Aromic Units, Why We Need Them and How They Work

Quantum Chemistry is usually carried out using Atomic Units, so a careful discussion of these units is warranted.

Improving Automaticity with Basic Addition Facts: Do Taped Problems Work Faster Than Cover, Copy, Compare?

This small pilot study compared the effectiveness of two interventions to improve automaticity with basic addition facts: Taped Problems (TP) and Cover, Copy, Compare (CCC), in students aged 6-10. Automaticity was measured using Mathematics Curriculum-Based Measurement (M-CBM) at pretest, after 10 days, and after 20 days of intervention. Our hypothesis was that the TP group will gain higher levels of automaticity more quickly than the CCC and control groups. However, when gain scores were compared, no significant differences were found between groups. Limitations to the study include low treatment integrity and a short duration of intervention.

Line Integrals and Work in Thermodynamics

This paper considers line integration in the context of elementary thermodynamics, ending with irreversible to reversible work integrations (employing, in part, L'Hopital's rule).
