Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for delivering a customized and responsive learning pathway. In one embodiment, a profile service receives an objective related to a course of study, receives information to represent prior learning related to the course of study, and tracks progress related to the course of study. A prior learning assessment (PLA) engine conducts an assessment based on the prior learning related to the course of study, conducts a strength of fit analysis to align the assessment with a plurality of competencies and courses in a learning institution catalog and associated with the course of study, maps at least one of the plurality of competencies and courses to the assessment, and grants a credit for the at least one of the plurality of competencies and courses based on the assessment. A recommendation engine generates a customized and responsive learning pathway.

Abstract: A modular storage container for articles according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises a floor panel, a plurality of stackable side walls constructed and arranged to be connectable to the floor panel, a plurality of stackable end walls constructed and arranged to be connectable to the floor panel, and a plurality of stackable corner members constructed and arranged to be connectable adjacent one edge to a side wall and adjacent an opposite edge to an end wall, wherein each side wall and each end wall defining a wall end opening and each corner member having a mounting hole surrounded by a cylindrical boss, each cylindrical boss being constructed and arranged to fit within a corresponding wall end opening.

Abstract: A modular tray and lid combination for use in configuring a containment case includes one or more trays and a single lid. When a plurality of trays are used they are connected together either end-to-end or side-by-side or both. The lid includes a plurality of slide latches that secure the lid to the tray or trays.

Abstract: A stackable containment tray for receiving discrete articles for storage and/or sterilization according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises a combination of two side panels, a floor supported by the two side panels, an upper stack ring, and a lower stack ring, a pair of opposed handle lock brackets, and a pair of opposed bail handles. The upper and lower stack rings are identical to each other and provide the stacking capability. The bail handle of one tray is able to interfit into the handle lock bracket of an upper tray, thereby enabling the stacked combination of trays to be locked together.

Abstract: Clear, or translucent fabric softener compositions comprise fabric softener compound, principal solvent system, and high electrolyte levels. The high electrolyte level allows for a broader range of principal solvents to be used and/or reduces the incidence of increased viscosity when low levels of principal solvent are used. Phase stabilizers which are primarily ethoxylated hydrophobic materials can be used to reduce the amount of principal solvent that is needed and/or to stabilize the compositions in the presence of the highest levels of electrolyte. Specific phase stabilizers provide additional benefits including improved softening. Specific electrolytes provide improved results. Addition of primary solvents and/or phase stabilizers to the softener compounds can improve the viscosity/handling of the compounds and the ability to create the finished compositions.
