The Effect of Bullying Victimization and School Climate in Adolescents in rural China
Bullying victimization and school climate have been found to predict adolescents\u27 depression in western countries. However, it was unknown how these factors may affect adolescents in other countries such as Chinese rural adolescents. We aimed to examine whether bullying victimization and school climate interacted to predict Chinese rural adolescents\u27 depression. Participants were 705 adolescentes (60.7% female, M = 16.7, SD = 0.996, age range: 11-20 years), and they were recruited from a boarding school in rural China. Adolescents reported on school climate, depression and bullying victimization. Results stated that bullying victimization positively predicted adolescents’ depression and the prediction was stronger when school climate was better as compared to a more negative school climate. Therefore, depending on the social, economic or environmental context that the adolescent is in, it could make them more vulnerable to the impact that bullying victimization and school climate create.https://digitalcommons.cortland.edu/posters/1055/thumbnail.jp
The harmful effects of book banning in New York State
There have been 4,231 book bans across America just in the 2023-2024 school year (PEN America, 2024). Book Banning is becoming an increasingly prevalent issue in today\u27s society, and with our current political climate, it has the potential to worsen. This research will focus on where book bans originated from, and how they have continued to happen in modern day education. Through literary analysis, this research will examine how censorship is affecting elementary education and its students. There will be a focus on New York State, and how book banning is affecting public education here
Time and Stress Management: Productivity Without Pressure
This poster explains the lecture I had given in COR 101 about Time and Stress Management. I explained how one affects the others, common stressors and time wasters. I had included strategies and resources that are on campus to help with these. Students were very engaged throughout the lesson so I could see that they were interested in this lesson and were going to use the strategies that were taught. This experience helped me learn how to control a class and lecture a class as wellhttps://digitalcommons.cortland.edu/cor101posters/1111/thumbnail.jp
Wellness in Transition
I chose to focus my symposium poster on “Wellness in Transition,” emphasizing the importance of mental health awareness and its prevalence in college. According to The Healthy Minds research study produced by the University of Michigan, “Depression (37%), anxiety (33%), and eating disorders (28%) rated the highest psychiatric disorders among college students as of 2024-2025 school year” (Eisenhower et. al, 2024). College is responsible for increased coursework, relationship building, independence, financial strains, and fulfilling social pressures. It is important to share with students the warning signs, predispositions, and how to utilize campus resources to curb the rise of mental illness. Open discussion about mental illness can mitigate the stigma that impedes students from utilizing campus resources and reaching out for support.https://digitalcommons.cortland.edu/cor101posters/1123/thumbnail.jp
Study Smart, Not Hard
The lesson I taught focused on Learning Styles and Time Management, an essential topic for first-year students adjusting to the academic and personal independence of college life. Many new students struggle with balancing coursework, responsibilities, and stress, often because they have not yet developed effective study strategies or structured planning habits. My lesson introduced the VARK learning styles model, Visual, Auditory, Read/Write, and Kinesthetic, to help students understand how they learn best and how aligning study methods with learning styles improves productivity and academic performance. Through interactive activities such as a study habits warm-up and a weekly time-mapping exercise, students reflected on their current habits and created personalized strategies for success. The goal of the lesson was to equip students with practical tools to reduce procrastination, increase confidence, and manage their time more efficiently as they transition into college.https://digitalcommons.cortland.edu/cor101posters/1143/thumbnail.jp
Who are You? : Preparing For The Real World By Knowing Yourself
The topic I chose to teach was Identity VS personality . My presentation was based on this concept because it was introduced to me by my student facilitator when I was in COR and I believe it helped me make connections on campus. It\u27s hard to relate to people when you don\u27t know who YOU are. Beliefs and behaviors are influenced by the people you are surrounded by (AACAP, 2018). While this can be a good thing, to develop and maintain healthy relationships, enter with your own views (Schlitz,2016). Knowing yourself is important for personal wellbeing, social safety, and professionalism.https://digitalcommons.cortland.edu/cor101posters/1146/thumbnail.jp
Heptaprenyl Diphosphate Sythase\u27s Role in Isoprenoid Biosynthesis
This infographic aims to describe and characterize the function of heptaprenyl diphosphate synthase in the isoprenoid biosynthesis pathway. This enzyme converts (2E, 6E)-farnesyl diphosphate into all-trans-heptaprenyl diphosphate, which is used in the side chain synthesis for menaquinone-7 and ubiquinone-7.https://digitalcommons.cortland.edu/collaborative_bioinfographics_project/1013/thumbnail.jp
