No full textDo MORE than Just Finish: How to Thrive During the Dissertation Process and Write a Well-Funded, Award-Winning Dissertation that Propels You into A Sustainable Research Agenda and Career
No full textAs the winner of five major dissertation awards and six additional graduate student research awards while procuring over $20,000 in funding to support her dissertation scholarship, Dr. Emma Bullock, Ph.D. (2018 SERA Bruce Thompson Outstanding Paper Award) knows how to approach the dissertation process so you earn multiple job interviews (Dr. Bullock had 25 phone interviews and 10 on-campus interview requests in her last year of grad school) and propel your career. From conceptualization to defense and the job interview, Dr. Bullock will share how to effectively and efficiently select your committee, select your topic and research question(s), hone your research skills, write a literature review, pilot your ideas, build your academic network, procure funding, use the resources your school and professional organizations offer, write in 30 minute increments, present and defend your findings, solicit spectacular letters of recommendation, and apply for awards that will propel you into a successful job interview process that promotes your research agenda and future career. You do not need to settle for just finishing. Bring YOUR dissertation ideas and learn how to use the dissertation process as the means toward accomplishing your academic and professional dreams in this interactive and fun workshop

Towards causal predictions of site-level treatment effects for applied ecology
No full textWith limited land and resources available to implement conservation actions, efforts must be effectively targeted to individual places. This demands predictions of how individual sites respond to alternative interventions. Meta-learner algorithms for predicting individual level treatment effects (ITEs) have been pioneered in marketing and medicine, but they have not been tested in ecology. We present a first application of meta-learner algorithms to ecology by comparing the performance of algorithms popular in other disciplines (S-, T-, and X-Learners) across a broad set of sampling and modelling conditions that are common to ecological observational studies. We conducted 4,050 virtual studies that measure the effect of forest management on soil carbon. These varied in sampling approach and meta-learner algorithm. The X-Learner algorithm that adjusts for selection bias yields the most accurate predictions of ITEs. Our findings pave the way for ecologists to leverage machine learning techniques for more effective and targeted management of ecosystems in the future
Secondary Literacy Across the Curriculum
No full textThis paper discusses the challenges and possibilities attendant upon successfully implementing literacy across the curriculum initiatives – or ‘school language policies’ as they have come to be known – particularly at the secondary or high school level. It provides a theoretical background to these issues, exploring previous academic discussions of school language policies, and highlights key areas of concern as well as opportunity with respect to school implementation of such policies. As such, it provides a necessary conceptual background to the subsequent papers in this special issue, which focus upon the Secondary Schools’ Literacy Initiative (SSLI) – a New Zealand funded programme that aims to establish cross-curricular language and literacy policies in secondary schools
