Exploration of job opportunities and student involvement in learning are important principles of education. Congress recognized and emphasized these principles through recent legislation expanding education in several fields. Expanded vocational education has especially stressed job exploration and involvement in work programs. In many cases, however, this has come too late...
This is a bibliography of the work of T. L. Jackson, who conducted research at the North Willamette Research and Experiment Center. It is limited to those Extension publications and research reports that addressed the nutrient needs of fresh market and processed vegetables.
A small eddy viscosity or mass diffusivity that varies with height has been found to have unexpected effects on the Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) instability of a stably stratified shear layer near the neutral stability boundary. In particular, varying viscosity can increase the growth rate of the instability in contrast to the...
The transition of mature pollen to the progamic phase represents an important step in the regulation of plant sexual reproduction. The progamic phase encompasses the initiation of pollen tube germination, growth of the pollen tube through the stigma (the silk in maize) and concludes with fertilization of the female gametophyte....
The ability of ovine endometrium incubated in vitro with
estradiol -17(3 to synthesize a specific induced protein (IP) was
studied. Endometrium from cycling, pregnant and ovariectomized
ewes was used.
Twelve ewes were allotted in equal numbers to be sacrificed on
days 0 (estrus), 3, 6, or 10 of the estrous...
The fish Cymatogaster aggregata, Embiotoca lateralis and
Phanerodon furcatus served as definitive hosts for the trematode
Telolecithus pugetensis Lloyd and Guberlet. Eggs that were collected
from the terminal part of the uterus of mature worms were found to
have undergone several cleavages, but complete development was
observed only in some...
This research questions the effectiveness of newspapers as a
vehicle of environmental information by determining whether the
public attitude in Alaska towards off-shore oil exploration was
consistent with that expressed in the local newspapers. All
newspaper articles about off-shore oil exploration published in
Alaska between 1980 and May 1987 were...
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a deep
breathing and stretching exercise on communication Apprehension,
Cohesiveness and Attentiveness. An empirical method was used in
this study. All of the subjects involved in the study were students
in beginning public speaking courses, Speech 112, at Oregon...
A field study was conducted to determine the applicability of multivariate
geostatistical methods to the problem of estimating and simulating pesticide
concentrations in groundwater from measured concentrations of nitrate and pesticide,
when pesticide is undersampled. Prior to this study, no published attempt had been made
to apply multivariate geostatistics to...
The central purposes of this study were to review the
historical sources of David Kolb's formulation of experiential
learning theory, and to determine the effect and
application of Kolb's theory and Learning Style Inventory
as reflected in the literature between 1971 and 1990.
It was found that Kolb based his...
