Assigned goal-setting

Use the baseline measure to set a target for quality improvement these should be participative goal-setting sessions rather than a goal which is assigned by the observer... 

X-ray crystal stmcture of hydroperoxo-ferric complex in CPO was determined as a result of cryogenic photoreduction of oxy-ferrous precursor during data collection in the synchrotron beam.133 Three data sets with low, medium, and high dose have been prepared from the data collected on multiple crystals with the goal to resolve the structures with well-defined redox state. Because of the fast reduction, the low-dose data set already had sufficient contribution of Compound 0, and the stmcture of Compound III could not be determined. The medium-dose data set was resolved to 1.75 A resolution and revealed a well-defined 0-0 ligand with 100% occupancy. Assignment of this stmcture to hydroperoxo- ferric versus peroxo-ferric was done based on the QM/MM calculation. 

Fig. 1. (A) Cognitive processes in problem solving. (B) Experimental set up. Each monkey, faced a maze on a screen, was required to plan a stepwise motion of the cursor from the starting position to the final goal using two hand-operated controllers. The direction of cursor movement on the screen was linked to the movements of the controllers in three assignments in the lower panel.

Our goal was to observe the use of the DVD by students as they learned from it in preparation for their assignment. Keeping with the desire to study students usage in a naturalistic setting, the use of video cameras was ruled out as too intrusive. Due to the encrypted nature of DVD video, standard screen capture software was unusable. Therefore, the low-tech solution of VCR recordings was used to capture video output...
