Student And Teacher Perceptions Of Motivational Strategies In The Foreign Language Classroom, Ashley Ruesch Jun 2009

Student And Teacher Perceptions Of Motivational Strategies In The Foreign Language Classroom, Ashley Ruesch

Theses and Dissertations

Motivational research has recently shifted focus to include what role teachers, and the motivational strategies they use, play in the language learning classroom (Cheng & Dörnyei, 2007; Dörnyei & Csizer, 1998). Motivational research has traditionally gathered data from either teachers or students. However, researchers have recently been calling for a shift in focus from this individualistic perspective to evaluating motivation more holistically (Dörnyei, 2001a; Oxford, 2003; Ushioda, 2006). Nevertheless, few studies have included the opinions of both the students and teachers. This study has elicited the opinions of both students and teachers to find out which teaching practices both groups …


Nanocrystalline Diamond For Rf Mems Applications, Srinath Balachandran Jun 2009

Nanocrystalline Diamond For Rf Mems Applications, Srinath Balachandran

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Nanocrystalline diamond (NCD) due its outstanding thermal, mechanical and tribological properties is an ideal candidate for MEMS/NEMS devices. NCD offers the possibility to increase the reliability and life time of RF-MEMS switches and by mitigating the problems of stiction, charge trapping, surface wear and cold welding found in traditional all metal MEMS devices.

In this work, nanocrystalline diamond cantilever beams and bridges have been fabricated on a low resistive silicon substrate by using standard micromachining techniques. The diamond structures are then integrated onto alumina and aluminium nitride substrates upon which microwave transmission lines in the microstrip and coplanar waveguide (CPW) …


Evaluation Of The First Year Of A Statewide Problem Solving/Response To Intervention Initiative: Preliminary Findings, Jose Michael Castillo Educational Specialist Jun 2009

Evaluation Of The First Year Of A Statewide Problem Solving/Response To Intervention Initiative: Preliminary Findings, Jose Michael Castillo Educational Specialist

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This program evaluation study examined the relationship between Problem Solving/Response to Intervention (PS/RtI) training and technical assistance and educator and implementation outcomes following the first year of a 3-year project. Educators from 40 pilot schools in eight districts participating in the study received ongoing professional development targeting the rationale for the initiative, systems change issues, and the steps of the PS/RtI model. Data on educator beliefs, educator perceived and demonstrated PS/RtI skills, and PS/RtI implementation were collected throughout the year from the 40 pilot schools as well as 33 comparison schools. To examine the relationships between PS/RtI training and technical …


God So Loved The World...Ministerial Religious Life In 2009, Sandra Marie Schneiders Jun 2009

God So Loved The World...Ministerial Religious Life In 2009, Sandra Marie Schneiders

Jesuit School of Theology

The Leadership Council invited me to speak about “vowed Religious Life” following an earlier and complementary presentation on the subject of Associates. In a sense, this is a bit like talking about “wet water” because the terms “vowed” and “Religious Life” are mutually implicating though not co-extensive. As all water is wet but not all wet things are water, so all Religious Life is vowed life but not all vowed life is Religious Life. Furthermore, there are many forms of vowed Religious Life such as monastic, mendicant, or apostolic and much that applies to one does not apply to another. …

The Role Of Religious Education In The Development Of “Universal Responsibility”, Hing Wan Cheng Jun 2009

The Role Of Religious Education In The Development Of “Universal Responsibility”, Hing Wan Cheng

Conference on “Improving the Human Destiny"

This paper highlights two major issues of the time: Clash of civilizations as suggested by Samuel Huntington and the problem with secularization. The author thinks that both issues are related to (ancient) religions. To resolve these issues, the paper suggests the adoption of “Universal Responsibility” brought forward by Dalai Lama and discusses the role of religious education to have it installed.


June 4th Around The World: Notes From One Week After The Anniversary Jun 2009

June 4th Around The World: Notes From One Week After The Anniversary

China Beat Blog: Archive 2008-2012

A week (or so) after the anniversary of the “May 35th” events (as some Chinese netizens put it to circumvent automatic blocks on mention of a highly charged date), we got several more responses to our request to Friends of the Blog for word on how June 4th was commemorated, discussed, or ignored in various parts of the world. The most substantial (reproduced in full below) is a second contribution to the series (click herefor her first) by Paola Voci (an Italian-born, American-trained, New Zealand-based specialist in Chinese visual culture whose book, China on Video: Small Screen Realities, is due …


Whose Sins You Shall Forgive....The Holy Spirit And The Forgiveness Of Sin(S) In The Fourth Gospel, Sandra Marie Schneiders Jun 2009

Whose Sins You Shall Forgive....The Holy Spirit And The Forgiveness Of Sin(S) In The Fourth Gospel, Sandra Marie Schneiders

Jesuit School of Theology

When I was invited to give this lecture I was asked to speak about the Holy Spirit in relation to my own research interests. I am currently working on the Resurrection Narrative in the Gospel if John in relation to what I consider the most pressing issue in our world today, namely violence. My overarching question is the following: what are Christians called to be and do in the face of the escalating violence in our world? In this lecture I am focusing on John 20:19-23, the scene in which Jesus appears to his disciples on Easter evening and commissions …


Blogs: Balanced Local And Global Search For Non-Degenerate Two View Epipolar Geometry, Aveek Shankar Brahmachari Jun 2009

Blogs: Balanced Local And Global Search For Non-Degenerate Two View Epipolar Geometry, Aveek Shankar Brahmachari

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The problem of epipolar geometry estimation together with correspondence establishment in case of wide baseline and large scale changes and rotation has been addressed in this work. This work deals with cases that are heavily noised by outliers. The jump diffusion MCMC method has been employed to search for the non-degenerate epipolar geometry with the highest probabilistic support of putative correspondences. At the same time, inliers in the putative set are also identified. The jump steps involve large movements guided by a distribution of similarity based priors while diffusion steps are small movements guided by a distribution of likelihoods given …
