An evaluation study of an alternative middle school at-risk program
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
of the test scores of the students in this program on the state assessment for one year in communication arts and mathematics. Additionally, the student's growth on the state assessment was compared to the growth of a similar group of students who qualified...
Number Theoretic Designs for Directed Regular Graphs of Small Diameter
(Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, 2004)
In 1989, F. R. K. Chung gave a construction for certain directed h-regular graphs of small diameter. Her construction is based on finite fields, and the upper bound on the diameter
of these graphs is derived from bounds ...
Dynamic Geometry: GeoGebra
(2008-02)
This presentation discusses the benefits of using GeoGebra, a freely available “dynamic mathematics software” for learning and teaching in schools. It enables teachers to create accurate diagrams and illustrations, create interactive demonstrations...
Lyapunov theorems for Banach spaces
(2011)
We present a spectral mapping theorem for semigroups on any Banach space E. From this, we obtain a characterization of exponential dichotomy for nonautonomous differential equations for E-valued functions. This characterization ...
Nonaliquots and Robbins Numbers
(Polish Academy of Sciences, Institute of Mathematics, 2005)
Let '(•) and _(•) denote the Euler function and the sum of divisors function, respectively. In this paper, we give a lower bound for the number of m ≤ x for which the equation m = _(n)−n has no solution. We also show that ...
On the Value Set of n! Modulo a Prime
(2005)
We show that for infinitely many prime numbers p there are at least log log p/ log log log p distinct residue classes modulo p that are not congruent to n! for any integer n.
A Variant of NTRU with Non-Invertible Polynomials
(2002)
We introduce a generalization of the NTRU cryptosystem and describe its advantages and disadvantages as compared with the original NTRU protocol. This extension helps to avoid the potential problem of finding “enough” ...
How teachers design curriculum units: a case study of algebra teachers' instructional decision-making processes and products
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
This study examined how algebra teachers plan curriculum units when they actively design their curriculum. I used a case study (Yin, 2013) of five experienced high school mathematics teachers who came from school districts of varying sizes across...
A comparison from 2008-2015 between Missouri public school student computer-based and paper-and-pencil based high stakes assessments by race and socio-economic status
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)
and reduced lunch status. The measurements in this study included 8th grade Missouri Assessment Program mathematics exam results data, Algebra I Missouri End-of-Course Exam results data, and the math portion of the ACT results data. The research design used a...
Quantitative analysis of impact of response to intervention on 2019 sixth-grade rural public middle school Missouri assessment program performance by free and reduced-price lunch eligibility
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
This study focused on the impact of response to intervention on 2019 sixth-grade rural public middle school Missouri Assessment Program performance by free and reduced-price lunch eligibility. Response to intervention was used to decrease learning...
Spectrum, volume 26, number 07
(University of Missouri, Office of Strategic Communications, 1999)
Announcement of the College of Agriculture of the University of Missouri, 1949-50
(University of Missouri, College of Agriculture, 1949)
The University of Missouri College of Agriculture offers courses of study in all phases of agriculture, home economics, forestry, and veterinary science usually practiced in this area. The degrees Bachelor of Science in ...
Analyzing the correlation between data usage and student performance on the Missouri Assessment Program
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
and mathematics. As school districts collect more data to meet the NCLB law, they have become valuable players in efforts to use data to drive instructional decisions. The purpose of the study is to examine the level of data usage (high and low) of the public...
Mizzou weekly, volume 19, number 22
(University of Missouri--Columbia. University Affairs. Publications and Alumni Communication., 1998)
The Future of STEM Curriculum and Instructional Design: A Research and Development Agenda for Learning Designers
(2010)
In 2009-10 a series of Workshops was organized to focus on STEM learning design for young students and adolescents. The objective was to provide visionary leadership to the education community by: (a) identifying and ...
Examining an algebra virtual-representational-abstract integrated intervention for students with learning disabilities
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
All students, including students with learning disabilities, deserve a mathematics education that successfully prepares them for their future endeavors. This preparation includes effective instruction in algebra, which is known as the gatekeeper...
Quality and quantity : gender representation in teacher discourse and kindergarten math curriculum
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
We know that women are underrepresented in math-intensive fields despite marginal gender differences in mathematical performance. Some researchers believe that societal factors contribute to this problem and have called for more nuanced...
An identification scheme based on sparse polynomials
(2000)
This paper gives a new example of exploiting the idea of using polynomials with restricted coefficients over finite fields and rings to construct reliable cryptosystems and identification schemes.
Relations between videogame play and 8th-graders' mathematics achievement
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Research on videogames has examined relationships between the amount of time children spend playing videogames and academic outcomes. This study ...
