Bureaucracy And Student Performance In Us Public Schools, Michael L. Marlow Aug 2001

Bureaucracy And Student Performance In Us Public Schools, Michael L. Marlow

Economics

This paper tests the hypothesis that monopoly power of school districts allows bureaucratic expansion and fosters poor academic performance in the public school system in California. Evidence indicates that monopoly power is positively associated with employment of administrators and teachers, and therefore supports the bureaucratic expansion hypothesis. While numbers of teachers do not influence performance measures, numbers of administrators are shown to positively affect performance - results that suggest that too many teachers, but too few administrators, are employed. While bureaucracy theory may explain the resource misallocation, other reasons might include rising public pressures on hiring teachers over administrators, spending …


Process Mapping And Scripting In The Accounting Information Systems (Ais) Curriculum, Roberta Ann Jones, Kathryn A.S. Lancaster Aug 2001

Process Mapping And Scripting In The Accounting Information Systems (Ais) Curriculum, Roberta Ann Jones, Kathryn A.S. Lancaster

Accounting

The ability to understand, document, and suggest improvements for a business process is an important skill for an accounting student for the following reasons: (1) efficient business processes give businesses a competitive advantage; (2) business process analysis provides auditors with an assessment of business risk; and (3) successful enterprise resource planning implementation depends on understanding and improving existing business processes. It is suggested that students be introduced to process mapping and scripting in an accounting information systems (AIS) course to facilitate their understanding of business processes and help them visualize the interaction between functional areas. The specifics of process mapping …

Secondary Level Screening Of Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii Mutants Defective In Circadian Gene Expression, Mingya Huang Aug 2001

Secondary Level Screening Of Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii Mutants Defective In Circadian Gene Expression, Mingya Huang

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

To elucidate the signal transduction chain mediating circadian clock control, this work focuses on the isolation of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii mutants which are defective in circadian gene expression. In a previous study, the reporter gene ARS2 encoding the arylsulfatase enzyme was fused to the promoter of the circadian-regulated CABII-1 gene and transformed into the Chlamydomonas nucleus. The ble marker was introduced into the genome of this transformant via insertional mutagenesis to generate mutants defective in circadian CABII-1 expression. Potential mutants were selected based on aberrant single-point accumulative arylsulfatase activity. In this study, the arylsulfatase activity over the entire growth cycle was …


Examining Children's Iep Knowledge And Preferences In The Special Education Process, Sharon Eagles Aug 2001

Examining Children's Iep Knowledge And Preferences In The Special Education Process, Sharon Eagles

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

According to IDEA (1997), students who receive special education must have an Individualized Education Plan (IEP). Student goals are a required portion of the IEP and can be developed, monitored, and evaluated with or without the student. The literature indicates personal involvement in goal setting increases commitment to achieve the goal, mastery of learning concepts, and intrinsic motivation (Muir, 2000). The purpose of this study was to investigate (a) students' knowledge of their IEP goals, (b) the level of participation students "liked" as depicted in 3 videotaped IEP development scenarios, and (c) the extent of students' participation in IEP goal …

On The Preparation Of High School Mathematics Teachers, Edna Maura Zuffi Aug 2001

On The Preparation Of High School Mathematics Teachers, Edna Maura Zuffi

Humanistic Mathematics Network Journal

In this paper I discuss some results got in 1997/98 with Brazilian mathematics school teachers. The research was done to investigate their mathematical language as related to the concept of function. A dichotomy was detected between “formal” and “practical” language they used to express their own conceptions of function, as well as to teach their students this subject. Also, I found teachers’ conceptual images “shrinking” as soon as they were far from their colleges or universities programs.

The Natural Role Of Mathematics In The Sciences: How Maharishi's Vedic Science Answers The Question Of The Unreasonable Effectiveness Of Mathematics In The Sciences, Catherine A. Gorini Aug 2001

The Natural Role Of Mathematics In The Sciences: How Maharishi's Vedic Science Answers The Question Of The Unreasonable Effectiveness Of Mathematics In The Sciences, Catherine A. Gorini

Humanistic Mathematics Network Journal

Mathematicians and scientists have for a long time tried to understand why mathematics, a subjective creation of the human intellect, is so effective in the sciences, which study the objective, physical world. Satisfactory reasons have not been found because there has not been a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between the subjective and the objective aspects of life. In this paper we will see that Maharishi’s Vedic Science, by explaining the link between the subjective realm where mathematics is located and the objective world that science examines, can resolve this problem in a natural way.
