Designing and Delivering Effective Faculty Development With the Adult Learner in Mind

New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT University faculty are busy professionals tasked with many different responsibilities. While they certainly care about student success, their expertise is generally discipline‐specific and strategies for effective and engaging teaching are developed in the classroom along the way.

Global attractor for a class of nonlinear lattices

Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 2010
AbstractWe consider a class of nonlinear lattices with nonlinear damping(0.1)u¨n(t)+(−1)pΔpun(t)+αun(t)+h(un(t))+g(n,u˙n(t))=fn, where n∈Z, t∈R+, α is a real positive constant, p is any positive integer and Δ is the discrete one-dimensional Laplace operator.

Global Attractor for Partial Functional Differential Equations with State-Dependent Delay

Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2013
This work aims to investigate the existence of global attractors for a class of partial functional differential equations with state-dependent delay. Using the classic theory about global attractors in infinite dimensional dynamical systems, we obtain ...

Instructional Design and Facilitation for Multigenerational Online Learning in Higher Education—Baby Boomers, Generation X, Millennials, and Generation Z

New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nontraditional students represent a substantial number and significant percentage of students in higher education. While these adult learners have similarities, they also span 50+ years with generational differences. At the same time, online learning is on the rise, offering opportunities and challenges for nontraditional students and those ...

Trajectory and global attractors for generalized processes

Discrete & Continuous Dynamical Systems - B, 2019
In this work the theory of generalized processes is used to describe the dynamics of a nonautonomous multivalued problem and, through this approach, some conditions for the existence of trajectory attractors are proved. By projecting the trajectory attractor on the phase space, the uniform attractor for the multivalued process associated to the problem

Starting From Scratch: A White Woman's Journey to Build a Teaching Center Rooted in Adult Learning and Feminist Theories at an HBCU

New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This autobiographical article recounts a White woman's efforts to establish a center for teaching and learning (CTL) in a large HBCU in the southern part of the United States. She describes the ways in which tenets of critical feminism, feminist pedagogies, and adult learning and development informed her approach to faculty development.

Existence of global attractor for the Trojan Y Chromosome model

, 2012
This paper is concerned with the long time behavior of solution for the equation derived by the Trojan Y Chromosome (TYC) model with spatial spread. Based on the regularity estimates for the semigroups and the classical existence theo- rem of global ...

Existence and regularity of a global attractor for doubly nonlinear parabolic equations

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2002
In this paper we consider a doubly nonlinear parabolic partial differential equation $$ frac{partial eta (u)}{partial t}-Delta _{p}u+f(x,t,u)=0 quad hbox{in }Omega imesmathbb{R}^{+}, $$ with Dirichlet boundary condition and initial data given.
