Résumé :
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 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.

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

Résumé :
This exploratory study examines the relationship between preservice teachers’ performance on a teaching performance assessment for licensure in elementary mathematics and a measure of knowledge that, in studies of practicing teachers, was found to predict effective mathematics teaching. A sample of 89 preservice teachers completed the Performance Assessment for California Teachers (PACT) and the classroom video analysis (CVA) instrument. Correlation analyses found overall weak associations between measures for the whole group. For groups of high, medium, and low performers on PACT, average sco

This study investigates the andragogical and pedagogical teaching philosophies of online instructors at the California State University, Long Beach in the Spring Semester of 2010. Drawing from reflective adult education theory, this article proposes a new model for this reflective adult education theory. It is either the helping relationship (andragogical philosophy) or the directing relationship (pedagogical philosophy) plus the learning environment (the Internet) that leads to adult learners’ critical reflection in Mezirow’s (1991) terms.

Résumé :
Classroom observations remain the predominant data source used in teacher evaluations, but little is known about how rater characteristics may affect teachers’ scores. For special educators, whose instructional practice requires specialized knowledge and skills, school administrators (i.e., the raters) without experience in special education teaching may not be able to provide reliable and unbiased scores. This study included three school administrators who viewed and scored the classroom teaching of 19 special educators in California and Idaho; individuals with special education teaching expe

The objective was to analyze the teaching-learning strategies and the methods of evaluation of learning that are used by university teachers who train educational agents. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 24 teachers (19 from the UCM and 5 from the UABC). The findings related to the dimension of teaching strategies are reported: three subdimensions, eight categories and six sub-categories of analysis were identified. The implementati

Résumé :
Background: As online learning develops an increasingly important role in medical education, new online teaching modalities are arising all the time. One such teaching modality that is gaining popularity among medical students is the “inked” video, a type of animated video that utilizes a virtual blackboard. Student reviews suggest that the dynamic style of the inked video allows it to teach more efficiently than traditional teaching modalities, but currently there is no quantitative evidence to support or guide the use of this teaching modality.

Although national standards for information literacy have been developed and approved by the Association of College and Research Libraries, little is known about the extent to which undergraduates meet these or earlier sets of standards. Since 1994, the Teaching Library at the University of California-Berkeley has conducted an ongoing Survey of Information Literacy Competencies in selected academic departments to measure the “lower-order” information literacy skills of graduating seniors.

Abstract Gulf surges are transient disturbances that propagate along the Gulf of California (GoC) from south to north, transporting cool moist air toward the deserts of northwest Mexico and the southwest United States during the North American monsoon. They have been shown to modulate precipitation and have been linked to severe weather and flooding in northern Mexico and the southwest United States. The general features and progression of surge events are well documented but their detailed dynamical evolution is still unclear. In this study, a convection-permitting simulation is performed ove

During John Wooden’s final coaching season, two psychologists systematically recorded his specific teaching acts during UCLA basketball practices. Results were presented in a 1976 Psychology Today article, which garnered little media or public attention. At the time, Coach Wooden never responded to three requests for comments—twice to prepublication manuscripts and once to the published version. This memoir recounts the backstory of the study and reports some unanticipated and surprising consequences 25 years later.

Using the literature on external support, instructional capacity, and policy strength, the study gathered data from interviews, observations, document review, and surveys.
