preparation before publication. Choosing a research topic Choosing a research topic can be a difficult task. Even within the guidelines of an assigned topic, there can be multiple pathways to focus on. Here are some things to consider when narrowing down your topic: Keep in mind that choosing a research topic is research! What are the topical guidelines your instructor has put in place? Does your topic need to adhere to a certain time period, individual, theory, etc.? Is there a particular subject that

. These types of projects demonstrate a student’s ability to think like a scientist and connect theory to practice. Beyond that, it trains students to think critically. “It’s one of the ways they develop habits of mind that are connected to being good citizens, too, because research questions are rarely neat,” Killen said. The process of developing a hypothesis, and determining how to explore that question and collect data, may look like a method useful only in academic research. However, Killen

, meaning the vast distances and non reproducible environment, I wanted to investigate how astronomers obtain this information about our universe. I explore and summarize the theory and experimental process that has already been implemented and published regarding the evolution of a star and how we determine the ages of stars using both Hertzsprung-Russell diagrams and absorption spectra (which is linked to metallicity). When specifically looking at the sun, the tools astronomers use are in depth

things macroeconomic, Wurm’s research topics vary widely, but a recurring theme appears to be the effect of local developments on larger economies, and vice versa. “Personally, I don’t see much value in theory for theory’s sake,” Wurm concludes. “The objective is always policy relevance.” Zach Powers '10 Zach Powers '10 worked as PLU's media and content manager until April 2017.

read works by these influential geographers and to observe the convergence of social theory and social action. Before learning about the significance of the 2011 ‘toma’ de la FAU, I had this misconception that the weekly, bi-weekly, or sometimes monthly marches were the most important expression of the student movement. Don’t get me wrong, the actions in the streets are absolutely vital. However, they are relatively temporary compared to the more permanent nature of a ‘toma.’ The more I thought

have evidence that in the city people in most of the households were actually making their own tools. At first I wanted to get a scene of somebody flaking stone to make tools, so that’s what I got (see below). Stasinos: He came in the first day of the class, and he actually demonstrated making an arrowhead in front of my class. While he was doing that, I took photos and posted them on Sakai for the students to access later, so that they can draw out the scene based on the pictures I took. The guy

foreign languages—particularly the “soft” ones such as Spanish and French—while men gravitate to the “hard” languages (German, Russian) and other academic subjects such as science and math. In the larger university setting, most foreign language departments have traditionally been split between (mostly male) tenured and tenure-track faculty members engaged in original research in literature or literary theory, and (mostly female) non-tenured lecturers and teaching assistants responsible for the

experience that prioritizes one-on-one learning in a practitioner-focused environment. Participants will choose between two concentrations, Applied Sport Psychology and Applied Exercise Science, and every student will pair with a faculty advisor to complete an applied, evidence-based final project before graduation. “We just have incredible faculty right now that, quite honestly, are unmatched. I mean that sincerely,” said Dr. Colleen Hacker, a PLU Kinesiology professor and medal-winning Olympics mental
