From Automation To Imagination: Empowering Student Creativity In The Digital Age, Annie Yon

New Jersey English Journal

In today’s digital age, literacy extends beyond traditional reading and writing to encompass collaboration, multimodal communication, and the ability to create meaning through diverse media. As AI becomes more integrated into education, we must reconsider its impact on student thinking, work ethic, and writing, while redefining meaningful writing and assessments. Rather than relying on traditional five-paragraph essays, projects like literary magazines that blend writing with multimodal components showcase how educators can prioritize creativity, expression, and personal reflection. This approach ensures that even in the age of AI, students continue to create and engage in ways that are authentically their own.

Amplifying Student Voice With Academic Conversations Across The Curriculum, Tara Temprano, Margaret Gelbwasser

New Jersey English Journal

This article explores the power of academic conversations to foster student engagement across disciplines. Students develop communication skills essential for all subjects through writing exercises, collaborative critiques, and historical role-playing. Strategies for integrating discussion into Art, Social Studies, and ELA classrooms help bridge the gap between the subject and the literacy space.

Beyond Black And White: Embracing Every Hue Through Words, Stories, And Unapologetic Truths, Darius M. Phelps

New Jersey English Journal

Literacy shapes how students interpret and engage with the world, yet traditional education often compartmentalizes it. This article explores racial literacy and poetry as transformative, interdisciplinary tools for critical inquiry and identity formation. Grounded in scholarship and practical strategies, it calls for reimagining literacy instruction as empowerment across disciplines and lived experiences.

Bridging Fantasy And Identity Through Narrative, Washington C. Pearce

New Jersey English Journal

In this personal essay I explore the connection between fantastical literacy and a student's perception of their own identity. As we explore fantastical narrative worlds, we learn the vocabulary to describe our own lives and write our own life-stories.

Falling Stars, Veronica D. Gollihue

New Jersey English Journal

A reflection and reminder that learning begins when we foster deeper connections with our students. As teachers, we can use our students’ experiences to help find new ways of learning, bridge gaps, and create positive classroom environments.

Moving Beyond Reading And Writing: Incorporating Historically Responsive Literacy Into Literacy Instruction In Content Area Classrooms, Andrea Lemahieu Glaws

New Jersey English Journal

This article describes the practices on teacher educator used to incorporate a historically responsive literacy framework into a disciplinary literacy course offered for pre-service teachers. This article begins with an overview of disciplinary literacy and Dr. Muhammad’s historically responsive literacy framework. Following, this article describes three assignments that the teacher educator used within her classroom to support pre-service teachers across multiple content areas in making connections between HRL and their content area discipline. These three assignments include: lab reflections, curriculum analysis, and mini-lesson facilitation. Connections to implications beyond teacher education are made.

Interdisciplinary Literacy: An Integrative And Inquiry-Based Effort, Melissa Bryan

New Jersey English Journal

This article outlines a multi-week student-centered social justice research project as a space through which educators may develop disciplinary reading skills. The piece considers culturally responsible and critical literacy practices as well as research on best practices in interdisciplinary reading in secondary education. Results reveal that motivation and discipline-specific reading strategies are key to student success.

The Helms-Burton Act And The Wto Challenge: Making A Case For The United States Under The Gatt National Security Exception, Klinton W. Alexander

Florida Journal of International Law

This article analyzes the legality of the Helms-Burton Act under the WTO and GATT rules, with particular emphasis on the national security exception and the use of this exception by the United States to justify its policy towards Cuba and its trading partners. Part one describes the contextual background and specific events leading up to the passage of the Helms-Burton Act and its four key provisions. Part II discusses the international reaction to the passage of Helms-Burton and the growing dissatisfaction among the United States major trading partners with the use of unilateral economic sanctions as a primary tool of …

Quantifying User Journey Progression Using A Language Model, Lijun Wang, Qing Zhang, Thomas Vaughan, Kangxing Fu, Shuo-Heng Chung, Evgeny Skvortsov, Harikesh Nair, Shawn Xu, Jianqiao Wang, Jing Wang, Charles Huyi, Junyi Zhang, David Quintero, Jeff Yam, Jiro Root, Tong Geng

Systems and methods can quantify user journey progression in digital advertising analytics, as some static, rule-based models may not capture the non-linear nature of certain user behaviors. The disclosed technology can utilize a data-driven framework with a sequential prediction model, such as an n-gram model, to analyze user interaction data. Raw user actions can be ingested and mapped to discrete symbols, or grams, which can then be formed into chronological sequences representing user journeys. The model can process these advertiser-specific sequences to compute a transition probability table that quantifies the likelihood of a user's next action based on their recent …

Embedded Liquid Cooling Architectures For Printed Circuit Boards, N/A

Defensive Publications Series

This paper describes thermal management solutions for electronic devices, specifically focusing on liquid cooling mechanisms integrated directly into printed circuit boards (PCBs). The configurations detailed herein address thermal challenges by embedding cooling conduits and heat exchange structures within the PCB substrate itself. Such approaches may include embedding copper tubes inside copper coins in the PCB or may include a cold plate having inlet and outlet tubes installed into a cavity within the PCB.

Generation Of Synthetic Photographs Via Video Synthesis And Heuristic Frame Selection, Mira Leung

Defensive Publications Series

Generating novel synthetic photographs of locations can be challenging, as some generative techniques may introduce visual artifacts or compositional inconsistencies when creating new camera perspectives. The described systems and methods can address this by using two or more source images as input for a generative video synthesis model. The model can produce a short video that interpolates or extrapolates between the viewpoints of the source images, creating a set of new, spatially coherent camera angles. This generated video may then be deconstructed into a pool of candidate frames. A heuristic, such as a feature similarity score, can be used to …

Real-Time Intrinsic State Analysis Of Neural Networks Via Instrumented Characteristic Regions, Johannes Start, John Lunney

Defensive Publications Series

This document describes systems and methods for analyzing the internal state of neural networks, such as large language models, during production-level inference. Some existing analysis techniques may rely on extrinsic, black-box analysis of model outputs, which can be slow, costly, and may not detect certain performance degradations. The described technology can involve an offline process to identify and calibrate sparse characteristic regions within a model's architecture, where specific activation patterns may correlate with high-level internal states. During runtime, lightweight counters can be instrumented into the model's computational graph to measure activations within these regions, potentially with low performance overhead. This …

What Is The Connection Between Scientific Research And Educational Research ?, Lahssen Toubi

SOROUD: The journal of Literacy Criticism

This article compares the characteristics of scientific and éducational research, highlighting their commonalities. Educational research is considered a branch of scientific research, but it is distinguished by its spécific subject matter, focus, and méthodology for addressing educational phénomena and issues. Educational situations are its central focus, whether they are asymmetrical or dynamic, in addition to the unique charactéristics of time, space, and historical context of each educational situation. The article also discussed other déterminants of éducational research, such as the intervention of unexpected éléments in the educational situation under study. This situation may bé governed by an infinité number of …
