A Study Of The Summarization Of Word Problems, Tara Schwanebeck Jul 2008

A Study Of The Summarization Of Word Problems, Tara Schwanebeck

Department of Teaching, Learning, and Teacher Education: Master of Arts in Teaching, Summative Projects

This action research investigates my sixth grade mathematics students’ ability to solve word problems after instruction and practice using a specific word problem summarization worksheet. The worksheet was designed to break down word problems into smaller parts, helping students comprehend them and, in turn, find success that would enhance their confidence and ability to successfully solve word problems. The worksheets each had a different type of word problem, such as one-step, hidden information, or extra information. The final worksheet consisted of a mixed review of each type of word problem previously practiced in class. Using different types of data collection …


Written Solutions Of Mathematical Word Problems, Marcia J. Smith Jun 2008

Written Solutions Of Mathematical Word Problems, Marcia J. Smith

Action Research Projects

In this action research study of my classroom of ten ninth grade algebra students, I investigated how my students expressed written solutions of mathematical word problems. I discovered that my students writing and performance improved as they experienced different strategies to attack problem solving. These experiences helped improve the confidence of my students in their problem solving skills and in their mathematical writing. I also discovered that my teaching style changed, as my students took on more responsibility for their learning. As a result of this research, I plan to implement problem solving activities in all my classrooms next year. …

Oscillation Theory Of Dynamic Equations On Time Scales, Raegan J. Higgins Apr 2008

Oscillation Theory Of Dynamic Equations On Time Scales, Raegan J. Higgins

Department of Mathematics: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

In past years mathematical models of natural occurrences were either entirely continuous or discrete. These models worked well for continuous behavior such as population growth and biological phenomena, and for discrete behavior such as applications of Newton's method and discretization of partial differential equations. However, these models are deficient when the behavior is sometimes continuous and sometimes discrete. The existence of both continuous and discrete behavior created the need for a different type of model. This is the concept behind dynamic equations on time scales. For example, dynamic equations can model insect populations that are continuous while in season, die …


C*-Extreme Points Of The Generalized State Space Of A Commutative C*-Algebra, Martha Gregg Apr 2008

C*-Extreme Points Of The Generalized State Space Of A Commutative C*-Algebra, Martha Gregg

Department of Mathematics: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

The generalized state space of a commutative C*-algebra, denoted SH(C(X)), is the set of positive unital maps from C(X) to the algebra B(H) of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space H. C*-convexity is one of several non-commutative analogs of convexity which have been discussed in this context. We show that a C*-extreme point of SH(C(X)) satisfies a certain spectral condition on the operators in the range of an associated measure, which is a positive operator-valued measure on …

Obituary: Terry Lamon Yates, 1950-2007., Robert J. Baker, David J. Schmidly, Joseph A. Cook, Jorge Salazar-Bravo, Hugh H. Genoways

University of Nebraska State Museum: Mammalogy Papers

On December 11, 2007, the science of mammalogy lost one of its most valued and influential leaders. Terry Lamon Yates succumbed to complications of treatments for an aggressive form of brain cancer after a brief but courageous fight. He was born on March 17, 1950, in Mayfield, Kentucky, the older son of Ellen Wanda Byrd and William Hanley Yates. Terry’s only sibling was a brother, Johnny. He is survived by his wife Nancy Fennell Yates, his two sons, Brian Christopher and Michael Ryan, and daughter-in-law Laura Manchéno Macia.
