Visualization in environmental science

Creator:: Winters, Kirsten M.
Abstract:: The VISualization of Terrestrial and Aquatic Systems (VISTAS) software development project began with the proposition that visualization would increase the ability of scientists to explore and communicate their data, especially complex datasets that span multiple spatial and temporal scales. A case study of VISTAS articulates how and why scientists intend...

A Social Constructivist Perspective Connecting Engineering Practice and Engineering Education

Creator:: Panther, Grace C.
Abstract:: Calls for reform within engineering education frequently cite the need to better prepare the future workforce for the imminent challenges that they will face. The focus in preparing students for the workforce is often on the educational system and not on understanding the actual workplace. But if we are to...

Social capital in engineering education

Creator:: Brown, Shane
Abstract:: A theoretical argument is presented to suggest that engineering curriculum be designed to develop social capital. Additionally, the value of social capital in the retention of students in the College of Engineering, and the development, role, and value of social capital in an electrical engineering laboratory is evaluated. Data collected...

Transgender and Gender Nonconforming Undergraduate Engineering Students: Perspectives, Resiliency, and Suggestions for Improving Engineering Education

Creator:: Haverkamp, Andrea E.
Abstract:: Gender has been the subject of study in engineering education and science social research for decades. However, little attention has been given to transgender and gender nonconforming (TGNC) experiences or perspectives. The role of cisgender or gender conforming status has not been investigated nor considered in prevailing frameworks of gender...

Reconceptualizing Science Communication: Investigating the Role of Discourse, Identity, and Cultural Models for Socially Controversial Science Topics at the Explore Evolution Exhibit in Three Museums

Creator:: Robichaux, Laia
Abstract:: Science is one of the fundamental building blocks of modern societies, and though some science topics are easily accepted by public audiences, others generate intense social controversy by challenging beliefs that are fundamental to a person’s, or group’s, identity. The Theory of Evolution is one of these “hot-button” issues, as...

Radically reframing environmental problems : The Salmon 2100 case study

Creator:: Lane, David Earl
Abstract:: There are typically two responses to the complex environmental problems of our time: 1) doom and gloom and 2) optimism. There is a lot of doom and gloom in the environmental literature. This literature warns that the future portends danger for humans and their life support systems. But when one...

Applications of Nonthermal Microplasmas in Chemical Reaction Engineering

Creator:: Kreider, Peter B.
Abstract:: Nonthermal plasmas generate high concentrations of excited species that can simultaneously exist at high energy and far from thermodynamic equilibrium, making them useful tools in chemistry and engineering. Microplasmas, roughly defined as plasmas that are generated within sub-millimeter dimensions, provide enhanced stability, improved excited species density, increased nonequilibrium properties, higher...

Nonthermal Plasma Microreaction Engineering for Gas and Liquid Processing

Creator:: Pommerenck, Justin
Abstract:: Atmospheric pressure plasma is non-thermal at millimeter to micrometer separations. It represents an alternative low exergy initiator of many chemical reactions. In many instances heat, light or sound are not efficient providers of the necessary energy to overcome chemical activation barriers. The focus of this research is applying dc nonthermal...

Aspects of the Nature of Engineering for K-12 Science Education : A Delphi Study

Creator:: Hartman, Brian D.
Abstract:: Recent state and national standards have increased the interest in engineering at the K-12 level. Science standards, in particular, have begun to make the case for including engineering throughout the K-12 scope of study. Despite the increased attention to engineering, the characteristics and uniqueness of the field of engineering are...
