Evaluation Of Educational Video On Nurses Discharge Teaching, Jennifer Childress, Lisa Maloney, Kathy Monroe

General Submissions: Presentations (Oral and Poster)

Purpose: During 2015, patients presenting to an urban pediatric emergency department (ED) for vomiting accounted for one of the top five chief complaints. The American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend oral rehydration (ORT) as the first line of treatment for vomiting in mildly dehydrated children. The ED does not currently have an established procedure for oral rehydration education, thus leading to incomplete, inaccurate, or absent education for the caregiver. The purpose of the project was to develop an educational video for nursing staff to be used in teaching oral rehydration to caregivers. Nursing …

Abracadabra, Hocus Pocus, Same Song, Different Chorus: The Newest Iteration Of The "Science" Of Lie Detection, Carrie Leonetti

Richmond Journal of Law & Technology

The “lie detector” is the holy grail of criminal investigation and adjudication. Dissatisfied with the jury’s ability to sort truth-tellers from liars, police, prosecutors, and criminologists have longed dreamed of a scientific talisman that would definitively sort the guilty from the innocent.

Sessions V. Dimaya: Vagueness Doctrine & Deportation Statutes, Matthew Gibbons

Duke Journal of Constitutional Law & Public Policy Sidebar

Sessions v. Dimaya seeks to determine whether the residual clause of a criminal provision, incorporated by reference into a civil immigration law, is void for vagueness. Although there is an instance of the Supreme Court applying the criminal vagueness standard to an immigration statute resulting in deportation, the United States argues that immigration law is not subject to that vagueness standard because it is civil and not criminal. This commentary argues that Sessions v. Dimaya presents the Supreme Court with an opportunity to conform with its precedents, further the principles underlying vagueness doctrine, and appear to apply judicial rules consistently. …

The Use Of Formative Instructional Practices To Improve Student Performance, Courtney L. St. John-Wacker

Theses and Dissertations

This study explores teacher and school leadership perceptions on the use of Formative Instructional Practices (FIP) in classroom settings located in a large urban school district. Research indicates that using formative assessment can increase student achievement; however, professional learning of such practices is needed (Frey & Fisher, 2013; Harrison, O’Hara & McNamara, 2015; Wiliam, Lee, Harrison & Black, 2004). Research questions developed for this study included one main question and three secondary questions. The main question explored the participant’s perceptions of FIP implementation while the secondary questions focused on the development of student motivation and classroom assessments for students. Additionally, …

Bridge To Practice: Connecting Online Courses With Institutional Practice, Megan Mikula

General Submissions: Presentations (Oral and Poster)

Online instruction is an established teaching method in academia and an emerging format utilized by Nursing Professional Development practitioners in the hospital setting. Commercially available online courses have wide appeal, but they cannot address specific institutional policies, procedures, practices and their relation to the general content of the course nor can the online course provide hands-on training. Thus a gap between theory and practice is formed. "Bridge to Practice" (BTP) classes were developed to close the gap between online content and the application of the course principles within an institution. In-person classes provided an opportunity to dialogue and reinforce best …

Drowning In Big Data: Abundance Of Choice, Scarcity Of Attention And The Personalization Trap, A Case For Regulation, Sofia Grafanaki

Richmond Journal of Law & Technology

These eye-catching headlines are just a sample of the headlines that have dominated the news recently. So the secret is out. The Internet can no longer be seen as a utopian place where everyone is equal and freedom is the status quo. Not everything that has to do with technology is simply a “technical” issue. “The technical is political.” There are always values and politics involved in the structure, design and architecture of technology; put differently, these issues are socio-technical and have a deep effect on what sorts of citizens we become.

Physics Based Approach For Seafloor Classification, Phu Duy Nguyen

Dissertations and Theses

The seafloor properties are of high importance for many applications such as marine biology, oil and gas exploration, laying cables, dredging operations and off-shore construction. Several approaches exist to classify the properties of the seabed. These include taking direct samples of the seabed (e.g., coring), however, these methods are costly and slow. Underwater acoustic remote sensing techniques are of interest because they are lower cost and faster. The information about the seabed properties can be extracted by studying the energy of single beam echo sounders (SBES). This can be done by either phenomenological or numerical methods [1], [2]. This research …

Slave To The Algorithm? Why A 'Right To An Explanation' Is Probably Not The Remedy You Are Looking For, Lilian Edwards, Michael Veale

Duke Law & Technology Review

Algorithms, particularly machine learning (ML) algorithms, are increasingly important to individuals’ lives, but have caused a range of concerns revolving mainly around unfairness, discrimination and opacity. Transparency in the form of a “right to an explanation” has emerged as a compellingly attractive remedy since it intuitively promises to open the algorithmic “black box” to promote challenge, redress, and hopefully heightened accountability. Amidst the general furore over algorithmic bias we describe, any remedy in a storm has looked attractive. However, we argue that a right to an explanation in the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is unlikely to present a …

Transforming Clinical Leadership: Standardized Charge Nurse Development, Susan Hanser, Stephanie Fowler

General Submissions: Presentations (Oral and Poster)

Charge nurses dramatically impact the workflow of a nursing unit but often feel ill-prepared to lead. At our community hospital, we created a charge nurse development class that incorporates four identified themes: 1) Leadership principles: an introduction to the standards by which all leaders at our organization conduct themselves. This invites discussion and reflection on what leadership looks like at the bedside. 2) Key quality concepts: metrics and reimbursement facts, how our facility compares to others and discussions about how the charge nurse can effect change. 3) Communication techniques: feedback scripting that enables the nurses to initiate difficult conversations and …

Interactional Competence In Japanese As An Additional Language: An Overview, Tim Greer, Midori Ishida, Yumiko Tateyama

Faculty Publications

Speaking a language involves more than just knowledge of grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation: It also requires the abilities to interpret what your interlocutor is saying, to formulate a relevant response, and to deliver it in a timely manner. In addition, it entails skills such as dealing with trouble in talk when it arises and being able to identify an appropriate moment to start speaking. In short, it requires interactional competence (IC). As this applies to speaking a language other than one's first, this volume of Pragmatics & Interaction examines specific interactional competences {ICs) that speakers of Japanese as an additional …

Developing Recipient Competence During Study Abroad, Midori Ishida

Faculty Publications

Partly as a response to Kinginger's (2009) call for studies that examine the interaction in which L2 speakers participate during study abroad and its relationship with long-term development, this chapter explores what features of social interaction might afford L2 speakers opportunities to "form new practices" (Pallotti & Wagner, 2011, p. 1), especially when using receipts.
