Applications of learning theory to human-bear conflict: the efficacy of aversive conditioning and conditioned taste aversion
DownloadSpring 2011
I tested the efficacy of aversive conditioning (AC) and conditioned taste aversion (CTA) on American black bears (Ursus americanus) in Whistler, British Columbia. Black bears subjected to 3-5 day AC programs responded by increasing their wariness toward humans, while control bears habituated. ...

Authoring Themselves as Mathematical Learners: Students' Experiences of Learning to Learn High School Mathematics
DownloadSpring 2014
High school mathematics students often complete homework and study for unit tests without support to consider how these actions could contribute to their mathematical learning. However, students can, through the process of learning to learn mathematics, to bring into view how they learn...

Aversive conditioning on horse back: A management alternative for grassland systems threatened by sedentary elk populations
DownloadFall 2009
Loss of migratory behaviour in ungulates has been observed worldwide and invites new tools for managing the habitat degradation that results from these sedentary populations. We assessed use of aversive conditioning on horseback as a means of reducing grazing pressure and restoring migratory...
