Teaching Julius Caesar With Differentiated Instruction: A Curriculum Unit Approach
No full textThis capstone project by Will Stackhouse, entitled “Teaching Julius Caesar with Differentiated Instruction: A Curriculum Unit Approach,” works through the main question which leads through the capstone project. The main concern of this project is dedicated towards putting the fun back into education, and how an instructor can create an educational curriculum which is based on the material at hand that will excite and help the student to learn. The challenges of differentiated instruction are that the process takes time and energy in the setup phase, but it leads to significant learning experiences. In approaching a four hundred-year old document which is written in Elizabethan English, how would one capture students’ interest? This is accomplished by using the newer approach known as differentiated instruction, which brings various senses into play and allows various approaches to be used based on the students’ strengths. Through approaching this material and reviewing literature, this project developed into a series of differentiated lessons that proved effective for learners in multiple ways using multiple approaches. The author found this approach effective in curriculum development, lesson completion, and the process opened a door to intellectual curiosity in students
Elizabeth Noel, Bath, [Somerset], to James Edward Smith, Marlborough Street, London
No full textHad heard from [Thomas] Velley that Smith was ill but infers from the advertisements for his series of lectures that he has recovered. Offers to send specimens of the 'Avena sterilis' she has planted as thanks for Smith's observations on it, remarks on the "animated flowers". Asks if Smith knows of a "Guernsey lily", which [Carl Peter] Thunberg believes to be from Japan, flowering a second time from one root, in England, without the use of a hothouse, as hers has. Details of how she achieved it, quotes [Thomas] Fairchild [(1667-1729)] from one of [William] Curtis' "Botanical Magazines", believes the same may be true of 'Amaryllis sarniensis'. [John] Stackhouse to visit, he is about to publish work on seaweed

Outplant method for phenological studies of chondrus-crispus in mechanically harvested beds
No full textA method is described employing a primary pottery unit for seeding and growing C. crispis Stackhouse and a secondary concrete platform for support and protection. The combined units facilitate long-term studies where frequent removal of plants for observation is required and where field conditions are adverse. Carrageenan is extracted for commercial purposes.PT: J; UT: BIOSIS:PREV197866032940Source type: Electronic(1
Pathogenesis of infection with Sarcocystis rauschorum (Apicomplexa) in experimentally infected varying lemmings (Dicrostonyx richardsoni)
No full textThis study describes the sequential formation of lesions associated with the endogenous development of Sarcocystis rauschorum (Apicomplexa: Sarcocystidae) in varying lemmings, Dicrostonyx richardsoni. Lethal doses of sporocysts (greater than 500) were orally administered to lemmings examined 1-6 days postinoculation (DPI) whereas sublethal doses were administered to lemmings examined subsequently. Transient necrosis and purulent inflammation, in association with precystic merogony, occurred in the liver by 4.5 DPI, peaked at 6 DPI and subsided beginning at 11 DPI with the liver returning to normal by 15 DPI. Cyst formation in skeletal and cardiac muscle was associated with purulent inflammation and sarcolemmal proliferation beginning at 9 DPI. These lesions persisted to 42 DPI. In addition, multifocal nonsuppurative meningoencephalitis was present in six of 11 infected lemmings examined between 11 and 15 DPI.LR: 20061115; PUBM: Print; JID: 0244160; ppublishSource type: Electronic(1
A study of political interest, competence, advocacy and awareness among social work students in the state of Georgia, 2014

The survey participants were composed of social work students enrolled in an accredited social work program in the state of Georgia, whereas the programs are also governed by the Council of Social Work Education. The findings of the study indicated that, of the social work students, a majority disagreed that they were politically interested, competent, participated in political advocacy or aware of political issues that impact social policy
