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.
