1. Introduction – to the article, what is it about? What is the purpose? Who is the author? When was it written… is it ‘seminal’ or dated?
2. Understanding the topic - Introduce the topic(s) covered, discuss definitions – perhaps say why they are important? Why the author has used? Use your other journals to provide additional definitions…
3. Critical Analysis of the journal & topic – answer the ‘analysis questions’ in the critical thinking wheel; what are the important aspects? How are they used? Why are they important – as argued by the author…
4. Critical Analysis of the journal & topic – depending on your journal compare and contrast, identify a debate? Use your bank of research to support this… use a model, if relevant… but explain its importance
5. Strengths – Critical review the advantages of the topic as highlighted by the author? Do you agree? Why? Why not? Use your bank of research i.e. other peer-reviewed journals, books
6. Weaknesses– critical review any drawbacks of the topic as highlighted by the author? Do you agree? Why? Why not? Use your bank of research i.e. other peer-reviewed journals, books
7. Application – find a case-study that links well with your analysis, either supporting what the author is saying or arguing against it? Don’t be descriptive use it to explain its importance…
8. Evaluate – Based on your analysis and application – what could be improved in the article? Assess the author’s discussion on the future of the topic?

for fuel and can then be converted to biodiesel. A group in the UK researched in order to find more use for it. They observed that algae expanded in water, they also observed that it could maintain its structure exploiting the shande nature of the seaweed. The material is believed to have the potential as a multi-purpose and eco-friendly crop. It has a cheap and sustainable synthesis route so long as it stay in water (as a result of that it will rapidly grow). Algae fuel has been estimated to be only…
Kinetic & Potential Energy Roller Coaster Lab Report Madeline Ware p5 Nov. 20, 2013 Introduction: Starting with this lab we constructed a ramp or a 'roller coaster' that would be able to let our marble go from the top of the table, down to the floor. The purpose of this study was to be able to find the kinetic and potential energy of a marble going through a twisted ramp through finding weight, height, time, and velocity. The original question was asking to find ot the kinetic and potential energy…
Prolonged contraction can result in muscle fatigue due to the depletion of ATP. Single action potential produces a twitch about 100msec or less and if a second action potential arrives before the muscle fiber becomes completely relaxed the two twitches add together resulting in greater tension. Summation occurs more as the rate of stimulation increases Motor neurons usually have their action potential in rapid-fire volleys which results in smooth contraction rather than jerky actions of individual…
Manufacturing has selected a structure that will require all employees to use one customer management system. In doing so, Riordan has adopted a structure that closely resembles a bureaucratic nature. Standardization is the key concept in manufacturing. The formal leaders within the Riordan Manufacturing are each responsible for implementing changes that will benefit the structural system for the company. Organizations structures can have significant effects on its members. Potential effects of a bureaucratic…
in an attempt to curtail excessive bonuses, actually contributed to exponential growth in CEO pay witnessed today. Public concern about the large number of mergers in the mid 1980s instigated changes to the tax code. The main concern stemmed from potential conflicts of interest between regulators and investors versus the managers engaging their firms in the mergers. The regulators and investors wanted to ensure that managers were engaging in mergers because it was a financially sound move that would…

understanding of the current power structures within the organization, identifies the appropriate structure to implement change, the qualities of the company culture, and the effect of these on employee behavior. Additionally, Team A will endorse a 12-month change implementation plan, identify possible change resistance, and determine the key performance indicators that measure success. The communication plan will outline appropriate communication channels, reveal potential hurdles, and determine appropriate…
hierarchy. Authority is more centralized. • The functional structure gives managers experience in only one field—their own. Managers do not have the opportunity to see how all the firm's departments work together and understand their interrelationships and interdependence. In the long run, this specialization results in executives with narrow backgrounds and little training handling top management duties. Divisional structure Because managers in large companies may have difficulty keeping…
interventions/effects versus behavioral interventions/effects. 7. What are some of the pros and cons of animal research? Chap 2: Cells and Structures: The Anatomy of the Nervous System 1. Describe the roles of the different parts of a neuron: dendrite, cell body/soma, axon, myelin sheath, nodes of Ranvier, axon terminal. Know which structures are responsible for input, integration, conduction, and output. 2. Explain the roles of sensory neurons, motor neurons, and interneurons. 3. Identify…
