Wk. 3 Discussion For this week’s discussion we have been tasked with comparing the characteristics of appropriate research designs and recommend a qualitative research design that would facilitate answering the instructor’s additional questions: : (a) How do their students actually feel about the intervention? and (b) How do students view the influence of the intervention on their learning inside and outside of the classroom (if applicable)? When it comes to qualitative research methods there are several, however the three most common are participant observation, in-depth interviews and focus groups. Participant observation in a social setting tends to aim to gain a means of better understanding within a given group of individuals, their experiences and observations and collects data. In-depth interviews are utilized for collecting data on individual’s personal history, perspectives, and experiences. This is used particularly with sensitive information. Focus groups allow for data collection through group interview processes and tend to related to specific topics. (Frost, 2011) In addition to our week two scenario the instructors would like to answer additional questions of how the students actually feel about the intervention as well as how the students view the influence of the intervention on their learning in the classroom as well as outside of the classroom. This relates to the phenomenology research design. Phenomenology focuses on individual thoughts and feelings and its purpose is to dive in and determine what feelings or experiences the students have in relation to the intervention. This method has several different characteristics: · It seeks to understand how people experience a particular situation or phenomenon. · It is conducted primarily through in-depth conversations and interviews; however, some studies may collect data from diaries, drawings, or observation. · Small samples sizes, often 10 or less participants, are common in phenomenological studies. · Interview questions are open-ended to allow the participants to fully describe the experience from their own view point. · Phenomenology is centered on the participants’ experiences with no regard to social or cultural norms, traditions, or preconceived ideas about the experience. · It focuses on these four aspects of a lived experience: lived spaced, lived body, lived time, and lived human relations. · Data collected is qualitative and analysis includes an attempt to identify themes or make generalizations regarding how a particular phenomenon is actually perceived or experienced. (CIRT, 2019) Phenomenological research studies tend to be interested in the life experiences of human and would relate directly to answering the instructors additional research questions. (CIRT, 2019) According to CIRT 2019, “A phenomenological study attempts to set aside biases and preconceived assumptions about human experiences, feelings, and responses to a particular situation. It allows th.

COLLEGE PHYSICS LAB REPORT STUDENTS NAME ANALYSIS OF A BUBBLE CHAMBER PICTURE SUPERVISED BY: 19/05/2020 1. Introduction A bubble chamber is a vessel filled with a superheated transparent liquid (most often liquid hydrogen) used to detect electrically charged particles moving through it. It was invented in 1952 by Donald A. Glaser, for which he was awarded the 1960 Nobel Prize in Physics. A convenient way to study the properties of the fundamental subatomic particles is through observation of their bubble trails, or tracks, in a bubble chamber. Using measurements made directly on a bubble chamber photograph, we can often identify the particles from their tracks and calculate their masses and other properties. In a typical experiment, a beam of a particular type of particle is sent from an accelerator into a bubble chamber, which is a large liquid-filled vessel. To simplify the analysis of the data, the liquid used is often hydrogen, the simplest element. The use of liquid hydrogen, while it simplifies the analysis, complicates the experiment itself, since hydrogen, a gas at room temperature, liquefies only when cooled to -246◦C. For charged particles to leave tracks in passing through the chamber, the liquid must be in a “super-heated” state, in which the slightest disturbance causes boiling to occur. In practice, this is accomplished by expanding the vapor above the liquid with a piston a few thousandths of a second before the particles enter the chamber. 2. Methods 2.1 Materials needed: 1. student worksheet per student 2. Ruler 3. Scissors 4. Glue stick 5. Pocket calculator 2.2 Procedures 2.2.1 Calculation of the X Particle’s Mass. Make measurements on each of the photographs. In particular, for each of the circled events measure these four quantities: · `Σ - The length of the Σ track, · θ - the angle between the Σ− and π− track, · s - the sagitta of the π− track, · `π - The chord length of the π− track. Your values for the event should be close to those given in the sample input. Run the program using each set of measurements, and tabulate the computed X0 mass from each event. Compute an average of the calculated masses and find the average deviation, expressing your result as Mx ±∆Mx. Compare your final result with some known neutral particles listed below and identify the X0 particle based on this comparison. Particlemass (in MeV/c2) π0 135 K0 498 n 940 Λ0 1116 Σ0 1192 Ξ0 1315 2.2.2 Determination of the Angle θ. The angle θ between the π− and Σ− momentum vectors can be determined by drawing tangents to the π− and Σ− tracks at the point of the Σ− decay. We can then measure the angle between the tangents using a protractor. We can show.

Collins did not understand the events that led to the reasoning why and actions how Wells Fargo conveyed victories, achievements, and accomplishments. Therefore, Collins was incorrect. Wells Fargo as a company was able to achieve earning because of their successful strategies in profit revenue or turnover for each employee. The Good to Great article brought up that many people were surprised when finding out what made companies successful especially in relation to the leadership (Collins, 2001). Our text states that it is difficult for companies to find good ethical leaders because they tend to be more expensive (Meese, Ortmeier, 2001). Unethical leadership is sure to bring the downfall of any business; it is impossible to have a successful business if there are unethical practices, the employees are also bound to begin these practices making it difficult for the company to hold their end of their promises to their customers or members. "He who oppresses the poor to make more for himself or who gives to the rich, will only come to poverty" (Proverbs 22:16). Collins, J. (2001). Good to great: Why some companies make the leap and others don't. New York, NY: Harper Collins. Mees, E., Ortmeier, P. (2001). Leadership, ethics, and policing:Challenges for the 21st century. Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice Hall 250-word reply to classmate threads. The reply requires a minimum of 1 properly formatted citation. Each reply must be completed by you, the individual student. Additionally, each thread and reply must reflect a solid Christian worldview through the use of at least 1 Holy Bible reference. Responding to a classmate’s post requires both the addition of new ideas and analysis. A particular point made by the classmate must be addressed and built upon by your analysis in order to move the conversation forward . Thus, the response post is a rigorous assignment that requires you to build upon initial posts to develop deeper and more thorough discussion of the ideas introduced in the initial posts. As such, reply posts that merely affirm, restate, or unprofessionally quarrel with the previous post(s) and fail to make a valuable, substantive contribution to the discussion will receive appropriate point deductions. .

Define civilization. Do we really need it in order to survive and prosper on this planet? The real question is whether we can live above subsistence without the technological innovations that cities generate. Moreover, the question is not as frivolous as it may seem at first glance. Many cultures throughout human history consciously decided not to take the route toward nucleated settlements and the resultant consequences. The Celts represent one example from the time line of our course of a people who preferred not to have cities. The Avars, a Turkic-speaking people from Central Asia, were pastoral nomads who acquired cities during the course of their conquests, yet they “used” cities in ways that would strike average city dwellers as most strange. Section 2.1 of your textbook, World History: The Human Experience to 1500 , presents nine characteristics commonly associated with civilizations. Choose one society from the Week One Civilization Tour , which includes Mesopotamian, Olmec, Egyptian, Harappan, and Ancient Chinese societies. Based on at least two of the characteristics listed in Section 2.1, explain why your chosen society can be considered a civilization. Provide specific examples drawn from this week’s learning materials to support your claims. Cite all sources according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center , using both in-text citations and providing full references at the bottom of your post.
