Overarching Themes

WDKA Space Science activities were based on selected topics in matter and energy, the two overarching themes in the first semester of general chemistry. Eight faculty members from the chemistry, geosciences, mathematics, and physics departments took part in this seminar. Since all students in this course take general chemistry in the first year and calculus-based physics in the second year, the activities incorporated vocabulary from these courses. Whenever possible, faculty leading the activities consciously used scientific terms from other... [Pg.181]

In addition, two overarching themes were highlighted throughout the sessions (1) partnership and integration (see... [Pg.13]

An overarching theme of several chapters in this volume is chaos and randomness. The term chaos as it applies to chemistry does not have the negative connotation it does for political or cosmological events. Chaos in chemistry can be very interesting, beautiful, and applicable to important research questions. [Pg.341]

Productivity is a final overarching theme of this book. Here, additive selection can play a multi-faceted role for success. But among all the decisions made in a manufacturing operation, decisions about materials are often the hardest to make, especially by those who are closest to the process. Engineers or technicians who are comfortable with how a certain material runs or performs may feel that adjustments to the material s formulation are unreasonably risky. However, such changes do not have to be stressful and much can be gained at the bottom line. [Pg.19]

The same approach can be used when writing a report. After collecting the facts to do with a situation, the writer of the report can develop overarching themes for what he or she has observed, and organize the material of the report around these themes. [Pg.747]

The University of Minnesota Academic Health Center, although enthusiastic about the work and results of CLARION and its Interprofessional Education and Resource Center, has realized that it must do more. Work is currently under way on an interprofessional edncation model, grounded in patient safety as the overarching theme, with mastery of professional and interprofessional competencies as the ontcomes. Figure 8.1 represents the movement to collaborative, team-based preparation and continning education of health care professionals. [Pg.189]

The workshop was structured around a series of plenary and keynote presentations illuminating the needs and issues of each sector. These, in turn, fueled discussion in breakout sessions focused on defining priorities and linkages. A key outcome of this process was the identification of six critical overarching themes that could serve as a unifying framework in the formulation of strategy... [Pg.8]

Identifying relevant and appropriate experiments for laboratory experiments in diverse courses is the primary challenge for this approach. An overarching theme in the experiments that we have identified as potentially useful in teaching laboratories is a desire to adapt experiments from the recent nanoscience literature. We have found that students respond favorably to experiments that have recently been published in the scientific literature, but as we have discussed previously, there are practical requirements that must be met for laboratory experiences at each level of the curriculum which often make the adaptation of recent literature difficult. [Pg.42]

This section systematizes what has been seen above about electrophoresis in polymer solutions. The overarching theme is the unity of electrophoretic behavior in polymer solutions over a wide range of matrix concentrations and molecular weights. [Pg.59]

Without an overarching meta-narrative, the reader is left with a series of recurring themes, devices, characters, and existential problems that render the happenings in and out of battle as essentially circular the universe... [Pg.65]

Characteristic B was the restructured presentation of chemical concepts about water absorbing materials using structure-property relations as an overarching chemical theme. The text was structured in a reverse way compared to a traditional textbook approach instead of the usual scaling up (from alkanes to networks of polymers) it zoomed in on a specific example. [Pg.175]

Phase 1. Regarding characteristic A, teachers were asked to formulate questions they could expect their students to ask after the introductory experiment. They also needed to check whether such questions could be answered by using the texts about structure-property relations and to devise strategies to handle these questions. Regarding characteristic B, teachers were asked to conduct an alternative introductory student experiment and again to formulate questions which could be expected from students at the end of the experiment. Finally, they should check whether the questions could be answered by a leading, overarching chemical theme. [Pg.175]

In that expanded school mental health is an emerging field, there are countless issues that represent important future directions for the field to advance. As mentioned, improving program quality is perhaps the most important overarching issue for the field. Some of the key themes that should guide the future work include ... [Pg.282]
