Purposes of the Study: The study had several purposes, the major one being to identify common professional education competencies essential to adequate performance by administrators of vocational education at the community college level. Other purposes of the study were to: (1) determine if significant differences existed in vocational administration competencies...
As the world’s population continues to increase every year, a greater proportion of people are living in urban environments. This process of global urbanization has been previously shown to affect evolution of plants and animals by restricting gene flow, increasing genetic drift, and causing divergent selection between rural and urban...
Internship and field experience programs have been used to
prepare educators for roles in public school teaching and administration;
junior college and university teaching, and adult education.
Based on a survey of the literature it is apparent that little attention
has been given to the role that these internship and...
Mounting inflationary economic pressures and the obvious spiralling costs of education, at all levels, has drastically augmented public, administrative, and government concern regarding the effectiveness of many educational training programs. Secretarial Science, which is designed to provide occupational-level training represents such a program. Therefore, this study was conducted in order...
The longitudinal magnetoresistance of single-crystals of
mercury is investigated experimentally, both in the low field and
the high field regions. The variation of the magnetoresistance with
crystal purity, orientation, size and temperature below 4.2°K is
presented. In the low field region the data are discussed in terms
of existing theory....
Pseudomonas is a diverse, ubiquitous, and widely studied genus of bacteria. As Pseudomonas species occupy a wide range of niches in the ecosystem, they have made remarkable biological impacts. Better understanding of Pseudomonas biology, genetic diversity, and functional interactions with other organisms and the environment will provide valuable insights into...
Caenorhabditis elegans is arguably the best understood animal on the planet.
Used for over 50 years to study development, we have a vast amount of knowledge of
the inner workings of this worm. Our knowledge is incomplete, however, without
placing this organism in its evolutionary and ecological context. In this...

Caenorhabditis elegans is arguably the best understood animal on the planet
Mutualistic associations between corals and symbiotic microalgae of the genus Symbiodium power tropical reef ecosystems, hotspots of marine biodiversity that buffer coastlines, support tourism- and fisheries-based economies, and offer untapped potential for discovery of novel pharmaceutical compounds. However, reef ecosystems are declining at an alarming rate, in large part due...
