Diversity And Multiculturalism Of Lis Education, Selenay Aytac, Lai Ma, Devendra Potnis, Abebe Rorissa, Hsin-Liang Chen, Xiao Hu

Library and Learning Resources Faculty Research & Creative Works

The purpose of the panel is to raise the common questions about diversity and multiculturalism training in library schools, and engage the audience in a meaningful discussion about diversity and multiculturalism. We will discuss the importance of diversity and multiculturalism training in library and information science curricula by examining multiple countries/regions as case studies. We would be seeking answers to two major questions: "What do responsible library science educators need to do to educate librarians on diversity/multiculturalism/internationalism?" and "How can we educate future librarians so that they will have a greater perspective on diversity and multiculturalism?".

Self “Sensor”Ship: An Interdisciplinary Investigation Of The Persuasiveness, Social Implications, And Ethical Design Of Self-Sensoring Prescriptive Applications, Denise A. Baker

Psychological Science Faculty Research & Creative Works

This dissertation research investigates the social implications of computing artifacts that make use of sensor driven self-quantification to implicitly or explicitly direct user behaviors. These technologies are referred to here as self-sensoring prescriptive applications (SSPA’s). This genre of technological application has a strong presence in healthcare as a means to monitor health, modify behavior, improve health outcomes, and reduce medical costs. However, the commercial sector is quickly adopting SSPA’s as a means to monitor and/or modify consumer behaviors as well (Swan, 2013). These wearable devices typically monitor factors such as movement, heartrate, and respiration; ostensibly to guide the users to …

The referrals by country report shows the the top level country domain for sites that have directed users to cholars' Mine. Over the years, fewer and fewer browsers and search engines have passed along referral information, so this report now includes only a small fraction of repository traffic. This is why the numbers reported in Referrals reports will be lower than in Hits reports. Additionally, report will not include any referrals from three-letter domains, such as .com, .edu, or .org, as these referrals are assumed to come from sites in the United States.

Managing Risks Of Market Price Uncertainty For A Microgrid Operation, Sriram Raghavan Jan 2016

Managing Risks Of Market Price Uncertainty For A Microgrid Operation, Sriram Raghavan

Masters Theses

"After deregulation of electricity in the United States, the day-ahead and real-time markets allow load serving entities and generation companies to bid and purchase/sell energy under the supervision of the independent system operator (ISO). The electricity market prices are inherently uncertain, and can be highly volatile. The main objective of this thesis is to hedge against the risk from the uncertainty of the market prices when purchasing/selling energy from/to the market. The energy manager can also schedule distributed generators (DGs) and storage of the microgrid to meet the demand, in addition to energy transactions from the market. The risk measure …

Yik Yak Posts: A Discourse Analysis, Snehal Ravindra Shirke

Masters Theses

"Anonymity and geolocation create a unique environment for users to communicate with each other. Discourse analysis was conducted to study the posts made on Yik Yak, an anonymous social networking mobile application to understand the communication patterns on an anonymous platform and the posts about taboo topics. The posts were analyzed specifically for patterns on taboo topics and how students interact on the anonymous platform on a particular campus (Missouri S&T campus). Student research assistants coded the collected posts into the pre-defined taboo categories namely sexual activity, non-sexual bodily functions, sexual orientation, mental/emotional health, and "other" taboo topics. I found …
