The Boy Strangling The Goose: Genre Figure Or Mythological Symbol?, Brunilde S. Ridgway

Classical and Near Eastern Archaeology Faculty Research and Scholarship

Kunze has suggested that Hellenistic sculpture depicting themes of everyday activities that are traditionally classified as genre Subjects may carry very different meanings. This note argues that, in Graeco-Roman terms, the chubby personage in depictions of the Boy Strangling the Goose is not simply a child but the personification of Dienysos/Harpokrates; the goose is not a household pet but an evil spirit over which the Divine Child triumphs. The manner of the representation is Greek and can be read at a superficial level; the deeper content is Egyptian and contains a symbolic message of rebirth and victory.

Age-Associated Changes In Hearts Of Male Fischer 344/Brown Norway F1 Rats, Ernest M. Walker Jr., Michael S. Nillas, Elsa I. Mangiarua, Sylvestre Cansino, Ryan G. Morrison, Romaine R. Perdue, William E. Triest, Gary L. Wright, Mark Studeny, Paulette Wehner, Kevin M. Rice, Eric R. Blough

MIIR Faculty Research

Aging is associated with left ventricular hypertrophy, dilatation, and fibrosis of the heart. The Fischer 344/Brown Norway F1 (F344/BNF1) rat is recommended for age-related studies by the National Institutes on Aging because this hybrid rat lives longer and has a lower rate of pathological conditions than inbred rats. However, little is known about age-associated changes in cardiac and aortic function and structure in this model. This study evaluated age-related cardiac changes in male F344/BNF1 rats using ECHO, gross, and microscopic examinations. Rats aged 6-, 30-, and 36-mo were anesthetized and two-dimensional ECHO measurements, two-dimensional guided M-mode, Doppler M-mode, and other …

Effect Of Varying Metabolizable Energy And Crude Protein Concentrations In Diets Of Pearl Gray Guinea Fowl Pullets 1. Growth Performance, Samuel N. Nahashon, Nathaniel Adefope, Abravi Amenyenu, D. Wright

Agricultural and Environmental Sciences Faculty Research

This study was undertaken to assess dietary ME and CP concentrations for optimum growth performance of Pearl Gray guinea fowl pullets. In a 3 × 3 factorial arrangement, 540 one-day-old Pearl Gray guinea keets were randomly assigned to experimental diets with 2,900, 3,000, and 3,100 kcal of ME/kg of diet, each containing 20, 22, and 24% CP, respectively, from 0 to 8 wk of age (WOA). From 9 to 16 WOA, these diets were adjusted to contain 3,000, 3,100, and 3,200 kcal of ME/ kg, and each had 17, 19, and 21% CP, respectively. Each dietary treatment was replicated 4 …

The Art of Democracy / Democracy as Art: Creative Learning in Afterschool Comic Book Clubs
By Michael Bitz
Over the past three years, hundreds of community-based afterschool comic book clubs have been launched in cities across the United States. These clubs have drawn in thousands of underserved youths in grades 1–12. In these clubs, children plan, write, sketch, design, and produce original comic books and then publish and distribute their works for other children in the community to use as learning and motivational tools. This synthetic and analytic research project explores the dynamics, outcomes, and impacts of afterschool comic book …

In August of this year I became director of Women’s and Gender Studies. Although it’s been busy, it has been a joy to join this thriving program with its engaged and engaging faculty and students and to be able to work with our dedicated office team: associate director Rose Holz, long-time secretary Glenda Moore, graduate assistant Melissa Swihart, and our work study student worker Chelsey Gallagher. I am very grateful to all the past Women’s Studies directors, particularly Joy Ritchie and Barbara DiBernard, who built such a healthy program.

Application Of Differentiation And Universal Design For Learning In The Second Grade Science Curriculum, Tami Wootton Flach

Regis University Student Publications (comprehensive collection)

Differentiated instruction (DI) and Universal Design for Learning (UDL) are philosophies that serve as teaching methodologies that address the needs of diverse learners in the regular classroom. Furthermore, DI can be used to engage students in instruction through different modalities, appeal to different interests, and use varied rates of instruction along with varied degrees of complexity. Also, UDL is an extension of DI, wherein the teacher provides alternatives that are built into the curriculum and suitable for most students. Additionally, the UDL model can be supported by the six principles of effective curriculum (Kame'emui & Simmons, 1999) to design curricular …

Agendas, Arguments, And Political Theory, John D. Harman, Deborah Vanderbilt

Political Science Faculty/Staff Publications

If teaching is not the oldest profession, it certainly has a long historical pedigree. The frustrations teaching evokes likely have an equally long pedigree. One sees in Plato's Republic, for example, Socrates' frustration in trying to convey to Glaukon the aims of the educational scheme he is presenting to his interlocutors in Book 8. His evident difficulties relaying this information have doubtless struck sympathetic chords in the breasts of countless generations of teachers. Frustration has certainly been the case for the present authors, particularly in teaching the analysis and understanding of secondary commentary on classic texts; when reading such …
