Looking On and Overlooking: An Analysis of Oversight in Online Tutoring

As a writing center director, I am charged with overseeing my staff of undergraduate tutors, as well as making sure the center functions in accordance with its budget and mission. All of my duties–training tutors, scheduling, working with faculty, performing public relations, guiding tutors’ ongoing professional development–can be viewed as forms of oversight. I find the term “oversight” to be a very apt lens for considering the work of a writing center director because of its dual meaning: it can mean “looking over,” “supervising”–or it can suggest the opposite, as in “overlooking” or “forgetfulness, missing.”University Writing Cente

A universal solution

The phenomenon of an implicit function which solves a large set of second order partial differential equations obtainable from a variational principle is explicated by the introduction of a class of universal solutions to the equations derivable from an arbitrary Lagrangian which is homogeneous of weight one in the field derivatives. This result is extended to many fields. The imposition of Lorentz invariance makes such Lagrangians unique, and equivalent to the Companion Lagrangians introduced in [baker].Comment: arxiv version is already officia

Feasibility study in the application of optical signal analysis to non-destructive testing of complex structures

Advantages of the large time bandwidth product of optical processing are presented. Experiments were performed to study the feasibility of the use of optical spectral analysis for detection of flaws in structural elements excited by random noise. Photographic and electronic methods of comparison of complex spectra were developed. Limitations were explored, and suggestions for further work are offered
