Smelt Brook: An Autumn Snapshot
Abbott Run Annual Study 2010
Watershed Access Lab Projects
The purpose of our study was to make certain that Abbott Run met the standards of a Class A River. We are concerned that the Abbott Run remains a Class A river because it is the source of drinking water for Pawtucket, Rhode Island.
Abbott Run is located in the Western section of North Attleborough and is within the Blackstone River Watershed. Rhode Island to the West, and Plainville and North Attleborough to the South border the river. The Watershed section that is in North Attleborough is four square miles in size.
Land use is mostly single-family residential use except …

Hanson River Watch 2009-2010
Watershed Access Lab Projects
The Indian Head River is part of the large and complex system of streams and rivers, which contribute to the South Coastal Plain Watershed. A portion of the river forms the border to the Town of Hanson from where it flows into the main stem of the North River. Further upstream, the river is called the Drinkwater which itself drains into Factory Pond directly upstream of our study site A.
Historically the Indian Head, its headwaters and tributaries provided an important fishery for alewives, shad and rainbow smelt. However, the river suffered much the same as other river systems in …
The Mashpee River: Water Quality Index & Macroinvertebrates
The Mashpee River: Water Quality Index & Macroinvertebrates
Watershed Access Lab Projects
The Mashpee River is a short river, flowing only 5 miles before becoming tidal and draining into Popponesset Bay. In order to determine the overall water quality of our river, we ran tests on its levels of dissolved oxygen, BOD, temperature, pH, nitrates, phosphates, turbidity, and the presence of macroinvertebrates. A low level of dissolved oxygen is a sign of pollution, but our levels were better than ideal. Healthy pH levels for most fish fall between the values 5 and 9. Our pH levels were measured at around 6, well within the healthy range. Our river also maintained stable temperatures, …

Burr’S Pond And Runnins River: An Annual Watershed Survey, 2010
Burr’S Pond And Runnins River: An Annual Watershed Survey, 2010
Watershed Access Lab Projects
AP Biology students at Seekonk High School are required to complete an independent research project to fulfill the Ecology unit of the course during the summer prior to the course. Students must apply what they learned in their readings to a local ecosystem, Burr’s Pond which is attached to the Runnins River. Students spend time at the pond area during the summer documenting organisms, evidence of population dynamics, animal behavior, trophic levels, nutrient cycling, etc. Students put together a Burr’s Pond Summer Field Research Project Portfolio to be submitted on the first day of school. Student projects are displayed at …

Social Networks As Tools For Learning In Higher Ed, Aimee Mcalpine
Social Networks As Tools For Learning In Higher Ed, Aimee Mcalpine
EdTech Day
Social networks are ubiquitous in students’ (and many faculty members) non-academic lives. Facebook, My Space, LinkedIn, and Twitter have increasingly become part of our vernacular. The potential of social networks to connect and engage people with one another through various web-based mediums for free and with relative ease provides fertile ground for thinking about how these tools can enhance student learning in academic environments. This session will explore the possibilities and challenges of social using social networks with students for the purpose of academic learning. The presenters experience delivering a graduate course via a custom social network will be shared …

Mco Track: Using An Institution Wide Template In Lmss To Promote Best Practices In The Use Of Online Course Spaces, Aimee Mcalpine
EdTech Day
In early 2009, a primary goal of the Massasoit Online Learning Team became the promotion of the use of Quality Matters™ standards in the development of online spaces. As a means of supporting all Faculty in their pursuit of using a LMS to support F2F classes, teach hybrid courses, or teach fully online courses, templates were developed. Use of a template is optional and various training models have been implemented to support and promote the use of templates. This session will include:
- information about the development and implementation of the template;
- examination of the two templates currently in use; and …

Keynote: Teaching Outside The “Box”, Alexandra Pickett
EdTech Day
Web 2.0 has brought about a grassroots revolution resulting in a global democratization of access to tools, information, experts, content, and education, and in many ways has begun to change how education is delivered, conducted, and defined. I believe it is my obligation as a responsible netizen and educator in this moment to participate, to evaluate, to document, and to expose and engage students and faculty to and in this process. This presentation will endeavor to challenge and inspire you to think outside your box to consider possibilities for your own instruction. I will demonstrate my “box” and how I …

Objective: To present the case of a female collegiate basketball player who was diagnosed with Wegener granulomatosis of the eyes and immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy.
Background: A 19-year-old female collegiate basketball player presented to a rheumatologist, urologist, and nephrologist with severe eye pain and was diagnosed with Wegener granulomatosis and IgA nephropathy. At age 20, during routine follow-up testing, urine protein levels were found to be 3 times normal values (0-8 mg/dL), prompting the need for a kidney biopsy, which showed IgA nephropathy, another autoimmune disorder.
Differential Diagnosis: Sinus infection, scleritis, lymphomatoid granulomatosis, Churg-Strauss syndrome, lupus erythematosus, general granulomatosis.

Context: Grief is something that will touch all of us. We expect loss to occur in our personal lives and seem to be somewhat prepared for how to cope with it when it happens. In the profession of athletic training, we may not expect loss to occur as readily–especially if we are working with a young, seemingly healthy population. As such, when an athlete, student, or colleague suffers a catastrophic injury, illness, or death, we may not be able to process the loss and be left with unresolved grief.
Objective: The purpose of this article is to review theories on …
Beyond Sacrifice: Milton And The Atonement, Gregory Chaplin
Beyond Sacrifice: Milton And The Atonement, Gregory Chaplin
English Faculty Publications
In Paradise Lost, Milton imagines a cosmos at odds with orthodox theology, making a heretical departure that parallels his reluctance to dwell on the Crucifixion and his Arian Christology. Belief in a plurality of worlds threatens the integrity of the Trinity: it exalts the omnipotence of the creator, while it limits the significance of the redeemer. In effect, it produces a tension best resolved by Milton’s position that the Father and the Son are two distinct beings—the former uncreated, infinite, and immutable and the latter created, finite, and changeable. This distinction enables Milton to fashion a theory of salvation …
In Praise Of The Saints: Introducing Medieval Hagiography Into The British Literature Survey, John P. Sexton
In Praise Of The Saints: Introducing Medieval Hagiography Into The British Literature Survey, John P. Sexton
English Faculty Publications
Despite increased interest in hagiographic writing among scholars of early literature in the last few decades, serious study of saints’ lives in the undergraduate classroom remains rare. To some degree, this is a result of poor representation in the leading anthologies,[1]but another contributing factor has been the perception of a distinction between hagiographic and other medieval writing it terms of genre or of literary value. Such distinctions, however, are modern inventions, and do not accurately reflect the medieval reader or writer’s view. Nor is the inclusion of the literature alongside the expected “great works” difficult or jarring; a …
