The Quality Council for Trades and Occupations (QCTO) was established in 2010 in terms of section 26G of the Skills Development Act, of 1998 as a juristic person. It was listed as a public entity in Government Gazette No 33900 of 31 December 2010 effective from 1 April 2010 to establish the Sub-framework for Trades and Occupations. It is responsible for the development, maintenance and quality assurance of qualifications within its sub-framework.
External integrated summative assessment is an integral and critical component of the QCTO's quality assurance system. External integrated summative assessment ensures consistency and credibility of the assessment of occupational qualifications, trades and part qualifications. The external integrated summative assessment will be conducted by the relevant AQP, applying nationally standardised assessment instruments.
For learners to qualify for an external integrated summative assessment, they must provide proof of completion of all required modules. Foundational Learning Competence (FLC) is a pre-requisite for the external integrated summative assessment of all occupational qualifications and part qualifications at NQF levels 3 and 4.
1.1 Objectives and criteria for assessment
The objectives and criteria for External Integrated Summative Assessment are to:
outline how the external integrated summative assessment will be conducted, by whom how and where i.e. the model to be used
outline the requirements for the external integrated summative assessment for occupational qualifications, trades and part qualifications and guide all assessment practices;
ensure that all assessment practices are aligned to legislation and national policy environment;
ensure that assessment is understood as an integrated process within the learning experience; and
outline the most appropriate way for the AQP to carry out its functions for the given context.
Legislative and regulatory framework
In terms of the Skills Development Act, 1998 (Act 97 of 1998), the QCTO must design and develop occupational qualifications and standards and ensure the quality assurance thereof. A nationally standardised external integrated summative assessment (EISA) is an integral part of the quality assurance of occupational qualifications, trades and part qualifications.
This policy should be read in conjunction with the QCTO Policy on Delegation of Qualification Assessment to Assessment Quality Partners (AQPs).
Audience and applicability
This policy applies to AQPs responsible for developing standardised assessment instruments in accordance with the external assessment specifications document and accredited assessment centres responsible for conducting external summative assessments. The policy is applicable to the assessment of occupational qualifications and part qualifications registered on the Occupational Qualifications sub framework (OQSF).
Rationale for a flexible approach
The assessment strategy will vary according to a number of factors. Since the qualifications in the Occupational Qualifications Framework cover a variety of occupational contexts, levels of complexity, percentage of knowledge, practical skills and work experience as well as NQF levels, there can be no one model for external assessment which will suit all occupational qualifications. Part of the design process for each qualification focuses on determining the most efficient, effective, practical and economic way to conduct valid external assessment in the context of that particular qualification and this information is outlined in the Qualification Assessment Specifications document.
Underlying principles and values
The following principles and values must be taken into consideration during the development of the processes.
External Assessment systems and processes must:
be fair, reliable, valid, ethical and transparent
be consistent across time, place, role players and respond to a non-sectoral demand led model
use methodologies that are fit-for-purpose and reflect a consistent level of higher cognitive challenge
avoid tendencies of exclusivity
ASSESSMENT REQUIREMENTS
Qualification Assessment Specifications
The QCTO has introduced a compulsory external assessment as a prerequisite for certification for all occupational qualifications. The purpose of this is to establish and maintain a national standard for each occupational qualification. By ensuring the validity and reliability of the external summative assessment based on a national standard the QCTO aims to enhance the credibility of the certificates issued to qualifying learners for occupational qualifications.
Internal assessment is conducted by providers in line with the guidelines given in the curriculum for each curriculum component. Workplaces offering the work experience are provided with a work experience record which must be completed and signed off, as well as specifications regarding supporting evidence to be collected. The learner achievements resulting from internal assessment are recorded in statements of results. Candidates become eligible for external assessment when they have all the statements of results as specified in the assessment specifications.
Because the external assessment strategy needs to be fit for purpose, a Qualification Assessment Specifications document spelling out the requirements for external assessment is developed for each occupational qualification. Assessment instruments will be developed in accordance with the assessment strategy for each occupational qualification. The actual assessment is thus standardised nationally for all candidates for any single occupational qualification.
When an organisation is appointed as an Assessment Quality Partner by the QCTO for a specified occupational qualification, its first task is to participate in the development of the Qualification Assessment Specifications for the qualification in question. The Qualification Assessment Specifications are developed during the qualification development process and it is expected that a minimum of 50% of the working group members should be experts in that particular occupational qualification.
Criteria for the development of the external assessment specifications document
The external assessment strategy must be included.
Key occupational outcomes must be described.
The point(s) at which the occupational qualification is to be assessed must be indicated.
Critical identified elements of 'external assessment' to be externally moderated (if any) must be indicated.
Eligibility requirements for candidates for external assessment must be specified.
Exemplars of external assessment instruments must be included.
The language(s) of assessment must be included.
Minimum requirements (qualifications/experience) for the assessment specialists must be specified.
Criteria for the development of external assessment instruments
The guidelines on the content to be assessed should ensure consistency and quality across time, place, role players and occupations.
Assessment instruments should be developed to ensure the validity, consistency, quality and credibility of the assessments.
Assessment instruments should be based on the outcomes of the occupational qualification or part qualification and assessment criteria stated in the assessment specifications document.
Assessment instruments should be developed by subject matter experts in a particular occupational qualification or part qualification.
Assessment techniques
A range of assessment techniques to ensure that assessment is educationally sound, appropriate to the discipline or field of study, all outcomes are assessed and the criteria of validity, reliability, authenticity and feasibility are met will be spelled out in the curriculum component of the occupational qualification, trade or part qualification.
Responsibilities for the implementation of internal assessments
The accredited Skills Development provider (SDP) is responsible for conducting formative assessments and learners must be given feedback on their performance;
The SDP must conduct internal self-evaluations to monitor its general performance on the training delivery and formative assessments;
The AQP and the QCTO will monitor the performance of the SDP with respect to the implementation of internal formative assessments and the internal self-evaluations of its performance on the training delivery and formative assessments.
Roles and responsibilities of the QCTO
The QCTO will
Where necessary appoint an AQP for each occupational qualification or part qualification.
Publish assessment specifications document, developed as part of the qualifications development process.
Monitor and evaluate AQPs performance in managing the external integrated summative assessments and where necessary undertake audits to determine the quality performance of AQPs.
Ensure that national standards are met through monitoring and evaluation of the execution of functions by the AQP.
Evaluate the assessment and moderation processes.
Maintain a database of accredited SDPs and assessment centres/sites.
Monitor adherence to the QCTOs Code of Conduct for AQPs.
Monitor the readiness of learners for the EISA
Roles and responsibilities of the AQP
The AQP will:
Ensure that it receives learner enrolment data from accredited Skills Development Providers (SDPs) on time for planning purposes.
issue candidate registration numbers after the learners have been recommended to sit for final external assessment;
Liaise with the accredited assessment centres and approved sites on assessment instruments to be administered for a particular session.
Ensure that complete assessment instruments and related documentation are forwarded to the accredited assessment centres and approved sites in a secure manner agreed upon.
Keep a record of assessment specialists that assess and moderate the external assessments involving practical tasks which are conducted at decentralised assessment centres that simulate working conditions or approved workplace sites.
Ensure that learner results are credible and that the assessment process was fair, valid, reliable and unbiased.
Roles and responsibilities of assessment centres
Accredited assessment centres are addressed in a separate policy as they must meet a number of criteria. The accredited assessment centres and their approved sites will ensure that:
There are sufficient invigilators during assessments and they receive appropriate training.
There are no fraudulent activities during the assessment.
The safe storage of assessment instruments and related documentation is adhered to.
Assessment results are delivered to the relevant AQP within the stipulated time and in a manner agreed upon.
Assessment materials are marked and results are captured accordingly.
Roles and responsibilities of systems auditors, invigilators and administrators
These key role-players need not necessarily be subject matter experts or expert practitioners since they focus on compliance. They check:
That all relevant assessment policies and procedures are implemented correctly
The secure handling of the assessment instruments and
The procedures for checking the identity of candidates and
The authenticity of the assessment processes.
Roles and responsibilities of the skills development providers
The skills development providers will:
Conduct internal assessment in line with the guidelines given in the curriculum for each curriculum component.
Record the learner achievements resulting from formative assessments in statements of results.
Register the learners with the AQP when they become eligible for final integrated external assessment.
Coordinate the provision and assessment of the knowledge and practical skills curriculum components of an occupational qualification based on the recommendations from the AQP.
Liaise with workplaces to assist candidates to have access to work experience.
Roles and responsibilities of the learners
The learners must:
Take responsibility for their learning and assessment by being active participants;
Participate in assessment processes in an honest and disciplined manner;
Monitor their learning towards readiness to sit for an external summative assessment and inform the provider when ready for external assessment;
Know the appeals procedure of the AQP so that they can follow it should there be a need to do so.
Complaints about the assessment and assessment process by learners should be lodged at the accredited assessment centre or approved site.
Appeals on the assessment and assessment process by learners should be lodged with the relevant AQP, in which the decision of the AQP appeals committee shall be final.
MANAGEMENT OF ASSESSMENT
Coordination of Component Provision
The QCTO will ensure, for occupational qualifications, that a single agent is responsible to assist learners to navigate through all three learning components and have access to the external summative assessment.
In order to qualify for entry into the final external integrated summative assessment, a learner will have:
been enrolled with a QCTO accredited provider for that particular occupational qualification;
met the entry requirements specified in the registered occupational qualification document;
met the requirements for the knowledge, practical and work experience components of the occupational qualification; and
met the requirements for FLC where applicable.
QUALITY ASSURANCE AND MONITORING OF POLICY IMPLEMENTATION
The effectiveness of the policy on the external integrated summative assessment shall be monitored and reviewed on a regular basis against the set quality assurance standards and associated performance indicators to identify and implement appropriate amendments aimed at improving the effectiveness, efficiency, economy and impact of the said policy and procedures.
Best practices in the occupational space for policy implementation will be identified and best practice models will be used to benchmark the practice amongst AQPs.
On appointment the Assessment Quality Partner signs a Service Level Agreement with the QCTO. This provides a schedule for implementation of the QCTO model for external assessment, giving deadlines for each requirement during the first year of appointment. This schedule provides the basis for the QCTO to monitor, evaluate and review the initial activities of the AQP.
In addition, the QCTO has a standardised data reporting template which must be completed and submitted quarterly. This provides specified quantitative data to the QCTO.
Each year after the first year of appointment the AQP must also complete and submit a qualitative report, which serves the dual purpose of a self-evaluation, assisting in strategic planning for the coming year, and of providing the QCTO with the basis for continued monitoring, evaluation and review.

More people moving to Oregon
by Les Christie @CNNMoney January 7, 2014: 7:09 AM ET
Oregon has a much greater percentage of people moving in than moving away.
Oregon was the number one destination among people who moved from one state to another last year.
More than 61% of all interstate moves made in Oregon were for people coming to live in the state, according to United Van Lines' annual migration study, which tracked 129,000 moves in the United States in 2013.
Oregon replaced Washington, D.C., which had held the top spot for the previous five years as workers sought out government jobs. The nation's capital fell to fourth place last year, tying with South Dakota.
Related: America's Best Places to Live
Other top destinations for those seeking to relocate included South Carolina, with 60% of moves made for those coming into the state, North Carolina (58%), and Nevada (56%).
"Business incentives, industrial growth and relatively lower costs of living are attracting jobs and people to the Southeastern and Western states, such as South Dakota, Colorado and Texas," said UCLA economist Michael Stoll.
Lifestyle also plays a part. "We're seeing continued migration to the Pacific Northwest as young professionals and retirees are drawn to amenities, including public transit, green space and the local arts and entertainment scene," he said.
Housing costs are an important factor, however, said Stoll. Oregon has many of the same virtues as California -- mild winters, an active lifestyle -- but home prices are much lower, he said. The median price for a single-family home in Portland, for example, is $285,000 according to Zillow. In San Francisco, it's $881,000 and in Los Angeles, $481,000.
Related: Cost of living: How far will my salary go in another city?
The steep cost of living in California has weighed on its ability to attract new residents; about as many folks moved out of the state as those who moved in, United Van lines found.
Several states with high costs of living saw more people move out than move in, including New Jersey, with 64% of movers leaving the state, Illinois and New York, each with 61%, and Connecticut, losing 59%. West Virginia was the only inexpensive place to live among the top five states that saw more people moving out.
Detroit tries to rise again
After spending 16 straight years on the negative side of the scale, Michigan finally saw things turnaround last year.
"Despite having an unemployment rate higher than the national average home sales and home prices are up, showing an increased demand for housing, the state's per capita income is up, and automakers in Detroit are hiring," said Stoll.
Related: Where the jobs are
Fewer people have been moving from state to state since 2008. "Most of our customers move to take advantage of job opportunities and we're seeing a slow recovery from the recession," said Melissa Sullivan, spokeswoman for United.
As the economy heats up, more people are expected to move as corporations step up hiring and look farther afield to find qualified employees.
United Van Lines has been tracking the state-by-state migration patterns of movers in the U.S. since 1977.

\section{Introduction}
\label{sec:intro}

In the past years important experimental progresses have been made in the field of heavy baryons~\cite{pdg}, and we refer to reviews~\cite{Chen:2016spr,Cheng:2015iom,Crede:2013sze,Klempt:2009pi,Bianco:2003vb,Korner:1994nh} for their recent progress.
Especially, the LHCb experiment observed as many as five excited $\Omega_c$ states at the same time~\cite{Aaij:2017nav}, which is probably related to the fine structure of the strong interaction.
Some of these excited $\Omega_c$ states can be interpreted as $P$-wave states~\cite{Chen:2015kpa}, inspiring us to further study the $D$-wave heavy baryons.
Actually, in Ref.~\cite{Chen:2016phw} we have systematically studied the $D$-wave heavy baryons of the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{\bar 3}_F$ using the method of QCD sum rules~\cite{Shifman:1978bx,Reinders:1984sr} in the framework of heavy quark effective theory (HQET)~\cite{Grinstein:1990mj,Eichten:1989zv,Falk:1990yz}, and in the present study we shall follow the same approach to study the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{6}_F$ ones, including the $D$-wave $\Omega_c$ states.

There have been lots of heavy baryons observed in various experiments~\cite{pdg,Yelton:2016fqw,Kato:2016hca,Aaij:2017vbw}. Among them, the $\Xi_c(3123)$ observed by the BaBar Collaboration~\cite{Aubert:2007dt} (but not seen in the following Belle experiment~\cite{Kato:2013ynr}) is a good candidate of the $D$-wave $\Xi_c^\prime(\mathbf{6}_F)$ state, and has been investigated using many phenomenological methods/models,
including various quark models~\cite{Ebert:2007nw,Zhong:2007gp,Ebert:2011kk,Liu:2012sj,Shah:2016mig,Zhao:2016qmh},
the Faddeev method~\cite{Valcarce:2008dr},
the Regge trajectory~\cite{Guo:2008he},
the relativistic flux tube model~\cite{Chen:2014nyo},
the heavy hadron chiral perturbation theory~\cite{Cheng:2015naa},
and QCD sum rules~\cite{Zhang:2008pm,Wang:2017vtv}, etc.
More discussions can be found in Refs.~\cite{Cheng:2006dk,Selem:2006nd,Garcilazo:2007eh,Gerasyuta:2007un,Guo:2015daa}, and we again refer to reviews~\cite{Chen:2016spr,Cheng:2015iom,Crede:2013sze,Klempt:2009pi,Bianco:2003vb,Korner:1994nh} for the recent progress.

We have studied the heavy baryons using the method of QCD sum rules within HQET~\cite{Liu:2007fg,Chen:2015kpa,Mao:2015gya,Chen:2016phw},
and in the present study we shall further study the $D$-wave charmed baryons of the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{6}_F$.
We shall take the ${\mathcal O}(1/m_Q)$ corrections ($m_Q$ is the heavy quark mass) into account during our QCD sum rule analyses, and extract the chromomagnetic splitting within the same baryon multiplet.
More discussions on heavy mesons and baryons containing a single heavy quark can be found in Refs.~\cite{Bagan:1991sg,Neubert:1991sp,Broadhurst:1991fc,Ball:1993xv,Huang:1994zj,Dai:1996yw,Colangelo:1998ga,Groote:1996em,Zhu:2000py,Lee:2000tb,Huang:2000tn,Wang:2003zp,Duraes:2007te,Zhou:2014ytp,Zhou:2015ywa}.

This paper is organized as follows. In Sec.~\ref{sec:sumrule}, we briefly introduce how we use the $D$-wave heavy baryon interpolating fields to perform QCD sum rule analyses,
and we refer interested readers to consult the discussion in Refs.~\cite{Chen:2016phw,Liu:2007fg,Chen:2015kpa,Mao:2015gya} for details.
Then we perform numerical analyses in Sec.~\ref{sec:numerical}, and offer a short summary in Sec.~\ref{sec:summary}.

\section{QCD Sum Rule Analyses}
\label{sec:sumrule}

\begin{figure*}[hbt]
\begin{center}
\scalebox{0.6}{\includegraphics{dwave.eps}}
\end{center}
\caption{The notations for the $D$-wave charmed baryons of the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{6}_F$. See Fig.~1 of Ref.~\cite{Chen:2016phw} and discussions therein for details.
\label{fig:dwave}}
\end{figure*}

In Ref.~\cite{Chen:2016phw} we have systematically constructed all the $D$-wave heavy baryon interpolating fields, but just studied the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{\bar 3}_F$ ones using the method of QCD sum rules in the
framework of heavy quark effective theory (HQET). In this paper we use the same method to study the rest ones of the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{6}_F$, as briefly shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:dwave}. We refer interested readers to consult the discussion in Ref.~\cite{Chen:2016phw} for details.

Here we briefly explain our notations: $J^{\alpha_1\cdots\alpha_{j-1/2}}_{j,P,F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda}$ denotes the $D$-wave heavy baryon field belonging to the baryon multiplet $[F, j_l, s_l, \rho-\lambda]$, where $j$, $P$, and $F$ denote its total angular momentum, parity and $SU(3)$ flavor representation ($\mathbf{\bar 3}_F$ or $\mathbf{6}_F$); $j_l$ and $s_l$ are the total angular momentum and spin angular momentum of its light components, respectively; there are three types ($\rho-\lambda$): $\rho\rho$--type ($l_\rho = 2$ and $l_\lambda = 0$), $\lambda\lambda$--type ($l_\rho = 0$ and $l_\lambda = 2$) and $\rho\lambda$--type ($l_\rho = 1$ and $l_\lambda = 1$), where we use $l_\rho$ to denote the orbital angular momentum between the two light quarks, and $l_\lambda$ to denote the orbital angular momentum between the heavy quark and the two-light-quark system. These parameters satisfy $L = l_\lambda \otimes l_\rho = 2$ (note that we only investigate the $D$-wave heavy baryons in the present study), $j_l = L \otimes s_l$ and $j = j_l \otimes s_Q = | j_l \pm 1/2 |$, with $s_Q = 1/2$ the spin of the heavy quark.

The explicit forms of $J^{\alpha_1\cdots\alpha_{j-1/2}}_{j,P,F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda}$ have been given in Eqs.~(2--19) of Ref.~\cite{Chen:2016phw}. We use them to perform QCD sum rule analyses by assuming their coupling to the state $|j,P,F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda\rangle$ to be
\begin{eqnarray}
&& \langle 0| J^{\alpha_1\cdots\alpha_{j-1/2}}_{j,P,F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda} |j,P,F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda \rangle
\\ \nonumber && ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ = f_{F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda} u^{\alpha_1\cdots\alpha_{j-1/2}} \, .
\end{eqnarray}
Again, we recommend interested readers to consult Refs.~\cite{Chen:2016phw,Liu:2007fg,Chen:2015kpa,Chen:2008qv,Mao:2015gya,Chen:2015moa,Chen:2016otp} for details, but simply list here the equation to evaluate the mass of the heavy baryon belonging to the multiplet $[F, j_l, s_l, \rho-\lambda]$:
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:mass}
m_{j,P,F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda} = m_Q + \overline{\Lambda}_{F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda} + \delta m_{j,P,F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda} \, .
\end{equation}
Here $m_Q$ is the heavy quark mass; $\overline{\Lambda}_{F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda} = \overline{\Lambda}_{|j_l-1/2|,P,F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda} = \overline{\Lambda}_{j_l+1/2,P,F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda}$ is the sum rule result obtained at the leading order; $\delta m_{j,P,F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda}$ is the sum rule result obtained at the ${\mathcal O}(1/m_Q)$ order:
\begin{eqnarray}

\end{eqnarray}
where $C_{mag} (m_{Q}/\mu) = [ \alpha_s(m_Q) / \alpha_s(\mu) ]^{3/\beta_0}$ with $\beta_0 = 11 - 2 n_f /3$, and the coefficient $d_{M} \equiv d_{j,j_{l}}$ is defined to be
\begin{eqnarray}
d_{j_{l}-1/2,j_{l}} &=& 2j_{l}+2\, ,
\\ \nonumber d_{j_{l}+1/2,j_{l}} &=& -2j_{l} \, ,
\end{eqnarray}
which is directly related to the baryon mass splitting within the same multiplet.

In Ref.~\cite{Chen:2016phw} we have systematically studied the $D$-wave heavy baryons of the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{\bar 3}_F$ using the method of QCD sum rules with HQET. In this paper we similarly study the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{6}_F$ ones, and calculate the analytical formulae for $\overline{\Lambda}_{F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda}$, $K_{F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda}$ and $\Sigma_{F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda}$.
There are altogether seven heavy baryon multiplets of the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{6}_F$ as shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:dwave}, i.e., $[\mathbf{6}_F, 1, 1, \rho\rho]$, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 2, 1, \rho\rho]$, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 3, 1, \rho\rho]$, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 1, 1, \lambda\lambda]$, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 2, 1, \lambda\lambda]$, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 3, 1, \lambda\lambda]$ and $[\mathbf{6}_F, 2, 0, \rho\lambda]$. Hence, there can be as many as two $j^P = 1/2^+$ $D$-wave excited $\Sigma_c$ states, five $j^P = 3/2^+$ ones, five $j^P = 5/2^+$ ones, and two $j^P = 7/2^+$ ones. The numbers of excited $\Xi_c^\prime$ and $\Omega_c$ states are the same.
Recalling that the LHCb experiment observed as many as five excited $\Omega_c$ states~\cite{Aaij:2017nav}, some of these $D$-wave heavy baryons may be observed experimentally at the same time.
Theoretically, in the present study we can only use five baryon multiplets to perform sum rule analyses, because in Ref.~\cite{Chen:2016phw} we failed to construct the currents belonging to the other two multiplets $[\mathbf{6}_F, 2, 1, \rho\rho]$ and $[\mathbf{6}_F, 2, 1, \lambda\lambda]$.

As an example, we use the charmed baryon multiplet $[\Sigma_c(\mathbf{6}_F), 1, 1, \rho\rho]$ to perform QCD sum rule analyses. It contains two charmed baryons, $\Sigma_c(1/2^+)$ and $\Sigma_c(3/2^+)$, and the relevant interpolating field is
\begin{eqnarray}
&& J_{1/2,+,\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho}(x)
\label{eq:current}
\\ \nonumber &=& \epsilon_{abc} \Big ( [\mathcal{D}^t_{\mu_1} \mathcal{D}^t_{\mu_2} u^{aT}(x)] \mathbb{C} \gamma^t_{\mu_3} d^b(x)
\\ \nonumber && ~~~~~~~~ - 2 [\mathcal{D}^t_{\mu_1} u^{aT}(x)] \mathbb{C} \gamma^t_{\mu_3} [\mathcal{D}^t_{\mu_2} d^b(x)]
\\ \nonumber && ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + u^{aT}(x) \mathbb{C} \gamma^t_{\mu_3} [\mathcal{D}^t_{\mu_1} \mathcal{D}^t_{\mu_2} d^b(x)] \Big )
\\ \nonumber && ~~~~~~~~
\times \Big ( g_t^{\mu_1 \mu_3} g_t^{\mu_2 \mu_4} + g_t^{\mu_2 \mu_3} g_t^{\mu_1 \mu_4} \Big ) \times \gamma^t_{\mu_4} \gamma_5 h_v^c(x) \, .
\end{eqnarray}
We can use this current to perform QCD sum rule analyses, and calculate $\overline{\Lambda}_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho}$, $K_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho}$ and $\Sigma_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho}$:
\begin{eqnarray}
&& \Pi_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho} = f_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho}^{2} e^{-2 \bar \Lambda_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho} / T}
\label{eq:ope}
\\ \nonumber &=& \int_{0}^{\omega_c} [\frac{11}{80640\pi^4}\omega^9 - \frac{19\langle g_s^2 GG \rangle}{3072\pi^4} \omega^5]e^{-\omega/T}d\omega \, ,
\\ && f_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho}^{2} K_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho} e^{-2 \bar \Lambda_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho} / T}
\label{eq:Kc}
\\ \nonumber &=& \int_{0}^{\omega_c} [ - \frac{59}{2217600\pi^4}\omega^{11} + \frac{299\langle g_s^2 GG \rangle}{161280\pi^4} \omega^7]e^{-\omega/T}d\omega \, ,
\\ && f_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho}^{2} \Sigma_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho} e^{-2 \bar \Lambda_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho} / T}
\label{eq:Sc}
\\ \nonumber &=& \int_{0}^{\omega_c} [\frac{37\langle g_s^2 GG \rangle}{322560\pi^4} \omega^7]e^{-\omega/T}d\omega \, .
\end{eqnarray}
Sum rules for $\Xi^\prime_c$ and $\Omega_c$ belonging to the same multiplet, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 1, 1, \rho\rho]$, as well as sum rules for the other four multiplets, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 3, 1, \rho\rho]$, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 1, 1, \lambda\lambda]$, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 3, 1, \lambda\lambda]$ and $[\mathbf{6}_F, 2, 0, \rho\lambda]$, are listed in Appendix.~\ref{app:sumrule}. In the next section we shall use these equations to perform numerical analyses.

\section{Numerical Analyses}
\label{sec:numerical}

We use the following values for various condensates and parameters to perform numerical analyses~\cite{pdg,Yang:1993bp,Hwang:1994vp,Narison:2002pw,Gimenez:2005nt,Jamin:2002ev,Ioffe:2002be,Ovchinnikov:1988gk,colangelo}:
\begin{eqnarray}
\nonumber && \langle \bar qq \rangle = - (0.24 \pm 0.01)^3 \mbox{ GeV}^3 \, ,
\\ \nonumber && \langle \bar ss \rangle = 0.8 \times \langle\bar qq \rangle \, ,
\\ \nonumber &&\langle g_s^2GG\rangle =(0.48\pm 0.14) \mbox{ GeV}^4\, ,
\\ \label{condensates} && \langle g_s \bar q \sigma G q \rangle = M_0^2 \times \langle \bar qq \rangle\, ,
\\ \nonumber && \langle g_s \bar s \sigma G s \rangle = M_0^2 \times \langle \bar ss \rangle\, ,
\\ \nonumber && m_s = 0.125 \mbox{ GeV} \, ,
\\ \nonumber && M_0^2= 0.8 \mbox{ GeV}^2\, .
\end{eqnarray}
Besides them, we also need the $charm$ quark mass, for which we use the PDG value $m_c = 1.275 \pm 0.025$ GeV~\cite{pdg} in the $\overline{\rm MS}$ scheme.

There are two free parameters in Eqs.~(\ref{eq:ope}--\ref{eq:Sc}): the Borel mass $T$ and the threshold value $\omega_c$. We follow Ref.~\cite{Chen:2016phw} and use three criteria to constrain them:
\begin{enumerate}

\item The first criterion requires that the high-order corrections should be less than 10\%:
\begin{equation}
\label{eq_convergence}
\mbox{Convergence (CVG)} \equiv |\frac{ \Pi^{\rm high-order}_{F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda}(\infty, T) }{ \Pi_{F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda}(\infty, T) }| \leq 10\% \, ,
\end{equation}
where $\Pi^{\rm high\mbox{-}order}_{F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda}(\omega_c, T)$ denotes the high-order corrections, for example,
\begin{equation}
\Pi^{\rm high\mbox{-}order}_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho}(\omega_c, T) = \int_{0}^{\omega_c} [ - \frac{19\langle g_s^2 GG \rangle}{3072\pi^4} \omega^5 ]e^{-\omega/T}d\omega \, .
\end{equation}

\item The second criterion requires that the pole contribution (PC) should be larger than 10\%:
\begin{equation}
\label{eq_pole}
\mbox{Pole Contribution (PC)} \equiv \frac{ \Pi_{F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda}(\omega_c, T) }{ \Pi_{F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda}( \infty , T) } \geq 10\% \, .
\end{equation}
We can use the first and second criteria together to arrive at an interval $T_{min}<T<T_{max}$ for a fixed threshold value $\omega_c$.

\item The third criterion requires that the dependence of $m_{j,P,F,j_l,s_l,\rho-\lambda}$ on the threshold value $\omega_c$ should be weak.

\end{enumerate}

Borel mass $T$, calculated using the charmed baryon doublet $[\Sigma_c(\mathbf{6}_F),1,1,\rho\rho]$.

The shady band in the left panel is obtained by changing $T$ inside Borel windows. There exist non-vanishing working regions of $T$ as long as $\omega_c \geq 3.0$ GeV, while the results for $\omega_c < 3.0$ GeV are also shown, for which cases we choose the Borel mass $T$ when the PC defined in Eq.~(\ref{eq_pole}) is around 10\%.

}
\label{fig:mass1120ud}
\end{center}
\end{figure*}

Still use the baryon multiplet $[\Sigma_c(\mathbf{6}_F), 1, 1, \rho\rho]$ as an example. Firstly, when we take $\omega_c = 3.2$ GeV, the Borel window can be evaluated to be $0.425$~GeV $< T < 0.487$~GeV, and the following numerical results can be obtained:
\begin{eqnarray}
\nonumber \bar \Lambda_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho} &=& 1.425 \mbox{ GeV} \, , \,
\\ K_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho} &=& -1.372 \mbox{ GeV}^2 \, , \,
\\ \nonumber \Sigma_{\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho} &=& 0.0091 \mbox{ GeV}^{2} \, .
\end{eqnarray}
Their variations are shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:piks} with respect to the Borel mass $T$. Inserting them into Eqs.~(\ref{eq:mass}--\ref{eq:masscorrection}), we can further obtain
\begin{eqnarray}
\nonumber m_{\Sigma_c(1/2^+)} &=& 2.96 \mbox{ GeV} \, , \,
\\ m_{\Sigma_c(3/2^+)} &=& 2.97 \mbox{ GeV} \, , \,
\\ \nonumber \Delta m_{[\Sigma_c, 1, 1, \rho\rho]} &=& 11 \mbox{ MeV} \, ,
\end{eqnarray}
where $m_{\Sigma_c(1/2^+)}$ and $m_{\Sigma_c(3/2^+)}$ are the masses of the $\Sigma_c(1/2^+)$ and $\Sigma_c(3/2^+)$ belonging to the baryon multiplet $[\Sigma_c(\mathbf{6}_F), 1, 1, \rho\rho]$, and $\Delta m_{[\Sigma_c, 1, 1, \rho\rho]}$ is their mass splitting. We show the variation of $m_{\Sigma_b(1/2^+)}$ with respect to the Borel mass $T$ in the right panel of Fig.~\ref{fig:mass1120ud}.

Secondly, we change the threshold value $\omega_c$ and redo the above process. We show the variation of $m_{\Sigma_c(1/2^+)}$
with respect to the threshold value $\omega_c$ in the left panel of Fig.~\ref{fig:mass1120ud}. There are non-vanishing Borel windows as long as $\omega_c \geq 3.0$ GeV, and
the $\omega_c$ dependence is weak and acceptable in the region $3.0$ GeV$<\omega_c<3.4$ GeV. The results for $\omega_c \leq 3.0$ GeV are also shown, for which cases we choose the Borel mass $T$ when the PC defined in Eq.~(\ref{eq_pole}) is around 10\%.

Finally, we choose our working regions to be $3.0$ GeV$<\omega_c<3.4$ GeV and $0.425$ GeV $< T < 0.487$ GeV, and obtain
the following numerical results for the baryon multiplet $[\Sigma_c(\mathbf{6}_F), 1, 1, \rho\rho]$:
\begin{eqnarray}
\nonumber m_{\Sigma_c(1/2^+)} &=& 2.96^{+0.17}_{-0.12} \mbox{ GeV} \, , \,
\\ m_{\Sigma_c(3/2^+)} &=& 2.97^{+0.18}_{-0.13} \mbox{ GeV} \, , \,
\\ \nonumber \Delta m_{[\Sigma_c, 1, 1, \rho\rho]} &=& 11^{+17}_{-9} \mbox{ MeV} \, ,
\end{eqnarray}
where the central values correspond to $\omega_c = 3.2$ GeV and $T=0.456$ GeV,
and the uncertainties come from the threshold value $\omega_c$, the Borel mass $T$, the charm quark mass $m_c$, and various quark and gluon condensates.
We note that there are large theoretical uncertainties in our mass predictions, but the mass splitting within
the same doublet is produced quite well with much less theoretical uncertainty, because it does not depend much on the charm quark mass~\cite{Chen:2016phw,Liu:2007fg,Chen:2015kpa,Mao:2015gya}.

To study the charmed baryon multiplets $[\Xi_c^\prime(\mathbf{6}_F),1,1,\rho\rho]$ and $[\Omega_c(\mathbf{6}_F),1,1,\rho\rho]$, we fine-tune the threshold value $\omega_c$ to be
\begin{eqnarray}
\omega_c([\Xi_c^\prime,1,1,\rho\rho]) &\approx& 3.7~{\rm GeV} \, ,
\\ \nonumber \omega_c([\Omega_c,1,1,\rho\rho]) &\approx& 4.2~{\rm GeV} \, ,
\end{eqnarray}
so that
\begin{eqnarray}
&& \omega_c([\Omega_c,1,1,\rho\rho]) - \omega_c([\Xi_c^\prime,1,1,\rho\rho]) \approx
\\ \nonumber && \omega_c([\Xi_c^\prime,1,1,\rho\rho]) - \omega_c([\Sigma_c,1,1,\rho\rho]) \approx 0.5~{\rm GeV} \, ,
\end{eqnarray}
which value is the same as those used in our previous studies on excited heavy baryons~\cite{Chen:2016phw,Chen:2015kpa,Mao:2015gya}.

\end{figure*}

After fixing the threshold value $\omega_c([\Xi_c^\prime,1,1,\rho\rho])$ to be around 3.7 GeV, we can evaluate our working regions to be $3.5$ GeV$<\omega_c<3.9$ GeV and $0.395$ GeV $< T < 0.574$ GeV, and obtain
the following numerical results for the charmed baryon multiplet $[\Xi_c^\prime(\mathbf{6}_F), 1, 1, \rho\rho]$:
\begin{eqnarray}
\nonumber m_{\Xi_c^\prime(1/2^+)} &=& 3.02^{+0.15}_{-0.21} \mbox{ GeV} \, , \,
\\ m_{\Xi_c^\prime(3/2^+)} &=& 3.03^{+0.15}_{-0.21} \mbox{ GeV} \, , \,
\\ \nonumber \Delta m_{[\Xi_c^\prime, 1, 1, \rho\rho]} &=& 7^{+8}_{-6} \mbox{ MeV} \, ,
\end{eqnarray}
where the central values correspond to $\omega_c = 3.7$ GeV and $T=0.485$ GeV.
We show the variation of $m_{\Xi_c^\prime(1/2^+)}$ with respect to the Borel mass $T$ in the left panel of Fig.~\ref{fig:mass1120other}, where these curves are stable inside the Borel window $0.395$ GeV $< T < 0.574$ GeV.
The masses of $\Xi_c^\prime(1/2^+)$ and $\Xi_c^\prime(3/2^+)$ are both consistent with the mass of the $\Xi_c(3123)$ observed by the BaBar Collaboration~\cite{Aubert:2007dt}:
\begin{eqnarray}
m^{\rm exp}_{\Xi_c(3123)} = 3122.9 \pm 1.3 \pm 0.3 \mbox{ MeV} \, ,
\end{eqnarray}
which supports it to be a $D$-wave $\Xi_c^\prime$ state of $J^P=1/2^+$ or $3/2^+$.

Similarly, after fixing $\omega_c([\Omega_c,1,1,\rho\rho])$ to be around 4.2 GeV, we can evaluate our working regions to be $4.0$ GeV$<\omega_c<4.4$ GeV and $0.421$ GeV $< T < 0.655$ GeV, and obtain
the following numerical results for the charmed baryon multiplet $[\Omega_c(\mathbf{6}_F), 1, 1, \rho\rho]$:
\begin{eqnarray}
\nonumber m_{\Omega_c(1/2^+)} &=& 3.29^{+0.17}_{-0.25} \mbox{ GeV} \, , \,
\\ m_{\Omega_c(3/2^+)} &=& 3.29^{+0.16}_{-0.25} \mbox{ GeV} \, , \,
\\ \nonumber \Delta m_{[\Omega_c, 1, 1, \rho\rho]} &=& 5^{+5}_{-4} \mbox{ MeV} \, ,
\end{eqnarray}
where the central values correspond to $\omega_c = 4.2$ GeV and $T=0.538$ GeV.
We show the variation of $m_{\Omega_c(1/2^+)}$ with respect to the Borel mass $T$ in the right panel of Fig.~\ref{fig:mass1120other}, where these curves are stable inside the Borel window $0.421$ GeV $< T < 0.655$ GeV.

We list the above results in Table~\ref{tab:results}. Following the same procedures, we study the charmed baryon multiplets, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 3, 1, \lambda\lambda]$, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 2, 0, \rho\lambda]$, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 3, 1, \rho\rho]$, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 1, 1, \lambda\lambda]$, and obtain:
\begin{enumerate}

\item The baryon multiplet $[\mathbf{6}_F, 3, 1, \lambda\lambda]$ contains $\Sigma_c(5/2^+,7/2^+)$, $\Xi_c^\prime(5/2^+,7/2^+)$, and $\Omega_c(5/2^+,7/2^+)$. We use them to perform sum rule analyses, and obtain:
\begin{eqnarray}
\nonumber m_{[\Sigma_c, 3, 1, \lambda\lambda]} &\sim& 3.32^{+0.64}_{-0.24} \mbox{ GeV} \, ,
\\ m_{[\Xi^\prime_c, 3, 1, \lambda\lambda]} &\sim& 3.39^{+0.40}_{-0.20} \mbox{ GeV} \, ,
\\ \nonumber m_{[\Omega_c, 3, 1, \lambda\lambda]} &\sim& 3.49^{+0.30}_{-0.19} \mbox{ GeV} \, .
\end{eqnarray}
These values are also listed in Table~\ref{tab:results}, and their variations are shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:mass3102} with respect to the threshold value $\omega_c$.
The masses of $\Xi_c^\prime(5/2^+,7/2^+)$ are not far from the mass of the $\Xi_c(3123)$~\cite{Aubert:2007dt}, suggesting that the $\Xi_c(3123)$ may also be interpreted as a $D$-wave $\Xi_c^\prime$ state of $J^P=5/2^+$ or $7/2^+$.

We note that we can only evaluate their average masses ${1\over14} ( 6 m_{\Sigma_c({5/2}^+)} + 8 m_{\Sigma_c({7/2}^+)} )$, ${1\over14} ( 6 m_{\Xi_c^\prime({5/2}^+)} + 8 m_{\Xi_c^\prime({7/2}^+)} )$ and ${1\over14} ( 6 m_{\Omega_c({5/2}^+)} + 8 m_{\Omega_c({7/2}^+)} )$, because their mass splittings related to the chromomagnetic interaction ($\Sigma_{\mathbf{6}_F, 3, 1, \lambda\lambda}$) are difficult to be evaluated. More discussions can be found in Ref.~\cite{Chen:2016phw}.

However, the mass differences among $\Sigma_c(3/2^+,5/2^+)$, $\Xi_c^\prime(3/2^+,5/2^+)$ and $\Omega_c(3/2^+,5/2^+)$ seem a bit large, and we shall not use them to draw conclusions.

\item We use the baryon multiplet $[\mathbf{6}_F, 3, 1, \rho\rho]$ to perform sum rule analyses, but there do not exist Borel windows when $\omega_c \leq 4.0$ GeV. We also use the baryon multiplet $[\mathbf{6}_F, 1, 1, \lambda\lambda]$ to perform sum rule analyses, but the obtained results depend significantly on the threshold value $\omega_c$. Hence, these results can not be well interpreted, and we shall not use them to draw conclusions.

\section{Summary}
\label{sec:summary}

In this paper we used the method of QCD sum rules within HQET to study the $D$-wave charmed baryons of the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{6}_F$, and calculated their masses up to the order $\mathcal{O}(1/m_Q)$.
We investigated five charmed baryon doublets, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 1, 1, \rho\rho]$, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 3, 1, \rho\rho]$, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 1, 1, \lambda\lambda]$, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 3, 1, \lambda\lambda]$ and $[\mathbf{6}_F, 2, 0, \rho\lambda]$ (we note that in Ref.~\cite{Chen:2016phw} we failed to construct the currents belonging to the other two multiplets, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 2, 1, \rho\rho]$ and $[\mathbf{6}_F, 2, 1, \lambda\lambda]$).
The results are summarized in Table~\ref{tab:results} for the charmed baryon multiplets $[\mathbf{6}_F, 1, 1, \rho\rho]$, $[\mathbf{6}_F, 3, 1, \lambda\lambda]$, and $[\mathbf{6}_F, 2, 0, \rho\lambda]$, and those obtained using the former two multiplets ($[\mathbf{6}_F, 1, 1, \rho\rho]$ and $[\mathbf{6}_F, 3, 1, \lambda\lambda]$) are reasonable/better. We note that there are large theoretical uncertainties in our mass predictions, but the mass splittings within the same doublet are produced quite well with much less theoretical uncertainty.

Our results suggest that the $\Xi_c(3123)$ observed by the BaBar Collaboration~\cite{Aubert:2007dt} can be well interpreted as a $D$-wave $\Xi_c^\prime$ state, while its quantum numbers can not be determined. It may belong to either the charmed baryon doublet $[\Xi_c^\prime(\mathbf{6}_F), 1, 1, \rho\rho]$ or $[\Xi_c^\prime(\mathbf{6}_F), 3, 1, \lambda\lambda]$, but in both cases there would be a partner state close to it.
Our results also suggest that there may exist as many as four $D$-wave $\Omega_c$ states in the energy region $3.3\sim3.5$ GeV. They are the $D$-wave $\Omega_c$ states of $J^P = 1/2^+$, $3/2^+$, $5/2^+$, and $7/2^+$; the former two belong to the charmed baryon multiplet $[\mathbf{6}_F, 1, 1, \rho\rho]$, and the latter two belong to $[\mathbf{6}_F, 3, 1, \lambda\lambda]$. Recalling that the LHCb experiment observed as many as five excited $\Omega_c$ states~\cite{Aaij:2017nav} at the same time, we propose to search for these $D$-wave $\Omega_c$ states in the further LHCb and BelleII experiments in order to study the fine structure of the strong interaction.
We note that the doubly charmed baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ was recently discovered by the LHCb Collaboration~\cite{Aaij:2017ueg}, which can also be an idea platform to study the fine structure of the strong interaction~\cite{Chen:2017sbg}.

Following the same procedures, we have investigated the $D$-wave bottom baryons of the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{6}_F$. The pole mass of the bottom quark $m_b = 4.78 \pm 0.06$ GeV~\cite{pdg} is used, and the obtained results are listed in Table~\ref{tab:bottomresults}. We also suggest to search for them in further experiments. To end this paper, we note that not only masses but also decay and production
properties are useful to understand the heavy baryons~\cite{Chen:2017sci}, and J-PARC is planning an experimental project of such studies~\cite{e50}.
In near future, the joint efforts from experimentalists and theorists will be helpful to identify more and more charmed and bottom baryons.

Finding illustrations of God's love in the world around us is a precious gift. Recently, our own Lori Miller was able to share the gospel with people through a program called Finding Faith in Horsemanship. She, along with fellow horse trainer Shelby Rader, led a demonstration for 25 attenders from all walks of life. They ranged in age from 8 to 80. Some were single. Some were with families. And, whether they were horse people or not, they had the opportunity to make powerful connections to a relationship with Jesus.
Lori goes on to explain that they are able to use the horses to talk about how Jesus asks us to follow and trust Him, even if it does not make sense.

Coober Pedy will welcome Australia's Journey to Recognition on Thursday, an epic relay around the nation to see Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples recognised in the constitution. Catacomb Anglican Church will welcome the Journey with a Blessing service and morning tea on Thursday 4 July, 10:30am.
Although Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have lived in this land for more than 40,000 years, keeping alive the world's oldest continuous cultures. Australia's founding document does not recognise the first chapter of our national story.
Recognition campaigners are taking the message of the movement around Australia: that fixing the historical exclusion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples from Australia's Constitution is the right thing to do.
Campaigners have already walked more than 700 kilometres from Melbourne and have visited 30 communities. Now driving through the centre of the country, Coober Pedy is the second stop on the road from Adelaide to Alice Springs.
Coober Pedy locals are encouraged to attend to hear more about this historic quest to fix the constitution.


As kids, we used them to disturb a class presentation, tease our pets, or re-enact Star Wars. Little did we know, these handheld tools can cause serious eye damage. There has been a recent increase in patients with severe eye injuries (including retinal burns, burry vision, and even blindness) from laser pointers. These small tools are powerful and many don't recognize the serious risk of eye damage if the laser comes in direct contact with your eye.
Because these "toys" are easy to get, there is a high risk of children misusing them. Improper use has affected the vision of pilots, vehicle operators, and the general public. When exposed to a strong laser, the natural protective mechanisms of the eye (like blinking) are helpless.
Never aim a laser pointer in someone's direction.
Keep laser pointers out of reach of children.
When purchasing a laser pointer, ensure the product is properly labelled (the label should include the manufacturers name and date of manufacture, a warning of exposure to laser radiation, and a class designation).
If you're ever exposed to a laser pointer and begin experiencing eye irritation, visit your doctor of optometry immediately.
As with television viewing, eye care professionals generally agree that video games will not harm your child's eyes or vision if you follow a few viewing tips.

One of my 5yo's professed career ambitions is "illustrator," so I was excited to share this picture book with her. We both liked the way that it compared two different illustrators as they worked on a similar project. It gave lots of interesting details about the job and the book industry without overloading the text with too much information for my little one. Great book!
This is an entertaining and informative book that explains the job of an illustrator. We read What Do Authors Do? several years ago and I liked that it described the process of writing and publishing a book. This book is very similar and details the process of creating the illustrations for a story. It shows that there are different styles, perspectives, media, and even ways to tell the same story. It's an inspiring book for young artists and we enjoyed reading it together.
My daughter (9) is artistic and this was a great explanation of something she appreciates. She loved the story about two illustrators who chose to illustrate the same book. It showed the processes they followed and the options faced. It explored the choice of mediums with examples of a few side by side and the role of editors. My daughter enjoyed it so much she insisted on reading it to me and her brother.
Loved reading this with the kids. When I was a kid, I loved to draw and I had no idea that one could do anything to make a living as an artist. It never occurred to me that someone illustrated books, cartoons, advertisements, etc. Both ds8 & dd5 enjoyed reading this with me and seeing what illustrators do. Both of them enjoy drawing quite a bit and it's good for them to know that they can continue their passions instead of turning them off in favor of income.
This was really a fun story.I think they should have a whole serious of book like this that describe the in's and out's of jobs and make all high schoolers read them. I think they should also add typical wages/pay checks, and how to get a job (How hard is it to get a job) and what kind of training you would need. Simple, yet complete.
I really enjoyed this book! As an artist myself, I can relate to the sometimes grueling process of creating a piece. I think that this book is an accurate depiction of what goes on in the life of an artist/illustrator. I loved how there was a comic strip going on along with the book's illustrations. This added humor and added to the story overall. I think children would really enjoy this book.
The unseen, abstract struggles of an illustrator are brought out in the open in this enlightening story of how illustrators tackle the challenges of the picture book, from figuring out the style of drawings to capturing the child's perspective.
This is a great book about illustrating although it goes into too much detail for the kindergarten kids that I use it with so I have to gloss over some of the information as they can't sit still for that long.
This books helps young artists see how much thought goes into making illustrations, and that it's not always the first thing they draw. It also discusses the different ways a story can be represented.
Done in a comic-book style with additional text. Good at explaining how illustrators do their work.
We liked the way the story was told from the perspective of the cat and dog, as well as the illustrators. A fun and thorough way to teach kids the illustrating process.
Super awesome overview of what book illustrators do. This is fantastic, especially for kids that worry about making every sketch perfect (even professional illustrators don't!).
This is a good informational book for An English class. It shows the process that illustrators go through to complete their work.
This book was a great introduction into what illustrators do to make such fantastic picture books! Very interesting!
How do I read it??
I liked it but I think having two different illustrators talking about illustrating got to be confusing in several places.
