Connecting Through Cortland
No full textResearch shows that students who participate in campus activities feel more connected, have better mental health, and perform better academically. The goal of my lesson was to encourage freshmen to engage in every way that they can in order to create meaningful connections with their peers and make Cortland feel like home. The lesson was centered around an activity where students interacted with each other with the intention of making connections. An emphasis was placed on creating an interactive classroom community that supports student involvement. Additionally, students were provided information about joining clubs, attending Cortland events, sports opportunities, Greek life, and other student organizations as a way to build connections.https://digitalcommons.cortland.edu/cor101posters/1126/thumbnail.jp

Evaluating the effectiveness of a training for caregivers on using Read and remove, Ask, Answer, Prompt (R2AAP) strategy during shared adapted book reading with their children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD)
No full textFor children with autism spectrum disorder who have communication and social skills challenges, it can be difficult for them to engage in shared book-reading activities. Caregivers of children with autism spectrum disorder with limited verbal communication may not intuitively know how to engage in these activities with their children. Although there is research on shared book reading, none have used adapted books with this population. This study bridges this research gap. The following question is explored – 1). how effective is an online communication partner training in teaching caregivers a communication strategy to incorporate with their children with autism spectrum disorder during shared book reading of adapted books? This study utilizes a single subject multiple baselines across participants design with three caregivers and their children with autism spectrum disorder. Training included online interactive elements to teach caregivers a communication strategy called: Read and remove, Ask, Answer, Prompt (R2AAP), that they will use during adapted shared book reading with their children with autism spectrum disorder, as well as live practice sessions during which caregivers implemented the strategy, had an opportunity to ask questions, and received feedback. The strategies introduced through a series of 8 training modules can be a long-term intervention technique that caregivers can use to increase their child’s ability to engage with adapted books during shared reading activities. Results indicated that training was effective in teaching caregivers the R2AAP strategy to incorporate with their children with autism spectrum disorder during shared book reading of adapted books.https://digitalcommons.cortland.edu/posters/1059/thumbnail.jp
Phenol 2-monooxygenase Produces Catechol, an Important Precursor in Pharmaceuticals
No full textPhenol hydroxylase (EC 1.14.13.7) is a class B flavin-dependent monooxygenase from Trichosporon cutaneum (aerobic topsoil yeast).¹ Phenol hydroxylase is involved in synthesizing o-diols using phenol as a precursor.¹ Phenol hydroxylase catalyzes a reaction that adds oxygen to phenol’s ortho position, producing catechol.¹https://digitalcommons.cortland.edu/collaborative_bioinfographics_project/1014/thumbnail.jp
The Adirondack frontier: reclaiming a vital role in shaping the nation
Full text linkThe traditional version of Adirondack history from the revolutionary period to the middle of the nineteenth century, which portrays the region as unexplored primeval wilderness, is nineteenth-century romantic mythology. It ignores thousands of years of Indigenous habitation and misrepresents early Euro-American activity in the region as well. In fact, from the earliest days of colonial exploration of North America until the middle of the 19th-Century, New York\u27s Adirondack region was a dynamic American frontier, as important in shaping the destiny of the nation as the Northwest Territory or, later, the West. Activities in the Adirondack frontier contributed to the decimation of Indigenous populations, secured the outcomes of the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812, shaped America’s northern border, powered Manifest Destiny, changed the social justice landscape, contributed to the dominance of Federalist monetary policy, and much more. The United States of today is in no small part a product of the Adirondacks of yesterday.
One of the lesser-known aspects of the Adirondack frontier is its remarkable contribution to the evolving relationships between science, technology and engineering in a rapidly industrializing world. This thesis argues that from the end of the Revolutionary War until the middle of the nineteenth century, a conjuncture of borderless frontier dynamics, challenging topography, abundant mineral resources and the Industrial Revolution created a unique environment for technological development and innovation, with dramatic consequences for the nation
