Tina Saxowsky, PhDDepartment of ChemistryPersonalized Learning with Student Video Projects Dr. Tina Saxowsky (PLU Photo/Jenna Stoeber) A biochemist by training, Tina Saxowsky, Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry, is fascinated with how life operates at the molecular level. “When I started teaching, there were so many cool things that I wanted to teach the students about, but there was never enough time to tackle it all as a class. I started thinking about ways to get the students

errors. Prerequisite: CSCI 270 or consent of instructor. (4) CSCI 330 : Introduction to Artificial Intelligence An introduction to the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI), the theory and practice behind the development of software systems that perform tasks that normally require human intelligence. Covers effective AI techniques (e.g. neural networks, support vector machine, clustering), usage of machine learning tools, and their application to solve programs in different fields (e.g. business

Morken Center for Learning & Technology 04.28.2023 1:45pm – 5:00pm “Eureka!”–“I have found it” – Archimedes of Cyprus (264 B.C.) The problem. The idea. The moment. Eureka is the profound combination of all three. How do we change the world like Archimedes? Eureka moments. PLUreka was a unique student-led showcase that allowed Lutes to apply the principles of innovation and entrepreneurship to everyday experiences. The competition focused on teaming and preparing solutions to challenging

Bret Underwood, PhDPhysics DepartmentFlipped Learning for Student-Centered Class Time Bret Underwood, Assistant Professor of Physics, in class at PLU on Thursday, Sept. 17, 2015. (Photo: John Froschauer/PLU) Bret Underwood is an Assistant Professor in Physics, currently teaching a two-course Mathematical Physics sequence. The courses can be a bit technical, and he’s been spending a lot of time lately thinking about how to integrate active learning into a technical upper-level physics course. At

Student Wellbeing Toolkit Adapted from the University of Oregon’s Office of the Provost: Teaching Support and Innovation Wellbeing—as a topic, as a need, and as a call to action—has increasingly been part of the conversation in higher education. The far-reaching impacts of COVID19 have only made the role of wellbeing in learning more obvious. Instructors have increasingly become primary contacts for students experiencing crisis, burnout, or challenges that interfere with their academic success

this solution to games with more than two players remains an open challenge. This project explores this problem further by applying techniques similar to those used in two player games to three player Texas Hold’em, like the deep contrafactual regret algorithm, to develop a machine learning model from scratch for the game. The model is hosted within an interactive web application, allowing users to play against the model in the form of a bot. Through this platform, users can evaluate the model’s

nuclear spins are oriented by a magnetic field and then radio frequency waves are emitted that can tell how atoms within a molecule are connected, as well many as other types of information,” said Waldow. On a less technical level, this means that scientists and undergraduate students who will use the machine, will be able to learn about the polymer used to make a wing on a Boeing 787, Waldow added. Pharmaceutical companies use these devices. So can biologists trying to discern what chemicals are in

Learning TogetherPLU emphasizes the importance of student research and creative projects. From summer-long student-faculty research projects in the natural sciences to student-directed plays in theatre, these opportunities have many benefits and help students explore and learn more in-depth about an area of study or future career path that interests them, gain invaluable hands-on experience and organizational skills, and learn to balance independent and collaborative work. These research and
