Abstract Several engineering programs around the country either require or encourage a cooperative education experience as part of their curriculum. In this paper, we examine effects on grade point average, length time in school, and starting salary. Statistical analyses show that have significant all three dimensions. These results are useful not only to students deciding whether participate programs, but also administrators determining role
The authors examine the relationship between students' locus of control and their evaluation teaching in a traditional principles economics course. Locus is psychological construct that identifies an individual's beliefs about degree personal can be exercised over his or her environment. Students with internal locus-of-control orientation accept responsibility for environment whereas those external believe they have little power to affect outcomes. entered Rotter scale scores derived from...
Eastern North Carolina (ENC) has been buffeted by compound coastal water events (CCWEs) making residential buyouts, that seek to move households and communities out of flood risk areas, an important hazard mitigation tool. However, little is known about the experiences local public officials implementing buyout programmes in rural regions such as ENC United States. Using data from focus group interviews conducted with 24 emergency managers, planners, elected officials, other we examine...
Abstract We develop a computational framework for the stochastic and dynamic modeling of regional natural catastrophe losses with an insurance industry to support government decision‐making hurricane risk management. The analysis captures temporal changes in building inventory due acquisition (buyouts) high‐risk properties vulnerability stock retrofit mitigation decisions. system is comprised set interacting models (1) simulate hazard events; (2) estimate hurricane‐induced from each event...
Abstract. Regional hurricane risk is often assessed assuming a static housing inventory, yet region's inventory changes continually. Failing to include in the built environment modeling can substantially underestimate expected losses. This study uses publicly available data and long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network model forecast annual number of units for each 1000 individual counties southeastern United States over next 20 years. When evaluated using testing data, estimated was...
The authors examined the Council for Economic Education's Training of Trainers program's effectiveness in post-Soviet Russia by evaluating teacher and student learning. employed a randomization teachers across treatment control groups at two separate stages research design found that participation workshop delivered native Russian trainers improved teachers’ Test Literacy scores approximately 10 percent, when they held all else constant. also learning was greater students who were taught...
Conventional theory predicts that productivity gains lead to hikes in real pay. Efficiency wage hypothesizes pay increases can improvements. But would such results be observed a corporatist economy with centralized bargaining? For the case of Austria, archetype, this study uses an innovative technique developed by Geweke disentangle relationship between and productivity. There already has been empirical evidence demands economies are relatively modest. Moreover, it claimed coordination...
