    The Digital Student In order to understand the ways in which I plan to use the new ideas and strategies I have gained in the “Digital Student” course, you must first understand my teaching placements. Each school day I teach in two vastly different settings. In the morning I teach at an urban high school. We have roughly twelve hundred and fifty students. At my high school, we face all of the challenges you find in an urban setting. Sixty-one percent of our students are economically challenged

    Poverty has long been a consistent characteristic in crime. Numerous theories like Social Disorganization, Labeling Theory, and Strain Theory have been created to try to explain the connection between poverty and crime.

    article was quite statistically focused, which contributed to it being somewhat difficult to read. I admit, I didn’t fully understand all of the tables, relating the variables of each group study. However, the results were well stated, making the experiment more accessible to people that are less statistically inclined. I thought the article, even though it was quite dense, was an appropriate length and stayed well within the realm of relevant information. I could not honestly recommend this article

    In this experimental lab, I previously stated that I would observe the participants and their heart rates in their stationed environment. The results of the lab concluded as we successfully predicted. The environment individuals surround themselves does impact heart rate. Participants in the study who were placed in the control environment showed an average heart rate of 60-70 bpm. The participants in the study who were placed in the experimental group showed an increase in heart rate of about

    Bluetongue disease is a severe haemorrhagic disease affecting ruminants, mainly sheep, which is caused by the Bluetongue virus (BTV). The Bluetongue virus serotype 8 (BTV-8) strain has the ability to transmit transplacentally in pregnant ruminants, a characteristic rarely reported in other serotypes. Prior to the emergence of BTV-8 in Europe in 2006, other serotypes of BTV have been present in Europe for more than ten years but there has been no evidence of transplacental transmission in these strains

    The main purpose of the research performed by Maurice Kernan, David Cowan, and Charles Zuker, is to determine which specific genes are linked with mechanotransduction. In order to proceed with any experimentation, a model for the research was chosen to be Drosophila since the adults are found to have cuticular mechanosensory organs that allow for tractable genetic and behavioral analysis. The hypothesis formulated was that if Drosophila with X-linked mutations were screened, then the effects and

    I believe that animal testing is wrong because, the animals are treated inhumanely. Humans have no right to use animals like they are objects that can just be thrown away like they do not matter. These experiments result in extreme and torturous pain. Animals are brought into laboratories and tested on against their will. An estimate of almost twenty-six million animals is used every year in the United States for scientific and commercial testing. Animals are used to check the safety of product,

    Australian Curriculum: Science content descriptions. If students were to replicate my scientific investigation, they could develop patience as the experiment involves checking it every 15 minutes for an hour. If completing multiple trials, students can develop dedication considering it may take most of a day to complete these trials. Furthermore, this experiment can allow students to become more observant and organised as it requires accuracy and bowls can be easily mixed up. Bowls with salt and sugar

    and discomfort when they participate in experimental treatment. Many dilemmas arise when trying to determine the level where an experimental treatment becomes harmful. In the past, researchers conducted unethical experiments without the subjects’ informed consent. They conducted experiments on human subjects knowing the high potential for harm. Participants received harmful substances without their knowledge and did not receive treatment (Grove, Gray, & Burns, 2015). Researchers coerced, misinformed

    According to Lovaas (1987) and Carr & Durand (1985), early behavioral treatments was highly designed. As the field has progressed, behavioral treatments had suffered a number of changes to improve instructional results and improve their skills. One alternative change had been the way of improvement of performances that are more naturalistic and child-centered. According to Lovaas (1987), children with autism shows lack of social communication, absent or abnormal speech, intellectual disabilities
