their research and have a deep understanding about their planet, they will present their information. Students are able to present their findings through different formats including: making a presentation using Google Slides or Prezi, writing a paper using Google Docs, or creating a video using iMovie. By using one of these various means of representation students are able to express and communicate their understanding whichever way they prefer. Engagement As students complete their research…

When reviewing nursing literature, it is very easy to understand why ethics is vital to any reliable research being obtained. This is because, as we have seen throughout history, in order to keep advancing in medical knowledge, new ideas must be tried and risks taken because of the potential these discoveries have to change patients’ lives. However, in order for these new discoveries to be made, not only must there be a researcher planning the study, but there also must be a group of people…

through the research process. Boards, like the Institutional Review Board (IRB), put in place a set of criteria to ensure the protection of people participating in research, particularly those from vulnerable groups. However, where lies the balance between conducting unbiased enlightening research and protecting the dependent? Describing a group as vulnerable is not a given, but rather, is up for debate. Predetermining a group as being vulnerable can bias the inquiry and discourage research…

death to the rejection of a three-year long study due to a minor discrepancy; where is the line drawn between ethical and unethical conduct? Both the IRB (Institutional Review Boards) and REB (Research Ethics Boards) have done well to establish a set of common guidelines when it comes to conducting research; however, these agencies hold a surplus of power and lack a sense of researcher to agency equality within the system’s process. While these two agencies have established a strong ethical…

Inside the Michigan Research Community I. Introduction to MRC and Learning Communities As a large public institution, the University of Michigan can be very overwhelming for some students. However, the University of Michigan does a great job of creating small communities for students with similar backgrounds, identities, or interests. One of the small learning communities at the University of Michigan is the Michigan Research Community, otherwise known as MRC. In MRC, all of the individuals…

Though the benefits of the research enterprise far outweigh the costs, many in the field recognize that there are improvements that would make the system more efficient and cost-effective. The federal government assumes a great deal of the administrative and financial burden of research in America; being accountable to taxpayers and American citizens in this regard requires continuous analysis of policies and procedures to ensure adequate stewardship of public trust. Towards this agenda, three…

Research Archaeologists are issued many tasks. Typically a research archaeologist works on examining and and analyzing different historical finds, such as; bones, pottery, tombs, etc. An archaeologist is also required manage and protect archaeological sites and finds. Most archaeologists have a specific field of study, such as geographic study (e.g. focusing only on Brazilian extinct cultures), study of a particular time period (e.g. Byzantine era), or studying specific objects (e.g. remains of…

is the credibility of the people involve in the project. While working on her MBA, she created a network of well-educated people, one to help her develop the business, another one, to research the science of freezing egg and the medical protocols and a last team to be on top any technological and scientific development for the company. She also established agreements with clinics to facilitate the process and had exclusive agreements with Biogenic, the main producer of Medicult and partner-up…

power grids. In brief, my research concerns fundamental engineering and economic challenges facing our rapidly evolving electricity smart grid. The electricity industry is experiencing vast changes. Generation and utilization of power energy in the future will be not the same as today. More alternative sources of energy, for example, the wind and the sun will necessitate small-scale distributed generation sources, which are not as uniform as is currently the case. Research in the field of…
