Abstract:
The purpose of this study was not to disprove the effects of the current, common remedial literacy course design and the literacy practices within that help adolescent RLLs pass statewide assessment tests, but to describe the potential long-term impact of an innovative comprehensive approach to literacy (CAL) framed through an integrated course design model. In this study I sought to determine if the 2012 CAL design with a particular demographic of student produced "significant" or lasting learning as defined by Fink (2003). In other words, did the 2012 CAL design promote sustained or increas

The last decade has seen great advances in Next-Generation Sequencing technologies, and, as a result, there has been a rise in the number of genomes sequenced each year. In 2017, there were as many as 10,000 new organisms sequenced and added into the RefSeq Database. Taxonomy prediction is a science involving the hierarchical classification of DNA fragments up to the rank species. In this research, we introduce Predicting Linked Organisms, Plinko, for short.

Abstract:
Virus taxonomy is the task of partitioning the world of viruses into a coherent scheme of easily recognisable entities, with the major purpose of answering the everyday needs of practising virologists. Traditional approaches involve a lengthy process, done case by case through proposals by experienced virologists. With rapid advances in sequencing technology generating large numbers of virus genome se- quences at an ever increasing rate, genome sequences are often the only information available for a virus in many situations.

Abstract:
In this dissertation, I report on the design, implementation, and evaluation of my intervention for the revision of physics in a mainstream public secondary school in Singapore. This intervention was conducted over a one-year period, and involved students who were taking their GCE 'O' level physics examination after immersion in the intervention, which was conducted as part of their regular physics revision curriculum. Based on sociocultural theory, the intervention changed the practice of how physics revision was conducted in a particular secondary physics classroom. The intervention consiste

Abstract:
With the increase in the use of online professional development resources, especially for rural educators, this study evaluated the effects of online training modules on in-service teachers' ability to collect and use instructional progress monitoring data to make instructional decisions for students with significant disability (i.e., moderate to severe intellectual disability, autism). In this randomized control study, 29 teachers across three states participated in online data collection or data collection plus data-based decision making training. In addition, the generalization of teachers'

Abstract:
<p>Question answering systems can be seen as the next step in information retrieval, allowing users to pose questions in natural language and receive succinct answers. In order for a question answering system as a whole to be successful, research has shown that the correct classification of questions with regards to the expected answer type is imperative. Question classification has two components: a taxonomy of answer types, and a machinery for making the classifications.</p><p>This thesis focuses on five different machine learning algorithms for the question classification task.
