An exploration of linguistic responsiveness of SBAE teachers when teaching linguistically diverse students

Creatore:: González Morales, Amy M.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to explore and describe how the orientations and knowledge of linguistically responsive teaching, as well as personal characteristics of school-based agriculture education (SBAE) teachers, influence the frequency of their implementation of linguistically responsive practices. Grounded in the Linguistically Responsive Teaching framework by Lucas and...

Timescales and tectonics of oceanic plateaus : long-term evolution of Ontong Java Nui and Rio Grande Rise

Creatore:: Davidson, Peter C.
Abstract:: Oceanic plateaus are regions of overthickened oceanic crust and are often thought to form from the interaction of mantle plumes with oceanic lithosphere. These regions can cover vast areas of the ocean basins and represent a highly elevated magmatic flux relative to normal mid-ocean ridge spreading. Oceanic plateaus are considered...

Just a tool after all? No evidence for tool-use effects on the body representation across virtual and real environments

Creatore:: Bell, Joshua D.
Abstract:: While human tool-use proficiency helped define our history, the cognitive and perceptual mechanics of how humans use tools are not fully understood. This question is of great value to the design of hand-held tools and prosthetics. A prominent theory, tool embodiment, suggests that tool use is facilitated by a flexible...

Adolescent Suicide Through the Lens of 13 Reasons Why: A Corpus Based Study

Creatore:: Ware Zooi, Rachel
Abstract:: With growing recognition of adolescence as the time in which suicidal thoughts and behaviors first occur, early identification and intervention systems in schools have become an international priority. Understanding and incorporating language indicators associated with the core psychological and interpersonal processes of adolescent suicidality could provide promising tools for school...

Emergent Properties of Animal Social Networks: Five Stories in Five Systems

Creatore:: Devan-Song, E. Anne
Abstract:: Animals aggregate and interact in nonuniform and nonrandom patterns, which lead to group level characteristics that have important evolutionary and ecological consequences. Network analysis provides a useful conceptual framework for linking animal interactions at all scales from dyads to communities, to populations and ecosystems. Despite exciting theoretical and applied advances...

A socio-technical study on the improved characterization of stakeholder behaviors and stream temperature in design of watershed conservation practices for climate change adaptation

Creatore:: Noa-Yarasca, Efrain
Abstract:: Characterizing stakeholder behavior when making decisions in watershed management is a great challenge for planners, not only because plans are associated with physical uncertainties but also because stakeholders’ behaviors are influenced by numerous factors. Since stakeholders’ decision-making is linked to multiple types of uncertainty, communication of uncertainty to stakeholders by...

Faculty Perceptions and Realities Informing Curricular and Instructional Improvements in Postsecondary STEM Education: Development of Transdisciplinary Curricula, Notions of Successful Students, and the Use of Student-Learning Data

Creatore:: Lenhart, Cindy A.
Abstract:: Research has confirmed a lack of diversity and persistence of underrepresented populations in the STEM fields. Recruiting and retaining more women and people of color into STEM fields has long been a goal of higher education, per a notable lack of women and people of color who enter and complete...

Implementation Science in Teaching and Learning in Higher Education: A Mixed-Methods Study of the Utility Value Intervention in General Psychology Courses

Creatore:: Soicher, Raechel N.
Abstract:: Despite the dissemination of comprehensive reviews and teacher-friendly resources describing evidence-based practices to improve student outcomes, the adoption of these practices is slow and inconsistent across instructors at colleges and universities. To help reduce this research-practice gap, I argue for the application of implementation science to teaching and learning research...

Assessment of Social Sustainability for the Construction Workforce

Creatore:: Karakhan, Ali A.
Abstract:: Minimal research has focused on the social dimension of sustainability in the built environment especially as it relates to the construction workforce. As a result, there are few to no tools available to industry stakeholders to holistically assess and improve the social sustainability of the construction workforce. Given the high...

Transdermal Delivery of Atenolol to Cats

Creatore:: Mohamed, Sumeia M.
Abstract:: This thesis describes in-vitro and in-vivo evaluation of a transdermal atenolol formulation developed at Oregon State University, College of Pharmacy. The formulation was prepared from carbomer as a gel base with propylene glycol, glycerol, ethanol, polysorbate 80 and dimethyl-isosorbide (DMI) as mixture of penetration enhancing agents. The effect of the...
