Scholarly Journals On Scientific Communication
The publication of scientific work is critically important to scientific communication (Twaij et al. 2014). Scientists communicate their new research
or studies to their audience by publishing their work in scholarly journals and books. People who are not from the area of expertise or are
unfamiliar with the given topic must be able to trust in the credibility of published journal articles. A common process that controls the high quality
of scientific publication is called 'peer review', which ensures that the published work has met the specific standards of a given discipline, a process
that usually begins with a professional reviewing of an author's article by a community of qualified experts before publication. The reviewers are
usually chosen from relevant academic fields and in some cases, the authors are allowed to suggest names of their preferred peer reviewers (Bornmann
2011). The reviewer is responsible for identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the paper, giving constructive comments along with
acceptance–revision–rejection decisions (Do 2003) to the author. More importantly, the peer review process makes a substantial contribution to
determine whether the manuscript contains any "fatal" flaws (Brand 2012), such as plagiarism, duplicated research or even wrong science. Therefore,
peer review plays a critical role in scientific communication by improving the quality of published papers. A survey conducted by Ware showed that a
majority of authors (91%)

A Genre Analysis of Graduate-Level Reading Response Blogs...
Introduction
As a community, academics are increasingly accepting the use of public, online, journal style writings known as weblogs (blogs) as a valid
pedagogy for the classroom. The attraction of using blogs within a classroom setting stems mainly from the discursive possibilities that the new
technology offers: namely, that blogs allow for a discussion of nearly any topic in a socially moderated medium that encourages participants to
compare, expand upon, and modify their understanding of that topic in relation to the ideas of their peers. While these discourses may serve any
variety of purposes, one growing use of the medium is as a format for reading responses–a somewhat traditional pedagogical approach within

Second, because they are written by students seeking advanced degrees, their language, sophistication, and features are likely in sharp contrast to blogs
written by undergraduate and K–12 students. Finally, they do not appear to follow any special criteria for classroom blogs, although (as will become
evident in the following analysis) they do display a few moderating characteristics that show evidence of conformity to a common set of discursive
moves and practices.
The value of the academic blog, both in general and in its many sub–genres, is that it allows students to write for an audience broader than the teacher
(who inevitably becomes the "real" audience for most graded assignments) and yet narrower and more specific than the often described "general
academic audience;" in other words, by writing for and often responding to their peers, students are able to develop a rhetorical awareness of audience
that they are rarely afforded in more traditional assignments

Writing And Writing Of Writing
Everyone says that writing of Communication has become a clichГ©. It is a clichГ©, however that is true. Personally, I do not like writing, but over
time it has become a big part of me that I appreciate. Writing for me started in elementary school. I started with writing my ABCs and my name to
perfection, until I did not make any mistakes. Over my years of writing I have enhanced my expressiveness, originality, and creativity. Growing up, I
loved writing poems. My love for poems developed from listening and loving nursery rhymes such as Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Mary Had A Little
Lamb, Ring around the Rosie, and many others. When I was five years old, I wrote and presented a poem of mine in my church auditorium with
members present. I had anger problems growing up, and my psychologist taught me to let out my anger in different forms of writing. One thing I
have realized is that I write good personal papers whenever I am either upset at someone or a situation. I have minimal experiences in writing
academic papers. I use the writing process I was taught in high school which was: Invention, Draft and Revision, then Proof Reading and Editing. I also
know how to incorporate words into sentences, and utilize sentences to form paragraphs. What are my assumptions about writing? Concerning a
personal writing, nothing. Good, bad, awful, mediocre; writing is about self–expression. If it makes sense to the author, then nothing else matters. I
mean, it is a personal writing; the

Compare The Relationship Between William Wordsworth And I...
From my reading of both the 'Grasmere Journals' written by Dorothy Wordsworth and also the poem 'I wandered lonely as a cloud' written by William
Wordsworth, I believe that there is a strong relationship between the two. I think that both William and his sister Dorothy experienced the same
relationship with the Daffodil's they saw. The only difference is that William expressed his experience through poetry while Dorothy expressed hers
through diary entries. From the evidence we have with the dates of when both were written, I believe William wrote his poem based on Dorothy's
journals. I would be of the opinion that Dorothy's journals were written from her experience alone while Williams's poem was written under the
influence of Dorothy's 'Grasmere ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Much of Dorothy's diary entries include reflective moments in her life. As Sara Crangle said ''[T]here is much of this solitary, reflective image
that can be transposed to the larger depiction of Wordsworth's life.'' Dorothy's journals are mostly written either at the beginning of the day or in
the evening. This time of day is when she is either reflecting on the day gone by or thinking about the day ahead. As she is often out walking with
William or Coleridge it is probable that she is reflecting on these events quite a lot. On May 14th she writes ''I sate a long time upon a stone at the
margin of the lake, and after a flood of tears my heart was easier.'' Dorothy explains how after she reflects she becomes happier. Reflection is a sense of
relief for her. This sense of relief shows how significant writing diary entries are for her. They are her escape where she can be alone with her

Scientific Journal Article Summary
The scientific journal article "Association of Child Poverty, Brain Development, and Academic Achievement" was written based on a study which had
the objective to determine whether abnormal patterns of structural brain development are a mediator for the relationships between household poverty
and poor academic performance. Authors and scientists Nicole Hair, Jamie Hanson, Barbara Wolfe, and Seth Pollak did research to better understand
the link between children that live in poverty and their general poor performance in school, shown by lower standardized test scores and lower
educational fulfillment. Between the years of 2001 and 2007, the longitudinal study analyzed multiple magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of 389

I have always had a general understanding of the idea that children living in poverty are more likely to show poor academic performance, but I never
even thought about the fact that it could be something related to the percentage of grey matter in the brain. Both articles were very helpful in allowing
me to develop a better understanding on why this may be the case. Pollak's idea that children in poverty are not getting enough of the things that they
need to develop the brain and too much of things that don't allow the brain to develop normally really brought this study to light for me. The idea that
these children and their families cannot afford to purchase things that help to stimulate their brains, such as games, books, or crayons and they live in
areas that they can afford, that impede on the brain's ability to develop properly, such as crowded environments, unstable homes that disrupt sleep, or
poor neighborhoods that lack nutritional food options which leads to nutritional deficits. This idea that not everyone goes into the education system with
an equal shot, something referenced by the news article and Pollak, makes me wonder if now, that we have this new information and have found a
new association between children living in poverty and academics, communities could work to achieve a truly equal education system in which
everyone has a fair shot. If these children that live in poverty are shown to have less

Dreams have played a very crucial role to cultures through the years. The aborigines have believed that the stories of the world' very start as the
realization of their dreaming. Native Americans have believed that their dreams are doorways to the spiritual world, ways to quests and prophecies.
The concept of lucid dreaming is not something new either. Aristotle is considered to be the first one to write about lucid dreaming; however, he did
not coin a term for it. Certain Tibetan Buddhists have been practicing "dream yoga" for a long time, which is something similar to lucid dreaming.
The ultimate goal of dream yoga is to examine your consciousness and give you to a state of constant awareness. Bulk of the principles governing the
Buddhist belief is to be familiar with the world for what it is, without illusion. A lucid dreamer is familiarized with the dream world for what it is– a

Welcoming DORA, Rafols24 goes a step further and asks "Will it now become shameful in science to boast of the IF of one's publications?" Bruce
Alberts points out that the misuse of journal IF is highly destructive, and argues that it encourages gaming that can bias journals against publishing
certain types of papers, waste time overloading some journals with inappropriate submissions, and encourage 'me–too' science in favour of more risky,
potentially groundbreaking work23.
Brembs et al.,26 have argued that the current system of journal ranking "is not only technically obsolete, but also counter–productive and a potential
threat to the scientific endeavour". Eve27 recommends an alternative to the existing journal publishing systems where scholarly communication will be
restored to the research institutions in an archival publication system, managed by a 'research output team,' in which both text and raw data are
archived and made accessible, after peer–review. The new system will have its own metric of evaluation.
However, one thing that seems to be universal is the preference of almost all who write research papers to get them published in journals of high IF.

The same content, portrayed in a different order, can lead to a different interpretation of theargument by the reader. In "How to Unleash Climate Action"
by Frances Beinecke, the structure of the paper walks the reader through the following steps: the problem, research studies, potential solutions, how to
carry out those solutions, and a conclusion. Beinecke starts by identifying and putting down the 'opponent, "including the loud and powerful opposition
from the fossil fuel industry; climate deniers on the conservative soapbox; intransigence from some people and complacency from others" (Beinecke,
713). Then, she introduces her proposal to fighting both climate change and these opponents by saying, "...is the single most important thing our
country can do to ght climate change right now" (Beinecke, 716). At this point, the reader should have a thorough understanding of the issue(s) and the
solution to these issues. At this point, by introducing the solution to the problem early on in the paper, Beinecke can use cited research and other
argumentative strategies to convince the reader that her solution and method of implementation is ideal. In the paper's topic headed, "Lessons From
Research", Beinecke simplifies what is stated in the review of her cited research into several different points, which are then explained further. This
topic is then followed by action/application argument, which argues the best way to motivate people to participate in climate change action. By
following the research data/results with a qualitative argument, Beinecke is able to link the two together and to carry over the reader's approval of the
data/facts to the actual argument. The paper has an overall conversational tone and structure on the sentence level, and a story–like flow to it on a full

king crab. He planned to continue the magazine strategy used in phase I, but Cherry Stockworth, vice–president of marketing of Phillips Foods,
recommended him to use the budget to support half of cost of International Boston Seafood Show. According to the information given in this case, I
don't think this is an either–or choice, and my recommendation for Ron Birch is to decrease the cost of ads in trade magazines, change the content of

Opportunity: U.S. seafood market grew rapidly in recent years, and the biggest part of seafood sales is fresh seafood, which is 54% of all seafood
retail sales. The king crab of Phillips belongs to fresh seafood, which means it has huge market potential. Customers tend to buy food that is
easy–cooked and fresh, which is a feature of the king crab product. The IBSS is a nation–wide trade show which could attract a lot of exhibitors and
attendance. Making use of this platform could help Phillips to build its reputation and promote its products at the same time. Threat: Just because the
IBSS could attract a large amount of exhibitors, the competition during the trade show is fierce. Though there are so many potential customers would
appear at the trade show, how could Phillips beat the competitors and attracts enough customers to its booth. Another threat for king crab is the
possible rejection of the retailers because they would feel risky to replace an old product with a new product. Pros and Cons of Alternative Strategies
Trade advertising strategy
Pros: Trade magazine is one of the most important sources for decision–makers and they will spend relatively long time in reading magazines. This
strategy would cost less than trade show strategy and would reach broader potential customers. Cons: Effectiveness for brand building and lead

Journaling Is A Common Practice
"An old adage says that thoughts disentangle themselves when passed through the lips and across the fingertips" (Whitney 260). Thoughts clutter up
our minds and need a release; for some, this is journaling. Journaling can be defined as a practice in which one writes out a variety of things. It isn 't
confined to one specific thing. It can range from daily events and struggles, to poetry, to Bible verses. They hold a purpose in some time and place,
though some may prefer one over another. Journaling has been noted throughout the ages as being beneficial in many lives and providing a source of
hope for many, even in the most difficult times, though some others may find it harmful. Journaling does not necessarily have a specific ... Show more

Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us" (ESV, Ps. 62.6–8). The Psalms were like David's personal
journal. It documents his feelings, mainly towards God, and gives a commentary of the thoughts running through his mind. It clearly shows David
questioning God and going through rough patches, but it also shows moments of great delight and times of significant triumph in his life.
Not only do Biblical figures highlight the use of journaling, but many other notable people and people groups note journaling as a common practice
in their lives. Saint Augustine, one of the most revered figures in the church for the way he shaped the way we view Christianity today, was even
known to have kept a journal in the form of one of his most famous books, Confessions (Whitney 251). For 68 years Queen Victoria was known to
have kept a daily journal (Conhaim). Also, the Puritans, the group of people the set out to reform the English church, kept journals themselves. They
were considered highly religious and Donald Whitney notes this by saying, "The fact that many Puritans kept diaries of this kind helps to explain
their pursuit of social virtue: diaries were the reckoning books in which they checked the assets and liabilities of their souls in faith. When they
opened these books, they set down lapses of morality with appropriate expressions of faith" (qtd. in Whitney 253–254). All of these people kept a

Reflection Of Journal Writing : Personal Aspects Of...
Reading your own writing can be excruciatingly boring. Your mind already knows what's on the paper because it made the words form the piece you
are looking at. I always try to make the experience an adventure. Thinking of the rereading as a deep dive. Deep diving sounds exciting, almost
pirate–like. You get to look for treasure. Or in this casewriting devices that keep popping up in your writing. My deep dive produced a few things I
hadn't noticed while writing my journals. I found that in my journals I tend to follow the troupe of chronologically filing the events, that I'm secretive
and very emotional. As I dived into researching myself, I found that in my technique for journal writing I'm very straight forward. I wrote down what
happened each day in chronological order. For example in Artifact 1, I go through a bad day, "Waking up late on days of my morning class is
absolutely the worst." On to "When class ended I hurried out to my car to get food before work. Lo and behold, I had a parking ticket because I
hadn't picked up my parking pass yet." Lastly, "I get on my comfiest pajamas, sit down and start homework, but the internet isn't working." After
reading over this artifact I came to the conclusion, I do this because when I go back to reflect, it makes the most sense to go in order. When you read
my journals, you get a perception of what my days are like and how I feel about them. They make sense because I go in order, which in a sense is

In the article, the most repetitive word that was used was biotechnology. When the word "biotechnology" appears, the author usually describes the
negative or positive effects of it. An example is when the author stated, "Biotechnology cannot provide secure food and reduce poverty during the
development world.(Lesik,2017)" Therefore, this will inform and make the reader understand that biotechnology is being discussed in the paragraph.
Another language that the author used was their "point of view". The author used the third person point of view to provide evidence for his article.
By using the third person point of view, it made his article sound more effective and scholarly, because he does not use the words, "I" or "we".
The second genre convention that the author used was structure. For a scientific journal article, the structure usually contains different sections such as
an introduction, material/methods, data, results, and a conclusion. The purpose of having this structure is to organize the information, and to make it
easier to identify for readers. In my article, the article has the same structure, but it does not have the same sections that were listed above. Instead, it

The Help Analysis
In "The Help", a film directed by Tate Taylor, an aspiring journalist and novelist named Skeeter is bothered by the treatment black maids receive from
their white employers. In order to open other's eyes to said treatment, Skeeter decides to interview numerous black women and turn their troublesome
stories and unfair pasts into a published novel. One particular black woman, whom is named Aibileen, shares with Skeeter her journal that contains
both prayers and in–depth, heart–wrenching stories of her life as a maid. Though I do not have any heart wrenching stories like Aibileen does, nor do
I plan to publish an eye–opening book like Skeeter did, I do have a situation on my hands that bothers me. This particular situation slightly reminded
me of "The Help" in the sense that I also have a journal I have been keeping about the issue at hand which is bothering me. Therefore, I found it
fitting to follow the example Aibileen and Skeeter set by doing something about their bothersome situation by attempting to do something about my
own situation. I have been a legal assistant at a law firm not far from my home since the time I was sixteen years old. When I began working there, I

Schneider, Whitehead, LoBiondo–Woo, & Haber (2012) propose that is it essential for midwives to understand research including how it is

outlines that midwives have a duty to women they care for. Midwives need to care for them using the most up–to–date evidence available the time.
Publication
A publication can be judged in a number of ways. A rigorous selection procedure for publication of articles, a low approval rate for manuscripts and
how often the journal is cited by published scholars in other journals; (known as the impact factor). These are all influences that lead to what is seen
to be a more superior journal. Consequently this means greater belief in the data present in the publication. The Institute for Scientific Information
(ISI) uses statistics to calculate a journal's 'impact factor', which as stated is a suggestion of the influence an article exercises on other researchers in
a similar research field (Locke, Silverman, & Spirduso, 2010). Other areas that will indicate the trustworthiness of a publication is the quality of the
editorial board. A good board would consist of researchers that belong to a university and who are experienced in the subject field of the journal

communicative forums, both in the paper ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
We see notable risks in a pure laissez–faire "let them work it out for themselves" approach. Large amounts of money, resources, and effort are being
committed (by government agencies, by academic departments, by publishers, by professional societies, and by individual researchers) to the
development, maintenance, and promotion of various forms of communications technologies for use in global science. However, in the absence of a
valid theory of how scholarly fields adopt and shape technology, scientists and policy–makers are left only with context–free models, and hence
resources may be committed to projects that are not self–sustainable, that wither, and that do not effectively improve the scientific communications
system of the field. The consequences may not only be sub–optimal use of financial resources, but also wasted effort on the part of individual
researchers, and even data languishing in marginal, decaying, and dead systems and formats. The purpose of this JASIS perspectives article is to
deepen our understanding of the future of electronic communications in science. It is difficult to predict the longterm future, as too many contingencies
can and will shape long–term outcomes to make meaningful predictions. One may casually predict that that many if not all research journals will issue

Within the chosen book, the first statement is; "When I was little, my dad used to tell me, "Will, you can pick your friends, and you can pick your

an interesting article in this newspaper is written by Kurtis Gosney. He states in his article that, "The UAF Men's basketball team played in the

The Analysis of Professional Writing
Professional writing is defined as any type of written communication generated in a workplace environment. These works are usually presented in a
professional style which allows the users to make informed choices. In addition, professional writing conveys information in a precise language that the
target audience will understand. It is used to inform, instruct .encourage an action or stimulate a debate. The professional writer may be employed or a
freelance in an occupation such as marketing, public relations, journalism advertising or technical writing. These professional writing types include
academic writing, business writing and creative writing among others while professional writing styles include American Psychologic

Importance Of Writing Reflection
When I had signed up for this class, I thought it was going to be similar to a humanities course. I thought that we would be learning about how
journaling has evolved and various ways to journal. As the class progressed, I found it to be more of an art than a humanities class. When this reality
did not match my expectation, I was disappointed. I had to challenge myself to get the most out of this course by changing my attitude and adjusting
my perspective.
As an art class, this would have been an excellent idea and well executed. Being able to learn about different materials, binding techniques, and
adhesives were helpful in the creation of journals, but it was not what I had expected. One thing that stands out to me was the research paper, it just
did not seem to fit into the class very well. Most of the students did not know how to use Chicago Style referencing properly and there was not any
class time allotted to learning it nor to working on the essays. It seemed to be used to check a box rather than to help our understanding. I think that
this essay would have fit into the course much better if we had been spending time in class learning about various historical journalists and how their
work impacted the region in which it was created. It just did not seem as though our homework matched our class work, so I was a little thrown off.
This imbalance was especially apparent because the room was deemed technology free, so we could not even work on our essays while in class.

In general, technology is never perfect, and that is why it is important that people become more informed about cybersecurity. In the online Academic
Journal "Building Cybersecurity Awareness: The need for evidence–based framing strategies." By Hans de Bruijn and Marijn Janssen. Hans de Bruijn

picture. We worry less about how with a push of a button tons of information can be stolen or even erased. As Hans mentioned cyberwars are

cybersecurity. There are many ways that the public can be made aware of it. One of those ways is to show actual evidence to people who tend to

Bush House belonged to Asahel Bush II (1824–1913) became editor and publisher of The Oregon Statesman newspaper in 1851, and later served as

(1860–1946) and Eugenia (1862–1932). Later in 1863, Bush's wife died at age 39 with Tuberculosis and so the children only lived with him after
that while later moving forth with their own lives as adults. However, I have declined to provide a ticket due to this following reason: my good

Scholarly Journals On Scientific Communication

  • 1. Scholarly Journals On Scientific Communication The publication of scientific work is critically important to scientific communication (Twaij et al. 2014). Scientists communicate their new research or studies to their audience by publishing their work in scholarly journals and books. People who are not from the area of expertise or are unfamiliar with the given topic must be able to trust in the credibility of published journal articles. A common process that controls the high quality of scientific publication is called 'peer review', which ensures that the published work has met the specific standards of a given discipline, a process that usually begins with a professional reviewing of an author's article by a community of qualified experts before publication. The reviewers are usually chosen from relevant academic fields and in some cases, the authors are allowed to suggest names of their preferred peer reviewers (Bornmann 2011). The reviewer is responsible for identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the paper, giving constructive comments along with acceptance–revision–rejection decisions (Do 2003) to the author. More importantly, the peer review process makes a substantial contribution to determine whether the manuscript contains any "fatal" flaws (Brand 2012), such as plagiarism, duplicated research or even wrong science. Therefore, peer review plays a critical role in scientific communication by improving the quality of published papers. A survey conducted by Ware showed that a majority of authors (91%) ...

  • 2. A Genre Analysis of Graduate-Level Reading Response Blogs... Introduction As a community, academics are increasingly accepting the use of public, online, journal style writings known as weblogs (blogs) as a valid pedagogy for the classroom. The attraction of using blogs within a classroom setting stems mainly from the discursive possibilities that the new technology offers: namely, that blogs allow for a discussion of nearly any topic in a socially moderated medium that encourages participants to compare, expand upon, and modify their understanding of that topic in relation to the ideas of their peers. While these discourses may serve any variety of purposes, one growing use of the medium is as a format for reading responses–a somewhat traditional pedagogical approach within Composition Studies, ...

Second, because they are written by students seeking advanced degrees, their language, sophistication, and features are likely in sharp contrast to blogs written by undergraduate and K–12 students. Finally, they do not appear to follow any special criteria for classroom blogs, although (as will become evident in the following analysis) they do display a few moderating characteristics that show evidence of conformity to a common set of discursive moves and practices. The value of the academic blog, both in general and in its many sub–genres, is that it allows students to write for an audience broader than the teacher (who inevitably becomes the "real" audience for most graded assignments) and yet narrower and more specific than the often described "general academic audience;" in other words, by writing for and often responding to their peers, students are able to develop a rhetorical awareness of audience that they are rarely afforded in more traditional assignments ...

  • 3. Writing And Writing Of Writing Everyone says that writing of Communication has become a clichГ©. It is a clichГ©, however that is true. Personally, I do not like writing, but over time it has become a big part of me that I appreciate. Writing for me started in elementary school. I started with writing my ABCs and my name to perfection, until I did not make any mistakes. Over my years of writing I have enhanced my expressiveness, originality, and creativity. Growing up, I loved writing poems. My love for poems developed from listening and loving nursery rhymes such as Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Mary Had A Little Lamb, Ring around the Rosie, and many others. When I was five years old, I wrote and presented a poem of mine in my church auditorium with members present. I had anger problems growing up, and my psychologist taught me to let out my anger in different forms of writing. One thing I have realized is that I write good personal papers whenever I am either upset at someone or a situation. I have minimal experiences in writing academic papers. I use the writing process I was taught in high school which was: Invention, Draft and Revision, then Proof Reading and Editing. I also know how to incorporate words into sentences, and utilize sentences to form paragraphs. What are my assumptions about writing? Concerning a personal writing, nothing. Good, bad, awful, mediocre; writing is about self–expression. If it makes sense to the author, then nothing else matters. I mean, it is a personal writing; the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 4. Compare The Relationship Between William Wordsworth And I... From my reading of both the 'Grasmere Journals' written by Dorothy Wordsworth and also the poem 'I wandered lonely as a cloud' written by William Wordsworth, I believe that there is a strong relationship between the two. I think that both William and his sister Dorothy experienced the same relationship with the Daffodil's they saw. The only difference is that William expressed his experience through poetry while Dorothy expressed hers through diary entries. From the evidence we have with the dates of when both were written, I believe William wrote his poem based on Dorothy's journals. I would be of the opinion that Dorothy's journals were written from her experience alone while Williams's poem was written under the influence of Dorothy's 'Grasmere ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Much of Dorothy's diary entries include reflective moments in her life. As Sara Crangle said ''[T]here is much of this solitary, reflective image that can be transposed to the larger depiction of Wordsworth's life.'' Dorothy's journals are mostly written either at the beginning of the day or in the evening. This time of day is when she is either reflecting on the day gone by or thinking about the day ahead. As she is often out walking with William or Coleridge it is probable that she is reflecting on these events quite a lot. On May 14th she writes ''I sate a long time upon a stone at the margin of the lake, and after a flood of tears my heart was easier.'' Dorothy explains how after she reflects she becomes happier. Reflection is a sense of relief for her. This sense of relief shows how significant writing diary entries are for her. They are her escape where she can be alone with her ...

  • 5. Scientific Journal Article Summary The scientific journal article "Association of Child Poverty, Brain Development, and Academic Achievement" was written based on a study which had the objective to determine whether abnormal patterns of structural brain development are a mediator for the relationships between household poverty and poor academic performance. Authors and scientists Nicole Hair, Jamie Hanson, Barbara Wolfe, and Seth Pollak did research to better understand the link between children that live in poverty and their general poor performance in school, shown by lower standardized test scores and lower educational fulfillment. Between the years of 2001 and 2007, the longitudinal study analyzed multiple magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of 389 different developing ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... I have always had a general understanding of the idea that children living in poverty are more likely to show poor academic performance, but I never even thought about the fact that it could be something related to the percentage of grey matter in the brain. Both articles were very helpful in allowing me to develop a better understanding on why this may be the case. Pollak's idea that children in poverty are not getting enough of the things that they need to develop the brain and too much of things that don't allow the brain to develop normally really brought this study to light for me. The idea that these children and their families cannot afford to purchase things that help to stimulate their brains, such as games, books, or crayons and they live in areas that they can afford, that impede on the brain's ability to develop properly, such as crowded environments, unstable homes that disrupt sleep, or poor neighborhoods that lack nutritional food options which leads to nutritional deficits. This idea that not everyone goes into the education system with an equal shot, something referenced by the news article and Pollak, makes me wonder if now, that we have this new information and have found a new association between children living in poverty and academics, communities could work to achieve a truly equal education system in which everyone has a fair shot. If these children that live in poverty are shown to have less ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 9. No Repository Of Human Knowledge Aaron Swartz was a computer computer prodigy and activist for political and societal change. From adolescent Swartz amassed attention within the technological community from designing websites to his intellectualism. As an adult, Swartz railed against established society through activism. Ultimately, the activism led to his arrest and death at 26. Opinions surround Swartz fluctuate, but his work continues to survive after his death. Born on November 8, 1986, to Robert and Susan Swartz, Aaron was raised in the Chicago suburb of Highland Park, Illinois. At three, Swartz's father introduced him to computers, and according to Swartz's mother, he "took off like crazy on them." As an adolescent, Swartz programmed The Info Network, a website tasked with the purpose of documenting the "...vast repository of human knowledge." At Swartz's junior high school, ArsDigita, a website designing firm, hosted a competition and The Info Network received first prize.

Bruce Alberts points out that the misuse of journal IF is highly destructive, and argues that it encourages gaming that can bias journals against publishing certain types of papers, waste time overloading some journals with inappropriate submissions, and encourage 'me–too' science in favour of more risky, potentially groundbreaking work23. Brembs et al.,26 have argued that the current system of journal ranking "is not only technically obsolete, but also counter–productive and a potential threat to the scientific endeavour". Eve27 recommends an alternative to the existing journal publishing systems where scholarly communication will be restored to the research institutions in an archival publication system, managed by a 'research output team,' in which both text and raw data are archived and made accessible, after peer–review. The new system will have its own metric of evaluation. However, one thing that seems to be universal is the preference of almost all who write research papers to get them published in journals of high IF.

The study hypothesizes that maize or corn, was brought into the canyon from a region known as the Chaco Halo and seeks to identify the specific sources of the maize. The researchers collect data by analyzing 12 corn cobs found in Chaco Canyon and use the presence of Strontium 86 and 87 to determine the produce's origins. During the study they narrow the possibilities that "the corn cobs were imported from the Zuni region, the Mesa Verde–McElmo Dome area, or the Totah area during a time when the climate was relatively wet and when a surplus of corn was produced in regions outside Chaco Canyon" (Benson 2010).

The proper use of rhetorical 'tools' such as metaphors or the overall structure of the paper allows for the writer to channel the reader's attention to the argument(s) they're trying to make/prove. However, when used improperly, the reader interprets the writer to be a non–credible source because the rhetorical techniques he/she is uses are either too obvious or they do not create an easy and focused experience for the reader.

The same content, portrayed in a different order, can lead to a different interpretation of theargument by the reader. In "How to Unleash Climate Action" by Frances Beinecke, the structure of the paper walks the reader through the following steps: the problem, research studies, potential solutions, how to carry out those solutions, and a conclusion. Beinecke starts by identifying and putting down the 'opponent, "including the loud and powerful opposition from the fossil fuel industry; climate deniers on the conservative soapbox; intransigence from some people and complacency from others" (Beinecke, 713). Then, she introduces her proposal to fighting both climate change and these opponents by saying, "...is the single most important thing our country can do to ght climate change right now" (Beinecke, 716). At this point, the reader should have a thorough understanding of the issue(s) and the solution to these issues. At this point, by introducing the solution to the problem early on in the paper, Beinecke can use cited research and other argumentative strategies to convince the reader that her solution and method of implementation is ideal. In the paper's topic headed, "Lessons From Research", Beinecke simplifies what is stated in the review of her cited research into several different points, which are then explained further. This topic is then followed by action/application argument, which argues the best way to motivate people to participate in climate change action. By following the research data/results with a qualitative argument, Beinecke is able to link the two together and to carry over the reader's approval of the data/facts to the actual argument.

The king crab of Phillips belongs to fresh seafood, which means it has huge market potential. Customers tend to buy food that is easy–cooked and fresh, which is a feature of the king crab product. The IBSS is a nation–wide trade show which could attract a lot of exhibitors and attendance. Making use of this platform could help Phillips to build its reputation and promote its products at the same time. Threat: Just because the IBSS could attract a large amount of exhibitors, the competition during the trade show is fierce. Though there are so many potential customers would appear at the trade show, how could Phillips beat the competitors and attracts enough customers to its booth.

It clearly shows David questioning God and going through rough patches, but it also shows moments of great delight and times of significant triumph in his life. Not only do Biblical figures highlight the use of journaling, but many other notable people and people groups note journaling as a common practice in their lives. Saint Augustine, one of the most revered figures in the church for the way he shaped the way we view Christianity today, was even known to have kept a journal in the form of one of his most famous books, Confessions (Whitney 251). For 68 years Queen Victoria was known to have kept a daily journal (Conhaim). Also, the Puritans, the group of people the set out to reform the English church, kept journals themselves. They were considered highly religious and Donald Whitney notes this by saying, "The fact that many Puritans kept diaries of this kind helps to explain their pursuit of social virtue: diaries were the reckoning books in which they checked the assets and liabilities of their souls in faith.

Deep diving sounds exciting, almost pirate–like. You get to look for treasure. Or in this casewriting devices that keep popping up in your writing. My deep dive produced a few things I hadn't noticed while writing my journals. I found that in my journals I tend to follow the troupe of chronologically filing the events, that I'm secretive and very emotional. As I dived into researching myself, I found that in my technique for journal writing I'm very straight forward. I wrote down what happened each day in chronological order. For example in Artifact 1, I go through a bad day, "Waking up late on days of my morning class is absolutely the worst." On to "When class ended I hurried out to my car to get food before work. Lo and behold, I had a parking ticket because I hadn't picked up my parking pass yet." Lastly, "I get on my comfiest pajamas, sit down and start homework, but the internet isn't working." After reading over this artifact I came to the conclusion, I do this because when I go back to reflect, it makes the most sense to go in order.

An example is when the author stated, "Biotechnology cannot provide secure food and reduce poverty during the development world.(Lesik,2017)" Therefore, this will inform and make the reader understand that biotechnology is being discussed in the paragraph. Another language that the author used was their "point of view". The author used the third person point of view to provide evidence for his article. By using the third person point of view, it made his article sound more effective and scholarly, because he does not use the words, "I" or "we". The second genre convention that the author used was structure. For a scientific journal article, the structure usually contains different sections such as an introduction, material/methods, data, results, and a conclusion. The purpose of having this structure is to organize the information, and to make it easier to identify for readers.

In order to open other's eyes to said treatment, Skeeter decides to interview numerous black women and turn their troublesome stories and unfair pasts into a published novel. One particular black woman, whom is named Aibileen, shares with Skeeter her journal that contains both prayers and in–depth, heart–wrenching stories of her life as a maid. Though I do not have any heart wrenching stories like Aibileen does, nor do I plan to publish an eye–opening book like Skeeter did, I do have a situation on my hands that bothers me. This particular situation slightly reminded me of "The Help" in the sense that I also have a journal I have been keeping about the issue at hand which is bothering me.

We see notable risks in a pure laissez–faire "let them work it out for themselves" approach. Large amounts of money, resources, and effort are being committed (by government agencies, by academic departments, by publishers, by professional societies, and by individual researchers) to the development, maintenance, and promotion of various forms of communications technologies for use in global science. However, in the absence of a valid theory of how scholarly fields adopt and shape technology, scientists and policy–makers are left only with context–free models, and hence resources may be committed to projects that are not self–sustainable, that wither, and that do not effectively improve the scientific communications system of the field. The consequences may not only be sub–optimal use of financial resources, but also wasted effort on the part of individual researchers, and even data languishing in marginal, decaying, and dead systems and formats.

Using Journals Effectively in Classrooms Essay Using Journals Effectively in Classrooms Journal writing seems to be a popular element teachers use to give students the opportunity to become involved in the classroom without always speaking. However, is journal writing a beneficial tool for student learning? How can it become more effective in the classroom? There are many types of journals which can be used in a classroom.

Journal entries are "normally" done by using words, however there is a move to allow students to use photographs, drawings, paintings, or any creative way the student may choose to express themselves. According to Teaching Writing written by Gail Tompkins, the purpose of journal writing is for students to use journals to 1) record personal experiences, 2) explore reactions and interpretations, and 3) record and analyze information.

  • 39. The Privilege Of Attending The Bush House Museum I had the privilege of attending the Bush House Museum here in Salem. I went on Sunday November 20, 2016 and wanted to go because the house was built in the Victorian era. I've always been quite intrigued with the Victorian era overall. That includes architecture, people, and the culture. The Bush House belonged to Asahel Bush II (1824–1913) became editor and publisher of The Oregon Statesman newspaper in 1851, and later served as state printer. He lived in the house with Eugenia Zieber Bush (1833–1863) and his four children, Estelle (1856– 1942), Asahel (1858–1953), Sally (1860–1946) and Eugenia (1862–1932). Later in 1863, Bush's wife died at age 39 with Tuberculosis and so the children only lived with him after that while later moving forth with their own lives as adults. However, I have declined to provide a ticket due to this following reason: my good colleague, Karen Howard and I got lost trying to locate the Bush House Museum. We finally arrived at 1:20 and graciously waited for thetour guide to come to the door after we rang the bell. She came out and we explained to her that we lost our way in trying to find the house. We told her we intended to come for the 1pm tour. Thankfully, we did not have to wait for the 2pm tour and she took us right in. After, we finished the guided tour, she said we did not even need to come back and prove to her that we bought tickets, she said we simply needed to pay the admission price at the nearby art gallery.
