Joint reduction is a key skill and is a core competency for orthopedic surgeons deploying as part of a trauma team. Current training options are limited to classroom instruction on uninjured persons due to lack of a suitable training simulator. The first

Graspable Math Activities is web application that middle and high school students use on laptops and tablets to practice algebra and receive instantaneous feedback. Activities are based on an algebra notation technology that can promote procedural fluency while allowing students to focus on strategy and the connection between concepts and procedures. The team will produce a website that will inclu ...

Thegoal is to develop asoftwaretool that implementsa novelapproach applicableto fitgeneral pharmacologic, toxicology, or other biomedical data, that mayexhibita non-monotonic dose-responserelationship for which thecurrent parametricmodels fail. Thesoftwareexplores dose-responserelationships using both monotonicand non-monotonicmodels,and estimates theassociated doseresponsecurves,which can further ...

Researchers will conduct a pilot study with a socio-economically and diverse sample of at least 500 high school students who will test the prototype ROI tool. The researchers will examine the feasibility and usability of the prototype, whether ROI information increases search and discovery for educational opportunities; whether having ROI information increases the likelihood of click-through rates ...

The team will develop a prototype of Collaborate, a traditional board game for use in high school and college level computer science courses. Gameplay mechanics will center on strategy and cooperation with a whole class over several weeks. Content will focus on foundational computer science topics, such user interface design, quality assurance, deploying resources, managing risk, and adjusting to ...

Ensuring military field water supplies are safe for human consumption is of critical importance to the United States Armed Forces. However, despite the need to routinely monitor water supplies the availability of field-ready tests is limited. In 2019 the

Military personnel have endured over 1700 major limb amputations from the current conflicts alone. Since the military population is young and active, there is an increased demand for effective and expedient prosthetic devices. This requires an efficient p

Over 50,000 American warfighters had been wounded in action in Operations Iraqi and Enduring Freedom (OIF/OEF) with over 1,500 requiring major limb amputations. Warfighters and first responders must have proper tools for pain management during prolonged

The aim of this proposal is to develop an advanced blood simulant to replace current simulants used in combat medical training. A successful blood simulant will exhibit a caking/clotting response in the presence of simulated hemostatic agents while accur
