A historical lens looked at key leaders on Operation Thursday, Burma (1943); Son Tay Raid, Vietnam (1970); and Desert Storm, Iraq (1990). An examination of the problem-solving styles from participants in Operation Eagle Claw, Iran (1980), including present members assigned to the USSOCOM, was conducted. The Kirton Adaption-Innovation Inventory (KAI) was used to determine individual problemsolving preferences on a continuum, reflecting adaption or innovation. The goal of this study was to add to the extant knowledge of the characteristics that make special operators special, and how special operators solve problems.

Show moreThe purpose of this study was to investigate if the architectural design factors affected usability of Navy Knowledge Online (NKO) technology along with the user dissatisfaction associated through restricted achievements of online education and training. In this study, attitudes, satisfaction, obstacles, and providers' demographics were also analyzed. Medical providers were using NKO overseas, on a ship, and when deployed. Medical providers recognized themselves as knowledgeable as their peers when it comes to operating NKO. Providers' attitudes toward NKO were pretentious when the learning portal did not operate correctly. In addition, the majority of the respondents agreed they were not satisfied with using NKO as a learning portal. Additionally, individuals in certain age groups found their age did influence their attitude toward the use of NKO. The addition of anxieties caused by technology glitches, computer breakdowns, lost data or files, and program errors have overwhelmed the United States Navy medical providers. To better understand the human activities with technological issues, further exploration is required to discover or confirm the relationships among the variables utilizing multiple qualitative data sources. Ethnographic and qualitative research will provide keen analytical tools to capture and understand the complex and vibrant realities in which medical providers experience education in such dynamic times.

UD is a term used to describe the design of products to be accessible by all. Instructors, both full and part-time, across the state of Florida were surveyed to determine the current usage of UD in the design of courses as well as the factors that most influence their decision to utilize UD. The results of the study indicated that a large portion of instructors currently utilize UD to at least a moderate extent within the state. The study also indicated that increasing diversity and changing teaching methods were the greatest determining factors in whether UD was currently being utilized.

Anna Letitia's "A Summer Evening's Meditation" exhibits a feminine poetics of space that portrays not only the poetic speaker but also the universe itself as distinctly feminine and feminist. This poetics genders the cosmos and permits the poetic speaker to express her longing to explore the universe just as it allows Barbauld to engage in the scientific discourse of astronomy.

Show moreAnna Letitia's "A Summer Evening's Meditation" exhibits a feminine poetics of space that portrays not only the poetic speaker but also the universe itself as distinctly feminine and feminist. This poetics genders the cosmos and permits the poetic speaker to express her longing to explore the universe just as it allows Barbauld to engage in the scientific discourse of astronomy. The speaker herself fulfills her longing as she exercises agency to explore and recreate space in terms of what Elizabeth Grosz identifies as a "freedom from" constraint or oppression and a "freedom to" respond with action (140). The poem's embracing "freedom to" is a radical move that eliminates the woman's need to attain freedom from an oppressor and instead urges her to perform her freedom through agentic action. Agency, in this sense, produces an embodied female subject and empowered female voice able to contribute to ways of knowing and being. As such, the action of "Meditation" functions metaphorically as a critique of eighteenth-century British culture that reinforced male control over scientific discovery, knowledge production, and agency. Reading Barbauld's "Meditation" through Groszean feminist theory re-envisions the poem as an argument for female freedom in its fullest, freest sense.
