An Exploration of the Research Capacity Building Potential of Informal Higher Education Marine Science Programs in an International Context

Creator:: Moskel, Jennifer M.
Abstract:: Informal higher education science learning programs are increasingly being used as a tool to build scientific research capacity. However, there is low understanding of the impact that these programs on their target audiences, which is important to future capacity building efforts and program design. The purpose of this research project...

Communicating science : developing an exhibit with scientists and educators

Creator:: Lemagie, Emily
Abstract:: Outreach is a small, but significant component to modern research. Developing an exhibit for public display can be an effective way to communicate science to broad audiences, although it may be a less familiar method to scientists than writing papers or giving presentations. I outline the process of developing an...

Anything You Can Do: The Effect of Observed Model Perseverance on Students' Persistence in an Unrelated Task

Creator:: Stone, Arianna M.
Abstract:: Task persistence has been associated with task mastery in many different realms of learning, and is thought to be evoked particularly through the observation of positive models; however, the capability of such exposures to transfer across domains is not currently well-understood. The present study sought to examine the effect of...

Professional Development Training in Ocean Acidification: A Case Study of Marine Resource Managers

Creator:: Moses, Michael L.
Abstract:: Ocean acidification (OA) is the result of increasing concentrations of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions, leading to a suite of alterations to specific parameters of ocean chemistry, which can negatively impact many marine organisms and ecosystems. Understanding how to measure and monitor the chemistry of OA will require specialized education...

Toward establishing the validity of the transformative optimism construct measurement for tsunami preparedness : a structural equation model for visitors of the Pacific Northwest coast

Creator:: Ríos-Uribe, Carlos Andrés
Abstract:: Measurements of social constructs that evaluate natural hazard preparedness are important to decrease natural hazard vulnerability. Preparedness reduces natural hazard impacts and human vulnerability. Investment in education and education research contribute to human sustainable development and natural hazard preparedness. Faced with other needs, people typically do not prepare enough to...

Exploring the foundations of science interest development in early childhood

Creator:: Pattison, Scott A.
Abstract:: There is growing evidence that children develop science-related interests in early childhood, before they enter school, and that these interests may have long-term implications for science participation and achievement. Although researchers have made headway in describing interest development in the preschool years, little is currently known about the proximal processes...

Serious fun : life-deep learning of koi hobbyists

Creator:: Liu, Chi-Chang
Abstract:: Hobby activities can be viewed through the lens of informal, free-choice learning. A wide range of hobbies combine fun and learning-intensive practices, and can contribute to scientific literacy. Hobby learning involves clear goal orientation, persistence and effort, and often results in more richly and strongly connected knowledge; traits highly valued...

Responsive pedagogies of practice : Researching an ambitious secondary mathematics teacher education design

Creator:: Campbell, Matthew Paul, 1983-
Abstract:: Design in secondary mathematics teacher education must prepare teacher candidates to do the work of ambitious and equitable mathematics teaching with skill by situating development in the work of teaching and incorporating opportunities to investigate and enact teaching. Teacher education designs must also be responsive to the work that mathematics...
