Scientific misconduct

Judee Burgoon’s, Expectancy Violations Theory also known as EVT, explains how individuals react to unexpected violations of social norms either in a positive or negative way. Scientific theories usually predict and explain how something is going to work and we usually never try to tweak proven scientific theories because they are great proven hypothesis.

Technology is becoming a more prevalent part of society. Many people have cell phones. Many schools are required to have computers.

Student Learning in Science-Based Classroom Environments As a learning assistant for the analytical physics laboratory course, I have learned a great deal about how students learn and how to effectively use that knowledge to teach students. In the context of lab activities and open-ended research, several different pedagogical areas of interest have been extremely applicable to how I interact with students during my lab session and to what I believe is the best way for students to learn and…

way questions are asked are to get to certain answers that are useful for the dominant field. The questions asked by feminist IR researchers are questions that arguably could not be asked within the epistemological boundaries of positivist social scientific approaches to the discipline (Tickner 2005:…
