It weaves together various essential topics from Statics and Strength of Materials to allow discussing structural design from the very beginning. The traditional content of these courses are reordered to make it convenient to cover rigid body equilibrium and extend it to deformable body mechanics.The e-book covers the most useful topics from both courses with computational support through MATLAB/Octave. The traditional approach for engineering content is emphasized and is rigorously supported through graphics and analysis. Prior knowledge of MATLAB is not necessary. Instructions for its use in context is provided and explained. It takes advantage of the numerical, symbolic, and graphical capability of MATLAB for effective problem solving. This computational ability provides a natural procedure for What if? exploration that is important for design. The book also emphasizes graphics to understand, learn, and explore design. The idea for this book, the organization, and the flow of content is original and new. The integration of computation, and the marriage of analytical and computational skills is a new valuable experience provided by this e-book. Most importantly the book is very interactive with respect to the code as it appears along with the analysis.14602023-08-22T13:43:46Z2023-08-22T19:11:33ZWriting Spaces at Oklahoma State University<img alt="Read more about Writing Spaces at Oklahoma State University" title="Writing Spaces at Oklahoma State University cover image" class="cover " width="225" height="321" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6OTMxMiwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--b13a1b3f7df63fb9ceaf84b96be7e9be306cb842/Writing%20Spaces%20at%20Oklahoma%20State%20University.jpg" />This resource focuses on the various processes involved in researching answers to various inquiry questions and building effective arguments within and outside academic contexts. The curriculum takes students through the processes of listening/summarizing, asking questions, characterizing scholarly debates, and entering those debates in order to meaningfully contribute to ongoing conversations.14472023-08-07T01:31:31Z2023-08-07T01:31:31ZTheory Fundamentals Workbook<img alt="Read more about Theory Fundamentals Workbook" title="Theory Fundamentals Workbook cover image" class="cover " width="606" height="782" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6OTIzOCwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--7c239168bc7a6229751a0c090a7d64fc7796da7f/Screenshot%202023-08-06%20at%208.24.18%20PM.png" />This workbook is a practical method for learning the rudiments of music, which are essential to a thorough understanding of music in general. Designed as a supplement to professional instruction rather than a manual for self instruction, the text is intentionally brief. The emphasis is on using practical exercises to develop fluency. Aural, vocal, and keyboard skills must be integrated into the study of music theory from the very beginning. I encourage all students, regardless of their principal instrument, to learn to hear, sing, and play on the piano everything that they do in theory. All exercises in this book should be completed thoroughly. Usually a sample will be completed in brackets for each exercise, as a demonstration. Fluency with these basic materials of music will be a great asset to any further musical endeavors. For students who need additional exercises, suggestions for further study will be given.14462023-07-25T03:37:40Z2023-07-25T03:38:57ZFoundations of Aural Skills<img alt="Read more about Foundations of Aural Skills" title="Foundations of Aural Skills cover image" class="cover " width="768" height="1024" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6Nzg3MiwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--708e6cd4c8b11efd55723ea4b95468c73c2b128e/Foundations-of-Aural-Skills-OER-Book-Cover1024_1.png" />Foundations of Aural Skills is a research-based, accessible, relevant, creative, inclusive, empowering textbook for teaching introductory aural skills. The first seven chapters provide thorough instruction in aural fundamentals, allowing students to build their foundations from a variety of starting points. The following chapters address the traditional tasks of sight-reading and dictation, but also improvisation, mimicking music you hear (“playback”), transcription, and ensemble skills. The final two chapters add some basic form- and chord-listening skills. Every section includes creative activities that learners can try out on their own or do in class. Embedded playlists for practicing listening skills include a diverse range of music that will connect with students’ preferences and allow them to experience music they haven’t worked with before. While the text is primarily designed for a first semester or year of instruction, it also includes some instruction on modulation, chromaticism, and mixed meter, and future additions/development will make these advanced applications more robust.14432023-07-13T20:20:01Z2024-03-18T13:36:35ZThe Tragedy of the Self<img alt="Read more about The Tragedy of the Self" title="The Tragedy of the Self cover image" class="cover " width="683" height="1023" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6Nzc4MiwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--008627f6d0ee27b074ef00d177da7e50d445df47/Coverfotocompressed-1.jpg" />Why do human beings interpret their overall experience in terms of selfhood? How was the notion and sense of self shaped at different times and in different cultures? What sort of problems or paradoxes did these constructions face? These lectures address these and related questions by sketching a roadmap of possible theoretical avenues for conceiving of the self, bringing to the foreground its soteriological implications, while also testing this theoretical outlook against insights offered by various disciplines. Exploring the cross-cultural spectrum of possible ways of conceiving of the self invites the more existential question of whether any of these possibilities might offer resources for dealing with the tragedies of today’s world, or maybe even saving it from some of them.14172023-05-02T17:46:27Z2023-08-31T14:10:29ZSupporting Secondary Teachers’ Critical Disciplinary Literacies<img alt="Read more about Supporting Secondary Teachers’ Critical Disciplinary Literacies" title="Supporting Secondary Teachers’ Critical Disciplinary Literacies cover image" class="cover " width="768" height="994" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NjU0NSwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--dfcc76d72a0bd3f6c59f0db349eefdf0134f5596/criticaldisciplinaryliteracies-cover-768x994.png" />Co-created with students in the course EDUC 395: Teaching Disciplinary Literacy and supported by CDL experts, this textbook offers accessible, research-based, multidisciplinary CDL strategies ready for implementation in secondary classrooms.13862023-04-03T14:18:46Z2024-03-12T17:24:52ZConversaciones Corrientes: Temas de Cultura y Sociedad<img alt="Read more about Conversaciones Corrientes: Temas de Cultura y Sociedad" title="Conversaciones Corrientes: Temas de Cultura y Sociedad cover image" class="cover " width="709" height="1024" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NDY2NSwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--d9821eddab36df03c6ea4bc4170ba40995e0844f/Conversaciones-Corrientes-Cover-900x1300-1-709x1024.png" />This book is designed to facilitate conversation in Spanish among intermediate and post-intermediate learners of Spanish.
