John B. Smith Archive - Periods and Themes Bundle 1 (1966-1970)
No full textA bundle of the works of John B. Smith corresponding to the period of 1966-1970, provided by John B. Smith from his personal collection. In this period, Smith was a Ph.D. student at the University of Virginia at Chapel Hill. Over the course of this degree, Smith was introduced to programming via a course on PL/1 programming for humanists with an emphasis on natural language processing, and developed a passion for that stream of research. The documents included in this bundle emerged from that early interest, and reflect a combination of Smith's work as research assistant to Sally Sedelow and his dissertation, <em>Imagery and the Mind of Stephen Dedalus</em>. Starting the summer of 1968, Smith worked as a research assistant for Sally Sedelow on her Automated Language Analysis research project while taking computer science and psychometric courses, and learning about the statistical analysis and modeling tools that gave him the tools to develop the programs and strategies used in his dissertation. The files provided here are a combination of PDFs scanned from original texts, .tif and .jpg versions of the relevant figures and illustrations, and an .html index file for the dissertation. All originals are held by John B. Smith
Singularities of Hinge Structures
No full textMotivated by the hinge structure present in protein chains and other molecular conformations, we study the singularities of certain maps associated to body-and-hinge and panel-and-hinge chains. These are sequentially articulated systems where two consecutive rigid pieces are connected by a hinge, that is, a codimension two axis. The singularities, or critical points, correspond to a dimensional drop in the linear span of the axes, regarded as points on a Grassmann variety in its Pl¨ucker embedding. These results are valid in arbitrary dimension. The three dimensional case is also relevant in robotics

IDEA 2004 : a mandate for social work services : are these services included in the IEPs of students with nonverbal learning disorder?
No full textThis study was undertaken to investigate the extent to which social work services are incorporated into Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) of students with Nonverbal Learning Disorder (NLD), who performs these services when they are incorporated into the IEP and are the services provided in accordance with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act (IDEA), (Public Law PL 108-446) and the mandate for related services defining Social Work services Sec.300.34. It was hypothesized, that implementing social work services in accordance with the mandate for related service as stated IDEA 2004, would improve the ability of students with Nonverbal Learning Disorder to perform in school. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected through the use of an online survey. Completed surveys from 49 Masters level Special Education public school teachers regarding their perceptions of the degree to which Social Workers play a role in the Special Education process related to students with NLD and the extent to which social work services are implemented consistent with guidelines for IEP management were analyzed. The findings of this study indicated a significant, positive strong correlation related to the frequency with which Social Workers attend IEP meetings for students with Nonverbal Learning Disorder and how often social work services are identified for this population of students
