Teaching Sustainable Stormwater Management Using Project Based Learning, Niranjali Jayasuriya Jan 2008

Teaching Sustainable Stormwater Management Using Project Based Learning, Niranjali Jayasuriya

EDU-COM International Conference

Project Based Learning (PBL) is increasingly becoming popular as a teaching aid in many universities across Australia. The theory associated with the Stormwater Management course is taught to students by solving practical problems associated with real life situations. Persistent drought has resulted in treating stormwater as a valuable resource when securing sustainable water futures for capital cities across Australia; including Melbourne. Based on feedback from potential employers of Civil and Environmental Engineering graduates the Stormwater Management course at RMIT University was reorganized to be structured around a major stormwater project to facilitate learning. The project involves arrangements to manage stormwater …

Intuition, Morals, And The Legal Conversation About Gay Rights, Suzanne B. Goldberg Jan 2008

Intuition, Morals, And The Legal Conversation About Gay Rights, Suzanne B. Goldberg

Faculty Scholarship

When lawyers and judges converse in litigation, factual and legal analysis typically takes center stage. Yet, when the legal conversation turns to the rights of lesbians, gay men, and bisexuals, the ground shifts. Intuition and morals rationales often displace evidence-based reasoning. More specifically, arguments to limit the rights of lesbians and gay men tend to depend explicitly on intuition, and sometimes morality, in ways that contemporary arguments to restrict the rights of other social groups rarely do.

In addressing this dissonance, this essay has two central aims. The first is simply to observe the disproportionate openness to arguments based on …

The Effects Of Fluency-Building Strategies On The Oral Reading Rates Of First-Grade Students, Holly Walker Jan 2008

The Effects Of Fluency-Building Strategies On The Oral Reading Rates Of First-Grade Students, Holly Walker

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of explicit fluency-building strategies on the oral reading rates of first-grade students. According to the National Reading Panel (2000) there are five essential components of reading instruction: phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary and comprehension. All components are needed to achieve the complex skill of reading. Due to the reciprocal nature of these skills pertaining to reading, a deficit in any reading component can cause difficulties in learning to read (O'Connor, 2007). Therefore, reading fluency is critical to proficiency in reading. Specifically, this study investigated whether explicit instruction in fluency-building strategies …


Successful Pregnancy Outcome Following Laparoscopic Myomectomy: Case Report, R. B. Parkar, Sikolia Wanyonyi, W. J. Kamau, D. Otieno Jan 2008

Successful Pregnancy Outcome Following Laparoscopic Myomectomy: Case Report, R. B. Parkar, Sikolia Wanyonyi, W. J. Kamau, D. Otieno

Obstetrics and Gynaecology, East Africa

Laparoscopic myomectomy is now widely used as an alternative to laparotomy in the management of symptomatic uterine fibroids. The advantages of this minimal access approach outweigh those of the open techniques. The pregnancy outcomes between the two methods have been studied and are comparable, but there still exists a lot of scepticism locally concerning this. It is against this background that we present a 31 year old nulliparous lady who had a two year history of primary infertility secondary to multiple uterine fibroids, the largest being fundal and measuring 6.6cm. She underwent a successful laparoscopic myomectomy in November, 2006 and …
