The Nature Of The "In-Between" In D.W. Winnicott's Concept Of Transitional Space And In Martin Buber's Das Zwischenmenschliche, Laura Praglin

UNIversitas: Journal of Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activity

Martin Buber (1878-1965), German Jewish social philosopher and theologian, and D.W. Winnicott (1896-1971), British pediatrician and psychoanalyst, portray in vibrant detail the reality of the “in-between”. Although contemporaries, they were separated by country and profession, and did not know each other. Yet both set forth in their writings remarkably complementary views concerning “in-between space”--the transitional area, to Winnicott, or das Zwischenmenschliche to Buber. This is a meeting-ground of potentiality and authenticity, located neither within the self nor in the world of political and economic affairs. In this space, one finds the most authentic and creative aspects of our personal and …

Fine Details Of The Nodal Electronic Excitations In Bi2sr2cacuso8+Delta, T. Valla, T. E. Kidd, J. D. Rameau, H.-J. Noh, G. D. Gu, P. D. Johnson, H.-B. Yang, H. Ding

Faculty Work

Very high energy resolution photoemission experiments on high quality samples of optimally doped Bi₂Sr₂CaCu₂O_8+δ show new features in the low-energy electronic excitations. A marked change in the binding energy and temperature dependence of the near-nodal scattering rates is observed near the superconducting transition temperature, T_C. The temperature slope of the scattering rate measured at low energy shows a discontinuity at T_C. In the superconducting state, coherent excitations are found with the scattering rates showing a cubic dependence on frequency and temperature. The superconducting gap has a d-wave magnitude …

The Economic Inefficiency Of Title Ix, Alicia Irons

Major Themes in Economics

Title IX of the Educational Amendment Act of 1972 has expanded the opportunity for women in athletics. At the same time, it has been detrimental to men’s athletics. The elimination of men’s teams is analyzed through a theoretical model and empirical evidence. College athletic departments have used an inefficient method to comply with Title IX because they use the method the NCAA encourages. The NCAA needs to reevaluate the methods that it has encouraged and improvements should be made to Title IX.

What Happened When A Mathematician Found Himself Funded By The National Endowment For The Humanities, Joel K. Haack

UNIversitas: Journal of Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activity

Exploring the relationships between mathematics and the humanities can be stimulating for both faculty and students. That there are connections should surprise no one in interdisciplinary studies, but finding them might prove to be more difficult; humanists and mathematicians have not been involved in extensive dialogue in recent years. This study provides a field guide to the kinds of connections that one might find with examples of each.

Rounding Up Students' Conceptions On Circular Motion, Shannon Mclaughlin

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

The purpose of this paper is to provide insight on how introducing circular motion with a carefully designed sequence of demonstrations and activities consistent with the national standards, pedagogical knowledge, and research-based instructional practices can flush out students' conceptions of forces and motion, and set a conceptual foundation for understanding uniform circular motion. This article promotes National Science Education Content Standards A, B, and E, and Iowa Teaching Standards 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Circuits Without Wires?: Helping Students Understand The Power Of Ions, Elizabeth Potter, Caroline Kelly

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

The activity described here provides an inquiry experience using familiar materials to promote student exploration and understanding of ions and ionic compounds. Familiar materials throughout the laboratory help students relate science to the real world and students are able to use their understanding of those materials. This activity uses an inquiry approach that requires students to make more decisions about their experiment, but does not expect students to discover scientific ideas. This article identifies many ways that the nature of science should be incorporated into the learning experience so that students improve their understanding of what science is and how …
