In 1970‚ in small town Riceville‚ Iowa‚ Mrs. Elliot decided to present an experiment she had started previously with a third grade class after the shooting of Martin Luther King Jr. Mrs. Elliot‚ had always presented the topic of racism in her classes‚ as she felt it was important for her students to truly understand what was occurring. The day after the wrongful killing of MLK Jr.‚ she said she wanted to start an experiment with her class because the predominant white male adult newscasters‚ spoke

atrocities against other women? The usual answer is to portray women guards as more like surrogate men (Sarah Helm). Dr. Herta Oberheuser was one of the most cruel‚ gruesome female doctors in Ravensbrück. Dr. Oberheuser ran many different types of experiments‚ but she had two certain ones she focused mainly on. She would test different types of injections on children‚ such as evipen and oil. After waiting until they either died‚ or still may be fully alive and aware she would continue working on them

“polymer creatures‚” which are the things that are used in experiments about polymers. The polymer creatures‚ made out of two different polymers‚ are both hydrophobic and hydrophilic. This means that while the hydrophilic polymer absorbs water‚ the hydrophobic polymer keeps the shape that the creature was originally in while the water is inside the creature. Another name for this process is osmosis

Objective In this experiment the purpose is to study the period of the pendulum with different masses. Secondly to also study the relationship in the different lengths of the string and how it affects the period. Thirdly to find the different (time) periods in the changes in the arc size. Theory If the pendulum is set ‚ the force of the motion is used to swing back and forth . where the t period is the time the pendulum takes to complete a cycle of oscillation. As t-1/f the complete distance of

of doctors and scientist thinking that they were being taken care of. The men participated in an experiment called the Tuskegee syphilis Experiment were the men would partake in a medical study. This paper will examine how scientist took advantage of the men who participated in this experiment and neglected to tell them the truth. This topic really interest me because it took 40 years into the experiment to see that it was not scientific but a real case of cruelty to innocent men. So how is it that

Microbial Growth of Consumable Products By Bryce Wilmott AIM: To calculate the quantity of observable microbial colonies on the surface of the Agar solid‚ as to determine the presence of microbes in consumable products i.e. yoghurt and blue vein cheese. HYPOTHESIS: Microbial growth will be present in two of the three Agar plates (those containing the food product) due to the suspected presence of microbes‚ whilst the control Agar plate (containing no food products)

Feldler Psych 105 14 October 2014 Blue Eyes vs. Brown Eyes Through the eyes of a kindergarten class‚ prejudice dynamics were shown in a simple yet powerful experiment. On April 5 1968 Jane Elliot preformed the famous experiment in her classroom separating blue-eyed and brown-eyed students. She had separated them by making one eye group inferior to the other making them have certain benefits and better treatment than the other. Then it was

The purpose of this experiment was to determine if cars on Woody Hayes Drive needed additional traffic control to reduce speeding.
