E-Portfolio: More Than An Electronic Resume, N. Faye Angel

International Vocational Education and Training Association (IVETA) Conference

Paper-source portfolios have become instrumental in measuring learning and promoting one's accomplishments. However, they lack an interactive component and are frequently cumbersome to carry and disseminate. On-line career portfolios overcome many of the difficulties of paper-source portfolios and provide additional benefits. This article discusses these benefits along with the caveats of on-line portfolios and responsibilities of the network administrator and students.

Integrating Adult Learning Principles In Web Based Open Learning, Shyamal Majumder

International Vocational Education and Training Association (IVETA) Conference

It is evident that one of the driving forces towards a learning society resides in the role and power of information and communication technology. While the power and potential of technology is clear, the challenges lie in using technology wisely to advance the lifelong skills. The educational arena of web based learning is still in its infancy. While there are many institutions that are offering web based courses for adult learners, an in-depth understanding of the pedagogical issues related to integrating adult learning in web still remains an unexplored frontier. While literature provides some evidence of the effectiveness of using …

Industry Partnership For Graduation Stage Of Higher Vocational Education, Dan-Dan Shi, Xiao-Hong Chen

International Vocational Education and Training Association (IVETA) Conference

Vocational education has been developing rapidly in China these years’ Zhejiang University of Technology formulated a flowchart of industry partnership for the graduation stage in the light of characteristics and objectives of vocational education. After three years’ experiment in industry partnership, the college has been successful not only in the training of students’ ability of comprehensively applying what they learn into their work and in the training of their skill, but also in the preparation for their future employment. In this paper, the author makes a comparison between the traditional practice and the industry partnership in the graduation stage and, …

Search For Antiproton Decay At The Fermilab Antiproton Accumulator, S. Geer, J. Marriner, M. Martins, R. E. Ray, J. Streets, W. Wester

Gregory Snow Publications

A search for antiproton decay has been made at the Fermilab Antiproton Accumulator. Limits are placed on 13 antiproton decay modes. The results include the first explicit experimental limits on the muonic decay modes of the antiproton, and the first limits on the decay modes ℯ^-γγ and ℯ^-ω. The most stringent limit is for the decay modep̅→ ℯ^-γ. At 90% C.L. we find that τ _p̅¯ / B ( p̅→ ℯ^-γ)>7x10⁵ yr. The most stringent limit for decay modes with a muon in the final state …

A Factor Analysis Of Caucasian College Students' Perceptions Of Native American Women., Stephanie Larocque

Theses and Dissertations

This study examined Caucasian college students' perceptions of Native American women. The impetus of this study was the paucity of data pertaining to perceptions of Native American women. A trait scale derived from a modified Katz/Braly (1933) scale from LaRocque (1995) was presented to 478 Caucasian undergraduate college students at the University of North Dakota. The intent of this study was to scrutinize more closely this population's perceptions of Native American women via factor analytic techniques, and also to examine if participants perceptions of Native American women would differ significantly from their perceptions of women in general. The results indicated …

A Lattice Path Integral For Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics, Simon Catterall, Eric B. Gregory

Physics - All Scholarship

We report on a study of the supersymmetric anharmonic oscillator computed using a euclidean lattice path integral. Our numerical work utilizes a Fourier accelerated hybrid Monte Carlo scheme to sample the path integral. Using this we are able to measure massgaps and check Ward identities to a precision of better than one percent. We work with a non-standard lattice action which we show has an {\it exact} supersymmetry for arbitrary lattice spacing in the limit of zero interaction coupling. For the interacting model we show that supersymmetry is restored in the continuum limit without fine tuning. This is contrasted with …

An Approximation To Miscible Fluid Flows In Porous Media With Point Sources And Sinks By An Eulerian-Lagrangian Localized Adjoint Method And Mixed Finite Element Methods, Hong Wang, Liang Dong, Richard E. Ewing, Stephen L. Lyons, Guan Qin

Faculty Publications

We develop an Eulerian–Lagrangian localized adjoint method (ELLAM)-mixed finite element method (MFEM) solution technique for accurate numerical simulation of coupled systems of partial differential equations (PDEs), which describe complex fluid flow processes in porous media. An ELLAM, which was shown previously to outperform many widely used methods in the context of linear convection-diffusion PDEs, is presented to solve the transport equation for concentration. Since accurate fluid velocities are crucial in numerical simulations, an MFEM is used to solve the pressure equation for the pressure and Darcy velocity. This minimizes the numerical difficulties occurring in standard methods for approximating velocities caused …

Fipronil Metabolism, Oxidative Sulfone Formation And Toxicity Among Organophosphate- And Carbamate-Resistant And Susceptible Western Corn Rootworm Populations , Michael E. Scharf, Blair D. Siegfried, Lance J. Meinke, Laurence D. Chandler

Department of Entomology: Faculty Publications

Fipronil toxicity and metabolism were studied in two insecticide-resistant, and one susceptible western corn rootworm (Diabrotica virgifera virgifera, LeConte) populations. Toxicity was evaluated by exposure to surface residues and by topical application. Surface residue bioassays indicated no differences in fipronil susceptibility among the three populations. Topical bioassays were used to study the relative toxicity of fipronil, fipronil. the mono-oxygenase inhibitor piperonyl butoxide, and fipronil's oxidative sulfone metabolite in two populations (one resistant with elevated mono-oxygenase activity). Fipronil and fipronil-sulfone exhibited similar toxicity and application of piperonyl butoxide prior to fipronil resulted in marginal effects on toxicity. Metabolism of …

Magnetic Localization In Transition-Metal Nanowires, Ralph Skomski, H. Zeng, M. Zheng, David J. Sellmyer

David Sellmyer Publications

Magnetization reversal in transition-metal nanowires is investigated. Model calculations explain why magnetization reversal is localized, as opposed to the sometimes assumed delocalized coherent-rotation and curling modes. The localization is a quite general phenomenon caused by morphological inhomogenities and occurring in both polycrystalline and single-crystalline wires. In the polycrystalline limit, the competition between interatomic exchange and anisotropy gives rise to a variety of random-anisotropy effects, whereas nearly single-crystalline wires exhibit a weak localization of the nucleation mode. Model predictions are used to explain the coercive and magnetic-viscosity behavior of Co (and Ni) nanowires electrodeposited in self-assembled alumina pores.
