History of Construction, Engineering, and Management in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Penn State

At Penn State, the credit for broadening the Civil Engineering Department’s longstanding academic focus on analysis and design to include the construction phase must go to Dr. Harmer A. Weeden and his longtime associate Dr. Thomas D. Larson. Jack H. Willenbrock joined the Department as an Instructor in June 1968 and grew the construction program so that today about a fourth to a third of the civil undergraduates obtain employment in the construction industry. The program has awarded about 250 postbaccalaureate degrees.     

Introducing Students to Professional Practice in Civil Engineering

This paper describes a module that was introduced into a civil engineering degree program with the help of professional engineers. The aim was to develop a bridge between the world of learning and professional practice by putting students in the role of consulting engineers working with industry to produce a feasible solution to a real inquiry from a client. The module is placed in context by comparing the goals of accredited civil engineering programs in the United Kingdom and America, by describing how it is linked to the degree program and by explaining the matrix developed to identify the skills the students needed to demonstrate their ability to practice as professional engineers. Details of the module are given with examples of student work and feedback.     

谈谈马克思主义理论课教师世界观与价值观修养问题

马克思主义理论课教师世界观的要求就是辩证唯物主义和历史唯物主义的思想体系和方法论；其价值观的要求就是以大公无私为特征的价值判断标准。马克思主义理论课所具有的知识性和思想性、科学性和实践性相统一的特点，要求马克思主义理论课教师，不仅要有扎实的化知识，而且必须加强其世界观和价值观的修养。许多事实证明，只有这样才能真正提高马克思主义理论课的教学实效。     

MPLS VPN和VPDN在企业信息化中的应用

MPLS和VPDN技术为企业信息化，实现集数据、语音和视频于一体的综合企业专网创造了条件。MPLS VPN将公众网可靠的性能、丰富的功能与专用网的安全性结合在一起，使企业能利用无处不在的Internet通过单一网络结构为职员和商业伙伴提供无缝和安全的连接。比组建专网节约投资和通信费用，无须进行专门的管理维护。对于具有2个以上分支机构的中小企业以及大型企业都具有很强的实用价值。

The effects of attrition on baseline comparability in randomized experiments in education: A meta-analysis.

Using meta-analysis, randomized experiments in education that either clearly did or clearly did not experience student attrition were examined for the baseline comparability of groups. Results from 35 studies suggested that after attrition, the observed measures of baseline comparability of groups did not differ more than would be expected given sampling error. The degree of either overall or differential attrition did not relate to baseline comparability, a finding that held under sensitivity analyses. Also, both overall and differential attrition rates were unrelated to posttest effect sizes. All of these analyses, however, lacked sufficient statistical power to detect small but potentially meaningful effects. Results suggest caution is warranted when applying quality scales and other blanket rules pertaining to attrition that are meant to either serve as inclusion-exclusion criteria or in scoring study quality. Much greater attention is needed to both the reporting of attrition in primary studies and to the development of conceptual and empirical models of the attrition process. These developments would aid further investigation of the relation between attrition and study outcomes. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)     

Why is science difficult to learn? Things are seldom what they seem

Abstract The difficulties of learning science are related to the nature of science itself and to the methods by which science is customarily taught without regard to what is known about children's learning. An information processing model is proposed to guide thinking and research in this area.
