Developmental Mathematics In Two-Year Community Colleges And Student Success, Brenda Catherine Frame
Developmental Mathematics In Two-Year Community Colleges And Student Success, Brenda Catherine Frame
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
Poor success rates of developmental mathematics courses at community colleges have currently received nationwide attention. Efforts to remedy the situation include complete course redesigns and intervention strategies. A recent intervention strategy in use is the implementation of success courses that are aimed at changing the learning perspectives of developmental students. The purpose of this mixed-method comparative study was to closely examine this strategy as it relates specifically to students studying developmental mathematics at the lowest level at one community college. Students taking the lowest level developmental mathematics course at the participating community college were designated into one of two groups: …
Lessons In Loyalty: American Patriotism And Education In The Progressive Era, Cody Dodge Ewert
Lessons In Loyalty: American Patriotism And Education In The Progressive Era, Cody Dodge Ewert
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
Beginning in the late-nineteenth century an assortment of actors, alongside school administrators and teachers, pressed for the inclusion of national symbols, myths, and rituals in American schools. Amid a flurry of educational reform in the half-century following the Civil War, a nascent patriotic education movement recast schools’ relationship with the nation’s past in an attempt to shape its future. This mobilization began at the local and state levels, but through aggressive promotion patriotic education was a nationwide force by 1920, with several states adopting legal standards requiring outward expressions of patriotism in schools. Promoters of patriotic education sought to entrench …

Rescoring The Montana Risk Assessment Instrument: A Comparison Of Methods, Patrick David Mckay
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
The purpose of this research is to examine alternate ways to add meaningful weights to the risk factors on the Montana Risk Assessment Instrument (RAI). An evaluation is made which compares the predictive accuracy of a revised scoring system compared to the one that is currently in use. The data for this analysis is taken from 299 Montana juveniles who were administered the RAI after an offense, between January 01, 2009 to December 31, 2010. The results are based on a Burgess model, a linear probability model, and a logistic regression model. The findings suggest that all three models increased …
Restoring The "Shining Waters": Milltown, Montana And The History Of Superfund Implementation, David James Brooks
Restoring The "Shining Waters": Milltown, Montana And The History Of Superfund Implementation, David James Brooks
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
This dissertation is a case study of a dam removal and river restoration within the nation's largest Superfund site. In 1981, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency included Milltown Reservoir on its first list of Superfund sites. Superfund law capped two decades of the federal government's most aggressive environmental legislation. While tracking the national story of Superfund law, my story provides a local view of how individuals, organizations, and agencies shaped the Superfund process. After the EPA designated Milltown a national Superfund site, the environment itself, persistent work within the channels of public policy, and federally-mediated compromise helped restore some shine …
Sarah Palin, Conservative Feminism, And The Politics Of Family, Jasmine Rose Zink
Sarah Palin, Conservative Feminism, And The Politics Of Family, Jasmine Rose Zink
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
Female politicians are heavily constrained by discourses that prescribe masculine values as natural, yet at times they draw on societal expectations of femininity that allow them to utilize such discourses to their advantage. Motherhood, a feminine yet powerful role, provides such an opportunity. Capitalizing on this acceptable avenue of female power, women have strategically relied on maternal appeals since they first entered public life, often to challenge patriarchal social structures. Utilizing Lakoff‘s (2002) concept of the nation-as-family metaphor and informed by the pervasive myth of the traditional family, this analysis explores the consequences of Sarah Palin‘s use of maternal appeals …

Assessing The Role Of Shame And Honor During The Alta Conflict, Michael T. Bremmer
Assessing The Role Of Shame And Honor During The Alta Conflict, Michael T. Bremmer
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
For nearly a century the Sami peoples of Norway were subject to colonial policies of assimilation and integration. According to historians of the Sami, colonial processes stigmatized Sami individuals and the Sami culture, producing feelings of shame. The concept of shame, for both individuals and groups, centers on experiencing fear, pain, and/or uneasiness, and requires a judging audience. Honor is about individuals transcending self-interest and the need for individuals and groups to acquire self-esteem for that purpose; it also requires a judging audience. Concepts of shame and honor played an important role during the Alta conflict; a watershed moment in …
Praesentia Ex Machina: The Millennial Technoculture, Liveness And Theatre, Reid J. Reimers
Praesentia Ex Machina: The Millennial Technoculture, Liveness And Theatre, Reid J. Reimers
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
This work examines the modern technoculture, its component parts and the changing role of theatre in Anglo-American culture. Our contemporary society is marked by the ubiquity of digital technologies and has become reliant on their commodities. The emerging Millennial Generation has matured with many of these devices and has embraced the modern technoculture. Many changes in daily life brought on by new technologies are obvious, but fundamental shifts remain obscured by the nature of technology itself. These subtle transformations are cumulative and have caused a technological disorientation with broad reaching implications. Liveness, initially defined as that which is unrecorded, has …
A Comparison Of Metadiscourse Markers And Writing Quality In Adolescent Written Narratives, Susan Gold Sanford
A Comparison Of Metadiscourse Markers And Writing Quality In Adolescent Written Narratives, Susan Gold Sanford
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
Discourse, a series of sentences that communicates a topic, consists of two distinct yet connected components. The first element is the propositional content or the meaning of the sentences, and the second consists of the words and expressions that enhance the communicative efficiency and effectiveness of the factual message. Metadiscourse markers, members of the second linguistic category, guide the reader through the text and establish a means for the writer to interact or influence the reader. The use of metadiscourse in writing and speaking embodies the concept that communication is more than just the exchange of information, facts, and figures. …
Implementing Montana's Indian Education For All: A Phenomenological Study On The Experiences, Beliefs, And Practices Of Outstanding Providers Of Professional Development, Anna E. Baldwin
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
In 1999 the state of Montana included in its educational legal code a requirement that all Montanans learn about Montana's indigenous populations and that such knowledge be transmitted in a culturally sensitive manner. This law, called Indian Education for All (IEFA), has created challenges and rewards for educators. To learn to implement the law, teachers have participated in many types of professional development, especially since the mandate was funded in 2005. In some cases, these opportunities have been exemplary and effective, and more professional development must be offered to teachers. The purpose of this qualitative, phenomenological study was to describe …
Tradewinds And Traditions: Exploring The Archaeology Of German Gulch, William Travis Norman
Tradewinds And Traditions: Exploring The Archaeology Of German Gulch, William Travis Norman
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
The German Gulch Archaeological Collection, a result of archaeological investigation at German Gulch by Butte, Montana cultural resource management firm GCM and the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest during the late 1980s and early 1990s, represents a unique opportunity to explore ethnic relationships in rural Montana mining communities during the last half of the 19th century. The German Gulch site was a location of cultural interaction, between Overseas Chinese, European, and European American communities all focused on mining the mineral resources of the gulch. The collection presents an opportunity to test assumptions about bounded ethnic relationships as well as the process of …

Gender, Justice, And Jim Crow: North Carolina Judge Elreta Alexander And The Long Civil Rights Era, Virginia Lyndsay Summey
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
Elreta Melton Alexander (1919 – 1998) was a pioneering African-American attorney from Greensboro, North Carolina. Coming of age during the Jim Crow period of the South, she was the daughter of a Baptist minister and a teacher and grew up comfortably as a part of the black middle class. The descendant of two white grandparents, her bi-racialism formed her early awareness of colorism within the African-American community. Alexander received her Bachelor of Arts from North Carolina Agricultural and Technical University before going on to become the first African-American woman to graduate from Columbia Law School in 1945. In 1947, she …

Spare Some Change?: The Policing Of Shelter-Resistant Homeless In Missoula, Montana, Jacob Daniel Coolidge
Spare Some Change?: The Policing Of Shelter-Resistant Homeless In Missoula, Montana, Jacob Daniel Coolidge
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
Homelessness rates in the United States have continually increased over the past thirty years. The financial crisis of 2008 has created a ripple effect of unemployment, foreclosures, and an increased presence of homelessness in cities across the country. This increased presence of homelessness has created challenges for service providers and local governments across the country. Many cities, including New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco have implanted “Quality of Life” ordinances that criminalize certain facets of homeless life. Missoula, Montana has not been impervious to this trend and has a unique labor market that exaggerates the presence of poverty. In …

Off Risking: Offender Risk Assessment And The Correctional Assessment And Intervention System, Eden Heeder
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
In 2010 the State of Montana Department of Corrections (DOC) licensed the Correctional Assessment and Intervention System (CAIS) to address the high rate of recidivism among Co-occurring and Native American offenders. Montana DOC reported a significantly lower rate of revocation among the offenders assessed by the CAIS. Quantitative and Qualitative analyses were conducted to determine what aspects of the program facilitated the lower rates of revocation. Results of this analysis determined that several factors acting in concert contributed to the lower rates of revocation with the most meaningful contribution being that of rapport built between the probation officer and offender.
College Dating Couples' Use Of Conflict Management During A Prisoner's Dilemma Task: An Exploratory Study, Kristen E. Waldemayer
College Dating Couples' Use Of Conflict Management During A Prisoner's Dilemma Task: An Exploratory Study, Kristen E. Waldemayer
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
Dating violence that occurs in young college-aged couples is unique when compared to other types of violence. Aggression occurring in these couples is often bidirectional, highly impacted by situational stressors, and perpetrated by both males and females at relatively equal rates. Most importantly, dating aggression occurs within a developmental context when individuals are attempting to balance autonomy and intimacy within their relationships. However, little is known about conflict management within dating couples or if conflict management processes differ substantially for aggressive and non-aggressive dating couples. Although there has been extensive research in marital processes in conflict, only recently have researchers …

Coming To The Surface: The Environment, Health, And Culture In Butte, Montana, Stacie Lynn Barry
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
Butte is a small town in southwest Montana that was profoundly shaped by over a century of mining and smelting activities. Today, Butte is a post-industrial city that is the focal point of America's largest Superfund site as well as the nation's largest National Historic District. There are two types of remediation occurring in Butte: environmental and cultural. Environmental remediation occurs throughout the city, most notably at the operable units of the Butte Superfund sites. This remediation does not restore the environment to its original state but instead reclaims it to a level of risk deemed acceptable by the EPA. …
Developing Guiding Options For Educational Curriculum For Public Administrators In Tajikistan, Oleg Salimov
Developing Guiding Options For Educational Curriculum For Public Administrators In Tajikistan, Oleg Salimov
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
Since freeing itself from the autocratic control of the former Communist regime, the republic of Tajikistan has confronted numerous problems of underdevelopment which threaten to sink the republic in a new wave of authoritarianism and misery. Implementing democratic reforms aimed at modernizing a developing country requires a cadre of competent and professionally trained public administrators who understand and are committed to basic democratic values and sound administrative principles. Unfortunately, such a cadre does not now exist in Tajikistan and no educational program has yet been introduced to develop such a cadre. The answer does not lie in attempting to transfer …
