EFL Capstone Portfolio
No full textTeaching and Learning Department Capstone ProjectThis portfolio demonstrates my comprehensive understanding of the teaching of English language learners (ELLs). In my Philsophy of Teaching, I elaborate on my beliefs on how to help students thrive in a foreign language classroom and the theoretical framework on which I base my teaching practice. To address the eight standards for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL), I include in the portfolio the artifacts that prove my expertise in them. In each of the eight domains-planning, instructing, assessing, identity and context, language proficiency, learning, content, and commitment and professionalism, I show my careful consideration for learners, learning context, curriculum, and assessment. In the concluding part of my portfolio, I reflect on the implications of my graduate study on my future teaching and how I plan to solve the remaining questions about the teaching profession.Department of Teaching and LearningPeabody College of Education and Human Developmen

Simulating the universe with GPU-accelerated supercomputers: n-body methods, tests, and examples
Get PDFWe demonstrate the acceleration obtained from using GPU/CPU hybrid clusters
and supercomputers for N-body simulations of gravity based in part on the
author's new code development. Validation tests are shown for cosmological
simulations and for galaxy simulations, along with their respective speedups
compared to traditional simulations. Potential new applications for science
enabled by this advance are highlighted.Department of Physics and AstronomyCollege of Arts and Scienc
