Bahamas Research Paper
The study examined the relationship between the size of sea rods and their location on reefs around San Salvador Island, Bahamas. Data was collected from 62 sea rods on the unprotected side of reefs and 29 sea rods on the protected side. Sea rods were significantly larger on the unprotected side, with an average size of 1679.39cm2, compared to 531.48cm2 on the protected side.

Research Paper "taxidermy"
Charles Ethan Akeley was a pioneering American taxidermist in the late 19th/early 20th century who developed more realistic mounting techniques. He mounted animals in natural poses and environments. Roland Howser developed the freeze-dry mounting method in the 1960s. Ambrose Daigre created solid foam models for mounting small animals. Taxidermy has evolved over time from crude early attempts to more sophisticated preservation of animal skins and realistic recreations using materials like silicone and molded foam. The time needed to mount an animal can vary from just a few hours for small game to much longer for large exotic specimens. Taxidermy remains a practiced art and profession.

Gehry is known for his innovative designs that feature unusual shapes and curves, made possible through the use of digital modeling tools. Some of his most famous works include the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, known for its sweeping titanium curves, and the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles. Gehry was heavily influenced by modernist architect Le Corbusier, whose works like the Notre-Dame-du-Haut chapel featured graceful sculpted forms.
ALGAE Research Paper Final-1-1
- Algae biofuel shows potential as a solution to future liquid fuel problems as it is able to produce more raw biomass than any other terrestrial or aquatic plant.
- While corn ethanol, soybean biodiesel, and other alternatives have benefits, they also have significant drawbacks including increased food prices, negative environmental impacts, and inability to meet fuel demands at scale.
- Algae biofuel faces challenges to be overcome such as developing robust algae strains, preventing infection, and managing water and nutrient needs, but shows the best overall performance as a renewable transportation fuel that can potentially replace petroleum.
South Africa Paper
South Africa has a diverse population and stable government. The country has experienced apartheid but now has multi-racial elections. Christianity is prominent but traditional African beliefs still influence people. Business meetings emphasize relationship building. Housing ranges from urban to rural dwellings. Pre-paid mobile phones could benefit lower income families by allowing communication despite economic challenges.
Greek theatre research
Ancient Greek drama flourished between 550 and 220 BC in Athens, centered around the festivals honoring Dionysus. Theaters could accommodate large audiences of up to 14,000 people and were open to all social classes, though women could not perform. Plays focused on masculine themes like fighting and bloodshed, suited to their male audiences, and the music performed was similarly masculine and operatic in nature.

Topic:
Reports
are used to describe research findings, analyze those findings, and make recommendations. When writing a report, writers need to do more than present the facts. Writers also need to interpret their results and help readers understand the information they have collected. Research reports are designed to describe research methods, analyze findings, and make recommendations.
Directions:
For this assignment, write a 4-5 page Research Report in which you explore
a controversial, still evolving topic related to digital
citizenship or using technology/
the internet (see list below).

the main point of the report and
offers
specific recommendations.
Your goal is to leave your readers with a clear sense of what you discovered and what should be done about it.
Works Cited/Appendices
: Provide bibliographic information for any sources you have cited in MLA format. Include any other m
aterials you collected or created such as surveys, questionnaires, perhaps charts, graphs, or other documents that your reader might find useful.
A Note on Sources: You should present findings from

Analyzing historical events and their consequences is common research practice. In this essay, choose an historical event that is interesting to you, one that you may even be passionate about. Choose a topic that is debatable and has extensive sourcing. Prior knowledge of the event may be useful, even necessary. This assignment will require that you conduct a reasonable search for documentation and support. Start early and keep good notes. Start with an internet and library search. Good pre-writing protocol requires that you take notes as you read and that you document your sources accurately. Develop a thesis statement that is narrow enough to cover in a short (1700 – 2100) word paper and debatable—make a claim of value, fact, or policy.
Choosing a topic:
You may deal with various aspects of the topic: artistic, geo-political, scientific, moral, aesthetic, cultural, social, or economic. The following suggestions on the attached list may help you choose a topic.
You may wish to take a conservative or a liberal stance on a topic. Be sure that the essay is thesis driven. The essay should be developed according to the methods discussed in class and in the textbook. The paper should be 6 - 8 pages. The paper is worth 200 points. You will be responsible for all phases of the writing process. Research is required (6+ sources cited; websites/magazine/newspaper articles are OK but much less valuable).

Summer Session 2018
DUE DATE:
The assignment is due on 19 August 2018.
OVERVIEW:
Your readers should not only have an understanding of what you want to do, but also be able to gain a
sense of your passion for the topic and be excited about the research’s possible outcomes.
DIRECTIONS:
To complete this assignment, complete the following steps:
Using the template provided, fill in each of the following sections with information described from this
week’s assignment:
1. Introduction – This is where you will give a short introduction to what your research will be about.
2. Background and Significance - This is where you will explain the context of your proposal and
describe, in detail, why it is important. Approach writing this section with the thought that you can’t
assume your readers will know as much about the research problem as you do. Choose what is
relevant to help explain the goals for your study.
3. Literature Review - Place your project within the larger whole of what is currently being explored,
while demonstrating to your readers that your work is original and innovative. Assess what you
believe is missing and state how previous research has failed to adequately examine the issue that
your study addresses.
4. Research Design and Methods - Convince the reader that your overall research design and methods
of analysis will correctly address the problem and that the methods will provide the means to
effectively interpret the potential results. Describe overall research design – be specific about the
methodological approaches you plan to undertake to obtain information, the techniques you would
use to analyze the data, and the tests of external validity to which you commit yourself.
5. Preliminary Suppositions and Implications - The purpose of this section is to argue how and in
what ways you believe your research will refine, revise, or extend existing knowledge in the subject
area under investigation. Describe how the anticipated results will impact future scholarly research,
theory, practice, forms of interventions, or policymaking.
6. Conclusion - The conclusion reiterates the importance or significance of your proposal and provides
a brief summary of the entire study. This should only be one or two paragraphs long, explaining why
the research problem is worth investigating, why your research study is unique, and how it should
advance existing knowledge.
7. Citations - As with any scholarly research paper, you must cite the sources you used in composing
your proposal.
Successful assignments are typed, double-spaced, with one-inch margins and 12-point font. Formatting to
follow example provided.

Thesis/Project Guidelines
The student who plans to graduate in the Spring semester, should begin thinking about the Master’s Project topic as early as possible, but no later than in early Fall of the preceding year. The guidelines below provide basic information on writing a Master’s Project paper. The Chair of the student’s Master’s Committee may have different expectations than the ones spelled out below. The student is responsible for finding out the expectations of his/her Chair at the outset.
Students who wish to write a Master’s Thesis should obtain the specific format guidelines for writing a thesis from the University’s Thesis office. That said, the content and structure of a Master’s Thesis is substantially the same as a Project, so the information below is relevant for writing Master’s Theses as well.
I. Forming the Master’s Committee
The Master’s Committee consists of the Chair and two additional faculty members. The student is responsible for approaching faculty members to form the Master’s Committee, starting with contacting the Chair of the Committee.
It is strongly advisable that the Chair be a faculty member whose course directly pertains to the Master’s project topic and whose course the student has successfully completed. In addition, it would be helpful if the student has taken a 6000-level course with one or both of the committee members and/or they are instructors of fields that closely relate to the Project topic. This committee composition would best support the successful completion of the Project, since the student will then have strong foundation in the relevant field(s) and will be prepared to do research on the specific topic. If the Project topic does not fall in the subjects studied in one of the courses taken by the student, then the student will have to first become proficient in the general field that pertains to the specific topic and then review the narrow literature on the specific question. As a result, this latter approach is more time consuming and difficult to undertake. By the same token, a faculty member may be reluctant to chair such a Master’s Project.
II. Basic Features of a Master’s Project
The Master’s Project is a research paper that is more substantial than a term paper for a 6000- level course. Depending on the topic and methodology, it can range from 25 pages to 75 pages, exclusive of any tables or figures and the list of references. Projects that entail extension of a mathematical model will tend to be shorter than those that rely on applied econometrics or descriptive statistical analysis, or the Projects that rely on interpretive methodologies (for example, history of thought in any field).
The Master’s Project goes beyond a literature review on the narrow topic in a field. It will have to build upon and extend the relevant literature in the field. The relevant literature is likely to be covered in one or more of the 6000-level courses in the Master’s program. The project
should d ...

Sample outline
Robots have played an important role in manufacturing over the past century and will continue to be more important. Early robots were first introduced in automobile factories in 1961 and today fill jobs that are boring, difficult, or dangerous for humans through their ability to lift objects, use tools, and see with cameras. Experiments are underway to develop robots for warfare by assisting the military and for healthcare by fighting germs and delivering medicine, and it is predicted that someday robots will be able to do anything that humans can do.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
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
