Exhibition Handlist, Kathleen M. Webb

Supplemental Media: Catalogue, Handlist, Lectures, Events and More

In preparing for Imprints and Impressions, we ran across many interesting words that have fallen out of the general lexicon. With this booklet, we have brought one back: handlist. Dean Kathleen Webb ran across it in a 1944 booklet from the J. Pierpont Morgan Library in New York City. Though the word no longer appears in most new dictionaries, it’s still in the Oxford English Dictionary:

A list of a particular type or category of things, presented in a readily consultable form; esp. a list of the books or manuscripts in a particular place, on a particular subject, etc.; …

Digital Circuit Projects: An Overview Of Digital Circuits Through Implementing Integrated Circuits - Second Edition, Charles W. Kann

Open Educational Resources

Digital circuits, often called Integrated Circuits or ICs, are the central building blocks of a Central Processing Unit (CPU). To understand how a computer works, it is essential to understand the digital circuits which make up the CPU. This text introduces the most important of these digital circuits; adders, decoders, multiplexers, D flip-flops, and simple state machines.

What makes this textbook unique is that it puts the ability to understand these circuits into the hands of anyone, from hobbyists to students studying Computer Science. This text is designed to teach digital circuits using simple projects the reader can implement. But …

Student Growth Measures For Teacher And Principal Evaluations, Suzanne Franco, Allison Mueller

Symposium of Student Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activities Materials

There were three Ohio research efforts about Student Growth Measures (SGM) for Teacher and Principal Evaluations: 1) extended testing for previously non-­‐tested subjects and grades, 2) relationship between the teacher and principal evaluation systems’ implementation plans, and 3) an empirical study of Local Education Agencies’ (LEA) year-­‐end evaluation data from 2013. In 2011-­‐2012 Ohio offered a 2 year mini-­‐grant to LEAs agreeing to administer extended testing for Value-­‐Added measures (VAM) in grades and content areas not represented in the Ohio Achievement Assessment (OAA). The mini-­‐grant allowed the state to create testing pools sufficient to produce teacher-­‐level VAMs. American College Testing …

Research Exercise: Ud Iet Dayton Most Metro Chef Ten Question Interview

Stander Symposium Projects

Dayton Most Metro (DMM) is an online regional magazine which has created a ten question interview with local chefs. Currently 20 chef interviews have been completed and uploaded onto the website. DMM’s goal is to add to the amount of interviews posted online this spring 2014, but has run out of the manpower required to do so. The goal behind incorporating the Dayton IET 323 team is to aid DMM in accomplishing its goal. Our team will be conducting interviews with a minimum of eight Dayton area chefs which will be featured on the Dayton Most Metro site. In the …

A Look At Ohio's Past: A Focus On Ordovician And Silurian Period Fossils Found In The Dayton Area

Stander Symposium Projects

Ohio has a rich geologic history involving the Paleozoic era, specifically the Ordovician and Silurian periods of time for the southwestern part of the state. Ohio was once covered with tropical seas, the evidence for which are the marine fossils found in the limestones, dolomites, and shale rocks in the area. This research project involves a comparison of fossils and geological history of Clifton Gorge, Germantown MetroPark and other parks in the Dayton area. This project also includes a guide for educators on how to engage students through the connection of real world experiences at the high school level using …
