Over the past several years, increases in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) have coincided with the 2007-2008 recession and the higher rates of unemployment in the U.S. With SNAP being the largest program, in terms of spending embedded in the farm bill, it is likely to see some spending...
The Women’s Development Army (WDA), an all-female workforce of unpaid Community Health Workers (CHW), is Ethiopia’s answer to improving rural health. Through the WDA, Ethiopia’s government says it is empowering women to spark change in their community by disseminating healthy behaviors and by advocating on their own behalf to health...
The method of gas-phase electron diffraction is a very useful tool for determining
the geometry of a molecule in the gas-phase to a high degree of accuracy. In this thesis,
the structures of tropone and tropolone, which are similar molecules that are both based
on a 7-carbon ring, were investigated...
A flipped classroom provides students with course content in the form of videos, readings, and/or simulations that they complete during the time traditionally used for homework assignments while in-class time is devoted to hands-on group learning activities. Project BoxSand is gathering quantitative data on how students in a flipped classroom,...
Objective: This study presents an in-depth review of the correlations between peer learning methods and Academic success for students within the Oregon State University introductory PH 20X physics series. This study also sought to determine how, if any, demographics impacted the relationship between these correlates, and if the course structure...

There has been a growing focus within the physics education field on researching the determinants to student success in college physics. Numerous investigations have examined the relationship between initial mathematical competency and student performance in college physics and have found considerable positive correlations. We contribute to this existing research on...
