Lactate Testing Revisited: A Reliable Indicator Of Training Progress For All Swimmers., Stasinos Stavrianeas, Al Stephenson Feb 2007

Lactate Testing Revisited: A Reliable Indicator Of Training Progress For All Swimmers., Stasinos Stavrianeas, Al Stephenson

International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education

We examined the use of lactate testing to monitor training progress in swimming at a small liberal arts college, using an inexpensive handheld lactate analyzer. The tests were carried out by undergraduates as part of their investigative learning curriculum in exercise science. Twelve female athletes participated in a 2-year program of periodic testing using a 5 × 200 swim of increasing intensity. Blood lactate values were measured from a sample obtained 2-4 min after each swim, plotted against swim time, and the maximal lactate steady state (MLSS) was identified. MLSS improved significantly throughout the training period (higher by 0.56 mmol/L …

Collaboration Between Architects And Planners In An Urban Design Studio: Potential For Interdisciplinary Learning, Sonia Hirt, Andreas Luescher Jan 2007

Collaboration Between Architects And Planners In An Urban Design Studio: Potential For Interdisciplinary Learning, Sonia Hirt, Andreas Luescher

Architecture and Environmental Design Faculty Publications

Design professionals need to acquire competencies in interdisciplinary, collaborative design practice. Proceeding from this assumption, this paper analyses a case study of a joint project between an architecture studio at Bowling Green State University and a planning seminar at the University of Toledo. Students working in extramural teams developed proposals for the revitalization of a plaza in Toledo, an historic city in Ohio. The plaza, which in architectural terms represents a blend of Gilded-Age finery, high-order contemporary work and stretches of decay, is in the process of slow regeneration. The main goals were: 1) pedagogical - to enhance the students' …

Using Distance Education To Prepare School Administrators: Pitfalls And Effective Practice, Theodore J. Kowalski Jan 2007

Using Distance Education To Prepare School Administrators: Pitfalls And Effective Practice, Theodore J. Kowalski

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

The employment of practitioners and the expansion of distance education courses have become controversial issues in the preparation of school administrators. In large measure, both actions have been condemned by many senior professors, primarily because they believe that college administrators have pursued them for economic reasons rather than for educational improvement. First, the merits of this perception are examined. Second, the pitfalls and promises of each issue are identified and then recommendations are made for improving practice. The potentialities of involving practitioners in professional preparation and making pre-service and in-service education more accessible via distance education will not be realized …


Preservice Teachers’ Knowledge Of Instructional Scaffolding For Writing Instruction, Sharan A. Gibson Jan 2007

Preservice Teachers’ Knowledge Of Instructional Scaffolding For Writing Instruction, Sharan A. Gibson

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

This study reports on an analysis of preservice teachers’ dialogue journal entries for evidence of ways in which teachers develop conceptual understanding for writing instruction. Teachers’ propositional statements were identified and coded at a specific level for three themes: (1) level of instructional scaffolding, (2) focus of proposed instruction, and (3) hierarchical levels of language. The study identified a set of dilemmas faced by teachers as they developed pedagogical content knowledge for writing instruction, centered on participants’ assumptions regarding a direct, causal relationship between the provision of models for effective writing and the improvement of students’ expertise for writing.

The Clep Program: An Evaluation And Assessment At A Small Private University, William Beaver, Stephen T. Paul Jan 2007

The Clep Program: An Evaluation And Assessment At A Small Private University, William Beaver, Stephen T. Paul

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

The Educational Testing Service (ETS) created the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) in 1965 and over the years it has become a staple of American higher education. In order to better understand the ramifications of the CLEP program, this article provides a brief history of CLEP and reexamines some of the findings of earlier research. The present study investigates new areas by addressing several research questions. For instance, what are the impacts of a student’s age, academic ability, gender, and previous learning experiences in regard to passing a CLEP exam? How much time do students spend in preparing for CLEP, …

Using Internet Technology To Apply And Extend Research From The Past: Reviving Work On Instructor Notes And Review Questions, Mark Grabe Jan 2007

Using Internet Technology To Apply And Extend Research From The Past: Reviving Work On Instructor Notes And Review Questions, Mark Grabe

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

The theme of the 2006 MWERA conference, Teaching and Learning in an Electronic Era, offered an opportunity to reflect on opportunities and challenges created by new technologies. This paper focuses on applied educational research and identifies a set of interrelated research opportunities enabled because of the Internet. While these opportunities are explored using two specific examples (Instructor Notes and Review Questions), it seems reasonable that similar opportunities exist with other topics.

Evolutionary Systems Theory, Universities, And Endogenous Regional Economic Development, William M. Bowen Jan 2007

Evolutionary Systems Theory, Universities, And Endogenous Regional Economic Development, William M. Bowen

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

Universities today are increasingly being viewed in terms of serving the purpose of economic development. This paper postulates that their chief purpose is to advance knowledge and that in doing so they effectuate regional economic growth and development through processes specified in the endogenous economic growth model. To achieve this purpose and to contribute optimally to regional economic growth and development arguably requires coherent educational policies. The central proposition is that to formulate coherent educational policies for endogenous regional economic development requires placement of a theory of the advancement of knowledge at the center of related policy deliberations. An evolutionary …

Using Research To Inform Fledgling Professional Development Schools: Data-Driven Decision Making, Sharon J. Damore, Katherine Kapustka Jan 2007

Using Research To Inform Fledgling Professional Development Schools: Data-Driven Decision Making, Sharon J. Damore, Katherine Kapustka

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

The Urban Professional Development School (PDS) Network represents a group of professional educators from a large, urban university and six public and private schools in the same metropolitan area committed to providing progressive models of professional development for teachers across the lifespan. This paper demonstrates how participants in this initiative have used existing research literature and their initial research to inform their PDS work and create a sustainable and informative research agenda that can inform the work of all PDS participants.
