Fragments of Life: Textile Art by Barbara Goldberg
Barbara Goldberg (1931 - 2016) was a textile artist, devoted teacher, tireless advocate for fiber art, and longtime Professor in Textile Design and Fiber Arts at UMass Dartmouth. To celebrate her art, teaching and life, the College of Visual & Performing Arts at UMass Dartmouth and the Goldberg family are sponsoring this retrospective exhibition of her textile art. This show exhibits highlights of her work, including two life-size, indigo-dyed shibori self-portraits. "In Fragments of Life, work created by Barbara Goldberg during her five-decade career as an artist is displayed together for the first time. Her remarkable body of work was created through experimentation, research, travel, and interaction with colleagues and students. Barbara taught in many educational institutions and arts centers, culminating with her position as Professor of Textile Design and Fiber Arts at UMass Dartmouth. A tireless advocate for her students and for the field of fiber art, Barbara was involved with many textile organizations. She researched the history and culture of textiles and surface design techniques employed throughout the world, with an emphasis on indigo dyeing and shibori. The selected works, drawn from the entire span of her career from the 1960s to the 2000s, allow those who knew Barbara to remember her and others to meet her for the first time." Catherine Weller and Noelle Foye, Curators Thanks to Arthur Goldberg and the Family of Barbara Goldberg, Allison Cywin, Jessica Fernandes Gomes, Susan Hamlet, Charlotte Hamlin, David Klamen, Dietmar Winkler, Catherine Weller, Noelle Foye and many others for making this exhibition and catalog possible. The event made possible in part through the generous support of the UMass Dartmouth Alumni Association

Doctor of Philosophy Dissertation Defense by: Longtao Xu
Topic: Photonic Integrated Circuit Technologies for Microwave Photonic Links Location: Lester W. Cory Conference Room, Science & Engineering Building (SENG), Room 213A ABSTRACT: Radar frontend transports and frequency down converts antenna signals. Traditional electronic frontends are built on transistors and diodes. But they are sensitive to electromagnetic interferences and very nonlinear resulting in limited system spurious free dynamic range (SFDR). Thus, it is desirable to replace the electronics with high dynamic range RF photonic links. In this work, we investigate photonic integrated circuit technologies for high dynamic range integrated RF photonic frontends. We proposed the concept of integrated RF/photonic radar frontends, where an entire RF photonic link is monolithically integrated on a photonic integrate circuit (PIC). The integrated RF photonic link employs optical phase modulation and linear phase demodulation by an Attenuation Counter Propagating Optical Phase Locked Loop (ACP-OPLL). The link achieves frequency down-conversion either by exploiting nonlinear phase modulation inside quantum well phase modulators or by optical sampling. It has the potential to outperform electronics. In addition, photonic integration provides small footprint, lightweight, high power efficiency, and low cost.

Online Teaching and Learning Strategies
In this course, we will introduce you to current research and best practices for online teaching as well as showcase examples of successful teaching strategies for the online environment. Throughout the course you will work both independently and collaboratively with your peers to gain valuable online course transition experience and develop your own strategies for online teaching and learning. As a participant, you will learn both pedagogical aspects of teaching online as well as how to use and incorporate many of the tools available in the myCourses Learning Management System used at UMassD. The ultimate goal of the course is to have you begin planning, organizing, and building the online course you eventually plan to teach. In addition, this course will introduce you to techniques that will teach you how to self-assess course site design to ensure student ease of access to course content and to facilitate more streamlined student learning and increase retention.
