Challenges Of Pedagogical Supervision In Côte D'Ivoire: When Three Supervisors Serve More Than 400 Teachers, Kouawo Patrice Touato Aug 2026

Challenges Of Pedagogical Supervision In Côte D'Ivoire: When Three Supervisors Serve More Than 400 Teachers, Kouawo Patrice Touato

International Programs

In Côte d'Ivoire, three pedagogical supervisors support more than 400 English language teachers in one regional education directorate. Nationwide, only 85 pedagogical supervisors serve thousands of English language teachers. Limited human and financial resources make regular classroom observation and individualized teacher support challenging.

Classroom observation can contribute to teacher professional development when it is implemented as a constructive process and supported by adequate institutional capacity thereby helping to implement the Competency-Based Approach (CBA) (Nguyen, 2021; UNESCO, 2017)

Remediation Of Dioxin-Contaminated Soil In Vietnam: Vietnam-U.S. Collaboration For A Cleaner Future, Thi Hang (Helen) Tran

International Programs

Dioxin (TCDD) from Agent Orange has persisted in Vietnamese soil and sediments for decades, posing serious risks to human health and ecosystems. Since the early 2000s, Vietnam and the U.S. have collaborated to remediate heavily contaminated “hotspots” at former military airbases. This poster compares current remediation technologies, evaluates their effectiveness, advantages, and limitations and highlights future solutions for sustainable and cost-effective cleanup.


Balancing Seismic Safety And Building Construction Costs In Nepal, Tika Bahadur Thapa Aug 2026

Balancing Seismic Safety And Building Construction Costs In Nepal, Tika Bahadur Thapa

International Programs

Nepal is highly vulnerable to earthquakes, yet construction affordability there remains a major challenge. The revised NBC 105:2025 introduced improved seismic design requirements compared with NBC 105:1994. However, the increased seismic demands require larger structural members and additional reinforcement, resulting in higher costs.

What If The Agricultural Sector Disappeared Tomorrow?, Valentina Tosso

International Programs

Agriculture is the foundation of our food, economy and well-being. Without it, there would be no food security, no clothing, no biofuels and no stability. This study explores why agriculture matters to everyone, the global challenges of feeding a growing population and how Argentina, as one of the world's most productive agricultural countries, can play a greater role in meeting that challenge if key economic and policy barriers are removed.

The study aims to examine the process of enrollment and continuation of higher education for young people with foster care backgrounds. An interview survey targeting students and alumni of campus-based support programs (CSP) for students with foster care backgrounds at two universities in the US Pacific Northwest was conducted. The data indicates that secure relationships with caring adults are a significant factor for those who experienced foster care, in order to gain the financial and holistic support to be successful in higher education.

Lorascan: Detecting Backdoor Prompts In Low-Rank Adapters For Large Language Models Via Down-Projection Activation Spike, Doniyorkhon Obidov, Honggang Yu, Xiaolong Guo, Kaichen Yang Aug 2026

Lorascan: Detecting Backdoor Prompts In Low-Rank Adapters For Large Language Models Via Down-Projection Activation Spike, Doniyorkhon Obidov, Honggang Yu, Xiaolong Guo, Kaichen Yang

Michigan Tech Publications

Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) enables efficient specialization and distribution of large language models through compact adapters. However, untrusted adapters introduce a supply- chain threat: a backdoored adapter can cause a model to gen- erate harmful content, malicious code, political propaganda, or covert advertisements when an input contains a hidden trig- ger. Adapter-agnostic defenses merge the adapter with the base model, which dilutes backdoor signals and reduces detection performance. Existing adapter-aware methods do not address how to safely use a potentially backdoored adapter. Instead, they either train a defensive adapter to repair a backdoored base model, addressing the inverse problem rather than …

Anthropogenic climate change is threatening global biodiversity, with sea turtles particularly vulnerable as offspring sex and developmental success are strongly influenced by incubation temperature. Behavioral plasticity, including the seasonal distribution of reproductive output, may provide short-term mechanisms for mitigating these impacts. Here, we investigated season-wide hatchling sex ratios and emergence success in a small population of green turtles (Chelonia mydas), tracking individual females across their nesting seasons. Sex ratios varied markedly through the nesting season, with later nests producing a greater proportion of male hatchlings. Moreover, sex ratios were relatively consistent among nests laid by individual females. Overall, females producing …


What Makes Implicit Bias Training Effective? An Examination Of Training Program Interventions And K-12 Educator Experiences, Kyleigh K. Mcaloon Aug 2026

What Makes Implicit Bias Training Effective? An Examination Of Training Program Interventions And K-12 Educator Experiences, Kyleigh K. Mcaloon

McNair Summer Research Program

Differences in disciplinary referrals based on race have led many to argue that bias may influence disciplinary decisions. Implicit bias (IB) training is designed to address such disparities by raising awareness of biases that may impact assessment of behavior and disciplinary decisions. In recent years, many have questioned the validity of IB as a construct and also the potential impact of training. Some scholars argue that these programs fail to produce meaningful behavioral change and may unintentionally reinforce or increase bias. The aim of the present study was to investigate how individuals receive and respond to such training. Sixteen K-12 …

The Measles Serology Initiative: A Quality Improvement Intervention To Increase Provider Compliance With Rubeola Serology Screening, Erika S. Martinez Aug 2026

The Measles Serology Initiative: A Quality Improvement Intervention To Increase Provider Compliance With Rubeola Serology Screening, Erika S. Martinez

Doctor of Nursing Practice Final Project Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this quality improvement (QI) project was to increase provider adherence to Rubeola IgG serology screening during prenatal visits at an outpatient women’s health clinic by 10% from a baseline adherence rate of 63.3%.

Background

Rubeola remains a highly contagious viral infection that poses health risks for nonimmune pregnant patients and their newborns. With increasing Rubeola cases and the importance of identifying immunity status during pregnancy, consistent prenatal screening practices are essential. Baseline data demonstrated inconsistent adherence to Rubeola IgG screening recommendations, highlighting the need for workflow interventions to improve provider compliance.

Methodology

A pre-post QI design …
