Teaching fundamental computer science concepts utilizing manipulatives

Creator:: Berliner, Garrett
Abstract:: This thesis presents innovative pedagogical approaches to teach fundamental Computer Science (CS) concepts, such as abstraction, representation, algorithms, and computation utilizing manipulatives, which are physical objects that students interact with to teach or reinforce a concept. Teaching and learning with manipulatives has a long history in science and mathematics education,...

Influence of Soil Texture on Carbon Storage of PNW Coastal Blue Carbon Ecosystems

Creator:: Fox, Conner S.
Abstract:: Coastal blue carbon ecosystems offer a variety of important ecosystem services, including exceptional rates of carbon sequestration and long-term carbon storage. Because these ecosystems disproportionately influence global carbon cycling, understanding their soil characteristics may help guide long-term climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies. Recently, Kauffman et al. (2020) observed the...

Peace literacy skills for better dialogue in science

Creator:: Anderson, Caleb
Abstract:: Each community of scientists brings with it a set of values. Many of the urgent problems facing our planet require interdisciplinary science teams, but these teams often hold values that conflict. The Toolbox Dialogue Initiative (TDI) offers templates and guidance designed to help interdisciplinary teams of scientists recognize and address...

Tracking the Range Expansion of a Native Bee, the Squash Bee, Eucera (Peponapis) pruinosa; (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in Oregon using Community Science

Creator:: Jones, Miranda L.
Abstract:: The foraging distance of bees has been intensely studied. In contrast, little is known about the factors that determine bee dispersal distance, especially on large spatial scales. Eucera (Peponapis) pruinosa is a wild ground nesting bee that exclusively collects pollen from squash in the genus Cucurbita. Although the bee occurs...

Opportunities and Limitations in Achieving Real-Time Observation of Soil Nitrate

Creator:: Auld, Ryan A.
Abstract:: There are many possible benefits that can arise from the ability to take real-time measurements of soil water nitrate concentrations in a field, from ecological to agricultural to industrial reasons. In order to achieve this, we adapted a NitraLED sensor with a ceramic porous cup in order to allow diffusion...
