Teaching Portfolios: Reflective Practice Of One's Own Learning, Kim Flottemesch

Looking beyond the actual product, the process of creating a teaching portfolio can have multiple benefits for the preservice teacher. Throughout the process, the individual is able to reflect on their own needs and strengths, offering an opportunity to reflect on one's learning and to articulate who one is as a teacher. It is this personal and individual portrait of one's self as a teaching professional that is a powerful tool of inquiry of the teacher as learner. This study examined preservice teacher; personal experiences of creating their own teaching portfolio. The study concluded that the process of portfolio creation …

Heritability Of The Resistance To Potato Leafhopper In Dry Bean, J.W. Gonzales, Dermot P. Coyne, Dale T. Lindgren, D. Schaaf, Kent M. Eskridge

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

The potato leafhopper (PLH), Empoasca fabae Harris is the most important Empoasca species attacking dry beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in North America. The objective of this study was to determine the heritability (h2) of PLH injury based on parent-offspring regression analysis of F3 means on individual F2 plants derived from crosses of pinto 'Sierra' (resisant) x great northern 'Starlight' (susceptible), and black bean 'Tacarigua' (resistant) x 'Starlight' (susceptible). Low narrow-sense heritability values of 0.29 ± 0.06 ± 0.28 ± 0.10, respectively, were obtained for the above crosses. The low narrow-sense heritability estimates indicated large environmental …

An Analysis Of Cost Overruns And Time Delays Of Indot Projects, Claire Bordat, Bob G. Mccullouch, Samuel Labi, Kumares C. Sinha

JTRP Technical Reports

A commonality among state Departments of Transportation is the inability to complete projects on time and within budget. This project assessed the extent of the problem of cost overruns, time delays, and change orders associated with Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) construction projects, identified the reasons for such problems, and finally developed a set of recommendations aimed at their future reduction. For comparison purposes, data from other states were collected and studied using a questionnaire instrument. The analysis of the cost overrun, time delay and change order data was done using an array of statistical methods. The literature review and …

Constructability, Maintainability, And Operability Of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (Frp) Bridge Deck Panels, Makarand Hastak, Daniel W. Halpin, Taehoon Hong Jan 2004

Constructability, Maintainability, And Operability Of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (Frp) Bridge Deck Panels, Makarand Hastak, Daniel W. Halpin, Taehoon Hong

JTRP Technical Reports

Recent advances in composite materials for civil engineering have created interesting possibilities for replacing conventional structural forms with components made out of fiber reinforced composite materials. Composite materials offer several advantages over conventional materials such as a superior strength/weight ratio, a better stiffness/weight ratio, a high degree of chemical inertness, and flexible custom design characteristics. Some of the potential down-stream benefits include lower life-cycle costs, lighter members, high corrosion and fatigue resistance, and higher live load capacity (Seible and Karbhari 1996). Composite materials are clearly having a major impact on how facilities are designed, constructed, and maintained. In order to …

Aviation : One Hundred Years Old., Sally M. Piccolo

USF St. Petersburg campus Honors Program Theses (Undergraduate)

Amidst the disturbing aftermath of September 11, 2001, the aviation industry is struggling to find a way to secure air travel in a world wrought with terrorist bombers, hijackers, and the like with one goal being to intimidate, subjugate, and demoralize innocent people around the world. Ensuring security and safety within a society is a daunting task, especially, in a free society, like that of the United States, where personal freedoms are the foundation of the nation. Regardless of your personal interpretation of the definition of freedom, the citizenry of the United States has historically reviled subjugation, intimidation, and demoralization …

The Economic Impacts Of Land Tenure Policy In Ethiopia. A Social Accounting Matrix (Sam) Based Computable General Equilibrium (Cge) Model Analysis, Hashim A. Ahmed

USF St. Petersburg campus Honors Program Theses (Undergraduate)

Policy reforms are an integral and continuing features of development economics. These reforms are motivated by a variety of factors like adjustment to debt crisis and recunent external price shocks, the failure of central planning in alleviating poverty and as an approach to accelerated economic growth, the continuing push for democratization which places poverty issues more prominent and the advance in economic theory are but a few. In the case of Ethiopia, the reason is more mundane. Although all of the above factors no doubt play a crucial role in the ongoing debate on the country's economic policies, the motivation …

Exploring How And Why Women Become Involved In Relationships With Incarcerated Men, Katherine L. Takas

USF St. Petersburg campus Honors Program Theses (Undergraduate)

The concept for this research project originated when in the 1990s there were local news stories concerning Oscar Ray Bolin, a serial killer who was being tried in Florida for the murders of women in Hillsborough and Pasco counties. His lawyer's wife met him, fell in love with him, and married him in a death row wedding ceremony. This case brought about questions such as: Why do women get involved with killers? How do they rationalize these types of relationships? Do they consider their relationships with inmates to be normal? How are these women different from women who are not …
