Receiving an acceptance letter to college can be both exciting and daunting for many students. For some, attending college has been an expectation since birth, but for others they will be the first in their family to attend. This chapter identifies ways to support emerging adults, including advising, mentoring, and coaching as they transition to the college campus and remain to complete their studies. Additional information on the challenges faced by first-generation college students is provided as well. The case study describes the First-Year Success (FYS) Center at Arizona State University. Guiding questions help readers consider how they might increase student retention and success at their own institutions.

The MIGRANT MATH SK ILLS INFORMATI ON SYSTEM commun icates the previously learned math skil ls and the math skill area the students were working on at the send ing school to the receiving school. The system serves all migrant students in the United States and is designed to aid teachers in pl acing newly arriving students in appropriate math studies. Part of the National Migrant Students Record Transfer System (MSRTS), the math system is based on a four-level “dictionary” of math skills; level 1 is topics, which include readiness, number meaning, whole numbers, fractions, decimals, percents, measurement geometry, sets, probability, and statistics. Level 2 is subtopics, with levels 3 and 4 being skills and subskills.

This study examined the effectiveness of SoDriGa strategy in teaching mathematics among 4th-grade pupils of Batangas State University ARASOF- Nasugbu Laboratory School. The data from the results of TIMSS (2003) and PISA (2018) revealed that there were poor mathematical performances among Filipino learners. On the need to address this issue on enhancing mathematics instruction, it is imperative that relevant efforts to be conducted to improve performance among Filipino learners. The aforementioned innovation in teaching is consonant to the provisions of Section 10.2 paragraph (a), (d), and (k) of Republic Act 10533, Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013, that the curriculum shall be learner- centered, contextualized, and flexible enough to enable and allow schools to localize and indigenize instructional materials. Using multiple pre- and post-tests design, the findings revealed that respondents consistently performed well in their post-test. The result suggested that SoDriGa was a helpful study tool as it increased cognitive gains, motivation and built positive attitude towards learning mathematics while pupils’ mastery and retention of concepts being taught were improved. Thus, SoDriGa as an effective strategy may be adapted and implemented in schools to enhance mathematics’ instruction and further improve pupils’ performance.

Students in several sections of a theory of arithmetic course at Arizona State University were given instruction with a laboratory approach based on structural manipulative models. Their attitudes and achievement were compared with those of students receiving instruction with lectures and a textbook. The students who used the manipulative models had more favorable attitudes toward mathematics than the other group. However, they were not able to cover as much content and did not have as much measured achievement.

The current educational phenomenon is the large number of children with physical disabilities at the legs. One the reason is the environment that does not provide opportunities for them to grow and develop with their conditions. Conducive and pleasant educational environment for children with physical disabilities at the legs in grades 2 and 3 of elementary school can create a better psychological condition with a sense of enthusiasm and interest to improve academic understanding of mathematics learning. Kuda Baja or Wheelchair Playing and Learning presents as a form of author's effort to overcome these problems. The author prepare this article is using the method of literature study. So in this article Kuda Baja as a wheelchair at once includes learning media with a playing method. There are two-dimentional figure puzzle, stacking numbers, abacus, napier bar tables, and is equipped with a whiteboard and a smartphone stand.

Low Energy Electrons

A new field emission scanning transmission electron microscope has been constructed for the NSF HREM facility at Arizona State University. The microscope is to be used for studies of surfaces, and incorporates several surface-related features, including provision for analysis of secondary and Auger electrons; these electrons are collected through the objective lens from either side of the sample, using the parallelizing action of the magnetic field. This collimates all the low energy electrons, which spiral in the high magnetic field. Given an initial field Bi∼1T, and a final (parallelizing) field Bf∼0.01T, all electrons emerge into a cone of semi-angle θf≤6°. The main practical problem in the way of using this well collimated beam of low energy (0-2keV) electrons is that it is travelling along the path of the (100keV) probing electron beam. To collect and analyze them, they must be deflected off the beam path with minimal effect on the probe position.

Object Of Study

This research is motivated by the lack of interest of teachers in the use of props in the process of learning mathematics in elementary school. In accordance with the demands of the curriculum in 2013 and supported by the developed learning theory, learning mathematics is abstract object of study, students need an intermediary that props math-ematics, so that students can more easily understand the concepts that will be pre-sented, and in the end it can deliver students to solve mathematical problems, not only that proposed by the teacher but also the problems in life. The purpose of this study was to determine the interest of prospective elementary teachers on the use of props mathematics after getting lectures media and elementary mathematics learning model. By knowing the interest of prospective elementary teachers will be developed further realization of the state of the subject being studied. The method used is descriptive research, then the instruments used were questionnaires and interviews. The results of this study stated that the interest of prospective elementary teachers on the use of props after attending lectures media and elementary mathematics learning model is high over-all with a percentage of 76.70%.Keywords : Interest, Props Mathematics
