AUGUSTANA COLLEGE TRIO STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES (SSS) PROJECT

BUILDING COMMUNITY AND LEVERAGING SUMMER RESEARCH TO PREPARE HIGHLY EFFECTIVE MATHEMATICS AND SCIENCE TEACHERS FOR DIVERSE URBAN SCHOOLS -THE PROJECT AIMS TO SERVE THE NATIONAL NEED OF PREPARING HIGH-QUALITY MATHEMATICS AND SCIENCE TEACHERS WHO WILL BE READY TO BE SUCCESSFUL AND RETAINED IN HIGH-NEED SCHOOL DISTRICTS TO ADDRESS CRITICAL SHORTAGE AREAS AND HIGH TEACHER TURNOVER INHIBITING K-12 STEM STUDENT DEVELOPMENT. TO ADDRESS THESE NEEDS THE PROJECT WILL INCREASE ENROLLMENT OF TALENTED STEM UNDERGRADUATE MAJORS PURSUING TEACHING, DEEPEN EXPERIENCE IN DIVERSE URBAN EDUCATION ENVIRONMENTS, FORMALIZE COMMUNITY-BUILDING ACTIVITIES, ADD RELEVANT COMMUNITY SERVICE, ADVANCE A DISTINCTIVE SUMMER RESEARCH MODEL, AND ENHANCE NEW TEACHER SUPPORTS THROUGH TEACHER INDUCTION AND MENTORING. THE ADDED COMMUNITY BUILDING AND COMMUNITY SERVICE WILL INCREASE CULTURALLY SENSITIVE PREPARATION AND RETENTION WHILE SERVING THE NEEDS OF STUDENTS AND SCHOOLS IN THE SURROUNDING REGION AND NATION. EXPECTED OUTCOMES ARE THE SUCCESSFUL RECRUITMENT AND PREPARATION OF PROSPECTIVE TEACHERS AND THEIR POST-GRADUATION EFFECTIVENESS AS HIGHLY QUALIFIED MATHEMATICS, PHYSICS, BIOLOGY, AND CHEMISTRY TEACHERS WHO FULFILL THEIR COMMITMENT TO TEACHING IN HIGH-NEED SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN THE QUAD CITIES AREA, CHICAGO, AND BEYOND. THIS PROJECT AT AUGUSTANA COLLEGE INCLUDES PARTNERSHIPS WITH ROCK ISLAND-MILAN SCHOOL DISTRICT 41, MOLINE-COAL VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT, UNITED TOWNSHIP SCHOOL DISTRICT 30, DAVENPORT (IA) COMMUNITY SCHOOL DISTRICT, EAST MOLINE SCHOOL DISTRICT 37, SILVIS SCHOOL DISTRICT 34, AND EPIC ACADEMY IN CITY OF CHICAGO SCHOOL DISTRICT #299. PROJECT GOALS INCLUDE PRODUCING 16 NEW STEM TEACHERS, WITH AT LEAST TWO TRANSFERRING FROM COMMUNITY COLLEGE, OVER 5 YEARS; RECRUITING UNDERGRADUATE CHEMISTRY, MATHEMATICS, PHYSICS, AND BIOLOGY MAJORS; AND INCREASING PARTICIPANTS' EFFECTIVENESS WORKING WITH DIVERSE POPULATIONS IN HIGH-NEED DISTRICTS THROUGH TARGETED COURSEWORK AND FIELD EXPERIENCES AT HIGH-NEED SCHOOLS DESIGNED TO IMPROVE INTER-CULTURAL COMPETENCY. FURTHER GOALS INCLUDE PLACING ALL 16 GRADUATES IN HIGH-NEED DISTRICTS FOR AT LEAST TWO YEARS FOR EACH YEAR OF SCHOLARSHIP SUPPORT RECEIVED, WITH ALL DEMONSTRATING EFFECTIVENESS AS STEM TEACHERS IN HIGH-NEED DISTRICTS, AS INDICATED BY ONSITE EVALUATION BY SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS. THE TEAM WILL INVESTIGATE THE EXTENT TO WHICH PROJECT ACTIVITIES INFLUENCE PROSPECTIVE TEACHERS? ATTITUDES TOWARD TEACHING IN HIGH-NEED SCHOOLS, ALONG WITH CHANGES IN SELF-EFFICACY IN THEIR CONTENT AREA, KNOWLEDGE OF CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE TEACHING PRACTICES, AND AWARENESS OF PRIVILEGE AND INSTITUTIONAL DISCRIMINATION. FINDINGS HOLD VALUE FOR A BROAD POPULATION OF TEACHER EDUCATION PROGRAMS AND SCHOOL DISTRICTS SEEKING TO INCREASE THE RECRUITMENT, PREPARATION, AND RETENTION OF EFFECTIVE STEM TEACHERS IN HIGH-NEED DISTRICTS. RESULTS WILL BE DISSEMINATED TO A BROADER AUDIENCE, INCLUDING THE REGIONAL AND NATIONAL STEM EDUCATION COMMUNITY, TEACHER PREPARATION PROGRAM ADMINISTRATORS AND FACULTY, AND DISTRICT ADMINISTRATORS. ULTIMATELY, THE PROJECT AIMS TO INCREASE PREPARATION PROGRAM PERSISTENCE AND MITIGATE TURNOVER IN THE TEACHING PROFESSION, WHILE DEEPENING PARTNERSHIPS AMONG HIGHER EDUCATION, HIGH-NEED DISTRICTS, AND COMMUNITY COLLEGES. THIS TRACK 1: SCHOLARSHIPS AND STIPENDS PROJECT IS SUPPORTED THROUGH THE ROBERT NOYCE TEACHER SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM (NOYCE).

THE PROGRAM PROVIDES A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY FOR INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION TO ESTABLISH MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACHES TO COMBAT DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DATING VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT, AND STALKING ON CAMPUSES. THESE COMPREHENSIVE EFFORTS ARE DESIGNED TO ENHANCE VICTIM SERVICES (INCLUDING LEGAL SERVICES), IMPLEMENT PREVENTION AND EDUCATION PROGRAMS, AND DEVELOP AND STRENGTHEN SECURITY AND INVESTIGATION STRATEGIES TO PREVENT, PROSECUTE, AND RESPOND TO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DATING VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT, AND STALKING. THE CAMPUS PROGRAM SUPPORTS ACTIVITIES THAT DEVELOP CAMPUS-BASED COORDINATED RESPONSES AMONG CAMPUS VICTIM SERVICES, CAMPUS LAW ENFORCEMENT, HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS, HOUSING OFFICIALS, ADMINISTRATORS, STUDENT LEADERS, FAITH-BASED ORGANIZATIONS, STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS, AND DISCIPLINARY BOARDS, ENHANCE VICTIM SAFETY AND THE PROVISION OF ASSISTANCE, AND HOLD OFFENDERS ACCOUNTABLE. TO BE EFFECTIVE, THESE RESPONSES MUST BE LINKED TO LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES, PROSECUTORS OFFICES, COURTS, AND NONPROFIT, NONGOVERNMENTAL VICTIM ADVOCACY AND VICTIM SERVICES ORGANIZATIONS. AUGUSTANA COLLEGE IS A PRIVATE FOUR-YEAR INSTITUTION LOCATED IN ROCK ISLAND, IL. WITH THIS CONTINUATION AWARD, AUGUSTANA COLLEGE, IN COLLABORATION WITH FAMILY RESOURCES, THE PROJECT OF QUAD CITIES, AND THE ROCK ISLAND POLICE DEPARTMENT, WILL CONTINUE TO MEET THE STATUTORY AND PROGRAMMATIC REQUIREMENTS. IN ADDITION, THE PROJECT WILL: 1) EXPAND THE SEXUAL ASSAULT PREVENTION EDUCATION PROGRAM (SAPE); 2) ADVANCE EQUITY WITH SPECIFIC STRATEGIES FOR HISTORICALLY MARGINALIZED POPULATIONS, INCLUDING LGBTQ AND INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS; 3) IMPROVE THE COORDINATED COMMUNITY RESPONSE TEAM; AND 4) EXPLORE THE POSSIBILITY OF IMPLEMENTING RESTORATIVE JUSTICE.

COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: EQUIPMENT: MRI CONSORTIUM: TRACK 2 DEVELOPMENT OF A NEXT GENERATION FAST NEUTRON DETECTOR -THE STUDY OF NEUTRON-RICH ATOMIC NUCLEI CAN REVEAL EFFECTS ABOUT HOW PROTONS AND NEUTRONS INTERACT INSIDE NUCLEI. THESE PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN THE FORMATION OF THE ELEMENTS IN THE UNIVERSE AND HELP SCIENTISTS UNDERSTAND HOW THE NUCLEAR CORE OF ATOMS FORM. ONE OF THE WAYS TO INVESTIGATE THESE NUCLEI AT THE EDGE OF STABILITY IS TO MEASURE THEIR BREAKUP PRODUCTS, WHICH INCLUDES THE NEUTRONS THAT ARE NOT NEEDED TO HOLD THE SMALLER NUCLEI TOGETHER. THE DETECTION OF NEUTRONS IS CHALLENGING BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO CHARGE AND ONLY INTERACT WITH THE NUCLEAR CORE OF ATOMS. THIS AWARD WILL SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT, BUILDING, AND COMMISSIONING OF A MODULAR ARRAY BASED ON PLASTIC SCINTILLATOR FOR THE DETECTION OF FAST (BETWEEN ONE THIRD AND ONE HALF THE SPEED OF LIGHT) NEUTRONS. THE NEW DETECTOR ARRAY WILL SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE HOW PRECISELY WE CAN DETERMINE THE NEUTRONS? POSITION COMPARED TO CURRENT NEUTRON DETECTORS BECAUSE IT WILL MAKE USE OF STATE-OF-THE-ART PHOTO-SENSORS, AND AS A RESULT ENABLE NUCLEAR STRUCTURE MEASUREMENTS WITH SUPERIOR PRECISION. THE DETECTOR MODULES WILL BE BUILT AND TESTED TO A LARGE EXTENT AT THE SEVEN PARTICIPATING UNDERGRADUATE INSTITUTIONS, ALLOWING UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS TO LEARN KEY TECHNICAL SKILLS AND TO CONTRIBUTE TO NUCLEAR PHYSICS RESEARCH IN A MEANINGFUL WAY. SCINTILLATION DETECTORS, I.E. DETECTORS THAT MEASURE THE SCINTILLATION LIGHT THAT STEMS FROM SUBATOMIC PARTICLES INTERACTING WITHIN THE DETECTOR, ARE WIDELY EMPLOYED IN RESEARCH, INDUSTRY, AND MEDICAL IMAGING, SO THESE SKILLS CAN BE APPLIED IN MANY CRUCIAL FIELDS. CONTEMPORARY FAST NEUTRON DETECTORS USE CONVENTIONAL DETECTOR CONFIGURATIONS OF LONG PLASTIC SCINTILLATOR BARS READ OUT BY PAIRS OF PHOTO-MULTIPLIER TUBES (PMTS). THE POSITION OF THE NEUTRON INTERACTION IS DEDUCED FROM THE TIME DIFFERENCE OF THE SIGNALS MEASURED BY EACH PMT AT OPPOSITE ENDS OF THE DETECTOR BAR, AND FROM WHICH DETECTOR BAR HAS BEEN HIT. A DIFFERENT APPROACH TO SCINTILLATION-LIGHT COLLECTION IS PURSUED IN THIS NEW DETECTOR USING ARRAYS OF SILICON PHOTO-MULTIPLIERS (SIPMS), OVERCOMING THE LIMITATIONS OF CURRENT DESIGNS AND RESULTING IN IMPROVED POSITION RESOLUTION FOR FAST NEUTRON DETECTION. THIS ALSO ALLOWS A TILED DESIGN THAT OFFERS MUCH MORE FLEXIBILITY IN ADJUSTING THE ACTIVE AREA OF THE ARRAY TO SPECIFIC EXPERIMENT NEEDS. INVARIANT-MASS SPECTROSCOPY OF NEUTRON-UNBOUND STATES IN ELEMENTS BEYOND OXYGEN REQUIRES SUCH AN EXPERIMENTAL SETUP WITH IMPROVED RESOLUTION. AS ONE MOVES TO HEAVIER UNBOUND SYSTEMS ONE FACES HIGHER LEVEL DENSITIES. TO RESOLVE THESE IN THE RECONSTRUCTED DECAY ENERGY SPECTRUM REQUIRES HIGHER MOMENTUM (AND THUS POSITION) RESOLUTION. A HIGH POSITION RESOLUTION ALSO IMPROVES THE DISCRIMINATION OF DOUBLE-SCATTERED EVENTS AND ALLOWS THE USE OF HIGHER BEAM ENERGIES THAT ARE AVAILABLE AT THE RARE-ISOTOPE BEAM FACILITIES SUCH AS THE FACILITY FOR RARE ISOTOPE BEAMS (FRIB). THE COMPLETED INSTRUMENT WILL SERVE THE BROAD FRIB USER COMMUNITY AND ENABLE INVARIANT MASS MEASUREMENTS AT THE RESOLUTION THAT IS REQUIRED FOR HEAVIER AND MORE EXOTIC ISOTOPES THAT ARE AVAILABLE WITH FRIB BEAMS. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.- SUBAWARDS ARE NOT PLANNED FOR THIS AWARD.

A FEASIBILITY STUDY OF A NOVEL, FULLY REMOTE COUNSELING AND SOUND THERAPY PROGRAM FOR HYPERACUSIS - PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT IN LINE WITH THE FUNDING GOALS OF THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH AND THE R15 AREA PROGRAM, THIS APPLICATION PROPOSES TO INVESTIGATE THE FEASIBILITY OF A REMOTE COUNSELING AND SOUND THERAPY PROGRAM FOR REDUCING REACTIONS TO HYPERACUSIS. HYPERACUSIS IS A HEARING CONDITION CAUSING ONE’S PERCEPTION OF SOUNDS TO BE ABNORMALLY LOUD, ANNOYING, FEARFUL, OR PAINFUL. CLINICAL MANAGEMENT OF HYPERACUSIS INVOLVES COUNSELING TO REDUCE NEGATIVE REACTIONS TO SOUNDS AND SOUND THERAPY TO IMPROVE LOUDNESS PERCEPTION. DESPITE THESE HELPFUL APPROACHES, MANAGEMENT OF HYPERACUSIS IS RESTRICTED TO HIGHLY SPECIALIZED PROFESSIONALS LOCATED AT LARGE CENTERS THAT ARE INACCESSIBLE BY MOST HYPERACUSIS PATIENTS. FURTHER, RESEARCH EVIDENCE FROM CONTROLLED TRIALS ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THESE TREATMENTS FOR HYPERACUSIS IS LACKING, INVOLVES ONLY A SMALL NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS, AND IS LIMITED TO SPECIFIC APPROACHES, SUCH AS COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL THERAPY AND LOW-LEVEL BACKGROUND NOISE. IN RESPONSE TO THESE NEEDS, THIS RESEARCH TEAM DEVELOPED HYPERACUSIS ACTIVITIES TREATMENT (HAT), WHICH INCLUDES TWO COMPONENTS: COUNSELING AND SOUND THERAPY. ITS EFFECTIVENESS WAS DEMONSTRATED THROUGH DATA OBTAINED FROM CLINICAL FOCUS GROUPS AND SMALL-SCALE RESEARCH STUDIES. THERE IS ADDITIONAL POTENTIAL FOR HAT TO BE REMOTELY ADMINISTERED, THUS ADDRESSING THE ACCESS-TO-CARE ISSUE CURRENTLY FACING MANY RURAL AND LOW-INCOME AMERICANS WHO ARE SUFFERING FROM HYPERACUSIS. THE AIM OF THIS PROPOSED R15 PROJECT IS TO GATHER EARLY CLINICAL EVIDENCE FOR THE EFFECTIVENESS OF HAT IN RELIEVING HYPERACUSIS USING A NOVEL, REMOTE DELIVERY APPROACH. THE INNOVATIVE ASPECTS OF THIS PROJECT, INCLUDING THE REMOTE DELIVERY AND ANALYSIS OF PATIENT-CENTERED INTERVENTIONS, WILL INFORM EVIDENCE-BASED CLINICAL GUIDELINES THAT ARE CURRENTLY LACKING AND PRODUCE MORE ACCESSIBLE SOLUTIONS FOR HYPERACUSIS MANAGEMENT. THE FIRST AIM WILL EVALUATE FEASIBILITY OF THE REMOTE COUNSELING PROGRAM, WHICH INCLUDES WEEKLY MODULES ON RELEVANT TOPICS, HOMEWORK, AND QUIZZES TO KEEP PARTICIPANTS ENGAGED, AND COACHING TO SUPPORT PARTICIPANTS. THE SECOND AIM WILL COMPARE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF TWO REMOTELY-ADMINISTERED SOUND THERAPY OPTIONS RECOMMENDED FOR HYPERACUSIS RELIEF BUT THAT ARE YET TO BE CLINICALLY EVALUATED—LOW-LEVEL BACKGROUND NOISE AND SUCCESSIVE APPROXIMATIONS USING BOTHERSOME SOUNDS. IN AIM 1, EACH PARTICIPANT WILL COMPLETE 4 WEEKS OF BASELINE TESTING (CONTROL) FOLLOWED BY 4 WEEKS OF COUNSELING (TREATMENT). IN AIM 2, PARTICIPANTS WILL BE RANDOMIZED INTO ONE OF TWO SOUND THERAPY GROUPS. AT THE END OF THE PROJECT, THE RESEARCH TEAM WILL HAVE THE EARLY CLINICAL EVIDENCE NEEDED TO SUPPORT LARGER, MULTI-SITE, FUTURE RANDOMIZED CLINICAL TRIALS THAT WILL BE DESIGNED TO MORE FULLY EVALUATE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE REMOTE DELIVERY OF HAT’S COUNSELING AND CUSTOMIZED SOUND THERAPY COMPONENTS TO REDUCE REACTIONS TO HYPERACUSIS. AS AN R15 AREA AWARD, THE PROJECT WILL ALSO HAVE A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT THROUGH THE RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES AFFORDED TO STUDENT RESEARCHERS WHO WILL BE ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN THE PROJECT, AND ON THE RESEARCH ENVIRONMENT BY ENHANCING THE PI’S WORK AND ADVANCING PRIORITIES OF UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH AT AUGUSTANA COLLEGE.
