Evaluating Digital Learning for Adult Basic Literacy and Numeracy
Through this research, we set out to understand how ABE programs might use these technologies to improve the instruction they offer, whether such technologies are effective with low-skilled adults and…

Update on Electrocaloric Cooling Theory and Experiment
This talk will cover an analysis of electrical energy recovery requirements and impact on various electrocaloric cooling cycles.

Expanding STEM opportunities through inclusive STEM‐focused high schools
This study examines the central assumption behind these schools—that they provide students from subgroups underrepresented in STEM with experiences that equip them academically and attitudinally to enter and stay in…

Trace Amine-Associated Receptor 1 Regulates Wakefulness and EEG Spectral Composition
We used Taar1 knockout and overexpressing mice and TAAR1 agonists to elucidate the role of TAAR1 in sleep/wake. EEG, EMG, body temperature, and locomotor activity were recorded in Taar1 KO,…

Trace Amine-Associated Receptor 1 Agonists as Narcolepsy Therapeutics
As partial agonists at trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1) promote wakefulness in mice and rats, we evaluated whether TAAR1 agonism had beneficial effects in two mouse models of narcolepsy.

Challenges in the Development of Therapeutics for Narcolepsy
Development of therapeutics for narcolepsy has been challenged by historical misunderstanding of the disease, its many disparate symptoms and, until recently, its unknown etiology.

Hybrid Convolutional Neural Networks for Articulatory and Acoustic Information Based Speech Recognition
This work explores using deep neural networks (DNNs) and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for mapping speech data into its corresponding articulatory space. Our speech-inversion results indicate that the CNN models…

High-Resolution Health Monitoring of Track and Rail Systems with Fiber Optic Sensors and High-Frequency Multiplexed Readouts
In this study, we explore the use of Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs) and a high resolution, low-cost optical readout developed at PARC to interrogate the acoustic emissions generated by a…

Review of Research on Clinical Practice in Teacher Preparation: What Do We Know and How Can We Advance Knowledge?
We share what research points to in terms of high-quality clinical preparation and recommend a more productive path for future teacher preparation research.

Developing protocols to support collaborative teacher reflection and professional learning for science argument writing
This white paper describes the development of a suite of teacher reflection protocols that structure generative conversations among teachers about instruction in support of students’ written scientific arguments.
-
Semantic Instrumentation of Virtual Environments for Training
We discuss an approach in which the virtual environment is semantically instrumented in order to allow for the tracking of and reasoning about open-ended learner activity therein.

Examining Teacher Preparation Program Feedback from CSU Systemwide Survey Data: Using the CTQ Completer Survey to Support Data-Driven Continuous Improvement
This report provides background on the Center for Teaching Quality (CTQ) Completer Survey, describing how California State University (CSU) grantees of the New Generation of Educators (NGEI) initiative can use…
