A comparison of two computer-assisted remedial reading programs for adolescent unskilled readers : c
This study compared the relative effectiveness of two
computerized remedial reading programs in improving the
reading word recognition, rate, and comprehension of
adolescent readers demonstrating significant and longstanding
reading difficulties. One of the programs
involved was Autoskill Component Reading Subskills Program,
which provides instruction in isolated letters, syllables,
and words, to a point of rapid automatic responding. This
program also incorporates reading disability subtypes in
A case study of a high functioning autistic female in a games setting
This study detennined whether or not a high functioning autistic girl can develop game
structure strategies that may allow her to become an active participant in a game or sport
environment. This qualitative case study involved the in-depth observation and
description of one high functioning autistic student whose experience in a game setting
would be studied. The type of case study carried out was a combination of descriptive
and evaluative. This experience was investigated through structured,
1,1-enediamines and β-substituted enamines in heterocyclic synthesis
The work in this thesis mainly deals with l,l-enediamines and ~ -substituted
enamines (push-pull olefines) and their reactions, leading to the formation of a number of
heterocycles.
Various ~-substituted enamines were prepared by a 'one pot synthesis' in which a
l,l-enediamine presumably acts as an intermediate. These enamines, various substituted
crotonamides and propenamides, were made by using two different orthoesters, various
secondary and primary amines and cyanoacetamide. Their structures
Genetic variation and evolutionary divergence within and among populations, species, and genera of t
Seven crayfish species from three genera of the subfamily Cambarinae
were electrophoretically examined for genetic variation at a total of
twenty-six loci. Polymorphism was detected primarily at three loci:
Ao-2, Lap, and Pgi. The average heterozygosities over-all loci for each
species were found to be very low when compared to most other invertebrate
species that have been examined electrophoretically.
With the exception of Cambarus bartoni, the interpopulation genetic
identities are high withi
Autonomic and electrocortical indices of performance monitoring and source memory discrimination in
Reduced capacity for executive cognitive function and for the autonomic control
of cardiac responsivity are both concomitants of the aging process. These may be linked
through their mutual dependence on medial prefrontal function, but the specifics ofthat
linkage have not been well explored. Executive functions associated with medial
prefrontal cortex involve various aspects ofperformance monitoring, whereas centrally
mediated autonomic functions can be observed as heart rate variability (HRV),
Development of a bacteriophage-based biopesticide for fire blight
Fire blight is an economically important disease of apples and pears that is caused by the
bacterium Erwinia amylovora. Control of the disease depends on limiting primaly blosson1
infection in the spring, and rapidly removing infected tissue. The possibility of using phages to
control E.amylovora populations has been suggested, but previous studies have. failed to show
high treatment efficacies. This work describes the development of a phage-based biopesticide
that controls E. amylovora populati
The osmoadaptive response of the wine yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae K1-V1116 during icewine ferment
The adapted metabolic response of commercial wine yeast under prolonged
exposure to concentrated solutes present in Icewine juice is not fully understood.
Presently, there is no information regarding the transcriptomic changes in gene
expression associated with the adaptive stress response ofwine yeast during Icewine
fermentation compared to table wine fermentation. To understand how and why wine
yeast respond differently at the genomic level and ultimately at the metabolic level during
Icewine

Using stimulus equivalence to teach monetary skills to school-age children with autism
The present study evaluated the use of stimulus equivalence in teaching monetary skills
to school aged children with autism. An AB within-subject design with periodic probes was
used. At pretest, three participants demonstrated relation DA, an auditory-visual relation
(matching dictated coin values to printed coin prices). Using a three-choice match-to-sample
procedure, with a multi-component intervention package, these participants were taught two
trained relations, BA (matching coins to printe

The Rise of Oxygen
This interactive feature story is part of Science Bulletins, an innovative online and exhibition program that offers the public a window into the excitement of scientific discovery. Published in March 2004, this Earth Bulletin examines how scientists are studying oxygen's origins by tracing its footprints in ancient rocks. It includes the following components: Four online essays -- An Ode to O, Earth Without Oxygen, Life Makes a Mark, and Footprints of the Air -- each available in a print-friend

The Properties of Matter - by StudyJams
Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. That is why mass and volume are the properties of matter. There are many different kinds of matter: conductors, insulators, and magnets to name a few. Learn more about the properties of matter with this cartoon animation from StudyJams.
