School advisor's beliefs about their roles and practices within a cohort groupingDelvecchio, Jennifer Ann 05 1900 (has links)
This study focuses on the nature of the school advisor's roles within a
collaborative educational setting, specifically, a partnership involving a school district,
university and teachers association referred to as the Richmond Teacher Education
Project. The study investigates how school advisors view their roles and responsibilities
within a cohort group. School advisors describe their experiences according to role,
motivations, preparation and training, improvements to the program and
professional/ethical considerations.
Findings from the study indicate that the role development of school advisors is
dependent on the amount of time spent as a member of the Richmond Practicum Project
and on the relationship-building process between the student teachers and other members
of the cohort grouping. All subjects mention some difficulty in their role as the primary
evaluator and believed that the faculty advisor should share this role. / Education, Faculty of / Curriculum and Pedagogy (EDCP), Department of / Graduate

An incident at sea: The historic combat between U.S. Navy Blimp K-74 and U-Boat 134Atwood, Anthony 23 July 2003 (has links)
This thesis studies the historic encounter between United States Navy airship K-74 and Nazi submarine U-134 in World War II. The Battle of the Atlantic is examined through case study of this one U-boat and its voyage. In all things except her fight with the American blimp, the patrol was perfectly typical. Looked at from start to finish, both her reports and the reports of the Allies encountered, many realities of the war can be studied. U-134 sailed to attack shipping between Florida and Cuba. She was challenged by the attack of United States Navy airship K-74 over the Florida Straits. It is the only documented instance of battle between two such combatants in history. That merits attention. Thesis finding disprove historian William Eliot Morison’s contention that the K-74 airship bombs were not dropped and did not damage the U-boat. Study of this U-boat and its antagonist broadens our understanding of the Battle of the Atlantic. It is a contribution to our knowledge of military, naval, aviation, and local history.

Cultivating a Democratic community in the Elementary Art ClassroomFergus, Kelly 01 January 2019 (has links)
Cultivating a more socially just, democratic classroom community is a best pedagogical practices qualitative case study. This study is designed to explore how three Virginia elementary art teachers define and create a democratic classroom community, inside their art rooms, through the implementation of various instructional strategies within the physical, social-cultural, and pedagogical spaces of their classrooms. Such instructional strategies may include a shift in power dynamics, student-centered art, choice-based art, and a big idea/real-world issue-orientated curriculum (ex: visual culture, social justice, democratic pedagogies). Each of the three selected participants were interviewed and asked to describe their classroom practices as well as provide examples of ways they perform any or all of the various instructional strategies mentioned. The data in this research study was collected through a digital survey, interviews, raw field notes, audio recordings, and visual journal entries. The responses to the interview questions were then coded and analyzed to compare and contrast understandings of the participants’ pedagogical practices. This study concludes that the perceptions of these progressive instructional strategies varied among each participant, however, they ultimately all fall on the spectrum of a democratic classroom community.

Richmond Matteson: Euphonium Innovator, Teacher and Performer, With Three Recitals of Selected Works by Frescobaldi, Bach, Saint-Saëns, Hutchinson, White, and Others.Dickman, Marc 08 1900 (has links)
An examination is conducted of the life, career and musical styles of Richmond Matteson, an influential jazz euphonium and tuba performer of the twentieth century. The study includes a brief history of the euphonium's role in concert bands. A description of Matteson's background as a musician and clinician including education, influences and career changes will also be discussed. Analysis of Matteson's improvisational style and a transcription from the recording Dan's Blues is included. A formal analysis of Claude T. Smith's Variations for Baritone is provided, as well as a brief biography of the composer. Matteson's stylistic traits which Smith employed for the composition of Variations for Baritone are illustrated. The conclusion calls for further study of jazz styles by euphoniumists with more frequent performances of Variations for Baritone. Appendices include lists of Matteson's compositions and arrangements, a selected discography and a list of clinics and performances from 1982-1992.

A case study of the role of six Catholic social agencies as mediating structures in social welfare service provision in VirginiaChew, Tracy 23 June 2009 (has links)
This study explores the role of religious service organizations in social welfare provision by examining the activities of six social service/action agencies of the Diocese of Richmond, Virginia.
It compares Diocesan agency operations with a profile drawn from existing knowledge of secular nonprofits and finds similarities. In particular, these religious service providers evidence degrees of marketization and dependence upon public and private funds. An empirical portrait of the purposes, organization, funding, programs and scope of delivery, target populations, advocacy role, and influence of the bishop reveals that these agencies provide many different services to a limited number of recipients. Agency leaders argued strongly that their organizations are already functioning at their maximum capacity. Agency directors interviewed believe that their organizations cannot significantly increase their current service capacity and analysis of their funding bases supports their claims.
The study concludes with an analysis of the mediating role of these agencies in Virginia’s social welfare system. Two mediation theories, by Tocqueville (1840) and Berger and Neuhaus (1977) are tested. The Diocesan agencies are found to vary individually as mediating structures suggesting that religious organizations play diverse roles in social welfare provision in Virginia. / Master of Urban and Regional Planning

Användning av sedationsskalan Richmond Sedation-Agitation Scale inom intensivvård : Samband mellan sedationsnivå och sedationsmål samt skillnad mellan könBredberg, Petter, Nygren, Elsa January 2023 (has links)
Bakgrund: Att bedöma och upprätthålla adekvat sedationsnivå till patienter är en av intensivvårdssjuksköterskans viktigaste arbetsuppgifter. Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale (RASS) används för att bedöma patienternas sedationsnivå. Djup sedering innebär ökade risker för patienten och därför är nuvarande rekommendationer att sedera patienterna ytligt. Motiv: Trots nuvarande rekommendationer är det vanligt att patienterna har en för djup sedationsnivå. Det är därför viktigt att analysera om sedationsmål uppfylls genom att studera sederingsnivåer samt undersöka om det finns könsskillnader avseende sederingsnivåer. Syfte: Syftet var att studera om patienter som är djupt sederade i högre utsträckning uppfyller sederingsmål, samt att studera om det finns skillnad mellan könen i uppfyllt sederingmål och bedömd sederingsnivå. Metod: Studien genomfördes med kvantitativ design genom en retrospektiv journalgranskning. Materialet inhämtades från en intensivvårdsavdelning med ett konsekutivt urval under perioden 2016-2022. 22 400 bedömningstillfällen enligt RASS analyserades. RASS delades in i 3 kategorier: rastlös, ytlig och djup. Uppfyllt sederingsmål indelades i Ja eller Nej. Resultat: Det fanns ett signifikant samband mellan bedömd sederingsnivå och uppfyllt sederingsmål (phi = 0,459, p = <0,001). En högre andel ytligt sederade patienter (86,1%) når angivet sederingsmål. Det fanns en signifikant skillnad mellan könen avseende sederingsnivå (phi = 0,0393, p = <0,001), där män var något djupare sederad än kvinnor. Ingen signifikant skillnad kunde påvisas huruvida sederingsmål uppfylls eller inte beroende på kön (phi = 0,00715, p = 0,285). Konklusion: Resultatet visar att ytligt sederade patienter i större utsträckning når uppsatta sederingsmål. Vidare är män något djupare sederade än kvinnor. Resultatet belyser vikten av att aktivt arbeta med att patienter som är djupt sederade i högre usträckning ska nå avsedda sedationsmål och därmed kan intensivvården förbättras.

The Moral Economy of the Housing Sanitarian Crowd: Crime, Disease, and Urban Renewal in Richmond, Virginia, 1953-1964Hubbard, Justin Wade January 2012 (has links)
The following thesis is concerned with the ways in which perceptions of crime and disease shaped knowledge about urban decline and structured demands for urban renewal projects in Richmond, Virginia between 1953 and 1964. By looking at the city's renters, landlords, public health officials, and local politicians, this thesis contains three arguments: first, advocates diagnosed economic decline through medical and criminal categories; secondly, if urban renewal's existential purpose was to correct the environmental determinants of social pathology, then the contest between renewal advocates and opponents defined an economically-delimited solution; lastly, renewal contained the basis for a strengthened post-war, post-Jim Crow Southern state a state whose most important prerogative was not the maintenance of race relations, but the protection of property and capital. This mode, the capitalist-interventionist mode of state formation is an alternative archetype for historians of the post-war South, implicates capitalist impulses as an accomplice in structuring racial domination, and not simply an extension of Southern barbarity and Jim Crow. The first chapter interrogates the ways in which renewal supporters appropriated knowledge about crime and disease to address urban decline, both its supposed causes and possible solutions. The second chapter focuses on how renewal advocates created competing market evaluations of pathology in Richmond's Seventeenth-Street Bottom, as they cleared the supposed slum to build the new city jail. The conclusion poses suggestions for further historical research on the categories of crime and disease and the relevance of Jim Crow. / History
