The purpose of this study was to explore some of the factors White
educators need to teach Black students effectively. It examined what role the
race of the teachers may play in Black students' academic success and whether
White teachers are able and willing to meet the educational needs of...
This thesis documents a method of proving that Turing machines
work for every case, if the construction of the Turing machine is
known. Mathematical Induction is used to construct the proof that the
Turing machine for binary addition will work in every well-formed case
of the input that it receives....
This investigation attempts to demonstrate that the development
of the early 20th century biological enterprise involved a striving for a
unifying theoretical perspective. A skeletal substantiation of this is
given by an overview of early 20th century biology in which some
biologists began recognizing a multiplicity of different orders of...
Pinot noir vines, trained to the Scott Henry trellising system were separated into four different quadrants: Bottom canopy, trained toward the ground; Top canopy, trained upwards; East orientation, receiving the morning sunlight; and West orientation, receiving afternoon sunlight. Yield components and fruit composition were measured for each canopy, orientation, and...
This study has analyzed factors which affect the accumulation of terrestrial organic debris within natural gravel streambeds. In
addition, the amounts, sizes, and physical conditions of intruded material were measured, along with the effect of the detritus on intragravel dissolved oxygen levels. Measurements indicate that aged intragravel detritus had no...
This analysis concerns the life and scientific work of Henry
Augustus Rowland (1848-1901), organizer and the first chairman of
the physics department at The Johns Hopkins University in 1876.
Special materials used in this research included three pieces of
Rowland's experimental apparatus which are extant in the Smithsonian
Institution Division...
