A Representational Approach To Knowledge And Multiple Skill Levels For Broad Classes Of Computer Generated Forces, Larry J. Hutson Dec 1997

A Representational Approach To Knowledge And Multiple Skill Levels For Broad Classes Of Computer Generated Forces, Larry J. Hutson

Theses and Dissertations

Current computer generated forces (CGFs) in the 'synthetic battlespace', a training arena used by the military, exhibit several deficiencies. Human actors within the battlespace rapidly identify these CGFs and defeat them using unrealistic and potentially fatal tactics, reducing the overall effectiveness of this training arena. Simulators attached to the synthetic battlespace host local threat systems, leading to training inconsistencies when different simulators display the same threat at different levels of fidelity. Finally, current CGFs are engineered 'from the ground up', often without exploiting commonalities with other existing CGFs, increasing development (and ultimately training) costs. This thesis addresses these issues by …

Fundamentally Flawed: Extension Administrative Practice Part 1, Thomas F. Patterson Jr

Journal of Extension

The first of a two-part series addressing Extension administration, this commentary challenges traditional Extension administrative practice, arguing that current techniques are fundamentally flawed and inappropriate in the modern work place. The classical school of management is defined, and its underlying foundational assumptions are examined and ultimately rejected.

Integrating Extension In Natural Resources Graduate Education, Stephen B. Jones, James C. Finley Dec 1997

Integrating Extension In Natural Resources Graduate Education, Stephen B. Jones, James C. Finley

Journal of Extension

Traditionally graduate education is defined by a research project and is often complemented by classroom or laboratory teaching experience. Too infrequently, graduate educators do not capitalize on promising opportunities associated with the university's Extension mission. The nature of informal education often draws Extension faculty to contentious and timely issues that are characterized by either technology voids or awareness/knowledge shortfalls. Using case studies the article characterizes the research that is appropriate, describes the type of graduate students who may be attracted to this kind of project, and suggests a strategy for partnering and grantsmanship.

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.

An Assessment Of Relationships Between Actual And Perceived Caregiving Demand And Negative Impact Measures, Michele L. Mandrich Nov 1997

An Assessment Of Relationships Between Actual And Perceived Caregiving Demand And Negative Impact Measures, Michele L. Mandrich

Theses and Graduate Projects

Previous research has focused on the time spent and the tasks involved in caregiving and on care recipient characteristics in measuring caregiving demand and predicting negative impacts (Aneshensel, Pearlin, & Schuler, 1993; McKinlay, Crawford, & Tennstedt, 1995; Stull, Bowman, & Smerglia, 1994). However, the nature of the relationship between objectively measured caregiving demand and negative impacts for caregivers remains unclear. Researchers now note that assessing caregivers' perceptions of demand may be key in understanding negative impacts (Coverman, 1989; Litvin, Albert, Brody, & Hoffman, 1995; Loomis & Booth, 1995). This study assessed relationships between objective and subjective reports of caregiving demand …

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 …
