Exploring Gender In First-Year Composition, Ross Alan Bradley Oct 2017

Exploring Gender In First-Year Composition, Ross Alan Bradley

Theses and Dissertations

Recently scholars in Creative Writing have begun researching gender and how gender relates to student success composition classes. This thesis uses critical discourse analysis and linguistic markers associated with different genders to examine student interaction with emphasis on gender domination and power inequalities between students of different genders.

The first chapter gives a brief overview of relevant literature and outlines the other chapters, the second chapter describes literature that was researched for the study, and the third chapter lays critical discourse analysis, which was used to analyze the data. …

Geopolitics Of Rare Earth Elements, Bert Chapman Oct 2017

Geopolitics Of Rare Earth Elements, Bert Chapman

Libraries Faculty and Staff Presentations

Rare earth elements (REE) contain unique chemical physical properties such as lanthamum, are found in small concentrations, need extensive precise properties to separate, and are critical components of modern technologies such as laser guidance systems, personal electronics such as IPhones, satellites, and military weapons systems as varied as Virginia-class fast attack submarines, DDG-51 Aegis destroyers, the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, and precision guided munitions. The U.S. has some rare earth resources, but is heavily dependent on access to them from countries as varied as Afghanistan, Bolivia, and China. Losing access to these resources would have significant adverse economic, military, and …

Data Description: The Digital Archive of John Wompas, by Jenny Hale Pulsipher

In the course of writing my book on John Wompas, Swindler Sachem: The American Indian Who Sold His Birthright, Dropped out of Harvard, and Conned the King of England (Yale University Press, 2018), I gathered a great deal of information on such subjects as Indian slavery, Native land sales, the Atlantic maritime trade, and Native education in Massachusetts. This information contributed to the book by providing historical context for Wompas’s life, but most nitty-gritty details were tangential to the book’s purpose so do not appear in it. Because …

Moonlight By Barry Jenkins, Aileen Miyuki Farrar Oct 2017

Moonlight By Barry Jenkins, Aileen Miyuki Farrar

NSU Annual Film Series

Description: With richly drawn characters and powerful performances, the highly touted, award-winning 2016 film, Moonlight, is a gripping and genuine coming-of-age tale that is set (and was filmed) in Miami. Chiron’s painful search for identity and human connection is complicated by an unstable drug-addled mother and rigid standards of masculinity for young men in the ‘hood’. According to David Sims of The Atlantic: “It’s a story about identity—an intelligent, challenging work that wants viewers to reflect on assumptions they might make about the characters.”

Facilitator: Dr. Kate Waites.


A Comparative Study Of Best Teaching Practices Across Three High School Music Ensembles: Band, Chorus, And Orchestra, Samantha Clarke Oct 2017

A Comparative Study Of Best Teaching Practices Across Three High School Music Ensembles: Band, Chorus, And Orchestra, Samantha Clarke

Discovery Day (formerly Post & Beyond)

This study is a look inside a Long Island High School’s band, chorus, and

orchestra in order to glean perspective on what teaching practices, rehearsal

techniques, methods of planning, philosophies of music education, priorities

within the elements of musicianship, etc. are most utilized and incorporated

into their daily routines. Since there is an established and recognized level

of success throughout this Department of Music, it is clear that these teachers

are effectively educating their students and achieving a high quality of

musicianship. This study will seek to discover the methods of how these

teachers continuously succeed. Time has been spent …

Therapy Through Writing: Herstory Writers Workshop, Nicole Guillet, Paola Guzman

This semester we have had the privilege of getting involved in the Herstory

Writers Workshop, which is a civic engagement internship prevalent across

advertises that we “bring unheard voices into the public arena, transforming

lived experiences into written memoirs powerful enough to change hearts,

minds and policy.” Our program here at LIU Post partners Pioneer

students with high school students from Westbury High School, who come

together right here at LIU every Thursday to share and listen to each other’s

stories. Through writing our own personal narratives we highlight social …


Provenance Of Place And Past: Designing A Bathhouse For Charlottesville (Print), Maya Chandler Oct 2017

Provenance Of Place And Past: Designing A Bathhouse For Charlottesville (Print), Maya Chandler

James Madison Undergraduate Research Journal (JMURJ)

Site, to an architect, should comprise not only the topographical and physical markers of the place, but also the cultural, historical, atmospheric, ritualistic, or intangible qualities of place. New projects ask us to examine what has preceded the proposed architecture and invite it into the work that we place on a site—not ignoring the past, mowing it down, or covering it up—but allowing it to point us in the direction of an architectural intervention. This project redesigns the historic Albemarle County Jail in downtown Charlottesville, Virginia, into a bathhouse. The place-based bathhouse design acknowledges several key elements in the jail’s …
