The Convergence Of Difference Boxes, Christopher Kribs, Antonio Behn, Vadim Ponomarenko Jan 2005

The Convergence Of Difference Boxes, Christopher Kribs, Antonio Behn, Vadim Ponomarenko

Mathematics Faculty Publications - Archive

We consider an elementary mathematical puzzle known as a "difference box" in terms of a discrete map from R⁴ to R⁴ or , canonically, from a subset of the first R² into itself. We identify the map's unique canonical fixed point and answer more generally the question of how many interactions a given "difference box" takes to reach zero. (The number is finite except for boxes corresponding to the fixed point.)

Cases Of University Faculty Conceptions And Practices Of Teaching, Assessment And Action Research., Carol Dianne Raubenheimer 1959- Dec 2004

Cases Of University Faculty Conceptions And Practices Of Teaching, Assessment And Action Research., Carol Dianne Raubenheimer 1959-

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Conceptions of teaching and learning held by faculty in higher education broadly reflect two dominant approaches, those that are teacher-focused and content oriented, and those that are student-focused and learner oriented (Entwistle, Skinner, Entwistle & Orr, 2000). Conceptions of teaching may be reflected in the pedagogical choices and practices of instructors, but this has not been well established at college level. Thus, an examination of such conceptions may advance the understanding of good teaching at the college level (Fernandez-Balboa & Stiehl, 1995). Using a case study approach this research (a) examined conceptions of teaching and learning, assessment, and action research …

Model Parameters And Outbreak Control For Sars, Christopher Kribs, Gerardo Chowell, Carlos Castillo-Chavez, Paul W. Fenimore, Leon Arriola, James M. Hyman Jul 2004

Model Parameters And Outbreak Control For Sars, Christopher Kribs, Gerardo Chowell, Carlos Castillo-Chavez, Paul W. Fenimore, Leon Arriola, James M. Hyman

Mathematics Faculty Publications - Archive

Control of the 2002–2003 severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak was based on rapid diagnosis coupled with effective patient isolation. We used uncertainty and sensitivity analysis of the basic reproductive number R0 to assess the role that model parameters play in outbreak control. The transmission rate and isolation effectiveness have the largest fractional effect on R0. We estimated the distribution of the reproductive number R0 under perfect isolation conditions. The distribution lies in the interquartile range 0.19–1.08, with a median of 0.49. Even though the median of R0 is <1, we found that 25% of our R0 distribution lies at R0 > 1, even with perfect isolation. This implies the need to simultaneously …

Implementing Student Learning Outcomes: The Link To Accreditation In California Community Colleges, Lori Waite Edd May 2004

Implementing Student Learning Outcomes: The Link To Accreditation In California Community Colleges, Lori Waite Edd

Dissertations

As the public demands accountability in higher education, regional accrediting bodies are under pressure from external governmental agencies, as well as from key stakeholders, to demonstrate their effectiveness and more specifically, provide evidence of student learning. All regional accrediting agencies now have incorporated some level of student learning outcomes into their criteria for reaffirmation of accreditation. This case study describes how three California public community colleges are implementing student learning outcomes on their campuses. Administrators, faculty and staff were interviewed about perceptions and insights related to learning outcomes. Artifact analysis was conducted to establish credibility and data triangulation. Findings suggest …
