Patent number: 11727517Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for interactively developing an educational course and the materials for it using a backward design, or top-down, approach based on course objectives and course outcomes in one embodiment. Educators or other course creators are able to implement this design approach through an Integrated Design and Development Interface (IDDI). The IDDI guides course development by organizing course content in a relational database. The IDDI maps a plurality of course objectives to a plurality of course outcomes to create a course model. The IDDI uses the course model to generate and/or automatically user interfaces used by a course creator to input lower-level course information.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2020Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: PEARSON EDUCATION, INC.Inventors: Russell I. Lewinter, Amy Wood

Patent number: 11634672Abstract: This present invention relates to a pre-packaged set of disinfecting solution wipes used to prevent urinary tract and other infections, and reduce to bacterial growth. The wet wipes are stored in packages until needed, and are infused with a novel water and vinegar solution. The wipes can be applied multiple times a day to help eliminate odors, soothe skin, and reduce bacteria growth by neutralizing the pH of the user's skin. The wipes may also be used as a temporary bathing solution for those without immediate access to a shower or bathroom. The containers of the present invention are reusable, and feature a sealed lid to prevent the wet wipes from prematurely drying out.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2020Date of Patent: April 25, 2023Inventor: Amy Woods

Patent number: 10723990Abstract: A container, such as a disposable or single use bioreactor, optionally having one or more inlets and one or more outlets and a mixer associated with the container to cause mixing, dispersing, homogenizing and/or circulation of one or more ingredients contained or added to the container. The container includes a flexible baffle shaped and positioned within the container to improve mixing, particularly to improve low shear mixing. The baffle is positioned within the container so as to disrupt the vortex formed by the mixer, or prevent formation of a vortex. The baffle is shaped with both horizontal and vertical elements to enhance disruption of the vortex across the entire vessel height and provide homogeneous mixing throughout all operating volumes. In certain embodiments, the baffle is X-shaped.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2014Date of Patent: July 28, 2020Assignee: EMD Millipore CorporationInventors: Kara Der, Anne Hansen, James McSweeney, David Kraus, Jeffrey Pearsons, Amy Wood

Publication number: 20160244710Abstract: An aeration device, and containers or vessels incorporating the same. The aeration device can comprise a plurality of interchangeable aeration elements that can produce gas bubble of different sizes and deliver them to the contents of the container. Also disclosed are containers, such as a disposable or single-use container, optionally having one or more inlets and one or more outlets, an aeration device including a plurality of aeration elements, and a mixer to cause mixing, dispersing, homogenizing and/or circulation of one or more ingredients contained or added to the container. The container can be a bioreactors and the aeration device controls the dissolved gas concentration content of the bioreactor contents, thereby facilitating proper growth of cell cultures in the bioreactor.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 3, 2014Publication date: August 25, 2016Inventors: Amy Wood, Dave Kraus, Anne Hansen, Kara Der, James McSweeney
