Strengthening Trauma-Informed Practices in the Classroom
No full textDirect and indirect experiences of trauma influence not only student engagement in the classroom but also educator’s and leaders within educational communities. Trauma-informed program designs and protective relational practices are recognized as a best-practice approach. Yet, it can be challenging to know how to take theory and make it practical in classrooms, boardrooms, and family interactions. This presentation will briefly explain how educators can begin implementing trauma-aware and trauma-responsive techniques within their classes at varied intensity levels
Engaging Students in Written Reflection in Math and English Online Education
No full textReflective transfer, the process by which learners examine and enhance their own learning, requires active reflection and engagement on part of the learner. In this session, faculty from English and Math will share ways they use written reflection within their online courses. Representing synchronous and asynchronous modalities, presenters will share examples of written reflection questions used to engage students as active participants of the learning process in order to facilitate transfer of knowledge between contexts. At the end of this session, participants will develop reflective writing questions for use in their individual teaching contexts

No full textPeriodicities Related to Saturn’s Magnetospheric Dynamics
No full textSaturn\u27s magnetosphere exhibits periodicities ranging from minutes to days. A comprehensive understanding of the various physical drivers, their characteristic periods, and their potential interconnectedness is lacking. The shortest time scales have been attributed to field line resonances (FLR), which includes Saturn\u27s ubiquitous quasi-period of 60 minutes (QP60). However, more recent studies have suggested that Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) vortices on the magnetopause boundary have a characteristic time scale on the order of one to four hours; therefore, KH could also contribute to QP60. Substantial interest has also been generated by Saturn\u27s Planetary Period Oscillation (PPO) which is thought to be related to the planet\u27s rotation period (~10.7 hours), sourced in the ionosphere/atmosphere. However, there is also significant periodic behavior at longer timescales, ranging from \u3e11 hours to days. We suggest that subcorotational periodicities are related to magnetospheric dynamics, presenting a key diagnostic of mass loss processes and magnetic flux circulation time scales. We use a continuous wavelet transform (CWT) analysis of Cassini magnetic field (MAG) and density fluctuations (CAPS/ELS) for an ensemble of orbits in the midnight sector and dawn/dusk flank regions to quantify Saturn\u27s non-PPO periodicities. Comparison with equivalent time series taken from Grid Agnostic MHD for Extended Research Applications (GAMERA) simulations will be made to determine the possible contributions from KH waves on the magnetopause boundary and periodic plasmoid formation in the tail under steady solar wind conditions. We will analyze the simulation results with information theory to determine linear and non-linear relations, giving clues to the source mechanisms for periodic behavior
