Taking professional development from 2D to 3D: Design-based learning, 2D modeling, and 3D fabrication for authentic standards-aligned lesson plans

lesson plans

Cairns DR, Curtis R, Sierros KA.
GSID: V0zu3ly5xRQJ
DR Cairns, R Curtis, KA Sierros… - … interdisciplinary journal of …, 2018 - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

… We believe that 3D printing can be incorporated into engineering design lesson plans that provide rich authentic contexts in which students can experience deep learning. We also believe that if these lesson plans are carefully constructed, they can...

Selective repression of SINE transcription by RNA polymerase III.

Mobile genetic elements

Varshney D, Vavrova-Anderson J, Oler AJ, Cairns BR, White RJ.
PMID: 26942044
Mob Genet Elements. 2015 Sep 23;5(6):86-91. doi: 10.1080/2159256X.2015.1096997. eCollection 2015.

A million copies of the Alu short interspersed nuclear element (SINE) are scattered throughout the human genome, providing ∼11% of our total DNA. SINEs spread by retrotransposition, using a transcript generated by RNA polymerase (pol) III from an internal...

Quantifying the impact of inter-site heterogeneity on the distribution of ChIP-seq data.

Frontiers in genetics

Cairns J, Lynch AG, Tavaré S.
PMID: 25452765
Front Genet. 2014 Nov 14;5:399. doi: 10.3389/fgene.2014.00399. eCollection 2014.

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) is a valuable tool for epigenetic studies. Analysis of the data arising from ChIP-seq experiments often requires implicit or explicit statistical modeling of the read counts. The simple Poisson model is attractive, but...

Time in Bed is Associated with Decreased Physical Activity and Higher BMI in Women Seeking Weight Loss Treatment.

ISRN obesity

Hart CN, Fava JL, Subak LL, Stone K, Vittinghoff E, Demos K, O'Brien E, Cairns A, Wing R.
PMID: 24198999
ISRN Obes. 2012;2012. doi: 10.5402/2012/320157.

Short sleep duration is associated with obesity risk. Despite calls to incorporate strategies to enhance sleep within the context of behavioral weight loss (BWL) treatment, little is known regarding the association between sleep and body mass index (BMI) among...

Tunable Rare Earth fcu-MOF Platform: Access to Adsorption Kinetics Driven Gas/Vapor Separations via Pore Size Contraction.

Journal of the American Chemical Society

Xue DX, Belmabkhout Y, Shekhah O, Jiang H, Adil K, Cairns AJ, Eddaoudi M.
PMID: 25825923
J Am Chem Soc. 2015 Apr 22;137(15):5034-40. doi: 10.1021/ja5131403. Epub 2015 Apr 10.

Reticular chemistry approach was successfully employed to deliberately construct new rare-earth (RE, i.e., Eu(3+), Tb(3+), and Y(3+)) fcu metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with restricted window apertures. Controlled and selective access to the resultant contracted fcu-MOF pores permits the achievement of...

Potential of metal-organic frameworks for separation of xenon and krypton.

Accounts of chemical research

Banerjee D, Cairns AJ, Liu J, Motkuri RK, Nune SK, Fernandez CA, Krishna R, Strachan DM, Thallapally PK.

Acc Chem Res. 2015 Feb 17;48(2):211-9. doi: 10.1021/ar5003126. Epub 2014 Dec 05.

CONSPECTUS: The total world energy demand is predicted to rise significantly over the next few decades, primarily driven by the continuous growth of the developing world. With rapid depletion of nonrenewable traditional fossil fuels, which currently account for almost...

Fructan synthesis, accumulation and polymer traits. II. Fructan pools in populations of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) with variation for water-soluble carbohydrate and candidate genes were not correlated with biosynthetic activity and demonstrated constraints to polymer chain extension.

Frontiers in plant science

Gallagher JA, Cairns AJ, Thomas D, Timms-Taravella E, Skøt K, Charlton A, Williams P, Turner LB.
PMID: 26528321
Front Plant Sci. 2015 Oct 15;6:864. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2015.00864. eCollection 2015.

Differences have been shown between ryegrass and fescue within the Festulolium subline introgression family for fructan synthesis, metabolism, and polymer-size traits. It is well-established that there is considerable variation for water-soluble carbohydrate and fructan content within perennial ryegrass. However...

A Novel Remote Sensing Approach for Prediction of Maize Yield Under Different Conditions of Nitrogen Fertilization.

Frontiers in plant science

Vergara-Díaz O, Zaman-Allah MA, Masuka B, Hornero A, Zarco-Tejada P, Prasanna BM, Cairns JE, Araus JL.
PMID: 27242867
Front Plant Sci. 2016 May 18;7:666. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2016.00666. eCollection 2016.

Maize crop production is constrained worldwide by nitrogen (N) availability and particularly in poor tropical and subtropical soils. The development of affordable high-throughput crop monitoring and phenotyping techniques is key to improving maize cultivation under low-N fertilization. In this...
