This document provides a rubric for assessing scientific work under Criterion B, which examines how students plan and design scientific investigations. The rubric outlines four levels of achievement for four assessment criteria: explaining the problem, formulating a hypothesis, explaining how variables will be manipulated and data collected, and designing a method. For each criterion, the rubric describes the actions and level of explanation expected for each level from 7 to 0. Key terms in the rubric like hypothesis, independent variable, and dependent variable are hyperlinked to definitions.

MA International Education University of Bath assignment (Education in and International Context).
In this assignment I have tried to propose an original idea for helping schools define and measure the degree to which they demonstrate the values of international education.
In depth overview of scientific method and experimental design. Begins with key goals, vocabulary and the big picture of the basic process. The program breaks down the scientific process using tulips as examples. Covers the entire process including scientific question and hypothesis formation, control and experimental trials, variables and controlling variables. In addition, discusses types of error, reliability and validity. Shows example conclusion as well as gives examples for Validity and Reliability. Designed for initial teaching by elementary and middle school teachers as well as a self paced review for Grades 6-12 and ELL students.
Version 4.3 includes the companion volume on page 2, the Science and the Scientific Process reference guide (pdf). One must download the presentation to view this detailed document.
Experiment 8 - Resistance and Ohm’s Law 8.1 Introduction .docxgitagrimston
Experiment 8 - Resistance and Ohm’s Law
8.1 Introduction
In previous experiments, we have investigated electric charges largely under stationary conditions. These
studies were useful in order to illustrate concepts such as the electric potential and the electric field, and
forms the foundation needed to further our understanding of electricity and electrical circuits. In contrast
to electrostatics (charges confined to be stationary), the field of electricity deals with the flow (induced
movement) of electrical charges. Due to its many uses, most individuals knowingly or unknowingly have
a daily reliance on electricity. It is especially essential, in: (1) the distribution of energy, and (2) the
processing of information. To enable this, electricity must be handled in circuits, a closed loop of
conducting wire connecting power plant with individual homes, and businesses. To appreciate this
phenomena, it is useful to investigate various aspects of simple circuits and the various laws that may
govern them.
8.2 Objective
1. To verify Ohm’s Law
2. To use Ohm’s law to determine the resistance of a light source.
8.3 Theory
Our initial investigations will be guided by Ohm’s law, which postulates that the relationship between
current flow I, potential difference V, and resistance R for certain materials will observe the following
mathematical relationship, given a constant temperature constraint:
…………. 1RV = I
These materials are called Ohmic conductors, equation 1 implies that the ratio of voltage to current for
these materials is constant. Manufactured resistors can be considered as such, but other components such
as semiconductor diodes, filaments, and LEDs are non ohmic. In this experiment, we will verify Ohm’s
law by assessing whether it holds for a set resistance (typical color coded resistor). Further, we will apply
this to ascertain the resistance of a light source.
8.4 Apparatus
Variable DC voltage source, color coded resistor, (2) multimeters, connecting wires, light source
8.5 Procedure
Part A Verifying Ohm’s Law
1. You will be given a particular colour coded resistor from the set; use this and the other apparatus
items to set up the circuit as shown in figure 1 below.
Figure 1
2. Adjust DC voltage source so that a relatively small voltage reading is seen across the resistor R.
Record this voltage reading, and the electrical current reading ...

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
