The development of pre-service teachers' Technology Specific Pedagogy

O Criador:: Harrington, Rachel A.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to document the development of pre-service teachers' Technology Specific Pedagogy as they learned to teach mathematics with technology during their initial licensure program. The study investigated the pre-service teachers' learning using both a social and a psychological perspective of teacher learning. Two research questions...

Distribution, structure, and function of marine ecological communities in the northern California Current upwelling ecosystem

O Criador:: Reese, Douglas Charles
Abstract:: Within systems characterized by substantial spatial and temporal variability, abundances of organisms tend to be higher in localized areas. Within the northern California Current system, the identification of such marine, biological hotspots would be of great importance to resource managers, conservationists, and research planners, and is consequently a growing area...

Understanding health care utilization : a theoretically-based analysis of the Ecuadorian health care system

O Criador:: López-Cevallos, Daniel F.
Abstract:: One in four Ecuadorians do not have access to health services; while more than two-thirds have no health insurance and insufficient resources to pay for the health care services they might require. The following three studies examined utilization of health care services using Andersen’s Health Care Utilization Behavior Theory. Secondary...

Biophysical factors driving the distribution and abundance of redband/steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri) in the South Fork John Day River Basin, Oregon, USA

O Criador:: Madriñán, Luis Francisco
Abstract:: The overall goal of this study was to identify multiple scales of habitat use and habitat electivity by redband/steelhead trout and define the limiting factors affecting the distribution patterns of this species during summer flows. The main objective in chapter 2 was to identify the most important habitat associations that...

Efficient power conversion interface circuits for energy harvesting applications

O Criador:: Le, Triet T.
Abstract:: Harvesting energy from the environment for powering micro-power devices have been increasing in popularity. These types of devices can be used in embedded applications or in sensor networks where battery replacement is impractical. In this dissertation, different methods of energy harvesting from the environment are explored as alternative sources of...

An emerging role for the exocyst : plant morphogenesis

O Criador:: Cole, Rex A.
Abstract:: Plants develop a vast array of cell shapes and sizes by selectively modifying their surrounding cell walls to expand in some regions and not in others. This process of morphogenesis requires the delivery of secretory vesicles to specific locations at the cell periphery, where exocytosis adds new membrane and proteins...

Variability in mesoscale circulation and its effects on zooplankton distribution in the Northern California Current

O Criador:: Keister, Julie Eileen
Abstract:: In eastern boundary current upwelling ecosystems, mesoscale circulation features such as eddies and upwelling filaments play a prominent role in the transfer of water and the associated plankton from the productive nearshore to the oligotrophic deep sea. The relationship between mesoscale circulation, zooplankton distributions, and the across-shelf transport of coastal...

Making the connection to K-12 education for noncollege-bound students : the voices of students and workers address school experiences and workforce preparation

O Criador:: Campbell, Willa M.
Abstract:: This study examined the relationships between business, education, and the economy, and specifically addressed the significant impact that business has had on education and educational policy. A large amount of research exists on the history of school reform and the development of educational policy, but none of the research examined...

Hispanic community college student empowerment : developmental English participants describe their educational experiences

O Criador:: Lawrenson, Lisa Aguilera
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to learn about the experiences of Generation 1.5 Hispanics in developmental English in community college. A qualitative comparative case study design was used for this social critical study. The key findings fell into three categories: road blocks, motivators, and actions. The road blocks included:...

Response of soil microbial communities to physical and chemical disturbances: implications for soil quality and land use sustainability

O Criador:: Chaer, Guilherme M.
Abstract:: The objectives of this thesis were to evaluate the responses of soil microbial communities to physical and chemical disturbances, and associate these responses with soil functional stability and changes in soil quality. The first study consisted of application of heat shocks (HS) to soils with contrasting land use history to...
