The purpose of this study was to determine if
students' school-related attitudes are significantly
affected by teacher classroom discipline management based
upon concepts contained in Judicious Discipline: A Constitutional
Perspective for School Rules (Gathercoal, 1986).
The data relative to student school-related attitudes
of elementary, middle, and high school students toward...
The purpose of this study was to assess the attitudes of teachers at the
elementary, middle, and high school levels toward student rights and
classroom management. Specifically this study was designed to analyze the
effect Judicious Discipline: A Constitutional Perspective for School Rules and
Decisions had upon teacher attitudes toward...
The central purposes of this study were to review the
historical sources of David Kolb's formulation of experiential
learning theory, and to determine the effect and
application of Kolb's theory and Learning Style Inventory
as reflected in the literature between 1971 and 1990.
It was found that Kolb based his...
Influenza A and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) are both enveloped, negative strand
RNA viruses which infect the respiratory mucosa of animals and humans. Despite
decades of research and development of antivirals and vaccines, both of these viruses
continue to be a major health concern throughout the world. The focus of...
Community colleges in the United States have become an important educational destination for international students. According to the Institute of International Education (IIE, 2006), international students who enrolled for the first time at a U.S. campus increased by 8 per cent, from 131,946 students in 2004/2005 to 142,923 in 2005/2006....
Billions of pounds of bisphenol A (BPA) are produced annually around the globe for the manufacture of numerous consumer products, including polycarbonate food and water containers, the protective resin linings of food cans, thermal printing paper, and dental fillings. BPA exposure during nervous system development has been associated with learning...
For the past half century, CMOS process scaling has followed Moore's law, approximately doubling transistor density every 18 months. While locally routed wires have generally scaled with transistor size, longer wires have scaled at a slower rate and in some cases have grown larger as chip size and complexity have...
High Temperature Gas Reactors (HTGRs) are positioned to disrupt local and global markets via their unique ability to produce carbon-free process heat, high efficiency power generation, and passively safe operational features. However, significant impediments still exist to delay deployment of this particular technology, including a lack of experimental data, verified...
The complexity of designing and testing today's system on chip (SOC) is increasing due to greater integrated circuit (IC) density and higher IO and memory frequencies. SOCs for the mobile phone and tablet market have the unique challenge of short product development windows, at times less than six months, and...
