The proposed widening of State Street between Lancaster
Avenue and 25th Street in Salem, Oregon was evaluated regarding potential
construction impacts on the biotic resources (vegetation, fish,
wildlife, and wetlands) in the immediate area. The existing setting
was surveyed to establish a base level from which to measure changes,
arid...
Several studies in recent years have demonstrated that upper-division students struggle with the
mathematics of thermodynamics. This paper presents a task analysis based on several expert attempts
to solve a challenging mathematics problem in thermodynamics. The purpose of this paper is twofold.
First, we highlight the importance of cognitive task...

Chain rules are critical to the process of solving many thermodynamics-related partial derivatives. This study evaluates the solution method and error evolution of students’ responses to a pair of chain rule problems in an upper-level undergraduate thermodynamics course. Students’ responses were categorized by solution method. Students’ solution methods included implicit...
