Learning in a physics classroom community : physics learning identity construct development, measurement and validation

Creator:

Li, Sissi L.

Abstract:

At the university level, introductory science courses usually have high student to teacher ratios which increases the challenge to meaningfully connect with students. Various curricula have been developed in physics education to actively engage students in learning through social interactions with peers and instructors in class. This learning environment demands...

Patterns of coastal cutthroat trout survival in two headwater stream networks

Creator:

Berger, Aaron M.

Abstract:

Mark-recapture methods were used to examine watershed-scale survival rates of coastal cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii clarkii) from two headwater stream networks located in the foothills of the Cascade Mountain Range, Oregon. Differences in survival were explored among spatial (stream segment, stream network [main stem or tributaries], and watershed) and temporal...

THESIS OF Aaron M. Berger for the degree of Master of Science in Fisheries Science presented on
Landscape-Level Approaches to Desert Bighorn Sheep (Ovis canadensis nelsoni) Conservation in a Changing Environment

Creator:

Creech, Tyler G.

Abstract:

Landscape characteristics can strongly influence demographic and genetic processes in wildlife populations. Climate change and human land use are causing many landscapes to change rapidly, and the effects on wildlife populations must be understood to properly manage these threats and design effective conservation strategies. In this dissertation, I explored the...
