OUTREACH CORE FOR REDLANDS COMMUNITY COLLEGE

该子项目是利用NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的许多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为中心，不一定是研究者所在机构。雷德兰兹开发了一个应用研究类，这将使他们能够利用他们的新的应用研究设施，并创建一个跨学科的课程。资金用于加强现有的课程实验室，并为新课程购买技术和传统方法的设备。 类别：NASC / AGRI 2XX 4自然科学应用研究方法课程描述：本课程旨在作为科学研究的中间方法。每个学生将负责个人研究项目，包括研究，实验计划和设计，以及现场数据的收集和分析。所需的科学报告将利用科学方法，提供跨课程层面的经验，包括研究数据的统计评估。重点领域将包括水文学、农业、生物学、化学、微生物学和技术。 * 先决条件：大学代数（数学1513）或教师的许可 * 双周进度报告和笔记本团队教导：联系教师：Reonna Slagell Gossen教师：罗恩Klepper（生命科学）; Sam Nusz罗伯特·斯威特兰（Robert Sweetland）（物理科学）、特洛伊·米利根（数学）、戴夫·达尔博（微生物学），雷·弗雷泽（化学）结果：- 在实际研究环境中应用科学方法-保持成功的工作关系以实现共同目标-背景：雷德兰兹社区学院的北面是达林顿农业教育和研究中心。北加拿大河从坎顿湖到奥弗霍瑟湖流经市中心，奥弗霍瑟湖是大都市俄克拉荷马州城区的水源。河的两边是草地和农田，这为水质提供了一个很好的试验场。联系学院，生命科学和农业学院将建立测试点，以指导研究项目。 设备：- 用于收集数据的PASCO probeware和Xplorer GLX记录器-用于数据收集分析的软件（Data Studio）-传统测试套件理解研究方法;概述要点，第5版，Pyrczak Publishing，2006.

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. Redlands developed an applied research class that will enable them to utilize their new applied research facility and to create an interdisciplinary course. Monies were utilized to enhance their existing courses laboratories and to purchase equipment for the new class, both technological and traditional methods. Class: NASC / AGRI 2XX4 Methodology of Applied Research in Natural Sciences COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course is designed as an interdisplinary approach to scientific research. Each student will be responsible for individual research projects which include the research, experimental plan and design, and collection and analysis of field data. A required scientific report will utilize the scientific method, offering experience of cross-curricula dimensions including statistical evaluation of research data. Areas of emphasis will include hydrology, agriculture, biology, chemistry, microbiology, and technology. *pre-requiste: college algebra (MATH 1513) or permission of instructor *bi-weekly progress reports and notebook TEAM TAUGHT: Contact Faculty: Reonna Slagell Gossen Faculty: Ron Klepper (life science); Sam Nusz (agriculture), Robert Sweetland (physical science), Troy Milligan (math), Dave Dalbow (microbiology), Ray Frazier (chemistry) OUTCOMES: -apply the scientific method in an actual research setting -maintain successful working relationships to achieve a common goal -build a foundation for further academic and career research -the importance of interdisplinary scientific research BACKGROUND: To the north of Redlands Community College lies the Darlington Agriculture Education and Research Center. The North Canadian River runs through the Center from Canton Lake to Lake Overholser, which is the water source for the greater metropolitan Oklahoma City area. Grassland and farmland are on either side of the river, which provides an excellent test site for water quality. The contact faculty, life science, and agriculture faculty will set up test sites to guide the research projects. EQUIPMENT: -PASCO probeware and Xplorer GLX logger to gather data -software (Data Studio) for data collection analysis -traditional testing kits TEXTBOOK: Patten, M., Understanding Research Methods; An Overview of the Essentials, 5th ed., Pyrczak Publishing, 2006.
