The theoretical characteristics of space-charge-limited
currents in solids are reviewed, and a survey of
suitable dielectric materials and experimental space-charge-limited devices is presented.
The properties of the gold-silicon contact as used
in space-charge-limited devices were experimentally investigated.
It was found that the observed characteristics
could be explained on the basis...
In this study I discuss the state of Free-Choice Learning research, and an investigation into the use of personal ubiquitous technology on visitors' experiences at a science center. The three manuscripts included in this document:
1. Review published research on free-choice learning from 1997-2007 from selected journals
2. Examine visitors'...
Microplastics, plastic marine debris less than 5 mm in size, is a threat to the health of our oceans. One important way to reduce microplastics in our oceans is to educate people about the issue, particularly future decision-makers. In this study, a middle school curriculum was developed using current scientific...

Museums, aquariums, and technology centers are informal learning environments that facilitate the understanding of scientific phenomena while supporting self-motivated learning. Families are a social group that frequently visits these sites. There are multiple opportunities for adults and children to engage in independent sense-making and collective discussion about their experiences with...
Data visualizations designed for academic scientists are not immediately meaningful to everyday scientists. Communicating between a specialized, expert audience and a general, novice public is non-trivial; it requires careful translation. However, more widely available visualization technologies and platforms, including new three-dimensional spherical display systems in schools and informal science education...
