Journal Article Review Andrea Kennedy 9/24/15 SCE 4360 Practical Work in Science: Misunderstood and Badly Used. By: Johnathan Osbourne This article tackles the issue of practical work or experimental processes within the science teaching field. Specifically, Osborne questions the usefulness and degree to which it is used. Most science classes are taught in a lab and are only deemed valid if a hands on activity, lab, or experiment is used in teaching the lesson. In my opinion maybe this is because

Akin to Gale, I argue that accidental discoveries do not exist in science because in order for a discovery to occur, the discoverer must have already established an idea of what will be discovered.

ine the morality of a course, at least to help envision the fallout. Fortunately there are valuable touchstone tools for finding our way. We might dive deep into pools of ethical thoughts by such as Bentham, Kant, Rawls and Machiavelli.

Or, more to the point, we can examine codes of standards through public relations guilds such as the IABC

It is challenging to obtain the stress that is a consequent of the contact in an infinitesimal area. Although, the Hertzain stress model is an analytical method developed based on the theory of elasticity and can be applied to obtain the contact stress in the ball bearing. In this method the normal contact force should be known. Calculation of the normal force as a result of the contact of the ball on races is one the important step in

seemingly “scientific conclusion” is not reliable, for drawn from a set of separated examples rather than rigorous logic tests and believable statistics. Modern media tends to love stories for they usually are more interesting than numbers and boring theories listed in the books. But it can leads to huge mistake when we try to conclude general concept in one or a few stories. The reasoning methods might depend too much on single story or life experience that doesn’t have the ability to represent or cover

The constant bombardment of advertisements remains a cultural mainstay today. In this fake press release, the authors of The Onion mockingly imitates modern advertising campaigns. In addition to convoluted diction, the press release also utilizes an appeal to authority and consumer testimonies in order to satirize nonsensical techniques as well as the gullibility of the everyday consumer. The Onion employs a series of convoluted diction in order to overwhelm its audience into believing its product’s

Science and Beauty by Asaac Asimov is a very good and well thought out essay. Its theses can be argued at many different levels and aspects, such as agreeing or disagreeing with the following quote: "The world is a better place because of science and technology . This particular essay can be very convincing towards agreeing with Science. The stars of space are very beautiful to stare and gaze upon. They can be even more intriguing to look at by understanding the scientific nature of these bright
