Science project

Usually, the answering to a Scientists wrongdoing usually lies with their intentions or state of mind. If an invention intended to help the common good, then usually the scientist is not at fault if the project goes sour, especially if it goes wrong because of their funders. However, that instance can also vary depending on the individuals definition of helping is and what exactly do they mean by common good seeing that many “scientists” have preformed many…

young age. As a child Kaku strived to do amazing things, he wanted “to be a part of the effort to complete Einstein’s work, to unify the laws of physics into a single theory” (x). When I was younger I just wanted to watch television. Also for a science fair project he created “a 2.3-million-electron-volt betatron particle accelerator” with 20,000 times the magnetic field of the Earth (xi). Kaku shows futuristic ideology through questions such as, “can one use the laws of…

Having conducted a range of research projects at Caltech and UCSF, I have seen the beauty of trying to ask questions and find solutions in ingenious ways. At the hospital, I admire the doctor’s skills and knowledge that can immediate help their patients. Ultimately, I see a strong connection…

This paper examines the value and application of utilizing interdisciplinary connections (IDC) in instructing within the science classroom, in support of the standard set out in the Alabama Course of Study: Science (2015). There is some disagreement on whether the benefits of IDC instruction outweigh the potential shortfall in effective teaching of important scientific principles with a commensurate depth. Dickinson and Young (1998) voice concern that marginalizing disciplinary boundaries may…

learning science and to compare the results of urban and rural students in academic achievements. The researchers gave a hypothesis that there were no differences in the concrete operational stage of rural and urban students’ ability in solving the problems of Chemistry, Biology, and Physics in learning general science. Data was collected to review the application of Piaget’s Concrete Stage and the comparison of urban and rural students in academic achievement in learning general science.…

Isaac Newton is mainly known for his great achievements in science. But Isaac Newton was very involved with the Anglican Church and did support a lot of great things. We won't get to that just yet, let's start from the beginning where it all began. “On January 4, 1643, Isaac Newton was born in the hamlet of Woolsthorpe, Lincolnshire, England (using the "old" Julien calendar, Newton's birth date is sometimes displayed as December 25, 1642)” (A&E Networks Television). Newtons dad passed away three…

The focus of this research project encompasses the manner in which grain morphology (grain size and shape) pertains to liquid water existence. Especially through processes where the erosion of a sediment occurs through water or wind contact. The question guiding the project is as follows: How does the grain morphology of basaltic analogue sands pertain to liquid water existence? Reasons for choosing this topic area include my interest in space sciences and exploration, particularly in…

In a period when financial severity is at stake, we get ourselves debating on what is worth spending cash on and what isn't. Projects need to legitimize their presence and those projects that are seen as subordinate or pointless get the hatchet. Tragically, science -that doesn't have an immediate usefulness in practicality- is seen as an exercise in futility and waste of cash. In the United States, NASA can be an object of this level headed debate. We ought not to be investigating the close…

Science used to be a cause of wonder and curiosity from discovering what is beyond our planet to understanding the intricacies of nature. However, in recent years science has become a topic of dread for people. For some people, it is because they don’t understand the language that scientists use other times people believe that the research doesn’t affect them and are oblivious to how much science directly impacts their lives. There are still people who are genuinely curious about science and…

its functions because no animal completely and successfully represents human biology (“Animals in Science – The Failure of the Animal Model”). Primates have the most phylogenic similarities to humans, sharing 98% of our genes, though the results are still inaccurate (“Animals in Science – The Failure of the Animal Model”; M.P.H., “Why Animal Experimentation Doesn’t Work – Reason 3”; “Animals in Science – The Failure of the Animal Model”). A therapeutic antibody to monkeys, called anti-CD28…
