Pt1420 Week 3 Discussion 1

The Scientific Revolution showed that a rise in observations and conclusions became an acceptable source of knowledge and truth, where it had been less so in earlier

Scientific Research and the Unknown Scientific research can be defined using a number of different methods. John M. Barry writes about the scientific process in The Great Influenza, and he uses several different tactics in characterizing it. Barry uses metaphors and unusual syntax in order to characterize scientific research as uncertain and unknown. Barry compares scientific research to venturing into the wilderness in order to characterize it as a journey into the unknown. He begins this comparison by explaining that the best scientists “move deep into a wilderness region where they know almost nothing, where the very tools and techniques needed to clear the wilderness, to bring order to it, do not exist” (Barry 26-29).

Scientific research seems very factual and straight-forward. In reality, science deals with uncertainty, something that, when not used in the right way, creates weaknesses. The uncertainty of scientific research allows scientists to explore intellectually as well as creatively, and “venture into the unknown” to create the known. In his account from The Great Influenza, John M. Barry uses formal diction, strategically placed rhetorical questions, and an appeal to logos to characterize scientific research.

PCELL: Let me give you a little bit of background on the project, and particularly why I am here at Tri-C. I don’t know how familiar you are with some changes in developmental and first year undergraduate mathematics. It used to be that everyone took courses that were kind of on a calculus track, even though they were never going to take calculous unless that fit unto their major. So, they took classes like college algebra, finite math and trig, just because we have been teaching them for decades.

One of the first steps that I had taken when I approached this weeks assignment was to determine how the article had fit into my research topic. While it was difficult as I remained intent on finding the articles that dealt with Transnational Criminal Organizations and Terror groups, the search was made a bit easier with the APUS library. After I had located the articles I believed I was going to be using one of the next steps was to determine the articles content, I had questioned the content as well as what the author was trying to convey. As was described in the lesson this week as well as seeing the example given, I made an outline as well as placed them in my own words. What my criteria was in order to determine what was appropriate was, the keyword as well as content.

A number of basic standards for determining a body of knowledge, methodology, or practice are widely agreed upon by scientists. One of the basic notion is that all experimental results should be reproducible, and able to be verified by other individuals.[13] This standard aim to ensure experiments can be measurably reproduced under the same conditions, allowing further investigation to characterize whether a hypothesis or theory related to given phenomena is valid and reliable. Philosopher Karl Popper (?) in one of his project attempted to draw the line between science and pseudo-science.

Without the acceptance and certainty of uncertainty, it will create fear and tentativeness within the scientist, and we will not progress as a society nor

Scientific research is methodical. Created from a desire to make the unknown known, the “scientific method” was created in the 15th century based on common sense. As Barry analysis the scientific process, he says that the unknown must be made into a tool, even against one’s own ideas and beliefs. However, that concept is tenuous, so Barry uses logical situations to present the idea.

Majority of society believes in the myth of a noble scientist; taking no consideration that scientists are just as human as your average employee. It’s in human nature to make mistakes, to rationalize actions, and to make hard decisions to benefit themselves or others. Science has never been perfect, and most results that are known in the field come from failure. Moreover, it is difficult to meet the expectations of a perfect scientist because conflict occurs when trying to handle the responsibilities of research. There are a plethora of intrinsic and extrinsic factors that may have an effect on an individual.

I choose 3, 4, and 7 for various factors, it also requires individuals to review it as being a logical statement. Which creates relevance to our course reading material. Sustaining minimum validity which can oppose an analogous to and unparalleled arguments if critically thought out. It also can be weighed, or measured as a fact or doubt in one’s daily life. Which may include unforeseen awareness, opinions, and naturalization, economics, and most importantly the integer to an unresolved equation pertaining to individuals who may result to diversity through daily life perspectives and experiences. There statements divides the argument by fallacies, brief reviews set of numbers, critical thinking, analyzing arguments, proposition, mathematics politics, and truth

Superintendent Elliott made some errors in this situation. A couple of the errors were responding to the parent complaint without referring him to the proper level and failing to listen to the principal. The complaint that was made by the parent is something that should have been handled by the building principal. Instead of trying to take care of the situation himself the superintendent he should have led the parent to the correct building level channel first to come to allow them the chance to come to a solution. The building principal should have been able to build a stronger school community relation with this parent by being honest and handling his mistake. The other error that I see that the superintendent made was making a conclusion from just speaking to this one parent and not talking to his principal or looking

I asked Nikki how long has she been attending the school she goes to now. Nikki said that she has been at this school for two months.

Scientific progress is beneficial, but when scientific developments go to far, and too much technology is developed there can be a problems. There is a very fine line that stands between scientifically advanced and too scientifically advanced that millions of people are killed off, and Atwood made the difference very clear. How society reacts to issues depends on the perspective that society has on issues that are happening in the world and how they are going to deal with

However because of Christianity or more likely because of Catholicism, many great scientists were persecuted because of their scientific views and often branded as heretics. Fearing death, they can only conduct experiment in secret. Thus the knowledge they tend to have acquired remains in secret. I am thankful that I am living in the 21st century. I realized that I am quite lucky that data (knowledge) are accessible now unlike before and it is also sad that because of this I took them for

Hi Carson, I have uploaded all the documents and information I have collected so far. Duane gave you access to OneDrive. Please verify if you are able to access the documents. I will still continue to work on the addition information on technical integration points for IBM OpenPages, MetricStream and Rsam. Archer’s integration information is uploaded.
