Lesson Observation: What Is The Problem It’S Solving?, D Roberts Jan 2019

Lesson Observation: What Is The Problem It’S Solving?, D Roberts

More Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Business Research

This paper considers the problems presented to teachers, school leaders and schools as a result of the neoliberal revolution and marketisation of the English education system following the 1988 Education Act. The policies created have focused on improving standards in schools by improving the quality of teacher efficacy through creating a national framework of Teachers’ Standards to measure teachers against. The paper examines how lesson observations are implemented to make judgements on the quality of teaching and improve the academic outcomes of young people. It draws on evidence from relevant literature and integrates my own experience as a headteacher having …

Positive Outcomes In Youth Campers With Hemophilia And Other Inherited Bleeding Disorders, Deniece Chevannes, Kim Williams, Danielle Shojaie Jan 2019

Positive Outcomes In Youth Campers With Hemophilia And Other Inherited Bleeding Disorders, Deniece Chevannes, Kim Williams, Danielle Shojaie

ACA National Camp Research Forum Abstracts

This poster presents findings from a residential camp for youth with hemophilia or other inherited bleeding disorders, Camp Wannaklot. Participants completed a subset of scales from the American Camp Association’s Camp Youth Outcomes Battery. Results were compared with average scores from our host camp facility, Camp Twin Lakes, and with ACA benchmark scores for Friendship Skills, Independence, and Responsibility. We present evidence that Camp Wannaklot provides substantial benefits to youth with hemophilia or other inherited bleeding disorders.

Upper Dimension And Bases Of Zero-Divisor Graphs Of Commutative Rings, S. Pirzada, M. Aijaza, Shane Redmond Jan 2019

Upper Dimension And Bases Of Zero-Divisor Graphs Of Commutative Rings, S. Pirzada, M. Aijaza, Shane Redmond

EKU Faculty and Staff Scholarship

For a commutative ring R with non-zero zero divisor set Z∗(R), the zero divisor graph of R is Γ(R) with vertex set Z∗(R), where two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if x y = 0. The upper dimension and the resolving number of a zero divisor graph Γ(R) of some rings are determined. We provide certain classes of rings which have the same upper dimension and metric dimension and give an example of a ring for which these values do not coincide. Further, we obtain some bounds for the upper dimension in zero divisor graphs …


Volatiles And Trace Element Contents In Melt Inclusions From The Zoned Green Tuff Ignimbrite (Pantelleria, Sicily): Petrological Inferences., Pierangelo Romano, John C. White, Alessandro Ciulla, Ida Di Carlo, Claudia D'Oriano, Patrizia Landi, Silvio G. Rotolo Jan 2019

EKU Faculty and Staff Scholarship

The island of Pantelleria is one of the best known localities of bimodal mafic-felsic magmatism (alkali basalt and trachyte-pantellerite). Among the felsic rocks, the coexistence in a single eruption of products of both trachyte and pantellerite compositions is limited to few occurrences, the Green Tuff (GT) ignimbrite being one of these. The GT is compositionally zoned from pantellerite (70.1 wt% SiO2, mol Na+K/Al = 1.86, 1871 ppm Zr) at the base to crystal-rich (>30 vol%) comenditic trachyte (63.4 wt% SiO2, mol Na+K/Al = 1.10, 265 ppm Zr) at the top, although the pantellertic compositions dominate the erupted volume. We …

The Leyva Canyon Volcano, Big Bend Ranch State Park, Presidio Co., Texas., John C. White, Kevin M. Urbanczyk, Kelly Watson

EKU Faculty and Staff Scholarship

Leyva Canyon volcano is an Oligocene (37.3 to 27.1 Ma) trachyte shield volcano whose eruptive and volcaniclastic deposits of rhyolite and trachyte lavas, ash-flow tuffs, lahars, and associated sedimentary rocks comprise the Leyva Canyon Member of the Rawls Formation. The lavas and tuffs originated from vents located near the present-day "Bofecillos vent" in the central Bofecillos Mountains, approximately 5 km west of the Sauceda Ranger Station in Big Bend Ranch State Park in southernmost Presidio County, Texas. The pyroclastic and volcaniclastic units form the distinctive cliffs and caves at the periphery of the Bofecillos Mountains, with the caves developing in …

Buckley 2.0: How Would The Buckley Court Decide Buckley Today?, Miriam Galston Jan 2019

Buckley 2.0: How Would The Buckley Court Decide Buckley Today?, Miriam Galston

GW Law Faculty Publications & Other Works

If you read Supreme Court campaign finance cases, you will be struck by the disconnect between the lofty rhetoric used to justify the constitutional protections afforded political speech and the impoverished sound bites and hyperbolic attack ads that dominate contemporary electoral communications. The origin of this disconnect is in large part two phenomena. First, in the last decade the Court has failed to take the factual record seriously and, as a result, makes generalizations that are belied by contemporary campaign practices. Relatedly, the Court has adopted doctrines that co-exist in uneasy relationships with campaign finance doctrines of longstanding. As a …
