Gustavo Oliveira Coutinho, 4º ano Class: 4BTEL Innovate Tesla: the resurgence of Nikola Tesla from oblivion to spotlight Introduction Nikola Tesla is one of the most controversial figures on science. While many judged him simply as a mad scientist, few were able to see how he was ahead of his own time, providing the theoretical and practical foundation to several modern equipments. We, as a society, not only owe Tesla for the AC (alternating current) electric system of supply, but…

human sciences, and the tendencies to subsume it within the larger framework of the natural sciences. In his Introduction to the Human Sciences, he explicates the distinction between the natural and the human sciences with the objective to establish, for the latter, a theoretical and methodological foundation that is independent from the natural sciences. To do this, he identifies the distinction between the natural and human sciences to rest primarily upon the objectives of the two sciences.…

fields of science and literature within the modern age is irrefutably that of E.O Wilson’s Consilience: The Unity of Knowledge. Whilst being a biologist, with a speciality in myrmecology, his discussion of methods to unite the sciences, social sciences, and humanities – to describe the synthesis of knowledge across all fields has been hugely influential in literary criticism and theory. Wilson in Consilience argues for “the unification of all knowledge” reaching further in his project of…

Tweed, A, in “ Designing Effective Science Instruction”, Science teachers should be more effective when planning and implementing science content by focusing on some important strategies in order to provide students with meaningful opportunities and refine their science understandings in authentic contexts. One of these important strategies is an engaging student in scientific inquiry. Many science educators think that inquiry-based instruction leads to better science understandings and…

glamorizing different types of professional careers. Be it a police officer to an attorney, to what I will be discussing today, science and/or scientist. The media i.e. TV and movies, makes these careers look so appealing, which is so not what the career is really. Science and scientist are often portrayed in the media to be something in the realms of the science in Jurassic Park and scientist are usually older men in white long coats with glasses and crazy white hair like the Professor…

Considering the Development and Translation of New Terms Technology continues to grow and develop at exponential rates, new discoveries are being made in the sciences, entrepreneurs birth new inventions and ways of doing business, artists create new techniques.... While each of these situations is exciting and brings wonderful advances to our world, they also create challenges in language and language translation. Namely, there are often no words in our present lexicon to describe the new…

Research Paper The purpose of my project, the ultimate question for my project, was “How does the amount of leavening used in cupcake affect it?” How my mind conceived my particular project is a different matter. I came up with my project very simply; I didn’t use any website to help me, ask anyone at all actually. I came with my project when people in my 7th science class were brainstorming ideas, me particularly stumped, until I heard the word baking. That one word set off a chain reaction…

2014 Dr. Sailah Jamar Algebra Project Due Date: November 23, 2014 Muslim Contributions to the History of Mathematics How do Muslims and mathematics go hand in hand? What did Muslims contribute to mathematics? Last but not least how do I think Islam inspire major contributions to the history of mathematics? In my essay you will get a glimpse of Muslims and mathematics through my eyes. Muslims have made many contributions to almost all branches of the sciences and arts, but mathematics was…

The field of science fascinated me even throughout high school. In my Sophomore biology class we worked on a project involving microorganisms from a local pond and from that point forth I knew that this was my dream job. I asked my Biology teacher, Mr Goudy, if he knew how the job market looked for a microbiologist and when he said that it was a growing field, it only made my passion for the study intensify. He also informed me of the growing need due to bacteria developing resistances to the…

educational aspects such as; Biology, clinical practices, bio-technics, psychology, and even stem cell research. The Tri-council is actually the top three government grant agencies in Canada. If one were to do research in Canada and apply for funds, their project would have to be approved by the…
