Geomorphic Monitoring Of Cedar Valley Creek: Investigating The Impact Of Restoration Projects And Stream Systems Over Time, Kyle Borske Apr 2025

Geomorphic Monitoring Of Cedar Valley Creek: Investigating The Impact Of Restoration Projects And Stream Systems Over Time, Kyle Borske

Research & Creative Achievement Day

Streams and rivers are dynamic systems shaped by natural forces, but can be influenced by human intervention. This project focuses on Cedar Valley Creek to examine how geomorphic processes such as erosion, deposition, and sediment transport have been influenced over time by restoration efforts. By collecting data during field surveys, areas of instability will be identified and the effectiveness of the restoration project will be determined. This will give an understanding of the long term impacts of restoration projects and further insight on how to artificially maintain stream health.

From Seurat To Skynet - Pros And Cons Of Ai In The Studio Arts, Drake W. Onyx, Grace M. Larsen, Grace A. Robins, Grace A. Seidel, Elizabeth A. Tischler, Alivia A. Tima

Research & Creative Achievement Day

AI generated imagery is now everywhere and accessible to almost everyone… for better or for worse. There are many artists worldwide who have been using artificial intelligence / machine learning for years to create fascinating, research or experimentally driven art. There are also many artists who are using AI simply as a tool, and there is a long history of artists using tools to help them work more efficiently (camera lucida, photography, Photoshop, etc).  Conversely, many artists are concerned about the use of their original artwork being scraped without their permission to train these bots, and artists whose jobs have …


“I Didn’T Understand What It Was To Be A Mom Until I Became One:” Gender And Cultural Influence On Hmong Mother-Daughter Relationships And Communication, Serenity Xiong Apr 2025

“I Didn’T Understand What It Was To Be A Mom Until I Became One:” Gender And Cultural Influence On Hmong Mother-Daughter Relationships And Communication, Serenity Xiong

Research & Creative Achievement Day

The relationship between mothers and daughters is a complex bond that differs from person to person and is significantly shaped by cultural influences. The research in this area aims to reveal those cultural norms--the Hmong culture being the primary focus of the study--and values play a crucial role in defining the dynamics between mother-daughter relationships impacting their communication, expectations, and expression. To first understand the different dynamics that may exist between mothers and daughters in the Hmong culture, grasping the history of the importance of familial roles is essential. The Hmong demographic is an existing ethnic group part of various …


Development Of An Adhd Scale In The United Arab Emirates: An Exploratory Mixed-Methods Study, Abeer Arafa Eldib Apr 2025

Development Of An Adhd Scale In The United Arab Emirates: An Exploratory Mixed-Methods Study, Abeer Arafa Eldib

Thesis/ Dissertation Defenses

This study aims to develop culturally sensitive rating scales for teachers and parents to identify students at risk for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in the United Arab Emirates. An exploratory mixed-method research design was utilized for this study. The Eldeeb Teachers’ and Parents’ ADHD Rating Scale (ETPARS) was created to provide a reliable and valid culturally-based tool for identifying students at risk for ADHD. The scale comprises an item pool of 25 items that assess attention deficits and hyperactivity across three domains: inattention, hyperactivity/impulsivity, and the effects of ADHD. The scale was administered to 465 children, which is essential …


Sustainable Desalination: Carbon Capture From Reject Brine Using Uae Date Palm Leaf, Haneen Ahmed Abu Saifan Apr 2025

Sustainable Desalination: Carbon Capture From Reject Brine Using Uae Date Palm Leaf, Haneen Ahmed Abu Saifan

Thesis/ Dissertation Defenses

The United Arab Emirates faces significant challenges in managing reject brine from desalination processes. Additionally, the energy-intensive nature of desalination contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, particularly carbon dioxide (CO2). This study explores the potential of date palm leaf ash, an underutilized agricultural waste, as a sustainable material for brine desalination and CO2 capture. Date palm leaves were converted into ash through incineration at 550°C and 750°C, followed by chemical activation using potassium hydroxide. The study evaluated the ash's efficiency in removing key ions (Na+, Mg2+, Ca2+, K+) from reject brine and capturing CO2, while optimizing process conditions using response surface …


How Prepared Are Online Schools To Identify And Respond To Student Abuse?: Not Well, But There Is Hope, Monika Krah, Analisa Lewis, Juliann Sergi Mcbrayer, Chad Posick, Eric Landers Apr 2025

How Prepared Are Online Schools To Identify And Respond To Student Abuse?: Not Well, But There Is Hope, Monika Krah, Analisa Lewis, Juliann Sergi Mcbrayer, Chad Posick, Eric Landers

GS4 Student Scholars Symposium

In our rapidly-advancing technological world, little is known about school safety planning in online school settings. We expanded the Crisis Event Perception Survey (CEPS) to the Sustainable, Accessible, Feasible, and Effective (SAFE) Crisis Event Perceptions Survey to assess verbal, physical, relational, and cyberbullying prevalence and administrator preparedness in online school settings. We found that almost half of school administrators assessed were untrained in responding to physical (48%) and relational (43%) bullying and approximately one-third of school administrators surveyed felt unprepared to address physical and/or relational bullying in online schools. Furthermore, we found that only about half of administrators are trained …

Childhood Experiences, Resilience, And Ghanaian Adult Psychological Well-Being, Kadence A. Lewis Apr 2025

Childhood Experiences, Resilience, And Ghanaian Adult Psychological Well-Being, Kadence A. Lewis

Steeplechase: An ORCA Student Journal

Significant amounts of research exists concerning adverse childhood experiences and trauma (ACEs) and its negative consequences on adult well-being. However, there is minimal research on a concept known as positive/benevolent childhood experiences (BCEs), which are circumstances in childhood that provide safety, security, and predictability in the home. It has been shown that BCEs and ACEs have co-occurred in childhood. It is apparent that BCEs have a positive effect in one's life, can counteract negative effects of ACE exposure, and can promote resiliency. These studies have been done with samples across the western hemisphere, however, this study seeks to examine the …
