Xie, Charles; Hazzard, Edmund – Physics Teacher, 2011
Based on detecting long-wavelength infrared (IR) radiation emitted by the subject, IR imaging shows temperature distribution instantaneously and heat flow dynamically. As a picture is worth a thousand words, an IR camera has great potential in teaching heat transfer, which is otherwise invisible. The idea of using IR imaging in teaching was first…

González, José Villacís – American Journal of Business Education, 2009
Economic activity in its different manifestations--production, exchange, consumption and, particularly, information on quantities and prices--generates and transfers energy. As a result, we can apply to it the basic laws of thermodynamics. These laws are applicable within a system, i.e., in a country or between systems and countries. To these…

Privitera, Gregory J.; Gillespie, James J.; Zuraikat, Faris M. – Health Education Journal, 2019
Objective: To extend findings from experimental price elasticity studies by examining these effects in a field setting and identifying gender differences in purchasing behaviour in response to variations in the cost of lower energy-dense (ED) and higher ED foods. Setting: Data were collected from low- and median-income male and female grocery…

Bozick, Robert; Doss, Christopher; Gonzalez, Gabriella; Siler-Evans, Kyle – AERA Open, 2020
Using data on a mid-sized community college in northeast Ohio as a case study, we examine patterns of enrollment in petroleum technology credential programs and labor market returns to those credentials. The enrollment analysis yields mixed results. Strong industry conditions represented by an increase in oil prices is associated with a decline in…

Alper, M. Patan; Aiordachioaiei, M. – Physics Education, 2021
Infrared (IR), or radiation, thermometers are widely used in temperature measurements in many different sectors from health, food, automotive, agriculture, iron and steel to chemistry due to their fast measurement capabilities, reasonable prices, wide measurement ranges and ease of use. IR thermometers work based on black body radiation. In this…

Price, Gareth; Bevins, Stuart – Electronic Journal for Research in Science & Mathematics Education, 2021
We have argued that science in general, and scientific inquiry in particular, is a human activity and that current models to describe science (either as Scientific Method or as a Body of Knowledge) tend to underestimate the significance of human beings in the phenomenon. Our earlier paper (Bevins & Price, 2016) suggests a model to correct this…

Green, Travis C.; Gresh, Rebekkah H.; Cochran, Desiree A.; Crobar, Kaitlyn A.; Blass, Peter M.; Ostrowski, Alexis D.; Campbell, Dean J.; Xie, Charles; Torelli, Andrew T. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Infrared (IR) thermography renders invisible infrared radiation with intuitive coloration in images and videos taken of objects, reactions, and processes. Educators can take advantage of this technology to extend students' sensory perception of chemical reactions or processes that absorb or release heat in rich detail. In theory, IR thermography…

Berg, Charles A. – Science, 1973
Discusses various ways in which the demand for energy could be decreased, focusing not so much on discouraging demand by increasing prices, as on reducing energy consumption by improving efficiency of energy utilization in buildings and in industry. (JR)

Crittenden, Christopher; Burnau, Teresa – New Directions for Higher Education, 1981
Colleges and universities will need to maintain economic stability in the face of decreasing energy supplies, periodic fuel shortages, increasing prices, and tighter budgets. The necessary physical plant measures and the commitment required of the entire campus community are discussed. (MLW)

Energy Task Force, Washington, DC. – 1983
This report provides statistical data on the amount of purchased energy consumed and the price paid for energy during fiscal years 1980-81 and 1981-82 at colleges and universities. These data were collected as part of an Energy Task Force project which was designed to: (1) establish a data gathering program that encourages colleges and…

Guglielmo, Dana; Chantaprasopsuk, Sicha; Kay, Christi M.; Hyde, Eric T.; Stewart, Chris; Gazmararian, Julie A. – Journal of School Health, 2020
Background: A nutritious diet can prevent obesity and chronic disease and improve academic performance, yet many children have energy-dense, nutrient-poor diets. The objective of this study was to assess nutrition policies, practices, and environments in Georgia Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Education (SNAP-Ed) elementary schools and…

Ginn, Alison; Majumdar, Anne; Carr, Marimba; Eastwood, Ginny; Menger, Beth – Health Education Journal, 2016
Background: Food security is a topical issue but one that can be difficult to measure. Objective: To develop a community-approved food basket tool and use this to investigate the availability and affordability of a healthy diet in a multicultural urban setting. Design: A 7-day healthy food basket (HFB) containing 96 foods for six household types…
