Rare Earth hypothesis

Westfield. Where different species of bird are located, depends on the environment. An environment can have a completely different habitat than another environment. Because of this, we suspect birds to favor one habitat over the other. From our hypothesis, we believe birds are going to be more numerous by the Westfield River than the wetland and will be more active during the morning. Question Where are birds going to be most commonly spotted at walking distance from Westfield State…

The problem this study is addressing is that in the physics classroom of a suburban high school, the teacher has access to enough laptop computers for every student to be able to use one, but does not use them because he does not know how to incorporate them into instruction or if they will be helpful in increasing learning. The purpose of this study is to find out if incorporating the laptops in a one to one computer based instruction will increase student achievement and motivation. The…

Article Review Traditionally, professional development for teachers has been provided in the form of training sessions, consultants, and observation cycles conducted by a master/mentor teacher. Teachers can often have negative reactions to this type of observation model, as it can make them feel like someone is coming in to tell them what is wrong with their practice. Alternatively, peer observation is a newly emerging form of professional development, where two teachers of similar skill level…

determine the function of the behavior, educators go through the FBA process. This process can be broken into components known as the following: identify and define the behavior, plan the assessment, collect information/data, analyze data, and compose a hypothesis statement. Generally after the FBA process is completed, they start a Behavior intervention plan. One can see that the report on Jason strictly follows this format. For example, the facts given in the “General Information” section is…

Impacts of Water Bottle Cycle on Biodiversity Water Bottle Cycle is a critical issue on the biodiversity because of its impacts on it. It is obvious that water bottle cycle is the main cause of different pollutions. • Extraction of oil from the Earth causes both water and air pollution • Refinement of oil caused air pollution because the refinement takes place in the industries or factories • Transportation of water bottles causes air pollution due to the burning of fuels in an engine that…

in which these forms or ideas are imperfectly replicated. (Plato 15) After defining the nature of “science”, the trivial and missing parts are acquired easily through clear characteristic analysis. Plato’s philosophy inspired us to implement the hypothesis to our sensible world after observation and therefore identify the objects in order to scratch the picture in…

The Stroop effect by John Ridley was done in the year of (1935). The experiment tested the interference in serial verbal reactions. Frank H Durgin (2000) suggested that the Stroop effect was a way to prove that humans cannot multitask. Durgin also states that habit and strength are not responsible for the delay in reaction time. The processing speed theory states that there is an interference when a participant names black inked colors and when they name colors that are printed in different…

My STEAM Expo experiment was testing which hamster food gives hamsters the most energy to hamsters. I tested three store brand foods: Carefresh Complete, Sunseed, and Nibble Rings. I also tested one that I made based off of the research that I did prior to the experiment. I thought that this project was perfect for my three hamsters, because they are all very tired and lazy. I also think that other people can use my type of food so that their hamsters can be energetic, too. I observed the…

(1) What is the hypothesis of this paper and where did you find it? The hypothesis of this paper predicts if low-intensity electric and magnetic fields (EMF) are a method of sensory transduction, then it is expected that that EMF can evoke brain potentials like other sensory modalities. This hypothesis can be found at the end of the Abstract and at the end of the second to last paragraph in the Introduction. (2) Is the writer’s voice passive or active and does he appear in the text? If the…

areas, (Nores et al., 2013). The primary pollinator of bougainvilleas is the bee, but other weather factors such as wind can affect pollination in bougainvilleas. The hypothesis of this experiment is that the weather in which a bougainvillea is, will affect how many pollinators the plant will encounter on a given day. The null hypothesis is that the weather has no effect on the amount of pollinators that visit the bougainvillea encounters. The reason these questions are important is because they…
