Feasible and accurate assessment tools developed for non-specialists are needed to scale community-based models of autism evaluation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate use of the Screening Tool for Autism in Toddlers and Young Children (STAT) when used by primary care practitioners (n = 10) across a statewide system of early diagnosis set…

This paper reports on teachers developing their own data literacy and then acting as data coaches for colleagues in their schools. The 13 teachers from 7 schools in the study analysed standardised data using a data conversation protocol to identify students with significant mathematical misconceptions. They then took data-informed action with…

The Engaged Engineering Program (EEP) project at ABC University is a five-year Track 2 NSF S-STEM that responds to challenges in recruiting and retaining academically talented, low-socioeconomic status students from diverse backgrounds into undergraduate engineering programs. The EEP project has successfully recruited four cohorts of Scholars and…

Teacher reports are one of the most valued methods when conducting school-based screening, identification, and treatment planning for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Yet, wide cross-national variations in the administrative diagnosis of ADHD have raised concerns about the potential impact of cultural bias on teachers' assessments.…

Title IX of the Every Student Succeeds Act (2015) provides the Department of Education with funds to award grants to enable states and districts to deliver services to families living in unstable housing situations.

Drawing on theory in developmental…

Camouflaging in autism spectrum disorder could be a factor in later diagnosis of individuals without co-occurring intellectual disability, particularly among those designated female sex at birth.

Previous research suggests people struggle to detect a series of movements that might imply hostile intentions of a vessel, yet this ability is crucial in many real world Naval scenarios. To investigate possible mechanisms for improving performance, participants engaged in a simple, simulated ship movement task. One of two hostile behaviors were…

A novel undergraduate analytical chemistry experiment involving the identification and quantification of linalool in essential oils was developed. The experiment uses the internal standard method with headspace solid phase microextraction (SPME) and gas chromatography--mass spectrometry (GC-MS). This method is applicable to any linalool-containing…

'Local students' attend college or university in the same city where they attended high school. Local students' self-narratives suggest that their 'identity or sense of self' and 'sense of belonging or connection with others' may hinder their academic success. This study gathered data from focus groups and surveys of local and non-local students…
