This mixed- methods study examines the impact and cost-effectiveness of a high dosage tutoring model for 4th grade math in a district with a proven track record of success in implementing such a model. High dosage tutoring is defined as frequent (three or more sessions per week), small group (three or four students per tutor) tutoring conducted during the school day by an adult who has been trained to deliver instruction that helps students meet grade level standards. This study will allow local, state, and national practitioners and policymakers to weigh the costs and benefits of two different approaches to delivering tutoring: a whole grade model and a targeted tutoring model.
The purpose of this study would be to establish an LCC training simulation for civilian first responders (i.e., paramedics, search and rescue, etc.).
K-12 teachers are facing an extraordinarily challenging time as our schools recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. To lend support to teachers in this difficult professional environment, this study aims to discover how archives and special collections can make online materials maximally accessible and useful for K-12 teachers. Using semi-structured interviews with ten K-12 teachers and website usage data from the "On the Books" library guide, this study will gather data about how teachers find, interact with, and teach with the online resources for primary source instruction developed by Wilson Library at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The findings will be considered to make recommendations for some ways that special collections librarians can better serve this group of patrons with online teaching resources.
We are interested in better understanding the experiences of a diverse group of individuals of South Asian descent with their body image and eating patterns, including what factors are associated with body dissatisfaction and disordered eating and which factors may be protective.
This study will explore how eating behaviors may change among UNC Chapel Hill students who grew up eating cultural or religious diets when they attend college. The study will also look at how access to cultural or religious foods may impact student wellbeing and how the university can support students with accessing cultural and religious foods.
The purpose of this study is to examine how resting brain activity is related to sleep behaviors and reactions to drinking alcohol.
