Effacement And Metaphor: Searching For The Body In Educational Discourse, Keith Nainby, Deanna Fassett Oct 2008

Effacement And Metaphor: Searching For The Body In Educational Discourse, Keith Nainby, Deanna Fassett

Faculty Publications

This essay concerns the body’s positioning in discussions of teaching, specifically focusing on the authors’ efforts to trace discursive invocations of teachers’ bodies by students reflecting on the teaching vocation. The authors explore, through a series of intertwined autoethnographic narratives, the research process that led them through focus group data collection and analysis, to reflections on students’ metaphorical use of the “teacher’s body” in these focus groups, to (in light of feedback from anonymous reviewers) the role of the authors’ own teachers’ bodies in constituting this research and its implications.


Heat-Shock Protein 70 (Hsp70) Expression In Four Limpets Of The Genus Lottia: Interspecific Variation In Constitutive And Inducible Synthesis Correlates With In Situ Exposure To Heat Stress, Yunwei Dong, Luke Miller, Jon Sanders, George Somero Oct 2008

Heat-Shock Protein 70 (Hsp70) Expression In Four Limpets Of The Genus Lottia: Interspecific Variation In Constitutive And Inducible Synthesis Correlates With In Situ Exposure To Heat Stress, Yunwei Dong, Luke Miller, Jon Sanders, George Somero

Faculty Publications, Biological Sciences

Limpets of the genus Lottia occupy a broad vertical distribution on wave-exposed rocky shores, a range that encompasses gradients in the frequency and severity of thermal and desiccation stress brought on by aerial emersion. Using western blot analysis of levels of heat-shock protein 70 (Hsp70), we examined the heat-shock responses of four Lottia congeners: Lottia scabra and L. austrodigitalis, which occur in the high-intertidal zone, and L. pelta and L. scutum, which are restricted to the low- and mid-intertidal zones. Our results suggest distinct strategies of Hsp70 expression in limpets occupying different heights and orientations in the rocky intertidal zone. …

Word Sense Disambiguation In Biomedical Ontologies With Term Co-Occurrence Analysis And Document Clustering, Bill Andreopoulos, Dimitra Alexopoulou, Michael Schroeder Sep 2008

Word Sense Disambiguation In Biomedical Ontologies With Term Co-Occurrence Analysis And Document Clustering, Bill Andreopoulos, Dimitra Alexopoulou, Michael Schroeder

Faculty Publications, Computer Science

With more and more genomes being sequenced, a lot of effort is devoted to their annotation with terms from controlled vocabularies such as the GeneOntology. Manual annotation based on relevant literature is tedious, but automation of this process is difficult. One particularly challenging problem is word sense disambiguation. Terms such as |development| can refer to developmental biology or to the more general sense. Here, we present two approaches to address this problem by using term co-occurrences and document clustering. To evaluate our method we defined a corpus of 331 documents on development and developmental biology. Term co-occurrence analysis achieves an …

Climate Change Education And The Ecological Footprint, Eugene C. Cordero, Anne Marie Todd, Diana Abellera Jun 2008

Climate Change Education And The Ecological Footprint, Eugene C. Cordero, Anne Marie Todd, Diana Abellera

Faculty Publications, Meteorology and Climate Science

Global warming has become one of the most important scientific, political, and social issues of our era. In designing an effective mitigation strategy, it is clear that public education must play an important role. This study looks at various components of climate change literacy within a cohort of university students and investigates the impact of action-oriented learning on student understanding. Results from questionnaires given to primarily nonscience students enrolled in weather and climate courses are used to examine student knowledge of climate change. In agreement with prior research, this study finds that signif icant student misconceptions exist regarding the causes …

The Creation Of A Multimedia Orientation To The Department Of Library And Information Science, University Of Delhi: A Systems Analysis, M. Madhusudhan, Reetu Verma May 2008

The Creation Of A Multimedia Orientation To The Department Of Library And Information Science, University Of Delhi: A Systems Analysis, M. Madhusudhan, Reetu Verma

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

Student orientation programs in university departments play a vital role in communication between the department and its students. This article is an outcome of the study made for designing the multimedia orientation of the Department of Library and Information Science (DLIS), University of Delhi. Multimedia orientation programmes can inform new and visitigin students and external visitors about the department, faculty, teaching methods, research, library facilities and infrastructure provided by the department in an more efficient and interactive way.


Availability And Accessibility Of Information Sources And The Use Of Library Services At Michael Okpara University Of Agriculture, Akobundu Dike Ugah May 2008

Availability And Accessibility Of Information Sources And The Use Of Library Services At Michael Okpara University Of Agriculture, Akobundu Dike Ugah

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

Using the case study method, the author investigated the availability and accessibility of information sources and the use of library services in the university library, Michael University of Agriculture, Umudike, Abia State, Nigeria. The population was made up of 1,000 registered library users, with a random sample of 200. A response rate of 168 was recorded. The study revealed that information sources in the library are not readily available nor easily accessible and concludes that the independent variables of availability and accessibility have influence on, and a significant relationship with, the use of library services.
