Using Computer-Assisted Graphic Organizers In Algebra Instruction To Support High School Students With Learning Disabilities, Katherine Rimby

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was: 1) to examine the effect of the use of graphic organizers in high school algebra instruction; 2) to compare the difference of student performance when hand-written and computer-assisted graphic organizers were used, and 3) to evaluate student attitude towards learning algebra when hand-written and computer-assisted graphic organizers were used. A total of eight high school students with LD in two classes, with four in each class, participated in this study. A single subject design with AB and ABC phases was used in this study for 10 weeks, during which eight Algebraic math skills were …

Engineering Residential Learning Communities: Evaluating The Impact On Freshmen Engineering Students, Margaret Flynn

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of an engineering living-learning community (ELLC) on freshmen enginering students. A control group of non-ELLC participants was used to compare the experiences of the ELLC students. Data were collected using Likert scale survey items and open-ended questions. Analysis of the survey data showed that there were significant differences between the ELLC students and non-ELLC students in how they responded to questions regarding social support, academic support, connectedness to campus, and satisfaction with the college of engineering and Rowan University. A focus group of ELLC participants was also conducted to get …

Electron Band Alignment At The Interface Of (100)Insb With Atomic-Layer Deposited Al2o3, H.Y. Chou, V. V. Afanas'ev, M. Houssa, A. Stesmans, Lin Dong, Peide Ye

Birck and NCN Publications

From experiments on internal photoemission of electrons at the (100)InSb/Al2O3 interface, the top of the InSb valence band is found to be 3.05 +/- 0.10 eV below the oxide conduction band and corresponds to a conduction band offset of 2.9 +/- 0.1 eV. These results indicate that the top of valence band in InSb lies energetically at the same level as in GaSb and above the valence bands in InxGa1-xAs (0

Friction Stir Spot Welding Of Ultra-High Strength Steel, Trent J. Hartman

Theses and Dissertations

Friction stir spot welding (FSSW) is quickly becoming a method of interest for welding of high strength steel (HSS) and ultra high strength steel (UHSS). FSSW has been shown to produce high quality welds in these materials, without the drawbacks associated with fusion welding. Tool grade for polycrystalline cubic boron nitride (PCBN) tools has a significant impact on wear resistance, weld quality, and tool failure in FSSW of DP 980 steel sheet. More specifically, for a nominal composition of 90% CBN, the grain size has a significant impact on the wear resistance of the tool. A-type tools performed the best, …

Multiwavelength Observations Of The Agn 1es 0414+009 With Veritas, Fermi-Lat, Swift-Xrt, And Mdm, P. T. Reynolds, Et. Al.

Physical Sciences Publications

We present observations of the BL Lac object 1ES 0414+009 in the >200 GeV gamma-ray band by the VERITAS array of Cherenkov telescopes. 1ES 0414+009 was observed by VERITAS between 2008 January and 2011 February, resulting in 56.2 hr of good quality pointed observations. These observations resulted in a detection of 822 events from the source corresponding to a statistical significance of 6.4 standard deviations (6.4σ) above the background. The source flux, showing no evidence for variability, is measured as (5.2 ± 1.1stat ± 2.6sys) × 10–12 photons cm–2 s–1 above 200 GeV, equivalent to approximately 2% of the Crab …

Despite the astrophysical importance of binary star systems, detections are limited to those located in small ranges of separations, distances, and masses and thus it is necessary to use a variety of observational techniques for a complete view of stellar multiplicity across a broad range of physical parameters. In this paper, we report the detections and measurements of two binaries discovered from observations of microlensing events MOA-2011-BLG-090 and OGLE-2011-BLG-0417. Determinations of the binary masses are possible by simultaneously measuring the Einstein radius and the lens parallax. The measured masses of the binary components are 0.43 M and 0.39 M for …

Coronary Artery Remodeling In A Model Of Left Ventricular Pressure Overload Is Influenced By Platelets And Inflammatory Cells, Fanmuyi Yang, Anping Dong, Paul Mueller, Jessica Caicedo, Alyssa Moore Sutton, Juliana Odetunde, Cordelia J. Barrick, Yuri M. Klyachkin, Ahmed Abdel-Latif, Susan S. Smyth

Internal Medicine Faculty Publications

Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is usually accompanied by intensive interstitial and perivascular fibrosis, which may contribute to arrhythmogenic sudden cardiac death. The mechanisms underlying the development of cardiac fibrosis are incompletely understood. To investigate the role of perivascular inflammation in coronary artery remodeling and cardiac fibrosis during hypertrophic ventricular remodeling, we used a well-established mouse model of LVH (transverse aortic constriction [TAC]). Three days after pressure overload, macrophages and T lymphocytes accumulated around and along left coronary arteries in association with luminal platelet deposition. Consistent with these histological findings, cardiac expression of IL-10 was upregulated and in the systemic circulation, …

Internalized Homophobia, Psychological Distress And Job Satisfaction Among Sexual Minority Males In The Workplace, Huan-Hsiang Ueng

Electronic Theses and Dissertations Archive

Although a growing number of organizations have enacted nondiscrimination policies that include sexual orientation as a protected category and more than 180 municipalities have forbidden employment discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, many lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) employees continue to lack legal recourse to employment discrimination. Furthermore, anti-discrimination policies may exist, but not be enforced in the workplace, creating a hostile working environment. Thus, it is important to examine the overall organizational climate as well as the presence or absence of specific nondiscrimination policies as they relate to LGB employees’ job satisfaction and psychological distress. Internalized homophobia has …

Tracking Of Various Targets In The Infrared And Issues Encountered, Kyle Ausfeld

Theses

The use of a computer to track objects has been a subject of interest for a few decades. The applications these algorithms may be applied to span a large number of fields; anything from homeland security to the study of animal behavior. In particular, visible tracking has been around the longest and has the largest library of algorithms available. Algorithms such as Mean Shift have become a standard for testing algorithms against. However, algorithms such as Mean Shift may work well for visible video data, infrared video data presents some issues beyond many visible algorithms. Infrared video gives certain advantages …
