    Description/Abstract:
    Hypothesis: Electroencephalography and Artificial Neural Networks can be combined to read in a user’s EEG-based brain activity and then to correctly classify that activity. Goal: This research project aims to combine EEG (electroencephalography) and ANNs (artificial neural networks) by reading in a user's EEG-based brain activity and using an ANN to correctly classify that activity. This specific application aims to classify EEG data of a user being presented with digits (0-9) and letters (A-J). Process: The project goals are accomplished by building an EEG headset capable of collecting data, generating a labeled dataset (EEG activity is the data, character being presented is the label), and creating ANNs to analyze the labeled dataset. Results: The EEG headset based on the UltraCortex III from OpenBCI was successfully built. A data collection protocol was created, programs were coded to facilitate this data collection, and the dataset was successfully generated (3160 samples total, 158 samples/character). Several ANNs were created, and these networks were capable of learning and of overfitting on the data, but the classification on test data did not reach accuracy levels beyond chance (more time needs to be devoted in trying different networks and manipulating the data). Future work: Tasks which are recommended for continuing this project include adjusting network parameters of existing CNNs, trying a wider variety of neural network architectures, trying data mining techniques, extracting more features in different ways from the existing data, collecting more digit and letter EEG data, altering data collection process.

    Description/Abstract:
    Abstract Student engagement is an important part of an effective and positive classroom. With research we will explore ways to create a more engaged learning environment. Through a progressive democratic curriculum we can create a space where the students interests and opinions are valued and implemented into the course work. Our curriculum seeks to prepare teachers with effective ways to embrace democracy and prepare them to manage and run an effective and fun classroom, where the voice of the student is heard, and students are fully engaged.

    Student Work
    Description/Abstract:
    A strong implementation of zero-tolerance policy pushes students out of the classroom and into the world of criminal offense. Our curriculum will address these issues by equipping teachers and students alike to promote student voice in the classroom. Through bringing knowledge and creating awareness to race, class, gender, and sexuality, students will be enabled to furthermore act in a political manner for social justice.

    Description/Abstract:
    Abstract The aim of this project is to address the issue of teacher attrition and lack of creativity in the classroom by involving teachers, students and members in the community through art education. The research will include mutually respectful dialogue, multicultural broad participation, flexible art forms that induce creativity, and empathetic interaction that embrace progressive values. This project will boost motivation of teachers and their job satisfaction hence leading to better teacher retention.

    Student Work
    Description/Abstract:
    Abstract Textbook ways of learning have been taught in the classroom for many years, often excluding diverse students and their unique experiences. Through personal experience in the classroom, we have considered the lack of authentic experiences and the diverse cultures and aim to combine these two concepts through the following research. We propose a curriculum that involves creating a collaborative project between two diverse student populated schools to make real connections and learn to appreciate the differences between each other.

    Description/Abstract:
    This is a video recording of the RDAP webinar “Using APIs for Non-Programmers” held on April 22, 2020 @ 1:00 pm EST as part of the RDAP Town Hall “Ask Me Anything” series webinar. Webinar Description: Application programming interfaces -- "APIs" -- are a key way that systems make functionality and detailed information available. Long available only to software developers, modern APIs are quite accessible to the human user, even those with no programming skills! This webinar will cover: - why you might want to access APIs - how to formulate API requests using a web browser - how to do the same using other freely available tools - how to interpret and work with responses - how to translate API documentation to API requests - examples of APIs drawn from repository, preprint, and identifier systems - next steps to crawling information from APIs The webinar is specifically targeted at those working in libraries and library-like settings, who may want or even need to access APIs, but who have no programming or command line experience. Greg Janée is director of the Data Curation Program at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and a certified Carpentry instructor. He's been a researcher and developer in the areas of digital libraries and digital preservation for over twenty years. As a software developer, most recently he was the principal developer of the California Digital Library's EZID persistent identifier service; earlier, he was the principal developer of UCSB's Alexandria Digital Library, Gazetteer Protocol, and related technologies

    Description/Abstract:
    This video is the recording of the fourth webinar RDAP “Ask me Anything” town hall series entitled “Data Management for GIS projects”, held on February 26, 2020. It was jointly sponsored by RDAP and the University Consortium for Geographic Information Science (UCGIS). UCGIS was host this webinar. Webinar Description: With federal and other funding agencies wanting to ensure long term access to research output, data management planning for GIS projects has great importance. This webinar shares insight on lessons learned through GIS projects and highlights best practices for different steps in project exploration and creation. Also in this webinar, a geology researcher using GIS techniques and collecting geospatial data will explain how she communicated her use of best practices through a data management plan for a successfully funded NSF grant. Attendees will understand the importance of well-written data management plans, how to put those plans into action through implementing data management planning and reproducible research best practices, and how library engagement can help with data management planning. Presenters: Amy Koshoffer, University of Cincinnati; Jennifer Latessa, University of Cincinnati; and Paula Figueiredo, North Carolina State University Slide deck is also included. About UC–GIS: The University Consortium for Geographic Information Science (UCGIS) is a non-profit organization that creates and supports communities of practice for GIScience research, education, and policy endeavors in higher education and with allied institutions. We are the professional hub for the academic GIS community in the United States, with partnerships extending this capacity abroad.
