Promoting Preservice STEM Education Teachers' Metacognitive Awareness: Professional Development Designed to Improve Teacher Metacognitive Awareness

STEM education program evaluation

Hughes AJ.
GSID: lCqq89CHkmsJ
AJ Hughes, E Partida - Journal of technology Education, 2020 - scholarworks.lib.csusb.edu

This quantitative portion of a convergent complementarity, mixed-methods, exploratory study describes the design and implementation of a 5-week preservice teacher professional development (PD) experience and the associated Metacognitive Awareness Inventory (MAI) measures before and after the experience. The PD...

Reprint of: The effectiveness of common thermo-regulatory behaviours in a cool temperate grasshopper.

Journal of thermal biology

Harris RM, McQuillan P, Hughes L.
PMID: 26615722
J Therm Biol. 2015 Dec;54:12-9. doi: 10.1016/j.jtherbio.2015.10.008. Epub 2015 Nov 14.

Behavioural thermoregulation has the potential to alleviate the short-term impacts of climate change on some small ectotherms, without the need for changes to species distributions or genetic adaptation. We illustrate this by measuring the effect of behaviour in a...

Simultaneous Scanning Electron Microscope Imaging of Topographical and Chemical Contrast Using In-Lens, In-Column, and Everhart-Thornley Detector Systems.

Microscopy and microanalysis : the official journal of Microscopy Society of America, Microbeam Analysis Society, Microscopical Society of Canada

Zhang X, Cen X, Ravichandran R, Hughes LA, van Benthem K.
PMID: 27142307
Microsc Microanal. 2016 Jun;22(3):565-75. doi: 10.1017/S1431927616000751. Epub 2016 May 04.

The scanning electron microscope provides a platform for subnanometer resolution characterization of material morphology with excellent topographic and chemical contrast dependent on the used detectors. For imaging applications, the predominantly utilized signals are secondary electrons (SEs) and backscattered electrons...

Cardiovascular Risk Factors from Early Life Predict Future Adult Cardiac Structural and Functional Abnormalities: A Systematic Review of the Published Literature.

Journal of cardiology and therapeutics

Ghosh AK, Francis DP, Chaturvedi N, Kuh D, Mayet J, Hughes AD, Hardy RJ.
PMID: 27294103
J Cardiol Ther. 2014 Jul;2(2):78-87. doi: 10.12970/2311-052X.2014.02.02.4.

BACKGROUND: Clinical practice evaluates cardiovascular risk based on current risk factor (RF) levels [Blood pressure (BP), body mass index (BMI) and glycaemic control] largely disregarding previous risk-factor history over the totality of the life course. RFs are related to...

Interactions of perfluoroalkyl substances with a phospholipid bilayer studied by neutron reflectometry.

Journal of colloid and interface science

Nouhi S, Ahrens L, Campos Pereira H, Hughes AV, Campana M, Gutfreund P, Palsson GK, Vorobiev A, Hellsing MS.
PMID: 29073553
J Colloid Interface Sci. 2018 Feb 01;511:474-481. doi: 10.1016/j.jcis.2017.09.102. Epub 2017 Sep 28.

The interactions between perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and a phospholipid bilayer (1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) were investigated at the molecular level using neutron reflectometry. Representative PFASs with different chain length and functional groups were selected in this study including: perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS), perfluorohexanoate...

Assessment of Exercise Capacity and Oxygen Consumption Using a 6 min Stepper Test in Older Adults.

Frontiers in physiology

Jones S, Tillin T, Williams S, Coady E, Chaturvedi N, Hughes AD.
PMID: 28659823
Front Physiol. 2017 Jun 14;8:408. doi: 10.3389/fphys.2017.00408. eCollection 2017.

It is often necessary to assess physical function in older adults to monitor disease progression, rehabilitation or decline in function with age. However, increasing frailty and poor balance that accompany aging are common barriers to exercise testing protocols. We...

Objectively Measured Sedentary Time in Children and Their Parents.

AIMS public health

Hughes AR, Muggeridge DJ, Gibson AM, Johnstone A, Kirk A.
PMID: 29546197
AIMS Public Health. 2016 Sep 30;3(4):823-836. doi: 10.3934/publichealth.2016.4.823. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: No studies have examined associations in objectively measured sedentary time between parents and young people using activPAL posture sensors, which provide a more accurate estimate of sedentary time compared to accelerometer-based devices. This study examines patterns and associations...
