Constructing An "Appropriate" Education In Florida Special Education Due Process Final Orders, Michelle Henry Nov 2014

Constructing An "Appropriate" Education In Florida Special Education Due Process Final Orders, Michelle Henry

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This study examined how Florida administrative law judges (ALJs) constructed an appropriate education for students with disabilities in their final orders. This study utilized the Johnstone Method as a heuristic in analyzing the data. It examined the construction of an appropriate education from the implementation of PL 94-142 up to the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Board of Education v. Rowley (1975-1978), after the Rowley decision (1983-1986), and after the reauthorization of the Individual with Disabilities Education Act in 2004 (2004-2007). Each time period was examined individually and then the results were compared. The data sources included six purposively sampled …

Work-Life Balance Satisfaction: An Analysis Of Gender Differences And Contributing Factors, Amy B. Wilson, Maria Vilardo, Renee Fellinger, Trish Dellenbeck Nov 2014

Work-Life Balance Satisfaction: An Analysis Of Gender Differences And Contributing Factors, Amy B. Wilson, Maria Vilardo, Renee Fellinger, Trish Dellenbeck

New York Journal of Student Affairs

This descriptive study examined the differences in men and women’s perceived satisfaction with work-life balance and current job, as well as the factors that contribute to satisfaction in both areas. While women generally indicated lower levels of satisfaction overall with both work-life balance and their current job, the difference between women and men was not statistically significant. Multiple personal and professional factors positively correlated with work-life balance satisfaction, and women and men identified similar factors that contribute to their current satisfaction.


Longer Gestation Among Children Born Full Term Influences Cognitive And Motor Development, Emma V. Espel, Laura M. Glynn, Curt A. Sandman, Elyssia Poggi Davis Nov 2014

Longer Gestation Among Children Born Full Term Influences Cognitive And Motor Development, Emma V. Espel, Laura M. Glynn, Curt A. Sandman, Elyssia Poggi Davis

Psychology Faculty Articles and Research

Children born preterm show persisting impairments in cognitive functioning, school achievement, and brain development. Most research has focused on implications of birth prior to 37 gestational weeks; however, the fetal central nervous system continues to make fundamental changes throughout gestation. Longer gestation is associated with reduced morbidity and mortality even among infants born during the period clinically defined as full term (37–41 gestational weeks). The implications of shortened gestation among term infants for neurodevelopment are poorly understood. The present study prospectively evaluates 232 mothers and their full term infants (50.4% male infants) at three time points across the first postnatal …

Students’ Perceptions Of And Responses To Teaching Assistant And Peer Feedback, Kelsey J. Rodgers, Aladar K. Horvath, Hyunyi Jung, Amanda S. Fry, Heidi Diefes-Dux, Monica E. Cardella

Interdisciplinary Journal of Problem-Based Learning

Authentic open-ended problems are increasingly appearing in university classrooms at all levels. Formative feedback that leads to learning and improved student work products is a challenge, particularly in large enrollment courses. This is a case study of one first-year engineering student team’s experience with teaching assistant and peer feedback during a series of open-ended mathematical modeling problems called Model-Eliciting Activities. The goal of this study was to gain deep insight into the interactions between students, feedback providers, and written feedback by examining one team’s perceptions of the feedback they received and the changes they made to their solutions based on …


The Use Of Medical Exercise Therapy For A Post-Operative Gastrocnemius Recession Patient After Multiple Conservative Physical Therapy Treatments Failed: A Case Report, Caitlin Cross Nov 2014

The Use Of Medical Exercise Therapy For A Post-Operative Gastrocnemius Recession Patient After Multiple Conservative Physical Therapy Treatments Failed: A Case Report, Caitlin Cross

Case Report Posters

Background: Achilles Tendonitis affects 9% of all recreational runners. Treatment is variable. Surgery is controversial. Gastrocnemius Recession: Small incision to postero-medial lower leg to release gastrocnemius tendon; most commonly used to treat equino-varus contracture; lack of literature when used to treat chronic achilles tendonitis; no known literature for the postoperative physical therapy management. Medical Exercise Therapy (MET): Developed by the Holten Institute; 60 minutes of graded exercise; high repetitions with low weight; functional weight bearing during functional movement patterns. Purpose: The purpose of this case report was to report the use MET for a patient after a gastrocnemius recession as …

Direct Electrochemistry Of Photosynthetic Proteins With Application To The Construction Of A Photo-Bioelectrochemical Cell, Yun Zhang Nov 2014

Direct Electrochemistry Of Photosynthetic Proteins With Application To The Construction Of A Photo-Bioelectrochemical Cell, Yun Zhang

Doctoral Dissertations

Direct voltammetry of the redox cofactors in bacterial reaction center (RC) proteins and spinach PSII core complex was investigated in this dissertation. Peak assignments were made through the use of comparisons with multiple control experiments involving isolated proteins, those depleted of specific cofactors and those affected by exogenous chemical reagents. RCs having undergone site-specific mutagenesis were examined by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV) methods. The heterogeneous electron transfer rate constants were extracted from the datasets and simulations were used to determine the number of electrons transferred between the cofactor and the electrode. The work seeks to provide …

Publications and Research

Introduction Optimal identification of subtle cognitive impairment in the primary care setting requires a very brief tool combining (a) patients- subjective impairments, (b) cognitive testing, and (c) information from informants. The present study developed a new, very quick and easily administered case-finding tool combining these assessments ('BrainCheck') and tested the feasibility and validity of this instrument in two independent studies.

Methods We developed a case-finding tool comprised of patient-directed (a) questions about memory and depression and (b) clock drawing, and (c) the informant-directed 7-item version of the Informant Questionnaire on Cognitive Decline in the Elderly (IQCODE). Feasibility study: 52 general …

What. What. What. Clinical Judgment In Tanzanian Nurse Education, R. Kent Thompson Nov 2014

What. What. What. Clinical Judgment In Tanzanian Nurse Education, R. Kent Thompson

Theses

This study explored two facets of clinical judgment in Tanzanian nurse education. The first was to examine the perceptions of Tanzanian nurses regarding the use of clinical judgment during their nursing education. The second purpose was to scrutinize perceived benefits and obstacles of establishing approaches to the development of clinical judgment in Tanzanian nurses. The sample consisted of ten Tanzanian nurses whose experience ranged from two to eighteen years. A qualitative research design of phenomenology was used in designing a semi-structured interview guide to conduct the interviews
