An Ethnographic Study Of In-Service And Pre-Service Teacher Collaboration In The Development And Execution Of Mathematics Lessons, Jessica Munns
An Ethnographic Study Of In-Service And Pre-Service Teacher Collaboration In The Development And Execution Of Mathematics Lessons, Jessica Munns
All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023
While much is known about effective strategies for teaching mathematics, less is understood about how to lead new teachers to employ research-based practices in their work. To address this issue we followed a Methods of Teaching Secondary and Middle School Mathematics course at Utah State University where collaboration between inservice and pre-service teachers was emphasized. This report documents examples of the implementation of research-based teaching practices by collaborative groups during the course. The structure of collaboration followed a lesson study model involving research and planning, execution and observation, and reflection and revision of lessons. Preservice and in-service teachers met twice …
Development And Implementation Of A Bayesian Model For Sediment Transport In Fluvial Systems, Mark Schmelter
Development And Implementation Of A Bayesian Model For Sediment Transport In Fluvial Systems, Mark Schmelter
All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023
Recent studies in the field of fluvial sediment transport underscore the difficulty in reliably estimating transport model parameters, collecting accurate observations, and making predictions due to measurement error and conceptual model uncertainty. There is a pressing need to develop models that can account for measurement error, conceptual model uncertainty, and natural variability while providing probability-based predictions as well as a means for conceptual model discrimination. The model presented in this research employs an excess shear sediment transport equation for a uni-size sediment bed developed in a Bayesian statistical framework. This statistical model provides a means to rigorously estimate distributions of …
Moving Object Tracking: Seeking Extensible Solutions, Jeremy Pack
Moving Object Tracking: Seeking Extensible Solutions, Jeremy Pack
Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects
Moving object tracking is a difficult field with no "best" solution. The documents contained here detail software that was developed in order to perform tracking of objects that are in the line of sight of multiple cameras. Some of the software developed is already in use by the US Army Dugway Proving Ground. Other software represents prototype or early development code. This software was written by Jeremy Pack, who was the lead programmer, and Luke Andrew at the Space Dynamics Laboratory in Logan, Utah.
A Development Of The Number System, Janet R. Olsen
A Development Of The Number System, Janet R. Olsen
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
This paper is based on Landau's book "Foundations of Analysis" which constitutes a development of the number system founded on the Peano axioms for natural numbers.
