A Strategic Approach To The Transportation Planning Process, Edward A. Mierzejewski Jan 1998

A Strategic Approach To The Transportation Planning Process, Edward A. Mierzejewski

Journal of Public Transportation

The underlying premise of the urban transportation planning process is that we can forecast the future. The process typically develops 20-year forecasts of traffic volumes on each link of the transportation network. Planners then attempt to devise a master plan that represents an optimal solution for the forecasted conditions. The reality is that we cannot predict the future. Imponderable and unpredictable events will shape the future in ways we cannot hope to anticipate. In addition, social and political bias is a strong contributor to errors in anticipating future events and to our willingness to deal with uncertainty. This paper identifies …


Perceived Service Quality Attributes In Public Transport: Inferences From Complaints And Negative Critical Incidents, Margareta Friman, Bo Edvardsson, Tommy Garling Jan 1998

Perceived Service Quality Attributes In Public Transport: Inferences From Complaints And Negative Critical Incidents, Margareta Friman, Bo Edvardsson, Tommy Garling

Journal of Public Transportation

A sample of 200 complaints filed to a public transport company and 210 negative critical incidents (NCIs) obtained from on-board interviews were analyzed with the purpose of inferring perceived service quality (PSQ) attributes of public transport. The most frequent complaints and NCIs concerned employee behavior and punctuality, followed by missing or inaccurate information and inadequate planning. In a follow-up mail survey, a representative sample of 997 respondents reported if they remembered having experienced prototypical NCIs constructed on the basis of the complaints. Confirming the validity of the inferred PSQ attributes, all NCIs were reported to have been experienced by at …

The Cave Exploration Group Of East Africa And Volcanic Caves In Kenya, Michael Declan Kennedy Jan 1998

The Cave Exploration Group Of East Africa And Volcanic Caves In Kenya, Michael Declan Kennedy

International Journal of Speleology

This paper looks at the history of the Cave Exploration Group of East Africa with special reference to the exploration of volcanic caves. It demonstrates that the group has concentrated on two main areas, the Chyulu HiIls and Mt. Suswa, although other areas have also been studied. The Cave Exploration Group of East Africa has had to cope with various problems. The most important of which are related to the socio-economic conditions of a developing country. These problems have not prevented the group from making a valuable contribution to vulcanospeleology.

Attention Deficit Disorder : A Multimodal Treatment For A Multifaceted Disorder, Sara F. Freeman Dec 1997

Attention Deficit Disorder : A Multimodal Treatment For A Multifaceted Disorder, Sara F. Freeman

USF St. Petersburg campus Honors Program Theses (Undergraduate)

Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) afflicts many children, as well as adults, and can be damaging to a child's well being. As a result, physicians and researchers have invested a great deal of time in investigation [of] the reasons so many children suffer from the disorder. Additionally, searching for a cure has consumed much time and effort. While this goal has not yet been accomplished, researchers have made great advances towards alleviating the symptoms of the disorder. Recently, research has focused on multimodal therapy as an option. Consequently, the child with ADD has several treatments, or combination of treatments, from which …

Academic Freedom, Promotion, Reappointment, Tenure And The Administrative Use Of Student Evaluation Of Faculty (Sef): (Part Iv) Analysis And Implications Of Views From The Court In Relation To Academic Freedom, Standards, And Quality Instruction, Robert E. Haskell Nov 1997

Academic Freedom, Promotion, Reappointment, Tenure And The Administrative Use Of Student Evaluation Of Faculty (Sef): (Part Iv) Analysis And Implications Of Views From The Court In Relation To Academic Freedom, Standards, And Quality Instruction, Robert E. Haskell

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

In three previous papers, it was noted that while a controversial history of research on the reliability and validity of student evaluation of faculty (SEF) exists, it has not been typically viewed as an infringement on academic freedom. As a consequence, legal aspects of SEF are neither readily apparent, nor available. Moreover, SEF has not been generally seen as an infringement on, and detriment to, academic standards and quality instruction. The article is a review of SEF legal rulings analyzed in terms of their implications for academic freedom and quality of instruction in higher education.

The Use And Abuse Of Socrates In Present Day Teaching, Anthony G. Rud Jr. Nov 1997

The Use And Abuse Of Socrates In Present Day Teaching, Anthony G. Rud Jr.

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

The Greek philosopher Socrates is used as an example of a master teacher in in many contexts, from elementary school discussions, to college philosophy classes, to law school. I examine a number of current uses of Socratic teaching, and expose inconsistencies among them. I analyze critically recent practitioners of Socratic teaching, such as Mortimer Adler, and I consider how the celebrated primary teacher Vivian Gussin Paley enacts the Socratic legacy in a novel way. I argue that the misuse, or abuse, of the Socratic legacy occurs chiefly when his teaching is interpreted narrowly as a pedagogical technique devoid of context …
