Living with Earthquakes in the Pacific Northwest
Robert Yeats · Oregon State University · 2004
In this expanded new edition of Living with Earthquakes, Robert Yeats, a leading authority on earthquakes in California and the Pacific Northwest, describes the threat posed by the Cascadia Subduction Zone, a great earthquake fault which runs for hundreds of miles offshore from British Columbia to northern California. New research reveals subtle movements on the deepest part of this fault every 14-15 months — building up strain toward the next major earthquake. Combining cutting-edge research with practical safety information, Living with Earthquakes: • introduces new information about the danger from faults beneath major Northwest cities: the Seattle Fault, Tacoma Fault, and Portland Hills Fault• explores such topics as earthquake forecasting, catastrophe insurance, tsunamis, soil liquefaction, and seismic waves in Northwest lakes caused by Alaskan earthquakes• reviews earthquake preparedness and disaster response in the aftermath of the 2001 Nisqually earthquake, the worst natural disaster in Washington's history• suggests actions that citizens can take to protect their families and homesAn essential guide for anyone interested in understanding earthquake science or in preparing for the next earthquake, this book is also a call to action. Vivid descriptions of recent disasters — including the great tsunami that swept down the Northwest coast in 1964, the 1993 Oregon earthquakes, and the 2001 Nisqually earthquake — underscore the urgent need for better earthquake planning and awareness.

You're Smarter Than You Think: Statistics
Safaa Dabagh · Safaa Dabagh · 2026
You're Smarter Than You Think: Statistics is a free, openly licensed introduction to statistics written for community college students and designed from the ground up for neurodivergent and anxious learners. Every section follows the same six-step rhythm (Read This First, Let's Talk About It, Now We Name It, Watch It Work, Your Turn, Check Your Voice), and every chapter opens with a Math Skills warm-up so a missing arithmetic step never derails a big idea. The book is organized around the student learning outcomes shared by community college statistics courses: describing data, estimating with confidence, and testing claims. It covers data and sampling, graphs, center and spread, probability, distributions, the Central Limit Theorem, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, two-sample tests, ANOVA, chi-square, and regression. Four free Technology Companions (R and RStudio, jamovi, StatCrunch, and the TI-84) carry every method into whatever software a course uses, each keyed chapter by chapter and packaged with ready-made datasets. Graphs, printable work space, answer keys, per-part formula sheets, and a cumulative final-exam prep are included throughout.

The Art of Polynomial Interpolation
Stuart Murphy · Pennsylvania State University
The inspiration for this text grew out of a simple question that emerged over a number of years of teaching math to Middle School, High School and College students. Practically speaking, what is the origin of a particular polynomial? So much time is spent analyzing, factoring, simplifying and graphing polynomials that it is easy to lose sight of the fact that polynomials have a wealth of practical uses. Exploring the techniques of interpolating data allows us to view the development and birth of a polynomial. This text is focused on laying a foundation for understanding and applying several common forms of polynomial interpolation. The principal goals of the text are: Breakdown the process of developing polynomials to demonstrate and give the student a feel for the process and meaning of developing estimates of the trend (s) a collection of data may represent. Introduce basic matrix algebra to assist students with understanding the process without getting bogged down in purely manual calculations. Some manual calculations have been included, however, to assist with understanding the concept. Assist students in building a basic foundation allowing them to add additional techniques, of which there are many, not covered in this text.

The Art and Science of Teaching Agriculture: Four Keys to Dynamic Learning
M. Susie Whittington; Rick Rudd; Jack Elliot · Virginia Tech Publishing · 2023
The Art and Science of Teaching Agriculture: Four Keys to Dynamic Learning is a methods of teaching book. Specifically, it is a collection of thoughts, best practices, strategies, and techniques for planning, delivering, and assessing teaching and learning. This resource is assembled from among the best teaching professors in agricultural communication, education, and leadership in America. They have narrated their favorite class sessions … sessions chosen with the goal of making us all better teachers. You will quickly grasp the four fundamental keys of solid, basic, time-tested formal and nonformal teaching: Laying the Foundation, Connecting with Students, Designing Instruction, and Applying Learning. These keys are shared with you through the unique voices of the authors to provide a multiperspective approach to teaching. The authors offer both secondary and postsecondary educators in both formal and nonformal educational environments the opportunity to build confidence in planning, delivering, and assessing the depths of the variables inherent in learning. You will acquire the foundation to teach so your learners can learn dynamically. Are you reviewing or adopting this book for a course?

Elementary Earth and Space Science Methods
Ted Neal · University of Iowa · 2019
We created this book to help you as both a college student and a future teacher. Dr. Ted Neal asked us to help him create this resource from the perspective of students who have taken Science Methods II–what would we want in a textbook for this course? With this in mind, we have gathered and created resources to help you better understand science and feel confident in your abilities as a future teacher. This book is divided into five parts which align with the Science Methods II course: Physics Space Science Earth Science Climate Science Course Materials and Pedagogy Within each part, the material is broken down into smaller chapters. Here you will find written explanations, video links, glossary terms, key takeaways, and practice quizzes to help you understand the material. This book is designed to be a flexible resource; use it as much or as little as you need throughout the course.

Inferential Statistics and Probability - A Holistic Approach
Maurice A. Geraghty · De Anza College
Holistic or Eastern tradition analysis is less concerned with the component parts of a problem, mechanism or phenomenon but rather with how this system operates as a whole, including its surrounding environment. I believe it is possible to teach the concept of Inferential Statistics holistically. This course material is a result of that inspiration, and it was designed to supplement, not replace, a traditional course textbook or workbook.
