Critical Consciousness and Educational Leadership: Educators of Color (EOC): What Do They Think Districts Should Do to Retain Them?Daly, Ceronne B. January 2022 (has links)
Thesis advisor: Rebecca Lowenhaupt / School districts throughout the Commonwealth have engaged in initiatives to increase educators of color. Ingersoll et al. (2019) argue that while “many believe that the small number of minority teachers is caused by a lack of recruitment or intake” they concur with Pearson and Fuglei (2019) that recruitment is not the only problem. The issue is retention. Recent studies like these shed new light on the need for additional research on factors that increase the retention of educators of color. I posit that supporting the development of critical consciousness in Educators of Color can also support their retention in school districts. The purpose of this individual study is to identify the practices that Educators of Color (EOCs) report to be supportive, increase their critical consciousness, and/ or impact their retention in the district. This study centers the experiences of Educators of Color (EOCs), and amplify their voices in order to learn about the impact of school-based and district-sponsored practices. This individual study is part of a group qualitative case study that examines the practices of district leaders, school leaders, educators, and students to foster and advance the development of critical consciousness. / Thesis (EdD) — Boston College, 2022. / Submitted to: Boston College.

An Investigation of Color Memory as a Function of Hue, Saturation, Lightness and Observer Imagery Vividness for Blue, Green and Orange Test HuesLaws, Eric L. 14 March 2000 (has links)
Fifty-two college-aged observers participated in an experiment assessing color memory via a PowerPoint '97 computer display program which varied one of the three dimensions of hue, saturation and lightness at a time. Consistent with previous research, errors were greater for the lightness conditions followed by saturation, and least for hue conditions Additionally, a signal detection analysis indicated that d-prime was greatest for the hue conditions, less for saturation and lowest for lightness conditions. There were also significant but unpredicted differences in response criterion which may reflect task difficulty. Scores on the Vividness of Visual Imagery Questionnaire (Marks, 1973) were, in general, not correlated with performance on these color memory tasks, inconsistent with previous research. The role of complexity of neuronal circuitry, the significance for opponent-process, trichromatic and retinex color vision theories and the relationship to Sokolov's model of color memory were discussed. Also, it was concluded that investigators of color memory using a computer display are well-advised to calibrate the monitor with a colorimeter because the internal computer units may be unreliable indexes of changes in hue, saturation and lightness. / Ph.

Comparing LED Lighting Systems in the Detection and Color Recognition of Roadway ObjectsTerry, Travis N. 25 July 2011 (has links)
This study compared two LED luminaires and their abilities to provide detection distance and color recognition distance of potential roadway hazard. Detection distance is regarded as a metric of visibility. Color recognition distance is a metric for comparing the impact of the (Correlated Color Temperature) CCT of each luminaire and their color contrast impact. Mesopic vision, the mode of vision most commonly used for night driving, was considered in this study. Off-axis objects were presented to participants to assess the peripheral abilities of the luminaires. The impacts of luminance and color contrast were addressed in this study. The experiment was performed on the Virginia Smart Road where standard objects of different colors and pedestrians wearing different colors were detected by drivers of a moving vehicle in a controlled environment. The key difference between the two luminaires was their color temperatures (3500K versus 6000K). The results indicated that neither light source provided a significant benefit over the other although significant interactions were found among object color, age, and lighting level. The results indicate that the luminaires provide similar luminance contrast but their color contrasts depend heavily on the color temperature, the object, and the observer. This study followed the protocol developed by the Mesopic Optimisation of Visual Efficiency (MOVE) consortium developed by the CIE for modeling mesopic visual behavior. / Master of Science

Using an FPGA-Based Processing Platform in an Industrial Machine Vision SystemKing, William E. 28 April 1999 (has links)
This thesis describes the development of a commercial machine vision system as a case study for utilizing the Modular Reprogrammable Real-time Processing Hardware (MORRPH) board. The commercial system described in this thesis is based on a prototype system that was developed as a test-bed for developing the necessary concepts and algorithms. The prototype system utilized color linescan cameras, custom framegrabbers, and standard PCs to color-sort red oak parts (staves). When a furniture manufacturer is building a panel, very often they come from edge-glued paneled parts. These are panels formed by gluing several smaller staves together along their edges to form a larger panel. The value of the panel is very much dependent upon the "match" of the individual staves—i.e. how well they create the illusion that the panel came from a single board as opposed to several staves.
The prototype system was able to accurately classify staves based on color into classes defined through a training process. Based on Trichromatic Color Theory, the system developed a probability density function in 3-D color space for each class based on the parts assigned to that class during training. While sorting, the probability density function was generated for each scanned piece, and compared with each of the class probability density functions. The piece was labeled the name of the class whose probability density function it most closely matched. A "best-face" algorithm was also developed to arbitrate between pieces whose top and bottom faces did not fall into the same classes. [1] describes the prototype system in much greater detail.
In developing a commercial-quality machine vision system based on the prototype, the primary goal was to improve throughput. A Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)-based Custom Computing Machine (FCCM) called the MORRPH was selected to assume most of the computational burden, and increase throughput in the commercial system. The MORRPH was implemented as an ISA-bus interface card, with a 3 x 2 array of Processing Elements (PE). Each PE consists of an open socket which can be populated with a Xilinx 4000 series FPGA, and an open support socket which can be populated with support chips such as external RAM, math processors, etc.
In implementing the prototype algorithms for the commercial system, a partition was created between those algorithms that would be implemented on the MORRPH board, and those that would be left as implemented on the host PC. It was decided to implement such algorithms as Field-Of-View operators, Shade Correction, Background Extraction, Gray-Scale Channel Generation, and Histogram Generation on the MORRPH board, and to leave the remainder of the classification algorithms on the host.
By utilizing the MORRPH board, an industrial machine vision system was developed that has exceeded customer expectations for both accuracy and throughput. Additionally, the color-sorter received the International Woodworking Fair's Challengers Award for outstanding innovation. / Master of Science

Color Illusions on Liquid Crystal Displays and Design Guidelines for Information VisualizationYoo, Hyun Seung 03 January 2008 (has links)
The influence of color on size and depth perception has been explored for a century, but there is very limited research on interventions that can reduce the color illusions. This study was motivated to identify interventions and propose design guidelines for information visualization, especially where size judgment is critical.
This study replicated the color size illusion and color depth illusion on an LCD monitor and it was found that yellow is the smallest and farthest color among red, yellow, green, and blue on a white background. Three types of interventions (background brightness, border color, and background grid brightness) were tested to identify the conditions that reduce the color illusions, but all of them were not statistically significant.
Based on the experiment results and literature survey, design guidelines were proposed. To extend the guidelines to the bioinformatics field, design recommendations were proposed and implementation examples were illustrated. Evaluations on design implementations were evaluated by interviewing domain experts.
Additionally, the relationship between the color size illusion and the color depth illusion was explored. / Master of Science

Una revisión crítica de las teorías lingüísticas sobre la categorización de los sistemas de coloresPoirier Maruenda, Zoe 02 March 2021 (has links)
Este trabajo es una revisión crítica de 3 teorías lingüísticas sobre la
categorización de los sistemas de colores en las lenguas del mundo. Los
estudios examinados en este trabajo tratan de resolver la duda sobre por qué
los hablantes de una lengua determinada segmentan el espectro visual con
diferentes términos cromáticos. En primer lugar, se revisa el estudio de Berlin &
Kay, Basic Color Terms (1969), donde se propone una serie de universales
semánticos, además de añadir ciertas categorías para identificar los términos
que expresan colores y un modelo evolutivo que corresponde a la cantidad de
términos que tiene la lengua estudiada. En segundo lugar, se revisan las ideas
principales de la teoría neurofisiológica (Kay & McDaniel 1978) y, por último, se
examinan las ideas de Anna Wierzbicka (2005), quien propone una nueva
forma para hablar sobre colores dentro del marco de la teoría de Metalenguaje
Semántico Natural propuesta por ella (Wierzbicka 1972; Goddard 2006).
