Teacher Conceptions And The Curriculum: A Longitudinal, Multicase Study Of College Chemistry Teaching., Charles J. Killebrew Jan 1997

Teacher Conceptions And The Curriculum: A Longitudinal, Multicase Study Of College Chemistry Teaching., Charles J. Killebrew

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Strategic innovations and interventions to reform college science teaching will be required to promote the retention and achievement of those students who might otherwise elect to defect at the entry-level courses. The extent to which this can be achieved will depend upon educational research into ways that the science curriculum can be restructured to accomplish the dual function of enhancing science literacy while promoting recruitment to scientific careers. To explore these issues, four introductory college chemistry classes were observed over a period of two years. The classes were designated either as traditional or conceptual. Selection into these categories was based …

Educational Plans Of Community College Students: An Expansion Of Two College Choice Models., Lisa M. Smith-Vosper Jan 1997

Educational Plans Of Community College Students: An Expansion Of Two College Choice Models., Lisa M. Smith-Vosper

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

The purpose of this study was to determine if the factors posited by previous researchers to affect predisposition to attend college in high school students also affect the predisposition to transfer in the two-year college student population, and to investigate whether or not an expansion of the Hossler and Gallagher (1987) three-phase model of college choice and the Hossler and Stage (1992) Model of High School Students' Predisposition to College would yield great benefits. This analogy uses variables that have been advanced as effectual in the predisposition stage of the college choice process on the selected student population. The problem …

Characterization Of Monomer-Containing Monolayer Films On Au Surfaces., Robert J. Willicut Jan 1997

Characterization Of Monomer-Containing Monolayer Films On Au Surfaces., Robert J. Willicut

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Exploration into the nature of ultrathin, surface-confined films capable of electronic conduction has been the primary purpose of this dissertation. Specifically, the confinement of pyrrole monomer to Au surfaces through organosulfur linkages has been investigated. The synthesis of these new $\omega$-(N-pyrrolyl)alkanethiols is described herein. Cyclic voltammetry was utilized in this work to polymerize the monolayers and characterize the resulting films. Voltammetric analysis yielded currents in the correct potential region for poly(N-alkylpyrrole) charging/discharging. Other electrochemical studies revealed the ability of strong nucleophiles and electroinactive diluents to quench surface-confined polymer formation though they did not affect oxidation of the monomer. Exchange experiments …

The Production Of Glucooligosaccharides By Leuconostoc Mesenteroides Atcc 13146 And Lipomyces Starkeyi Atcc 74054., Sun Kyun Yoo Jan 1997

The Production Of Glucooligosaccharides By Leuconostoc Mesenteroides Atcc 13146 And Lipomyces Starkeyi Atcc 74054., Sun Kyun Yoo

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Glucooligosaccharides of less than DP 10 were produced either by mixed cultures of Leuconostoc mesenteroides ATCC 13146 and L. starkeyi ATCC 74054, or by an acceptor reaction produced by Leuconostoc mesenteroides ATCC 13146. The yields of glucooligosaccharides produced by mixed culture and acceptor reaction reached up to 49 and 90% of theoretical yield. The composition of carbohydrates at the end of fermentation by mixed culture was 31.4% oligosaccharides, 17.6% dextran, 31.4% mannitol, 2.1% fructose, and 2.4% of sucrose. The composition of carbohydrates at the end of fermentation by acceptor reaction was 32.7% pannose, 30.4% branched isomaltotetraose (DP 4), 21.7% branched …

Franz Liszt's Transcription Of Johann Sebastian Bach's Prelude And Fugue In A Minor (Bwv 543)., Tingwen Tina Shao Jan 1997

Franz Liszt's Transcription Of Johann Sebastian Bach's Prelude And Fugue In A Minor (Bwv 543)., Tingwen Tina Shao

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Franz Liszt's piano transcription of Johann Sebastian Bach's Prelude and Fugue in A Minor for organ (BWV 543) is the primary focus of this study. Liszt was a great admirer of Bach's works; therefore, his transcription is very true to the original, changes being made only to make the organ work more playable on the piano. Chapter One sketches the important roles of both composers in keyboard literature. Chapter Two includes information on Bach as an organist and transcriber during the Weimar (1708-1717) and Leipzig (1723-1750) periods. Chapter Three focuses on Liszt as an organist and his personal ideas for …

A Study Of Ralph Vaughan Williams's "An Oxford Elegy" And "Epithalamion"., Robert Joseph Taylor Jan 1997

A Study Of Ralph Vaughan Williams's "An Oxford Elegy" And "Epithalamion"., Robert Joseph Taylor

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Choral music occupies a central place in the compositional output of Ralph Vaughan Williams. Some pieces, such as the Sea Symphony (1909), Five Mystical Songs (1911), Mass in G minor (1922), and Serenade to Music (1938), have become standards in the choral repertoire. Others, such as Sancta Civitas (1925), Dona Nobis Pacem (1936) and Hodie (1954), may be less familiar, but have still received considerable critical acclaim. A few pieces remain relatively unknown even to choral conductors. Two choral works, Epithalamion (1957) and An Oxford Elegy (1949), fall into this latter category. This monograph is the first detailed study of …

Feminist Issues In "Scarecrow And Mrs. King" And In "Lois And Clark"., Sharon E. Broussard Jan 1997

Feminist Issues In "Scarecrow And Mrs. King" And In "Lois And Clark"., Sharon E. Broussard

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

"Feminist Issues in Scarecrow and Mrs. King and in Lois and Clark" looks at television portrayals of female leads in the female-male investigative team. The two series, which aired ten years apart, were chosen for their escapist and fantasy qualities. One hypothesis of this research was that the latter show, Lois and Clark, would exhibit more feminist tendencies. Episodes from each series were examined for events and dialogue significant to the presentation of the female lead. These events and dialogue were arranged into four categories: female-female relationships, female-male relationships, romantic involvements, and professional relationships. An encompassing element was also addressed …

Information Capacity Of The Carbohydrate Code, Roger A. Laine Jan 1997

Information Capacity Of The Carbohydrate Code, Roger A. Laine

Faculty Publications

Capacity for information in biological molecules is traditionally thought to reside in the primary sequence of proteins and RNA, recorded in the DNA. With the exception of some RNA molecules, proteins, if not structural, carry their information in binding sites for substrates of reactions, or in binding sites for control molecules. Some proteins bind to complex carbohydrates in a carbohydrate-specific fashion, including enzymes, lectins and antibodies. These carbohydrates, assembled by sequential glycosyl transferases, also carry biological information, the other side of which is a binding protein that recognizes a specific sugar monosaccharides, sequence, anomerity, linkage, ring size, branching and substitution. …

Numerical Simulation Of Geosynthetic Reinforced Earth Structures Using Finite Element Method., Surajit Pal Jan 1997

Numerical Simulation Of Geosynthetic Reinforced Earth Structures Using Finite Element Method., Surajit Pal

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Geosynthetics are widely used as reinforcements in various earth structures. Current design methods are based on some simplified assumptions and are primarily modified versions of limit equilibrium methods used in design of the unreinforced earth structures. All of these design methods are conservative and result in uneconomical design. The best method for verifying the design assumptions and studying the stress-deformation behavior of geosynthetic reinforced earth structures is by constructing a series of large scale test walls with adequate instrumentation and collecting data from them. But the cost involved in such a scheme precludes undertaking this kind of study. Thus Numerical …
