Examining Pre-Service Teacher Candidates’ Sources and Levels of Knowledge about Autism Spectrum Disorders
This study was designed to identify what pre-service teacher candidates knew about autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and how they had acquired that knowledge in order to design more effective preparation courses. Teacher candidates (N=87) from three teacher preparation programs completed questionnaires during, or prior to, their first special education course. The findings indicate a relationship between sources of knowledge about ASD and actual levels of knowledge. Based on the findings, the authors argue that there is a need for coursework that focuses on effective intervention strategies and utilizes direct opportunities for teacher candidates to work with students with ASD
Correlations in hypernuclear matter
We investigate short range correlations in nuclear and hypernuclear matter.
Self-energies due to short range correlations and their influence on the
nucleon and -hyperon spectral functions are described in an approach
accounting for a realistic treatment of mean-field dynamics and a
self-consistently derived quasi-particle interaction. Landau-Migdal theory is
used to derived the short range interaction from a phenomenological Skyrme
energy density functional, subtracting the long range pionic contributions to
the nucleonic spectral functions. We discuss our results for different
hyperon-baryon ratios to show the influence of strangeness on the correlations
in hypernuclear matter.Comment: 7 pages, 5 figures, proceedings for HYP06 in Main
Laser pulse analysis
Methods are presented for locating threshold points by using laser pulse analysis. It was found that there are errors involved in the determination of each of these quantities, and an attempt was made to separate their effects on the overall range correction. Several series of corrected range measurements for fixed reflectors and satellites were obtained. Residuals were computed by fitting the range measurements to either fixed-reflector distances or short arcs of satellite orbits. Root mean square values of these residuals are presented
