Decoupling control technology for medium STOL transports

The advanced control technology is considered that is necessary to cope with the medium STOL transport landing problem and, in particular, the necessity to decouple with active control techniques. It is shown that the need to decouple is independent of the powered lift concept but that the provisioning for decoupling is most greatly dependent on the preassumed piloting technique. The implications of decoupling and active control techniques with respect to pilot technique options, handling quality criteria, flight control mechanization, and the use of piloted simulation as a design tool, are also discussed

Self-esteem, television viewing behavior, and parasocial interaction with a favorite television personality

This study examined the role of television personalities, television viewing behavior, and self-esteem, on the development of parasocial interaction. Two hundered and twenty six undergraduate and graduate students responded to a questionnaire that asked the students to report who their favorite television personality was as well as their television viewing behavior. In addition, they reponded to statements measuring their level of parasocial interaction with their favourite television personality and their level of self-esteem

Who Is Molly?

Reopening Johnson County Hospital: The Beginning of Interprofessional Healthcare Education at ETSU

Johnson County Hospital was a hospital located in Mountain City, TN that existed from 1972 until its final closure in 1998. The hospital faced multiple financial challenges during its existence and was forced to close three times. In 1988 it closed for the penultimate time, and as it had in the past, it counted on the community, local business and local government to reopen the hospital. Three local businessmen were particularly dedicated to reopening the county hospital and reached out to East Tennessee State University (ETSU) and their newly formed College of Medicine. A partnership was formed between the community and ETSU to open a rural campus to educate medical, nursing, public health and allied health students. This rural campus was made a reality through the Kellogg Grant awarded to ETSU in 1991 and was expanded to include graduate medical education in 1996. This collaboration between the community, local businesses, local government and ETSU was able to reopen the hospital in 1992 and jump-started interprofessional education at ETSU which is continued today in the form of the Academic Health Sciences Center and the Interprofessional Education Program

Including English language learners in Algebra One instruction

Inclusion in the classroom can be difficult for teachers, but it is essential for all students to have equal access to education while feeling included and engaged in the classroom. I am a senior in the Mathematics Teaching program at the University of Northern Iowa whose graduates teach secondary mathematics. I have chosen to focus my research on this topic to inform my future in student teaching and in my own classroom, I have decided to focus my research on high school Algebra One courses. Algebra One is the first high school level math class students will take, so including ELLs in my instruction during this course is especially important. I want to explore how to include ELLs in my teaching and in the community of students in my classroom, which will require accommodations to my instruction. In the Algebra One classroom, accommodations may include how to physically set up my classroom, how to utilize math discussions, or how to adapt assignments and assessments. ELLs need to feel a sense of belonging and inclusion with their peers to learn. Inclusion of all students is a very important part of teaching, especially when some students feel separated from the class and content due to language differences, accommodations must be made for them. The students\u27 abilities to learn in the classroom is very important, as well as their need to feel part of the community I create in my classroom. My research question for this thesis is: How can I create an inclusive classroom environment for English language learners in an Algebra One class
