The Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics (NCTM 1989) challenges the teacher to shift away from memorization and set procedures. Instead, teachers should emphasize developing flexible strategies of problem solving, finding multiple representations, and making connections to other areas of mathematics and to the real world. The cevian problem presented here illustrates how to implement this shift of emphasis.

In this publication, I describe some of the results of several years’ research and experimentation in the field of Web API Protocols (JSON/XML/Media over HTTP) and Software APIs tracing the migration of ‘Schema’ into software class definitions, annotations, formal and semi-formal markup document types describing their structure and usefulness. Using a specific use case as a representative example, I demonstrate the rationale, steps and results of an experimental proof of concept. The proof of concept utilizes a wide variety of easily available techniques and tools rarely used together in a work-flow to reverse engineer a REST API from its behavior. It involves coupled transformations of data, schema, and software, through multiple representations utilizing tools from otherwise disparate domains to produce a largely auto-generated application to aid in a real world business problems.

AbstractIf we want psychological science to have a meaningful real-world impact, it has to be trusted by the public. Scientific progress is noisy; accordingly, replications sometimes fail even for true findings. We need to communicate the acceptability of uncertainty to the public and our peers, to prevent psychology from being perceived as having nothing to say about reality.

This article presents some streamlined and intentionally oversimplified ideas about educating future communication disorders professionals to use some of the most basic principles of evidence-based practice. Working from a popular five-step approach, modifications are suggested that may make the ideas more accessible, and therefore more useful, for university faculty, other supervisors, and future professionals in speech-language pathology, audiology, and related fields.

Qualitative case study research can be a valuable tool for answering complex, real-world questions. This method is often misunderstood or neglected due to a lack of understanding by researchers and reviewers. This tutorial defines the characteristics of qualitative case study research and its application to a broader understanding of stuttering that cannot be defined through other methodologies. This article will describe ways that data can be collected and analyzed.
