0238721 Morrison Dr. Morrison's career goal is to promote best practices in engineering, science and education by integrating novel air pollution research with undergraduate coursework. His goals are achieved by: applying best education practices to increase and improve student learning given limited in-class contact time, integrating research and course work through projects that introduce college, high school and non-traditional students to high-level experimental research while allowing students to generate publishable data, and probing the physics and chemistry of indoor air pollution, a poorly studied area of air quality research.Building on efforts to bring research to high school students, the PI is continuing to actively apply improved teaching practices. Specifically, Dr. Morrison has been selected to participate in the competitive "New Faculty Teaching Scholars" program of the University of Missouri system. This program seeks to improve student learning by challenging new teachers to incorporate the most successful teaching techniques in the classroom and coursework. Dr. Morrison has been active in indoor air pollution research for nearly eight years and, more recently, in developing new techniques for environmental analysis. In indoor environments, ozone reacts with surfaces, liberating volatile oxidized products into indoor air that are odorous, irritating and may reduce personal comfort and productivity, and even contribute to "Sick Building Syndrome". This project is well suited to the goal of acquainting students with research while improving our understanding of indoor pollution and exposure. Broader impact: Project results will influence product decision-making of manufacturers, while making recommendations to consumers regarding product usage, and providing public health officials with a database of emissions measurements and exposure estimates for use in recommending policy.

0238721 莫里森 莫里森博士的职业目标是通过将新颖的空气污染研究与本科课程相结合，促进工程，科学和教育的最佳实践。 他的目标通过以下方式实现：应用最佳教育实践，以增加和改善学生的学习有限的课堂接触时间，整合研究和课程工作，通过项目，介绍大学，高中和非传统的学生到高层次的实验研究，同时允许学生产生可验证的数据，并探讨室内空气污染的物理和化学，空气质量研究的一个研究不足的领域。在努力将研究带到高中学生的基础上，PI继续积极应用改进的教学实践。具体来说，莫里森博士已被选中参加密苏里州系统的竞争性“新教师教学学者”计划。该计划旨在通过挑战新教师将最成功的教学技术融入课堂和课程来改善学生的学习。莫里森博士从事室内空气污染研究近八年，最近又致力于开发环境分析的新技术。 在室内环境中，臭氧与表面发生反应，将挥发性氧化产物释放到室内空气中，这些产物具有气味，刺激性，并可能降低个人舒适度和生产力，甚至导致“病态建筑综合症”。这个项目非常适合学生的研究，同时提高我们对室内污染和暴露的理解的目标。更广泛的影响：项目结果将影响制造商的产品决策，同时就产品使用向消费者提出建议，并为公共卫生官员提供排放测量和接触估计数据库，用于建议政策。
