Abstract:
Sarah Frances Whiting developed innovative and influential laboratory work in her introductory astronomy classes at Wellesley College in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Whiting was strongly influenced by Edward Pickering and the early physics laboratory education at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. This article explores the early development of laboratory work in astronomy education at Wellesley and Whiting's underlying philosophy of education. By laboratory work, Whiting meant day-time work, including work with astronomical photographs and spectroscopy. Her pedagogy was encapsulated

Abstract:
Pickering (2008) observed that administration is a major determinant of a teacher’s perception of stress in the school. Besides, work overload is one of the factors causing burnout among teachers that causes reduced physical and emotional energy (Malik, 2019). The study sought to assess the extent to which administrative support and workload contribute to tutor burnout. The study employed descriptive survey design. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data from thirty-five tutors who were purposively sampled for the study. Concerning administrative support, the Principal often explai

Abstract:
Background:There is an ongoing effort to elucidate the molecular pathways that are key to kidney injury in lupus nephritis (LN). One approach is to study the transcriptome utilising kidney tissue obtained during diagnostic renal biopsy [1]. In clinical practice the most common tissue that is surplus to diagnostic requirements is formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue. However, due to RNA degradation, transcriptomic analysis has been sub-optimal and challenging using standard procedures. The NanoString technology platform has the advantage that reliable detection of transcripts can be a

Abstract:
This chapter chronicles the early years of Aden Baker Meinel and Marjorie Steele Pettit Meinel, growing up during the Depression in the academic hotspot of Pasadena and influenced by internationally renowned scientists and Nobel Prize winners at Mt. Wilson Observatory and Caltech. Marjorie learned astronomy from her father, Edison Pettit, using their home refractor. Aden’s interest in aeronautics began at Pasadena Junior College and continued at Caltech under Robert Millikan and William Pickering. Aden met Marjorie in classes at Pasadena Junior College.

The conclusion examines how the war created tensions within the Densmore family, and how the family strove to overcome these tensions and maintain its unity and integrity. The way the war challenged and changed the family’s racial beliefs and abolitionist ideology is examined. The conclusion highlights how the Dakota War set preconditions for the larger Civil War conflict. The sons’ service in the USCT, and the time spent at Forts Pillow and Pickering are also examined. Most important of all, the conclusion discusses the way Mary McElroy’s presence in the family home challenged the family’s ra
