Commitment to supporting further developments Stronger coherence in Wales with the Public Sector; Stronger Coherence in Texas with Private Sector Welsh Assembly Government Supports Regional Coherence; At the institutional levels it is seen that there is a hindrance from senior management
Are institutions across the region responsive to the collaboration agenda? In the main all are responsive; Institutional responsiveness is led by individuals Greater cajoling needed on the Welsh side Within Wales, funding mechanisms have not yet driven collaboration
Do you see collaboration as a strategic imperative for institutions? All agree, Yes Some institutions see collaboration as a “means”, others as an “end” On both sides it was seen to be away of accessing more research funds and drives ratings
What do you see the role of government as being? Facilitator&Funder; Providing light touch support Texas no government involvement at Board level
Is the regional cluster growing and in the right direction? All agree, Yes Within Wales dual agendas of Healthcare delivery and Broader-Education and Economic Development Agenda Texas am more Mature Cluster, Wales is still in its Infancy; Both recognize the Economic Impact of the Sector

Questions & Answers

A golfer on a fairway is 70 m away from the green, which sits below the level of the fairway by 20 m. If the golfer hits the ball at an angle of 40° with an initial speed of 20 m/s, how close to the green does she come?

can someone explain to me, an ignorant high school student, why the trend of the graph doesn't follow the fact that the higher frequency a sound wave is, the more power it is, hence, making me think the phons output would follow this general trend?
Joseph Reply
Nevermind i just realied that the graph is the phons output for a person with normal hearing and not just the phons output of the sound waves power, I should read the entire thing next time
Joseph
Follow up question, does anyone know where I can find a graph that accuretly depicts the actual relative "power" output of sound over its frequency instead of just humans hearing
