Intrusive Teaching: The Strain of Care Labor, Identity and the Emerging Majority in Higher Education
United States publicly-funded higher education systems are experiencing increasing pressures. In response, higher education institutions have broadened their appeal to students less likely to attend college as part of their fiscal strategies. This growing student population consists of first-generation students and individuals from marginalized backgrounds who often enter college underprepared, and higher education must retain these emerging-majority students to ensure fiscal stability. When enrollment and retention are viewed from a business model, faculty duties expand into triage care and student emotional support. This qualitative investigation of faculty in a publicly-funded state university explores intrusive teaching practices marked by monitoring and intervening in their students’ emotional and social issues
Point-Form Analysis of Elastic Deuteron Form Factors
Point-form relativistic quantum mechanics is applied to elastic
electron-deuteron scattering. The deuteron is modeled using relativistic
interactions that are scattering-equivalent to the nonrelativistic Argonne
and Reid '93 interactions. A point-form spectator approximation (PFSA)
is introduced to define a conserved covariant current in terms of
single-nucleon form factors. The PFSA is shown to provide an accurate
description of data up to momentum transfers of 0.5 , but falls
below the data at higher momentum transfers. Results are sensitive to the
nucleon form factor parameterization chosen, particularly to the neutron
electric form factor.Comment: RevTex, 31 pages, 1 table, 13 figure
