DEVELOPMENT OF TEACHING METHODS TO IMPROVE UNDERGRADUATE STUDENT UNDERSTANDING OF EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN AND APPLICATION OF SCIENCE CONCEPTS TO EVERYDAY LIFE -THIS PROJECT AIMS TO SERVE THE NATIONAL INTEREST BY DEVELOPING BETTER TEACHING METHODS AND ASSESSMENT TOOLS TO IMPROVE UNDERSTANDING OF EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN IN UNDERGRADUATE BIOLOGY STUDENTS. THE NATURAL SCIENCES, INCLUDING BIOLOGY, ARE BASED ON USE OF EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE, ESPECIALLY COLLECTED FROM CONTROLLED EXPERIMENTS. STUDENTS WHO GRADUATE FROM UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS IN BIOLOGY SHOULD HAVE A SOLID UNDERSTANDING OF EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN AND THE LOGIC BEHIND CONTROLLED EXPERIMENTS. ARGUABLY, ALL UNIVERSITY-EDUCATED PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE SOME UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROCESS OF SCIENCE, REPRESENTED BY UNDERSTANDING THE ROLE OF EXPERIMENTAL EVIDENCE. FURTHERMORE, EVIDENCE FROM MULTIPLE DISCIPLINES, SUCH AS COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY AND DISCIPLINE-BASED EDUCATION RESEARCH, HAS LED TO THE HYPOTHESIS THAT IF A PERSON UNDERSTANDS EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN, THEY MAY BE ABLE TO APPLY THOSE SKILLS TO THEIR EVERYDAY LIVES, DEMONSTRATING ACHIEVEMENT OF AN IMPORTANT GOAL IN SCIENCE EDUCATION, KNOWN AS SCIENTIFIC LITERACY. THE GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO DEVELOP BETTER METHODS OF ASSESSING UNDERSTANDING OF CONTROLLED EXPERIMENTS, TO DEVELOP BETTER METHODS OF ASSESSING SPECIFIC SCIENTIFIC LITERACY SKILLS, AND TO DEVELOP BETTER METHODS OF TEACHING ABOUT EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN IN UNDERGRADUATE-LEVEL INTRODUCTORY BIOLOGY, IN BOTH LECTURE AND LAB COURSE COMPONENTS. THIS WORK REPRESENTS POSSIBLE FORWARD MOMENTUM ACROSS DISCIPLINES AND WILL ALLOW HYPOTHESES FROM THE LEARNING SCIENCES TO BE TESTED IN UNDERGRADUATE BIOLOGY CLASSROOMS. A GUIDING HYPOTHESIS OF THIS PROJECT IS THAT IMPROVED METACOGNITIVE SKILLS WILL ALLOW IMPROVED EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN SKILLS. THIS WORK MAY ALSO BENEFIT TEACHING IN OTHER NATURAL SCIENCE DISCIPLINES AT THE UNDERGRADUATE LEVEL AND POSSIBLY BENEFIT TEACHING FOR PRIMARY AND SECONDARY STUDENTS. AN INITIAL GOAL OF THE PROJECT IS TO GATHER RICH DATA ON UNDERSTANDING OF EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN THROUGH INTERVIEWS OF BEGINNER AND EXPERIENCED UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS, AS WELL AS EXPERT FACULTY. THESE DATA WILL BE USED TO DEVELOP BETTER TOOLS FOR ASSESSMENT AND TEACHING OF EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN. A SECOND, PARALLEL ASPECT OF THE PROJECT WILL BE TO COLLECT BASELINE DATA FROM ALL STUDENTS IN UNDERGRADUATE INTRODUCTORY BIOLOGY, LECTURE AND LAB, AT A DIVERSE INSTITUTION OF HIGHER EDUCATION. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN SKILL AND A SCIENTIFIC LITERACY SKILL WILL BE MEASURED THROUGH STANDARD INSTRUMENTS, THAT INVOLVE WRITTEN EXPLANATIONS BASED ON SCIENTIFIC SCENARIOS. USING INTERVIEW DATA AS WELL AS DATA FROM THE BASELINE COURSE, AN INTERVENTION WILL BE DESIGNED FOR INTRODUCTORY BIOLOGY, INTERWOVEN THROUGHOUT THE LECTURE AND LAB, TO SUPPORT METACOGNITIVE SKILL DEVELOPMENT, IN SUPPORT OF EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN SKILLS. THE HYPOTHESIS THAT IMPROVED EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN SKILLS MAY SHOW TRANSFER TO A SCIENTIFIC LITERACY SKILL WILL ALSO BE TESTED. THE INTERVENTION WILL BE CONDUCTED ACROSS ALL COURSE SECTIONS OF INTRODUCTORY BIOLOGY FOR TWO SUBSEQUENT ACADEMIC YEARS, ALLOWING GENERATION OF AN ADEQUATE SAMPLE FOR STATISTICAL ANALYSIS, INCLUDING MULTIPLE LINEAR REGRESSION. THE INTERVENTION WILL BE DESIGNED TO BE FLEXIBLE AND ADAPTABLE, WITH MUCH THOUGHT PLACED IN HOW THE INTERVENTION COULD BE DEPLOYED IN CLASSROOMS AT VARIOUS INSTITUTIONS. THE PROJECT WILL ALSO SUPPORT A FACULTY LEARNING COMMUNITY, TO SUPPORT FACULTY BUY-IN AND COLLABORATION. THE NSF IUSE: EDU PROGRAM SUPPORTS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS TO IMPROVE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF STEM EDUCATION FOR ALL STUDENTS. THROUGH THE ENGAGED STUDENT LEARNING TRACK, THE PROGRAM SUPPORTS THE CREATION, EXPLORATION, AND IMPLEMENTATION OF PROMISING PRACTICES AND TOOLS. 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.

ENHANCING ARTS AND RECREATION PARTICIPATION AMONG PEOPLE WITH NEURODEVELOPMENTAL DISORDERS THROUGH OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY CONSULTATION: AN EXPLORATION OF STAKEHOLDER PROCESSES AND OUTCOMES - PEOPLE WITH NEURODEVELOPMENTAL DISORDERS (NDDS) FACE PARTICIPATION BARRIERS IN ARTS AND RECREATION SETTINGS INCLUDING MUSEUMS, THEATERS, AND FESTIVALS. THESE BARRIERS OFTEN RELATE TO ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS INCLUDING CROWDS, PUBLIC ATTITUDES, AND LACK OF STAFF TRAINING. OCCUPATIONAL THERAPISTS (OTS) PROVIDE CONSULTATION FOR ARTS AND RECREATION ORGANIZATIONS TO ADDRESS THESE BARRIERS, AND EXISTING RESEARCH SHOWS OT CONSULTATION HAS BEEN POSITIVELY RECEIVED BY ORGANIZATION STAFF AND CAREGIVERS OF PEOPLE WITH NDDS. HOWEVER, RESEARCH ON OT CONSULTATION IN ARTS AND RECREATION SETTINGS IS LIMITED, AND NO BEST PRACTICE GUIDELINES EXIST. THEREFORE, THE GOAL OF THIS STUDY IS TO STRENGTHEN THE EVIDENCE BASE FOR OT CONSULTATION THROUGH UTILIZING NOVEL METHODOLOGY AND CONTRIBUTING FOUNDATIONAL DATA TO ANCHOR DEVELOPMENT OF BEST PRACTICE GUIDELINES FOR OT CONSULTATION IN ARTS AND RECREATION SETTINGS. AIM 1 IS TO INVESTIGATE OTS’ PROCESS COMPONENTS WHEN ENGAGING IN ORGANIZATION-LEVEL CONSULTATION IN ARTS AND RECREATION SETTINGS. AIM 2 IS TO EXPLORE FEASIBILITY OF A MIXED METHODS APPROACH USING GOAL ATTAINMENT SCALING FOR EXAMINING ORGANIZATIONAL OUTCOMES OF OT CONSULTATION AND ORGANIZATIONAL PERSPECTIVES ON OT CONSULTATION. AIM 3 IS TO EXPLORE FEASIBILITY OF A QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH TO EXAMINE THE IMPACT OF OT CONSULTATION ON PEOPLE WITH NDDS’ EXPERIENCES OF BELONGING IN ARTS AND RECREATION SETTINGS. OUTCOMES OF THIS RESEARCH INCLUDE DISSEMINATION OF FINDINGS TO INFORM DESIGN OF FUTURE OUTCOME STUDIES AND LARGER SCALE INVESTIGATIONS. THIS RESEARCH IS A VITAL STEP IN DEVELOPING BEST PRACTICE GUIDELINES FOR OT CONSULTATION THAT WILL MAXIMIZE ACCESSIBLE AND INCLUSIVE ARTS AND RECREATION PARTICIPATION FOR PEOPLE WITH NDDS. THIS STUDY FALLS UNDER NIDILRR’S COMMUNITY LIVING AND PARTICIPATION DOMAIN.

NUTR 390, EXPERIMENTALFOODS, INVOLVES STUDENTS IN HANDS-ON RESEARCH PROJECTS WHICH THEY PRESENT PUBLICLY. NUTRITION 407,THE RECIPE BOX CAF&EACUTE;, IS A COURSE IN WHICH STUDENTS PREPARE AND SERVE MEALS TO THE PUBLIC AS A WAY TOLEARN ABOUT FOOD QUALITY AND SAFETY ALONG WITH PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION.MENTORING FOR THE SUCCESS OF THE MSP SCHOLARS WILL BE PROVIDED BY DR. JILL WHITE,PROFESSOR AND CHAIR OF NUTRITION SCIENCES AT DU AND PD ON THIS PROPOSED PROJECT. AS THE SCHOLARS&#39;PRIMARY FACULTY ADVISOR SHE WILL MEET WITH THEM ON A MONTHLY BASIS AND WILL BE IN REGULAR CONTACTWITH THE SCHOLARS&#39; VARIOUS PROFESSORS AND INSTRUCTORS. SHOULD A SCHOLAR FALL BEHIND IN A CLASS, DR.WHITE WILL RECEIVE AN ALERT THROUGH THE UNIVERSITY-WIDE UNDERGRADUATE WARNING NOTICE SYSTEM USEDBY ALL FACULTY MEMBERS AT DU TO COMMUNICATE REGARDING STUDENTS DEMONSTRATING AT-RISK BEHAVIORS(MISSING CLASS EXCESSIVELY, MISSING ASSIGNMENTS, LOW TEST PERFORMANCE, ETC.).DR. WHITE WILL AID THE STRUGGLING STUDENT IN INCREASING THEIR ENGAGEMENT WITH MULTIPLE"BEST PRACTICES" SUPPORT SERVICES ON THE DU CAMPUS DESIGNED TO ENSURE STUDENT SUCCESS. THESEINCLUDE TUTORING BY BOTH PROFESSIONAL AND PEER TUTORS THROUGH THE ACADEMIC ENRICHMENT CENTER ANDHOLISTIC ADVISING PROVIDED THROUGH A RICH AND COORDINATED COMBINATION OF RESOURCES (ACADEMIC ASWELL AS SOCIO-EMOTIONAL ADVISING, MULTICULTURAL STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES, DISABILITY SUPPORT SERVICES,ETC.).

GROW WAS CREATED TO MEET THE GROWING NEED FOR RDS IN THREE CAPACITIES: (1) RETAIN INDIVIDUALS OF DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS WITHIN THE FIELD OF NUTRITION AND DIETETICS, (2) PREPARATION FOR AN ADVANCED DEGREE IN NUTRITION AND DIETETICS TO MEET CHANGING REQUIREMENTS IN THE FIELD AND (3) LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT IN THE DOMAIN OF SUSTAINABLE, RESILIENT AND HEALTHY FOOD AND WATER SYSTEMS TO MEET THE GROWING DEMAND FOR THIS SKILL SET. TO INCREASE EQUITY WITHIN THE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, HAVING INDIVIDUALS OF DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS IS PARAMOUNT. HOWEVER, THERE ARE MANY OBSTACLES IN THE WAY OF REACHING THAT GOAL. IN ADDITION, THE ACCREDITATION COUNCIL FOR EDUCATION IN NUTRITION AND DIETETICS (ACEND) HAS MANDATED THAT AS OF JANUARY 1, 2024, ALL CANDIDATES FOR THE NUTRITION AND DIETETICS REGISTRATION EXAM HAVE TO OBTAIN A MASTER OF SCIENCE DEGREE BEFORE SITTING FOR THE EXAM. IN ORDER TO ENSURE OUR STUDENTS ARE COMPETITIVE FOR MS PROGRAMS AT SCHOOLS AROUND THE COUNTRY AND HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO REMAIN IN THE FIELD THEY HAVE BEEN TRAINING IN, WE HAVE CREATED A PROJECT THAT USES HOLISTIC MENTORSHIP AND SPECIAL EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING TO FACILITATE GROWTH OF SOFT SKILLS, PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT, RESEARCH SKILLS, AND LEADERSHIP SKILLS IN THE STUDENTS THAT PARTICIPATE. BUILDING THESE SKILLS SETS AND REFINING THEM THROUGH THE COURSE OF THE PROJECT WILL MAXIMIZE THE STUDENTS&#39; POTENTIAL AND MAKE THEM COMPETITIVE FOR THEIR NEXT STEP TOWARDS AN ADVANCED DEGREE. IN ADDITION, THE DEVELOPMENT OF THESE SKILL SETS WILL BE DONE SIMULTANEOUSLY WITH EXPANDING THE STUDENTS&#39; KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCES WITH SUSTAINABLE RESILIENT AND HEALTHY FOOD AND WATER SYSTEMS. THE STUDENTS WILL BE EXPOSED TO MULTIPLE SPECIAL EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES AS WELL AS ADVISEMENT AND MENTORING FROM THE CO-PIS TO CREATE AN UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH PROJECT AND COMMUNITY PROGRAM TO ADDRESS A TOPIC WITHIN THE SUSTAINABILITY SPACE.

WOOD PENETRATION OF FUMIGANTS AND EFFICACY OF METHYL BROMIDE ALTERNATIVES ON WOOD PATHOGENS

THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO TRANSITION A PUBLISHED MOLECULAR ASSAY FOR DIAGNOSIS OF PHYTOPHTHORA RAMORUM, ADAPT IT TO WATER SAMPLING AND DETECTION APPLICATIONS FOR USE BY USDA APHIS, USDA FS NPDN, STATE, FEDERAL AND COMMERCIAL DIAGNOSTIC LABORATORIES. THE RESULTING RAPID MOLECULAR P. RAMORUM DETECTION TECHNIQUE FOR WATER SAMPLES WOULD REDUCE THE TIME FACTOR SIGNIFICANTLY, TO APPROXIMATELY 1 TO 2 DAYS, WITH REDUCED COST SAVINGS. ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED: WE WILL ADAPT OUR PREVIOUSLY DEVELOPED METHODS FOR RAPID RECOVERY OF P. RAMORUM PROPAGULES FROM WATER SAMPLES COUPLED WITH RAPID, SENSITIVE RECOMBINASE POLYMERASE AMPLIFICATION (RPA) DIAGNOSTIC ASSAY TO PROVIDE A METHOD FOR IDENTIFICATION OF PHYTOPHTHORA RAMORUM IN IRRIGATION AND SURFACE WATERS COMMONLY ENCOUNTERED IN STATE SURVEYS AND NURSERY INSPECTIONS. DELIVERABLES AND EXPECTED OUTCOMES: THE PRIMARY OBJECTIVE IS TO ADAPT AN ISOTHERMAL RPA ASSAY FOR DETECTION OF PHYTOPHTHORA RAMORUM IN WATER SAMPLES. THIS WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY TESTING THE RPA ASSAY USING PREVIOUSLY DEVELOPED FLOCCULATION PROTOCOLS FOR INTERFERENCE OR INHIBITION BY FLOCCULATE SALTS AND ORGANIC MATTER IN P. RAMORUM ZOOSPORE-SPIKED WATER SAMPLES, MEASURE DIAGNOSTIC SENSITIVITY/LIMIT OF DETECTION OF RPA ASSAY ON P. RAMORUM PROPAGULES RECOVERED BY FLOCCULATION FROM ZOOSPORE-SPIKED WATER SAMPLES, AND ANALYTICAL SENSITIVITY ON EXTRACTED DNA, AND MEASURE ACCURACY AND PRECISION OF RPA ASSAY ON P. RAMORUM ZOOSPORE SPIKED WATER SAMPLES. THE END DELIVERABLE WILL BE TO TRANSFER THIS TECHNOLOGY TO DIAGNOSTIC PLANT PATHOLOGISTS AT APHIS PPQ PPCDL BELTSVILLE LAB FOR VALIDATION. INTENDED BENEFICIARY(IES): PPQ P. RAMORUM PROGRAM, STATE DEPARTMENTS OF AGRICULTURE LABS AND THE NATIONAL PLANT DIAGNOSTIC NETWORK LABS PROVIDING DIAGNOSTIC TESTING SERVICES TO REGULATORY PROGRAMS. SUBRECIPIENT ACTIVITIES, IF KNOWN OR SPECIFIED AT THE TIME OF AWARD: A SEPARATE AGREEMENT IS DEVELOPED FOR A COLLABORATOR ON THIS PROJECT.
