Study Of Physical Layer Security And Teaching Methods In Wireless Communications, Zhijian Xie, Christopher Horne Oct 2018

Study Of Physical Layer Security And Teaching Methods In Wireless Communications, Zhijian Xie, Christopher Horne

KSU Proceedings on Cybersecurity Education, Research and Practice

In most wireless channels, the signals propagate in all directions. For the communication between Alice and Bob, an Eavesdropper can receive the signals from both Alice and Bob as far as the Eavesdropper is in the range determined by the transmitting power. Through phased array antenna with beam tracking circuits or cooperative iteration, the signals are confined near the straight line connecting the positions of Alice and Bob, so it will largely reduce the valid placement of an Eavesdropper. Sometimes, this reduction can be prohibitive for Eavesdropper to wiretap the channel since the reduced space can be readily protected. Two …


A Cohort-Based Program To Help Students Prepare A Conference Research Presentation, Alanna Lecher Oct 2018

A Cohort-Based Program To Help Students Prepare A Conference Research Presentation, Alanna Lecher

Florida Statewide Symposium: Best Practices in Undergraduate Research

Students move through many first time experiences when navigating their undergraduate and graduate education. Such experiences include the first time students submit an article to a peer-reviewed scientific journal, attend a conference, and conduct fieldwork. The cohort model has been shown to be effective in increasing success in undergraduate education, and it can be adapted to helping students succeed in these novel experiences as well. This presentation will explore one program where the cohort model was implemented to aid undergraduate students preparing their first conference presentation on a scientific research project. Program structure and implementation will be described.

Utilization Of Information Technology As Instructional Support In Higher Education – A Case Study, Linda C. Gordon, Erin Gratz, David Kung, Leeshawn Moore, Shelley G. Urbizagastegui Oct 2018

Utilization Of Information Technology As Instructional Support In Higher Education – A Case Study, Linda C. Gordon, Erin Gratz, David Kung, Leeshawn Moore, Shelley G. Urbizagastegui

Communications of the IIMA

Despite significant increases in the growth of online education, a review of research reveals few studies of faculty perceptions of the use of technology in classrooms in higher education. Research can explore and illuminate how to bridge the gap between faculty perceptions and institutional goals and objectives for online programs. The study at hand presents the views of full-time and adjunct faculty across the colleges, both on- and off-campus, and the online community, at the University of La Verne, a private Tier II doctoral degree-granting institution located in Southern California.

Ready Or Not, Here They Come: A College Prepares For Food Allergies, Kelly Evans Wilson Oct 2018

Ready Or Not, Here They Come: A College Prepares For Food Allergies, Kelly Evans Wilson

Scholars Showcase 2018: Innovations in Leadership and Learning

According to the national organization FARE (Food Allergy Research Education), researchers estimate that up to 15 million Americans, including one in 13 children, have food allergies. In fact, a 2013 report released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that the number of children with food allergies in the U.S. increased 50 percent between 1997 and 2011. Food allergy reactions send someone to the emergency department every three minutes, resulting in more than 200,000 emergency department visits in the U.S. per year. (FARE, n.d.).

Scholars Showcase 2018: Innovations in Leadership and Learning

In educational interventions, Hilty and colleagues (Gish &Hilty, 2018; Hilty, 2017; Hilty, Gish, Gill-Rocha, 2017a, 2017b; Hilty et al., 2017c; Hilty et al., 2018a, 2018b, 2018c, 2018d, 2018e, 2018f) have evaluated teaching strategies for increasing student self-efficacy in relation to statistics. One teaching strategy intervention involved RN Faculty offering 20-minute presentations in their expert areas. A hypothetical database was created based on the RN presentation demostrating the relationship between the field of nursing and statistics. The database was analyzed using an inferential test(s), and students interpreted the findings (Hagen, Awosoga, Kellett, & Dei, 2013; Neuman, Hood, & Neumann, 2013). The …

Teaching A More Accurate And Inclusive History Of Science, Noah Aydin

Scholars Showcase 2018: Innovations in Leadership and Learning

Thanks to research on primary sources in the last few decades, we know that some of the most fundamental concepts of modern math and science are a legacy of the medieval Islamic Civilization. These contributions, however, are generally not known and not taught in schools due to an inaccurate narrative of history of science that has been in circulation for a long time. There is a great need to disseminate the accurate information to the general public.

Faculty Development And Student Learning, Barbara Carder

Scholars Showcase 2018: Innovations in Leadership and Learning

Does faculty development impact student learning? Most faculty in higher education want to improve their teaching skillsets and they participate in the faculty development program offered by their institution. Most faculty also devote time outside of a formal faculty development program to improve their teaching skillsets. What are the impacts of these efforts on student learning?

To Frame Or Not To Frame: Improving Goal Setting, Alexander Dontre

Scholars Showcase 2018: Innovations in Leadership and Learning

Goal setting is a fundamental mechanism used to enhance performance and to promote individual and organizational achievement. Accordingly, developing ways to improve goal effectiveness can be a valuable endeavor. This project proposes that the way in which goals are framed should be positively correlated with success rates. New Year's resolutions were determined to be framed either positively or negatively, and then compared to the self-reported success rates. The study results confirmed that goals with positive framing resulted in higher success rates than did goals with negative framing.

No Tenure, No Benefits, No Autonomy, No Problem?, Nicole Duttlinger

Scholars Showcase 2018: Innovations in Leadership and Learning

Higher Education continues to rely on adjunct faculty as most of their teaching force, and largely ignores their levels of satisfaction. As faculty have the most direct line to students on a regular basis, it should be determined if adjunct faculty are satisfied with various aspects of their jobs. Additionally, to aid the large adjunct faculty teaching force, higher education institutions are implementing centralized curriculum at higher rates particularly in online courses. These courses may erode instructional autonomy which may negatively influence faculty satisfaction. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to determine if the use of centralized curriculum erodes …

Applying Project Management Strategies In A Large Curriculum Conversion Project In Higher Education, Joel Gardner, Patrick Bennett, Niccole Hyatt, Kevin Stoker

Scholars Showcase 2018: Innovations in Leadership and Learning

Higher education is undergoing great changes that require universities to adapt quickly, and making these changes can be difficult. One discipline that can aid in executing change is project management, which has developed a set of clear processes and strategies for completing initiatives quickly and effectively. Several authors have identified project management competencies as key in the practice of instructional design. However, in our experience it can be difficult to operationalize project management, particularly in instructional design projects that are large in scope and require a quick turnaround. In this case study, we describe our response to an immediate need …
