Regis University Student Publications (comprehensive collection)

According to the 2024 population census, Uganda’s population is comprised of a high and increasing cohort of young people, over 70 percent of the population is below the age of thirty.

Enhancing Staff Satisfaction: Exploring The Efficacy Of Peer Observation As An Improvement Science Approach To Professional Learning For Elementary Educators, Brian Wood

Doctor of Education (EdD)

This research aimed to determine if introducing a peer observation system for professional development within an elementary school improved staff satisfaction with accessing and implementing professional learning.

The study focused on study participants engaging in peer observations to acquire and implement new professional learning. Data collection methods included pre-, mid-, …

Early Cinema And The Historiographic Impulse: Scholarly Positionality Then And Now, Charles Musser

The Journal of e-Media Studies

This free-form essay reflects on the historiography of early cinema from W. K. L. Dickson’s early accounts to the 1978 Brighton FIAF Conference on Cinema 1900-1906, which brought together young scholars and veteran archivist in a congenial, collaborative setting. It examines the contemporary moment in which its study has been expanded and institutionalized within academia, characterized by numerous biennial conferences and yearly gatherings such as the Giornate del Cinema Muto. Tied to this are debates about the relationship of broad historiographic characterizations to sustained, in-depth research. Historians continue to disagree about the rise and dominance of story films, and this …

New Windows On The World, Ian Christie

The Journal of e-Media Studies

Over a century ago, moving pictures opened new ways of seeing and experiencing the world for audiences. In 1900 watching lifelike images from near and far in a darkened space was a new experience, and one that quickly attracted audiences everywhere. For those not living in crowded cities, movies offered a taste of city life. And for those far from centers of innovation, they brought modernity and new styles of life. They also created a new kind of encyclopedia, displaying wonders of nature and science for the masses. And they created new kinds of glamour in the images of stars …

Does Art Pluralism Lead To Eliminativism?, P.D. Magnus, Christy Mag Uidhir

Philosophy Faculty Scholarship

Art pluralism is the view that there is no single, correct account of what art is. Instead, art is understood through a plurality of art concepts and with considerations that are different for particular arts. Although avowed pluralists have retained the word “art” in their discussions, it is natural to ask whether the considerations that motivate pluralism should lead us to abandon art talk altogether; that is, should pluralism lead to eliminativism? This paper addresses arguments both for and against this move. We ultimately argue that pluralism allows one to retain the word “art”, if one wants it, but only …

The Constitutional Meaning Of Financial Terms, Tomer S. Stein, Shelby Ponton

Scholarly Works

The Constitution has sixty-three financial terms. These financial terms include, for instance, “compensation,” “expenditures,” “debt,” “coin,” “revenue,” “securities,” and “bankruptcies”—all of which determine the elementary building blocks of our governmental makeup. When the Supreme Court interprets the meaning of these financial terms, it does so in isolation and without a consistent framework. This Article proposes a unified framework for the interpretation of financial terms in the Constitution, comprising of two fundamental canons of construction.

First, this Article proposes that all financial terms in the Constitution should be interpreted with fiscal and monetary neutrality—interpreting financial terms in a way that does …

Trouble’S Bruen: The Lower Courts Respond, Glenn Harlan Reynolds, Brannon P. Denning

Scholarly Works

New York State Rifle & Pistol Ass'n v. Bruen revolutionized the understanding of how Second Amendment cases are to be adjudicated. Rejecting the tiered-scrutiny analysis around which the lower courts had coalesced since the 2008 Heller decision, the Court instructed courts to look to history and tradition after it was determined that state or federal regulations limited activities that fell within the protections afforded by the Second Amendment's text. Justice Thomas's opinion, however, left open significant questions about how the history-and-tradition method is to operate in practice. The Court recently held oral arguments in United States v. Rahimi, in which …

Effect Of Tatraka On Anxiety And The Concentration Of Adolescents In Sanskrit And Arabic Schools, Rajnish Chandra Tripathi

Papers from the International Association for Cross-Cultural Psychology Conferences

Yogic visual concentration (Trataka) is a fundamental concentration method in yogic practices for enhancing concentration ability as well as healing psychological problems. The literal meaning of the Sanskrit word Trataka is “to gaze steadily”, suggesting gazing at a small point until tears are shed. Thus, the present study examined the effects of Trataka yogic practices on the anxiety and the concentration ability of adolescents in Sanskrit and Arabic schools …

Administrators' Perspectives On Successful Implementation Of Occupational Therapy Services In The School-Based Setting, Suanne M. Waldron

Occupational Therapy Doctorate Capstone Projects

Background: Best practice for school-based occupational therapy (SBOT) alludes to collaboration, consultation, and in-context services in utilizing occupational therapy’s expanded roles to best meet the needs of students.
