Case study
Case studies allow an intensive analysis of an individual or community, examining developmental factors in relation to the environment. They provide a strong representation of reality and multiple viewpoints. While case studies do not generalize to whole populations, individual cases can provide insights. Barriers include limited generalizability, but single case studies can test interventions and measure results like experimental research. An example case study examined an English learner over three years, finding no relationship between acculturation level and grammatical development.
Interpretive paradigm presentation by vicky & savithiri
This document provides an overview of the interpretive research paradigm, including its key assumptions, origins, methods, and evolution. It discusses interpretivism's focus on understanding meaning and interpretation through socially constructed realities. The document outlines interpretivism's ontology of multiple subjective realities and epistemology of dynamic, context-dependent meanings. It also summarizes common interpretive research methods like interviews and observations. Finally, it notes some challenges of interpretive research and criteria for evaluating interpretive studies.
Research ethics
This document provides an overview of research ethics and ethical principles guiding human subject research. It discusses key topics including:
1) The importance of ethics in research to protect participants and ensure respect, safety, and knowledge sharing.
2) Ethical principles like respect for human dignity, informed consent, protecting vulnerable groups, and ensuring benefits outweigh risks.
3) Procedures for ethical research like obtaining informed consent, maintaining confidentiality, minimizing harms, and conducting risk-benefit assessments.
4) Potential benefits and risks to research participants in different types of studies.
5) Special considerations for vulnerable groups like children, those with disabilities, the terminally ill, and institutionalized individuals.
Science Curriculum Design
The document discusses inquiry as a cognitive process that allows humans to understand their surroundings through discovery, invention, and testing of solutions to problems. It describes inquiry as a process of considered thought rather than reflexive response. It then outlines different types of knowledge generation and structures of disciplinary inquiry, including proto-curiosity, curiosity, replicative, technological, informal personal learning, formal authoritative community instruction, and more.
Chapter 3 history and philosophy of science
This document discusses the relationship between nursing, science, and philosophy. It explores how nursing has developed as a science through different philosophical perspectives on the nature of knowledge and the relationship between theory and research. Early views emphasized empiricism and positivism, but later perspectives acknowledge that theories influence what is observed. The document also outlines key developments in nursing theory and philosophy, including the emergence of different paradigms and frameworks for understanding nursing knowledge.
Exploring the Research Process
This document provides an overview of the sociological research process. It discusses:
- The importance of research in distinguishing sociological claims from commonsense opinions.
- The main types of data collected in research - quantitative and qualitative.
- Factors that influence the choice of research topic such as the researcher's values and theoretical perspective.
- Key aspects of the research process including developing research questions, defining concepts through operationalization, and considering practical issues like access and funding.
Scientific approach
The document discusses the scientific approach to teaching science. It defines science as a self-correcting tool for examining the world, and notes that scientific learning is designed to help students develop concepts, laws, and principles through the scientific method. The document then outlines how the 2013 curriculum incorporates the scientific approach by engaging students' attitudes, knowledge, and skills. It describes three learning models - discovery learning, project based learning, and problem based learning. Finally, it lists the key aspects of scientific behavior and notes that the scientific approach is compatible with constructivist learning theories.

Pet735 week 4 presentation
This document discusses different theoretical perspectives - positivist, interpretive, socially critical, poststructuralist, and feminist - that can inform physical education research. Each perspective is defined, and its strengths and weaknesses are outlined. The document cautions that theories should be empirically grounded and connected to important issues. It concludes that using multiple perspectives can provide richer insight than a single paradigm alone. Researchers should understand the perspectives underpinning their work and how theories relate to the overall research questions.
Pet735 week 4 pres.
This document discusses different theoretical perspectives (paradigms) that can inform physical education research: positivist, interpretive, socially critical, poststructuralist, and feminist. It summarizes each perspective's definition, strengths, weaknesses, and connections to other perspectives. The conclusion emphasizes that researchers should understand how their chosen paradigm relates to their research questions and the "bigger picture," and that using multiple paradigms can provide richer insights than single paradigms. Researchers are cautioned against misusing theory for self-promotion or following theoretical fads.
TYPES OF Paradigm
The document compares and contrasts different social science paradigms at both the micro and macro levels. It discusses several paradigms including the conflict paradigm, functionalism, behavioralism, and perspectives based on human development theory. It also outlines four traditions in working with people with intellectual disabilities - rights-based, skills-based, behavioral, and developmental approaches. Natural sciences are seen as progressing from false to true views, while social sciences paradigms may gain or lose popularity but are seldom discarded.
Ethics and Qualitative Research
This document discusses ethics in qualitative research. It covers obtaining informed consent from participants, maintaining confidentiality of information, debriefing participants without causing physical or psychological harm, and following general moral principles to govern the behavior of researchers. The purpose is to submit this information to a professor for a class on research ethics and qualitative methods. It provides definitions and brief descriptions of key ethical considerations for conducting qualitative research.
Chapter 4 theory as practice
Theory is a complex process of asking and answering questions to make sense of the world. It aims to describe phenomena, explain relationships, and predict outcomes. Commonsense theories are personal explanations, while scientific theories are more elaborate and systematic. Theorizing requires considering specific types of questions and providing principled answers to build logical narratives. When closely tied to practice through reflection, theory enhances understanding; but separating theory from practice can render it ineffective or negative.
Ethics in research
The document discusses several key ethical issues in research including principles of ethics in research, the role of internal review boards, and types of misconduct. The main points covered are:
- The four main principles of ethics in research are protection from harm, informed consent, right to privacy, and honesty with professional colleagues.
- An internal review board reviews all research proposals and must approve any study before it begins to ensure ethical standards are followed.
- Misconduct in research can include fraud, falsification of data, plagiarism, failure to comply with requirements, and other unacceptable practices. Upholding integrity in research is important.

Feminist Methodology and Contemporary Feminist Research in India
Feminist research deals with theories about oppression, power relations, and inequality. It challenges traditional assumptions in research and knowledge creation. Feminist methodology combines both traditional and contemporary research methods and can utilize both qualitative and quantitative data. Contemporary feminist research in India is characterized by conscious partiality where researchers identify with respondents, action research that seeks social change, and valuing diversity and differences among women. The goal of feminist research is empowerment, overcoming inequity, and representing marginalized voices.

Case Study Object As Cases
There are three main types of case studies: intrinsic, instrumental, and multiple case studies. Intrinsic case studies focus on understanding a specific individual or situation. Instrumental case studies examine a particular case to gain insight into an issue or refine a theory. Multiple case studies study multiple cases as part of an overall study to make conclusions more compelling and valid. Qualitative research techniques include ethnographic research to understand how people live and historical research to study the past. There are various sampling methods for qualitative research such as typical, critical, homogeneous, theoretical, snowball, opportunistic, confirming, and maximal variation samples.
Dev Psy PP
The document discusses key aspects of the scientific study of human development. It covers that development is studied across the lifespan using scientific theories and methodology. The nature vs nurture debate examines the influence of genes and environment on development. Development involves physical, cognitive, and psychosocial changes and occurs through interactions across multiple contexts and cultures. Theories provide frameworks for understanding development, which consider different milestones and processes important. Research methods include observation, experiments, surveys and longitudinal studies to examine development over time.
Nature of science
This document discusses the nature of science (NOS) and scientific knowledge. It defines NOS as the epistemology and sociology of science, or science as a way of knowing. Some key aspects of NOS discussed include scientific inquiry, the scientific worldview, and the scientific enterprise. The document also examines how NOS can be taught, the challenges to teaching NOS, and different tools for measuring students' understanding of NOS.
Chapter 2 the evolution of nursing science
This chapter discusses the evolution of nursing science from its origins in training to the current state. Early nursing education focused on skills but has shifted to an emphasis on understanding. Nursing science has been influenced by different philosophies over time, from logical positivism to postmodernism. Current trends incorporate pluralistic and pragmatic approaches. The future of nursing knowledge will require blending philosophy with social trends and research to identify and address problems in the discipline through leadership.
Chapter 1 philosophy of science
The document discusses different philosophies of science as they relate to nursing. It describes analytic philosophy which focuses on logic and finding a single truth through the scientific method. Continental philosophy examines lived experiences and connections between ideas. Nursing incorporates aspects of both in examining concepts, theories, and how to best understand and care for patients. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of understanding different philosophies and constantly questioning assumptions to evolve as a nurse.
theory paradigm & model
1. There are three major paradigms in communication theory: positivistic, interpretive, and critical. The positivistic paradigm views reality as objective, the interpretive sees it as subjective, and the critical sees reality as constructed by powerful groups.
2. Theories can be approached deductively, from general propositions to specific hypotheses, or inductively, from observations to generalized conclusions. Models are simplified representations of phenomena that show relationships between elements.
3. Linear models depict communication as a one-way transmission process, while interactive models see it as a mutual exchange and transactional models emphasize the interdependence of message formulation, interpretation, and exchange.
Theory of Knowledge & Research Methodology
This document discusses different approaches to ontology and epistemology in political science research. It outlines the key perspectives of positivism, interpretivism, and realism. Positivism asserts that the social world can be studied objectively through scientific methods like in natural science. Interpretivism views the social world as socially constructed and knowledge as theory-laden. Realism argues that there is a real world that exists independently of our knowledge of it and structures have causal powers, though not all are directly observable. The document also compares scientific and hermeneutic approaches and their differing views on causation, observation, and understanding social phenomena.
Chapter 3 the essentials of the doctor of nursing practice
The document discusses the history and development of the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree. It provides an overview of the DNP, including that it is a practice-focused terminal degree recommended by AACN. It also summarizes the eight essential competencies for DNP graduates, including scientific underpinnings, organizational leadership, evidence-based practice, and interprofessional collaboration. The document emphasizes that DNP graduates must have a strong understanding of nursing theory and science to apply knowledge and close the theory-practice gap.

Here are some ways the different positions discussed could approach ECA topics:
- Positivist: Take a detached, objective view. Form hypotheses and test them empirically through controlled experiments. Aim to establish causal relationships or generalizable laws. Use quantitative methods.
- Interpretivist: Emphasize understanding meaning and experience from participants' perspectives. Consider social and cultural contexts. Use qualitative methods like interviews to explore diverse viewpoints.
- Critical realist: Acknowledge complexity and unseen influences like social structures. Study open systems with many factors. Use mixed methods to explore observable behaviors and underlying realities. Theories cannot be decisively proven or falsified.

2. Verifiable - observations are verified again to confirm or refute previous findings.
3. Cumulative - researchers build upon existing bodies of knowledge to advance understanding.
4. Deterministic - scientists seek to identify causal relationships and explain phenomena through logic rather than chance.
5. Ethical and ideological neutrality - conclusions must be objective and based on empirical data, not personal biases.
6. Statistical generalization - sampling aims for findings that generalize beyond specific settings.
7. Rationalism - explanations are logically reasoned through deductive and inductive logic rather

Research is defined as a systematic, scientific investigation that follows a sequence of steps to establish facts and solve problems. The objectives of research are to gain familiarity with phenomena, accurately portray characteristics of individuals or groups, or test hypotheses about causal relationships. A research paradigm provides the philosophical framework for how a researcher views the world and their research. The key aspects of a paradigm are its ontology regarding the nature of reality, epistemology regarding what can be known, and methodology regarding how knowledge can be obtained. Different paradigms like positivism, interpretivism, and critical theory have distinct beliefs about these aspects.

Doing research in social sciences power point
This document discusses methods for conducting social research. It explains that social scientists use both quantitative and qualitative methods. Quantitative methods are used to study large populations and establish relationships between variables, but cannot capture the richness of individual experiences. Qualitative methods focus on understanding meanings and interpretations through techniques like interviews and observation. The document also notes that social research aims to move beyond common sense understandings and challenge prejudices by taking a scientific approach.

AI-Based Home Security System : Home security
Home security is of paramount importance in today's world, where we rely more on technology, home
security is crucial. Using technology to make homes safer and easier to control from anywhere is
important. Home security is important for the occupant’s safety. In this paper, we came up with a low cost,
AI based model home security system. The system has a user-friendly interface, allowing users to start
model training and face detection with simple keyboard commands. Our goal is to introduce an innovative
home security system using facial recognition technology. Unlike traditional systems, this system trains
and saves images of friends and family members. The system scans this folder to recognize familiar faces
and provides real-time monitoring. If an unfamiliar face is detected, it promptly sends an email alert,
ensuring a proactive response to potential security threats.
Height and depth gauge linear metrology.pdf
Height gauges may also be used to measure the height of an object by using the underside of the scriber as the datum. The datum may be permanently fixed or the height gauge may have provision to adjust the scale, this is done by sliding the scale vertically along the body of the height gauge by turning a fine feed screw at the top of the gauge; then with the scriber set to the same level as the base, the scale can be matched to it. This adjustment allows different scribers or probes to be used, as well as adjusting for any errors in a damaged or resharpened probe.

Prediction of Electrical Energy Efficiency Using Information on Consumer's Ac...
Energy efficiency has been important since the latter part of the last century. The main object of this survey is to determine the energy efficiency knowledge among consumers. Two separate districts in Bangladesh are selected to conduct the survey on households and showrooms about the energy and seller also. The survey uses the data to find some regression equations from which it is easy to predict energy efficiency knowledge. The data is analyzed and calculated based on five important criteria. The initial target was to find some factors that help predict a person's energy efficiency knowledge. From the survey, it is found that the energy efficiency awareness among the people of our country is very low. Relationships between household energy use behaviors are estimated using a unique dataset of about 40 households and 20 showrooms in Bangladesh's Chapainawabganj and Bagerhat districts. Knowledge of energy consumption and energy efficiency technology options is found to be associated with household use of energy conservation practices. Household characteristics also influence household energy use behavior. Younger household cohorts are more likely to adopt energy-efficient technologies and energy conservation practices and place primary importance on energy saving for environmental reasons. Education also influences attitudes toward energy conservation in Bangladesh. Low-education households indicate they primarily save electricity for the environment while high-education households indicate they are motivated by environmental concerns.
Applications of artificial Intelligence in Mechanical Engineering.pdf
Historically, mechanical engineering has relied heavily on human expertise and empirical methods to solve complex problems. With the introduction of computer-aided design (CAD) and finite element analysis (FEA), the field took its first steps towards digitization. These tools allowed engineers to simulate and analyze mechanical systems with greater accuracy and efficiency. However, the sheer volume of data generated by modern engineering systems and the increasing complexity of these systems have necessitated more advanced analytical tools, paving the way for AI.
AI offers the capability to process vast amounts of data, identify patterns, and make predictions with a level of speed and accuracy unattainable by traditional methods. This has profound implications for mechanical engineering, enabling more efficient design processes, predictive maintenance strategies, and optimized manufacturing operations. AI-driven tools can learn from historical data, adapt to new information, and continuously improve their performance, making them invaluable in tackling the multifaceted challenges of modern mechanical engineering.

It meticulously outlines several critical steps in the process, starting with the crucial task of enabling permissions, followed by the installation and configuration of WSL.
The guide then proceeds to explain how to set up the SSH service within the WSL environment, an integral part of the process. Alongside this, it also provides detailed instructions on how to modify the inbound rules of the Windows firewall to facilitate the process, ensuring that there are no connectivity issues that could potentially hinder the debugging process.
The document further emphasizes on the importance of checking the connection between the Windows and WSL environments, providing instructions on how to ensure that the connection is optimal and ready for remote debugging.
It also offers an in-depth guide on how to configure the WSL interpreter and files within the PyCharm environment. This is essential for ensuring that the debugging process is set up correctly and that the program can be run effectively within the WSL terminal.
Additionally, the document provides guidance on how to set up breakpoints for debugging, a fundamental aspect of the debugging process which allows the developer to stop the execution of their code at certain points and inspect their program at those stages.
Finally, the document concludes by providing a link to a reference blog. This blog offers additional information and guidance on configuring the remote Python interpreter in PyCharm, providing the reader with a well-rounded understanding of the process.

Research paradigms
- 1. Research Methods Dr. Ayman Abu-Shomar, Fall, 2015
- 2. A paradigm can be thought of as a framework or way of seeing the world. A paradigm frames a research study, and influences how we conceptualise methodology, the research question, the design, theory and methods.
- 3. 1. Ontology – a philosophical theory of the nature of knowledge, what is there to know? Epistemology - A philosophical theory of knowledge that provides an account of what counts as legitimate knowledge. How do we know?
- 4. 2. Beliefs about methodology – what to investigate, how to investigate, what to measure or assess, and how. 3. Validity, reliability and generalisability - what it means to claim that we know something, and how such claims can be supported. - how to evaluate someone’s claim to knowledge, and the applicability or generalisability to other events, phenomena, populations, contexts. What counts as ‘truth’.
- 5. Positivists believe that the world consists of two levels – a continuously changing surface of events and appearances, and an unchanging order expressed as universal laws. e.g. Piaget’s ‘ages and stages’ – a universal theory of child development (or is it ?)
- 6. Interpretivism seeks to explain how people make sense of circumstances, events, phenomena, life experiences, and the social and cultural worlds of themselves and others. e.g. Bennett, Wood and Rogers, (1997)
- 7. Structuralists regard the world as a collection of systems of law-governed relationships. Post-structuralists and post-modernists see the world as incoherent and discontinuous. Everything and everyone shifts and changes. Focus on relationships between knowledge(s), meanings, power and identities.
- 8. Problems and challenges: • Whose voices are heard? How do we understand silences? • What are the power relations between researchers and their participants? • Who holds power in contexts and relationships? • How is power exercised? • Whose meanings and knowledge are privileged? e.g Piaget’s normative theories of development create a deficit model for non-western children
- 9. Internal reliability and validity External credibility – links with other research studies, theories, methodology, Less concern with generalisability.
- 10. Research question/s Research design Research methods Tools for use, tools and use…
- 11. …Using video as a form of generating data: What are the ethical and cultural issues? Who decides what to video? Who carries out the videotaping? Where? When? Who looks at the video? Who is involved in the analysis and interpretation? What other methods are used (e.g. stimulated recall, joint discussions) What use is made of the data? Whose voices are heard?
