Bozick, Robert; Sastry, Narayan; Liu, Airan – Youth & Society, 2022
This study examines the relationship between health and adolescent employment. Using data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics' Child Development Supplement and Transition into Adulthood Supplement, we examine a cohort of 2,925 youth who were followed from childhood into adolescence. We focus on two outcomes measured when sample members were…

Asempapa, Reuben S.; Sastry, Aishwarya M. – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2021
Mathematical modeling has been recognized and highlighted in most standards and reports as an important concept to the teaching and learning of mathematics. The study investigated 208 PK-8 preservice teachers' (PSTs') familiarity and experiences with mathematical modeling. The study adopted a survey-design perspective to collect data from 10…

Rambocas, Meena; Sastry, Musti K. S. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2017
Some education specialists are challenging the use of traditional strategies in classrooms and are calling for the use of contemporary teaching and learning techniques. In response to these calls, many field experiments that compare different teaching and learning strategies have been conducted. However, to date, little is known on the outcomes of…

Fomby, Paula; Sastry, Narayan; McGonagle, Katherine A. – Field Methods, 2017
We describe an experiment to provide a time-limited incentive among a random sample of 594 hard-to-reach respondents, 200 of whom were offered the incentive to complete all survey components of a study during a three-week winter holiday period. Sample members were primary caregivers of children included in the 2014 Child Development Supplement to…

Colwell, Malinda J.; Corson, Kimberly; Sastry, Anuradha; Wright, Holly – Early Child Development and Care, 2016
In this mixed methods study, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 3-5-year-olds (n?=?21) in a university-sponsored preschool programme and children completed a theory of mind (ToM) task. After grouping children into pass/no pass groups for the ToM tasks, analyses using interpretive phenomenology indicated that preschool children explain…

G. S., Suresh Babu – Routledge Research in International and Comparative Education, 2019
"Education and the Public Sphere" conceptually and empirically investigates and unfolds several complexities embedded in the educational system in India by exploring it as a site of transforming the public sphere. Bringing together a range of contributions from education and the social sciences, this volume analyses and reflects on…

Sastry, K. R. S. – Mathematics and Computer Education, 2007
This paper takes a known point from Brocard geometry, a known result from the geometry of the equilateral triangle, and bring in Euler's [empty set] function. It then demonstrates how to obtain new Brocard Geometric number theory results from them. Furthermore, this paper aims to determine a [triangle]ABC whose Crelle-Brocard Point [omega]…

Children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) receive supports and services in general and special education classrooms in schools. The present study aimed to report the contents of individualized education programs (IEPs) for children with ADHD and to compare the behavior of children with ADHD who had IEPs versus those with ADHD…

Mc Mullen, Vickie – ProQuest LLC, 2012
The challenge of ensuring educational equity, closing the achievement gap between African American students and White students attending public schools has gone on for half a century. As we enter the twenty-first century, neither educational reforms enacted by the public school system nor legislative actions, the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act of…

Sastry, K. R. S. – Mathematics and Computer Education, 2005
Mathematical historians place Heron in the first century. Right-angled triangles with integer sides and area had been determined before Heron, but he discovered such a "non" right-angled triangle, viz 13, 14, 15; 84. In view of this, triangles with integer sides and area are named "Heron triangles." The Indian mathematician Brahmagupta, born in…

Soam, S. K.; Sastry, R. Kalpana; Rashmi, H. B. – Journal of Agricultural Education and Extension, 2007
Higher education is a service that contributes to national development, integration and regional cohesion. Agricultural education in particular has been viewed in many developing countries as a significant contributor to sustainable development and poverty alleviation. In view of its public mandate, higher education in most countries is regulated…

Sastry, K. R. S. – College Mathematics Journal, 1991
Discussed are properties possessed by polygons inscribed in the lattice parabola y=x, including the area of a triangle, triangles of minimum area, conditions for right triangles, triangles whose area is the cube of an integer, and implications of Pick's Theorem. Further directions to pursue are suggested. (MDH)
