Cold Weather Concreting01:27

Cold Weather Concreting

When freshly poured concrete is exposed to freezing temperatures before it has set, the water within the concrete can freeze. This expansion disrupts the setting process, delays chemical reactions necessary for hardening, and increases the volume of pores within the hardened concrete, which weakens its overall structure. If the concrete manages to reach an appreciable strength before it freezes, the damage can be somewhat mitigated.
To counteract the negative impacts of cold weather, ensuring...
Purposive Learning01:22

Purposive Learning

E. C. Tolman emphasized the purposiveness of behavior — the idea that much of our behavior is goal-directed. For instance, employees who aim for a promotion work diligently to meet their targets. Tolman argued that when classical conditioning and operant conditioning occur, the organism acquires certain expectations. In classical conditioning, a child might fear a dog because they expect it to bite. In operant conditioning, a person might consistently work overtime because they expect a bonus...

Masonry in Cold and Hot Weather Conditions

In cold weather, masonry construction requires specific precautions to ensure mortar does not freeze before curing, as this can significantly weaken its strength and watertightness. Mortar temperature should be maintained between 60°F and 80°F to support proper hydration and curing. Below 40°F, mortar water must be heated, but should not exceed 120°F as high temperatures can reduce mortar's compressive and bond strength.
Other key practices include keeping masonry units and sand dry and...
Cognitive Learning01:21

Cognitive Learning

Cognitive learning is based on purposive behavior, incidental learning, and insight learning.
E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...
Observational Learning01:12

Observational Learning

Albert Bandura's observational learning, also known as imitation or modeling, occurs when a person observes and imitates another's behavior. It is a quicker process than operant conditioning. A well-known example is the Bobo doll study, where children who saw an adult acting aggressively towards the doll were more likely to act aggressively when left alone, compared to those who observed a nonaggressive adult. Many psychologists view observational learning as a form of latent learning because...
Creative Thinking01:25

Creative Thinking

Creative thinking encompasses innovative and unconventional methods for addressing challenges, often leading to groundbreaking solutions. Instead of focusing solely on enhancing existing systems, such as increasing smartphone battery capacity, creative thinking might inspire advancements like energy-efficient batteries or processors that minimize power consumption. This multidimensional approach underscores the importance of exploring novel pathways to innovation.
Divergent thinking is the...

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Online Learning Technologies

Background:

  • Record-breaking ice storms can disrupt academic schedules.
  • Maintaining educational continuity during extreme weather events is challenging for nursing programs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the implementation of a virtual learning experience for accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) students.
  • To maintain academic progression despite a 5-day school closure due to severe weather.

Main Methods:

  • Leveraged existing university technology, smartphones, laptops, eBooks, and internet resources.
  • Transitioned students from hazardous travel to remote virtual classes and clinicals.
  • Developed a comprehensive virtual learning environment to ensure curriculum delivery.

Main Results:

  • Accelerated BSN students remained on schedule during a 5-day school closure.
  • Virtual classes and clinicals were successfully delivered, ensuring student engagement.
  • The virtual experience effectively replaced traditional in-person instruction.

Conclusions:

  • Virtual learning strategies can ensure academic continuity for nursing students during unforeseen disruptions.
  • The integration of accessible technology is crucial for remote nursing education.
  • This model provides a framework for other institutions facing similar challenges.
