OUTREACH CORE FOR REDLANDS COMMUNITY COLLEGE

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中利用 资源由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 调查员(PI)可能从NIH的另一个来源获得了主要资金， 并因此可以在其他清晰的条目中表示。列出的机构是 该中心不一定是调查人员的机构。 雷德兰兹开发了一个应用研究课程，使他们能够利用新的应用研究设施，并创建一门跨学科的课程。资金被用来加强他们现有的课程实验室，并为新班级购买设备，包括技术和传统方法。 类别：NASC/AGRI 2XX4自然科学应用研究方法论 课程说明： 这门课程是作为科学研究的交叉学科而设计的。每个学生将负责个人的研究项目，包括研究，实验计划和设计，以及现场数据的收集和分析。所要求的科学报告将利用科学方法，提供跨课程维度的经验，包括对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)或教师许可 *每两周一次的进度报告和笔记本 团队授课： 联系人：雷娜·斯拉格尔·戈森 教师：罗恩·克雷珀(生命科学)、萨姆·努斯(农业)、罗伯特·斯威特兰(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： -将科学方法应用于实际研究环境 -保持成功的工作关系，以实现共同目标 -为进一步的学术和职业研究奠定基础 --跨学科科学研究的重要性 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。北加拿大河从广州湖流经中心，流入奥弗霍尔瑟湖，奥弗霍尔瑟湖是俄克拉荷马城大都市地区的水源。草地和农田在河流的两侧，这为水质提供了一个极好的试验场。联络学院、生命科学学院和农业学院将设立考点来指导研究项目。 设备： -Pasco Probeware和Xplorer GLX记录器收集数据 -用于数据收集分析的软件(Data Studio) -传统测试套件 教科书： 彭定国，《理解研究方法》；《要领综述》，第五版。 皮尔恰克出版社，2006年。

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.
