The Incorporation Of Social-Emotional Learning Into The School Setting, Josh Reynolds Jul 2024

The Incorporation Of Social-Emotional Learning Into The School Setting, Josh Reynolds

Master's Theses & Capstone Projects

The concept of social and emotional and learning has been prevalent for years, however, it has not been at the forefront of educational initiatives until recently. Today, we understand through extensive research that social-emotional learning can be utilized to strengthen the whole school experience for all students. The purpose of this school improvement plan is to decrease problem behaviors, and help our students become more engaged in the whole school experience. Modern education has moved into the realm of symbiosis, where learning is reciprocated, and where learning is a process rather than simply a beginning and an end. We are …

Removing Methane Via Atmospheric Oxidation Enhancement: The Legal Framework, Romany M. Webb, Martin Lockman, Korey Silverman-Roati

Sabin Center for Climate Change Law

To achieve the Paris Agreement’s goal of limiting the increase in global average temperatures to “well below 2 degrees Celsius,” and ideally 1.5 degrees Celsius, above pre-industrial levels, global greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions must reach net zero in the second half of the century. The global community is not currently on track to achieve net zero emissions. In fact, with the exception of a slight dip during the Covid-19 pandemic, emissions have risen steadily in recent years. This, together with the increasingly visible impacts of climate change, has prompted growing interest in the possibility of removing GHGs directly from the …

Mega-Influencers And Brand Dynamics: Shaping Attitudes Toward Leading And Challenger Brandsthrough Electronic Word Of Mouth, Riccardo Rialto, Lamberto Zollo, Kacy Kim, Sukki Yoon

Mathematics and Economics Faculty Journal Articles

The aim of this paper is to explore how mega‐influencers' electronic word of mouth (eWOM) messages on social media influence consumers' brand attitudes in duopolistic markets. Through three experimental studies, we observe that when mega‐ influencers send positive (vs. negative) eWOM messages about a leading brand, followers form positive (vs. negative) brand attitudes, but these effects fail to occur when influencers back challenger brands. The findings are consistent across three duopolistic market rivals (Apple vs. Samsung; UPS vs. FedEx; Nike vs. Adidas), three social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, and X), and four mega‐influencers (Marques Brownlee, Gary Vaynerchuk, Kanye West, and …

Legal Support For Local Election Officials, Rebecca Green Jul 2024

Legal Support For Local Election Officials, Rebecca Green

Faculty Publications

Local election officials (“LEOs”) face enormous pressure. They must administer elections when a wide swath of the American public has grown mistrustful of their work; they increasingly face ominous personal attacks and threats; they cope with chronic underfunding of elections; and they must navigate frequent changes in the law governing elections. Lawyers provide a critical avenue of support for local election officials. They provide guidance on how to implement legislative mandates and judicial orders; they anticipate and prevent disputes from arising; and they represent election officials when they or their offices are sued—a more common occurrence today than ever. Although …

Perceived Context Typicality And Beliefs In The Generalizability Of Management Research Findings, Przemyslaw Hensel, Adam Tatarynowicz Jul 2024

Perceived Context Typicality And Beliefs In The Generalizability Of Management Research Findings, Przemyslaw Hensel, Adam Tatarynowicz

Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business

Despite growing calls for a greater internationalization of management research, the discipline still struggles with the challenge of integrating diverse national contexts. While recent decades have seen a change toward a more equitable treatment of all national contexts, the belief that research conducted outside the United States is less generalizable remains strong. In this research note, we explore the general perceptions of what is considered a “typical” study context by associating them with authors' variable tendencies to report threats to external validity. Using a sample of 400 papers from seven top-tier management journals, we find that research based on non-US …

Oscillation Of The Impulsive Hematopoiesis Model With Positive And Negative Coefficients, Iman Sabeeh Hadeed, Hussain Ali Mohamad Jul 2024

Oscillation Of The Impulsive Hematopoiesis Model With Positive And Negative Coefficients, Iman Sabeeh Hadeed, Hussain Ali Mohamad

Baghdad Science Journal

In this paper, the problem of oscillating solutions for an impulsive hematopoiesis model with positive and negative coefficients is investigated. There are several evolutionary processes, which frequently encounter dramatic shifts at specific times and are sensitive to short-term perturbations. As a result, we construct several oscillation criteria that are either brand-new or enhance many of recent findings in the literature. We also give illustrations of how impulsiveness affects the oscillating solutions of the hematopoiesis model.
