Direct Modeling of Prosody: An Overview of Applications in Automatic Speech Processing
We describe a direct modeling approach to using prosody in various speech technology tasks. Prosodic features are extracted directly from the speech signal and from the output of an automatic speech recognizer.

Implementation variation and fidelity in an inquiry science program: An analysis of GLOBE data reporting patterns
We examined associations among teachers’ responses to survey items to patterns in GLOBE data reporting to develop hypotheses about important contextual factors related to program implementation. Implications for the study of science inquiry programs are discussed.

A National Look at Children and Families Entering Early Intervention
The National Early Intervention Longitudinal Study (NEILS) is the first study of Part C of the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) early intervention system with a nationally representative sample of infants and toddlers with disabilities. This article presents national estimates of characteristics of infants and toddlers and their families at the time they entered…
