UTC students and social media
No full textThe project aims to empower students to create and manage their own social media content. The project will encourage students to share a part of themselves with the world through building their digital portfolio on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitte
Toxic masculinity after swiping right
No full textThe present study focuses on recording initial messages sent within a popular dating application, while paying particular attention to trends of toxic masculinity and sexual objectification
Synthesis of functionalized scorpionate ligands and their corresponding Cu(I) and Mn(I) compounds
No full textTransition metal compounds are currently being considered as anticancer agents. A current subset of these compounds are metals with scorpionate ligands. Herein, we describe the synthesis and characterization of these compounds
Marie Curie, a woman who broke many barriers
No full textBreaking barriers is a topic from the History fair, and I chose Marie Curie. She was a women who broke barriers in science and women\u27s rights. She did more than any man could in one lifetime. I researched her life story, and her accomplishments
Anchor, window, mentor, mirror: exploring teacher- and student-directed use of text in the secondary ELA classroom
No full textHow do stories matter in the way we interact with literature and each other? To answer this question, we compiled a series of text sets, designed to challenge deficit mindsets and advocate for students of difference
Building a Raspberry Pi cluster for deep neural network-based civil infrastructure health monitoring
No full textThe purpose of this research is to build a low-cost Raspberry Pi computing cluster that can run deep learning simulations for civil infrastructure health monitoring applications
A simplified subsurface characterization for local-scale groundwater flow models in unconfined sand and gravel aquifers.
No full textA novel method to characterize subsurface hydrogeologic properties in unconfined sand and gravel aquifers is presented as a low-cost alternative to geological framework models used to develop groundwater flow models for wellhead protection programs
Photoacoustic thermometer: frequency shift of the photoacoustic signal due to analyte temperature variation
No full textPhotoacoustic (PA) Spectroscopy has rapidly developed for a wide variety of uses in recent years and continues to do so. This study describes how temperature affects the PA signal produced by ethene in order to develop a PA thermometer. Harmonics of three different length PA cells are examined to show how the shift in signal frequency changes with respect to cell length. The harmonic number was varied as well to describe how the change in signal frequency changes with respect to harmonic number. A CO2 laser was used in combination with a chopper to modulate the laser light. The signal was observed within a 65°C range from approximately 5°C to 70°C. A Dewar vacuum flask was used to insulate around the PA cell as the temperature was varied. Ice and thermal strips were used to lower and raise the temperature, respectively. Data was taken from low temperatures to high. The PA cell resonance frequency was seen to increase as the temperature was raised. Preliminary results show that data from graphs of resonance frequency v. the square root of absolute temperature fit 2nd order polynomials. Higher harmonics could be used to design more sensitive instruments. Sincerely
Trauma in contemporary poetry: realized guilt and differing closure in Gabriel: A Poem and Because: A Lyric Memoir
No full textIn Edward Hirsch’s Gabriel and Joshua Mensch’s Because, Hirsch and Mensch use poetry as a medium to process trauma. Both works are memory projects, an elegy and a memoir respectively, and both use unique, unconventional punctuation to convey meaning
