Abstract:
The purpose of the California Study of Elementary Mathematics is to examine the effects of state education reform in elementary mathematics curriculum on teaching and learning in elementary mathematics classrooms. In this article, we describe the methodology used in the study. We begin by providing an overview of the state policy that is aimed at realizing anew vision of mathematics teaching and learning. Then we describe participants and data collection procedures at each of four levels—state, school district, school, and classroom (teachers and students). We conclude with a description of me

Abstract:
Abstract The geomorphological formation of the Baja California peninsula and the Gulf of California is a principal driver of diversification for the reptiles of North America’s warm deserts. The western banded gecko, Coleonyx variegatus, is distributed throughout the Mojave, Sonoran and Peninsular deserts. In this study we use multilocus sequence data to address deep phylogeographic structure within C. variegatus. Analyses of mtDNA data recover six divergent clades throughout the range of C. variegatus. Topology of the mtDNA gene tree suggests separate origins of peninsular populations with an

The land surface temperature (LST) in arid regions is a primary controller of many ecological processes. Consequently, we have developed a framework for detection of LST change on a regional scale using data sets covering all deserts of southern California from the Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite sensor. The Breaks for Additive Season and Trend (BFAST) methodology was applied to MODIS 1-km monthly LST data from the years 2000 to 2018 to estimate significant time series shifts (breakpoints) and gradual trends.

Abstract Periodic surges of moisture from the Gulf of California are considered to be partly responsible for widespread showers and thunderstorms across the deserts of Arizona during the summer monsoon season. Presently, the primary method for detecting these surges is to look for changes in the surface observations at Yuma, Arizona. Unfortunately, these surface data are easily influenced by gust fronts, marine layers, and the dramatic diurnal patterns of the desert environment. Therefore, a new method for Assessing Low-level Atmospheric Moisture using Soundings (ALARMS) is proposed. Gulf surg

This paper investigates the factors affecting health information technology (IT) investment. Different from previous studies, health IT was measured as the dollar amount of hardware, software and labor related health IT. This study employed Hospital and Patient level data of the Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development (OSHPD) from 2000 to 2006. The generalized linear model (GLM) was employed with log link and normal distribution and controlled for clustering error. This study found that not-for-profit and government hospital, teaching hospitals, competition, health IT expenditure of neighborhood hospitals were positively associated with health IT expenditure. However, rural hospitals were negatively associated with health IT expenditure. Moreover, this study found a significant increase in health IT investment over seven years resulted from increased clinical IT adoption.

Abstract:
The goal in this qualitative study is to contribute to the growing understanding that heritage language (HL) teachers' literacy teaching beliefs and children's home linguistic environment mediate teachers' HL teaching strategies, including the micro-level language policy. Following the brief history of Korean HL schools in the USA, a case study conducted at two community-based Korean HL schools in California is presented. The primary data were collected through multiple teacher interviews and participant-observations in two Korean heritage language schools. The characteristics of two HL teachers' instruction capture their beliefs about literacy teaching and micro-level language policy in the classroom. The challenges of Korean-only instruction and HL education are discussed in relation to students' linguistic home environments and macro-level linguistic policy of the USA. The author concludes with the implications and recommendations for HL teachers, HL schools, and administrators regarding how to support bilingual competences and literacies of young children in minority communities.

This chapter relates how Esther Zimmer began working in bacteriology. At the beginning of September 1944, twenty-one-year old Esther Zimmer set off on a solitary four-day train journey to Palo Alto, California. Soon after arriving she met Edward Tatum, who was so impressed with her understanding of genetics that he invited her to be his teaching assistant in the graduate course in genetics. During the summer between her first and second years in graduate school, Zimmer took two courses in bacteriology taught by Cornelius van Niel. His bacteriology courses inspired a generation of molecular biologists and energized Zimmer’s engagement with bacteria, the model organisms that she would study for the rest of her scientific career. Back at Palo Alto, during the fall of 1945, she prepared the mutant bacterial strains of E. coli K-12 that Joshua Lederberg would use for his breakthrough experiments in bacterial conjugation.

Abstract:
Next to where I type, I have tacked up the syllabi for two American literature courses taught in the 1980s at well-known, indeed prestigious, institutions in the United States—one in California, the other in Ohio. Both are survey courses, one called “The American Literary Imagination,” the other “Life and Thought in American Literature.” One covers, in a single semester, thirty-two writers, including Philip Freneau, William Cullen Bryant, Washington Irving, John Greenleaf Whittier, John Crowe Ransom, and Ezra Pound; all are white and male, except for one assignment on Emily Dickinson and one poem by Marianne Moore. The other, a two-term course, includes twenty-three white male writers and Emily Dickinson. I do not want to argue that today such courses have no right to exist, for that kind of statement would engage the significant issue of academic freedom. But such courses are simply not truthful, nor professionally current. The pictures they present to students of the American literary imagination or of American life and thought are woefully incomplete and inaccurate. In the profession of literary study they represent what, in Psychology, was represented by generalizations about moral development based on interviews with a sample of white, male, college sophomores and juniors; or in History, was represented by conclusions about the “expansion” of opportunity under Jacksonian democracy when, in fact, white women's opportunities and those of black people were largely contracting. Were such courses titled “American Literature from the Perspective of ‘'Diner’” (a film set in 1958), they might have accurately represented themselves. But now, over a quarter of a century later, a large new body of scholarship has transformed the intellectual base of our profession. To be responsive to this scholarship and to present an accurate picture of the development of the literary cultures of the United States, teaching has begun to change. A number of recent volumes record such change and offer means for encouraging its systematic development. The changes in our profession I am describing are rooted in the movements for racial justice and sex equity.
