Bayesian sample size determination in two-sample Poisson models
(MedCrave, 2015)Sample size determination is a vital part of clinical studies where cost and safety concerns lead to greater importance of not using more subjects and resources than are required. The Bayesian approach to sample size ... -
Using literature to engage students mathematically
(Ohio Council of Teachers of Mathematics, 2016)In this article, the authors share two lessons that incorporate children’s literature with the Pythagorean theorem and area to engage preservice teachers (PSTs) mathematically. Sample responses, example texts, and future ... -
A phase 3, long-term, open-label safety study of Galcanezumab in patients with migraine
(BMC, 2018)Background: Galcanezumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody that selectively binds to the calcitonin gene-related peptide, has demonstrated in previous Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical studies (≤6-month of treatment) a reduction ... -
Comparison between prefilled syringe and autoinjector devices on patient-reported experiences and pharmacokinetics in Galcanezumab studies
(Dove Press, 2018)Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the usability and patient-rated experiences of an autoinjector with a prefilled syringe in patients with migraine, who self-administered galcanezumab, and to compare pharmacokinetic ... -
Examining preservice teachers' opinions about using A Different Pond to teach math
(Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators in Texas, 2019)Engaging activities that include high level problem-solving should be an integral part of math lessons (NCTM, 2000). To pique students’ interests in mathematical tasks, teachers may also introduce the idea of popular ... -
Using educational technology applications to enhance collegiate mathematics education
(AMTE, 2020)Classrooms in the United States today look very different than they did 10 or 20 years ago. Mobile technology has a pervasiveand too often disruptive presence in today’s learning environments, but it does not necessarily ... -
Examing type and quality of preservice teachers’ lessons based on children’s literature
(International Journal on Teaching and Learning Mathematics, 2020)This qualitiative research explores the types and levels of mathematical lesson tasks that 60 future elementary and middle school teachers created during an undergraduate mathematics content and pedagogy course. Data ... -
Recording and/or writing? Weighing the benefits of reflective practices
(Magna Publications, 2020)Let’s come right out with it: Reflecting about learning is a commendable practice that should be embedded into any learning experience! For both teachers and students, reflecting is an important practice to make sense of ... -
Underreporting in mixed treatment comparisons meta-analysis for Poisson data
(Pushpa Publishing, 2021)Mixed treatment comparisons meta-analysis has become a popular methodology because of its ability to use separate trials to make comparisons about parameters, even when the parameters have not been directly compared. We ... -
Bayesian estimation of in-game home team win probability for National Basketball Association games
(Cornell Tech, 2022)Maddox, et al. (2022) establish a new win probability estimation for college basketball and compared the results with previous methods of Stern (1994), Desphande and Jensen (2016) and Benz (2019). This paper proposes ... -
Examining the use of mathematics-themed children's books to help pre-service teachers write tasks
(University of Northern Colorado, 2022)In this qualitative study, the researchers investigated the types of K-6th grade lessons 16 preservice elementary teachers created based on mathematics-themed children’s books. Lessons were analyzed using Stein et al.’s ... -
Personalizing the Hispanic student experience through data disaggregation: Implications for fall semester preregistration and long-term success
(The EvoLLLution, 2022)Leveraging meaningful data can help inform conscious strategies to support the success of learners from underserved demographics, which is critical to meeting the mission of modern institutions.
