Promoting Conceptual Understanding of Fractions: Effects of Pedagogical Content Professional Development on Teachers' Confidence, Math Anxiety, and Student Achievement
When designing professional development for math teachers, teacher confidence, math anxiety, and student performance are factors to consider. St. Lucie Public Schools in Florida has seen a decline in performance in fifth-grade...
My goal in this study was to investigate the role of primary source projects (PSPs) on instructor growth regarding the post-secondary mathematics teaching. A PSP is a curricular material that aims to guide students reading of primary...
Attrition among Emotional/Behavioral Disorder (EBD) teachers in El County School District (ECSD) has been a problem. This study aimed to identify the leading causes of EBD teacher attrition within ESCD. Two research questions were...
This multiple probe across participants design evaluated the effectiveness of teaching early number sense skills (ENS) to young children (age 4) with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) using Number Talks with supports. Following...
This study investigated the effects of a problem solving instructional strategy known as Modified Schema Based Instruction (MSBI) on the Mathematical Practices of four students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The Common Core State...
Performance modeling and simulation of parallel applications are critical performance analysis techniques in High Performance Computing (HPC). Efficient and accurate performance modeling and simulation can aid the tuning and optimization...
Pre-Service Teachers Feel Ready, Set, Go on Day One?: Comparing Pre-Service Teachers Teaching Efficacy from a Center of Excellence Teacher Preparation Model and a Traditional Model
This qualitative study examined the unique perspectives of participants, who recently completed their elementary teacher education training, of their sense of effectiveness in leading students to learn, also known as teacher efficacy....
Mathematics involves abstract concepts and students often find it difficult to understand this complex subject (Ramani & Patadia, 2012). In order to succeed and wrestle with the difficulties in math, students should use different...
This dissertation observed and analyzed the experiences of five higher education students participating in a modified tabletop role-playing game (TRPG) intentionally modified for teaching adaptive leadership concepts. The study observed...
High performance computing(HPC) and data center systems have undergone rapid growth in recent years. To meet the current and future demand of compute- and data-intensive applications, these systems require the integration of a large...
This study illuminates the nuanced experiences of Asian international women students in Computer and Mathematical Sciences, and Engineering doctoral programs in the United States, a domain historically shaped by male dominance, White...
Public-school choice programs have multiplied over the past decades. Previous researchers have analyzed the significant roles that parents play when deciding what they think is best for their children’s futures. Though research has shown...
In the light of research suggestions, teachers have been tasked to empower students to experience mathematics as a dynamic process of exploration (Boaler & Greeno, 2000; Langer-Osuna, 2017; Romberg, 1994), rather than recalling a static...
Despite the critical role of school leaders in supporting teachers and improving student learning and the importance of ensuring qualified candidates to enter school leadership positions, perceptions and experiences of related to the...
Games have shown to be great tools for learning a variety of topics, but few games have been developed mathematics topics at the undergraduate level. One possible avenue is to pursue digital game-based learning. The game Vector Unknown...
Modern day high performance computing (HPC) clusters and data centers require a large number of computing and storage elements to be interconnected. Interconnect performance is considered a major bottleneck to the overall performance of...
This mixed-methods outcomes study investigated the number of in-school and out-of-school suspension reports before and after the implementation of a preventative-based discipline method, classroom circles. The study was guided by five...
College student leadership development is a commonly stated learning outcome in U.S. higher education including doctoral education. This dissertation study examines the leadership development of international doctoral students in...
There is an issue occurring in public schools that is not often addressed and that is the Black-White disparity in exclusionary discipline. The conversation often centers around the "achievement gap" or more recently the "opportunity gap...
