  • “Effective Presentation Strategies: Crafting Engaging Slides and Delivering Impactful Presentations”

    The instructions I will upload. You must read all the requirements very carefully. You should prepare the slides and then I will read the text you write for the presentation.

  • “Protecting Your Brain: The Effects of Drugs and Alcohol on Your Mind and Body”

    There will be two application assignments for the course. Choose a
    topic from class and find a way to share it with a non-psychologist
    audience. Examples of prior applications are a one-page
    article/newsletter for the general public or parents in your school;
    recording a podcast; planning a professional development
    workshop for teachers. You will briefly present your applications to
    the class. This can be done in a group format, just please let me
    know what each group member was responsible for in the
    assignment..
    I would like it to be in the form of a brochure that a D.A.R.E. representative would take to a cschool, to inform the children on specific affecs that drugs and alcohol has on the brain. 
    I will attach slide of the chapter that can be utilized for reference .

  • Title: “The Autonomic Nervous System: Controlling Target Tissues and Organs” Flow Chart: Step 1: Sensory neurons in the autonomic nervous system (ANS) detect changes in the internal or external environment. Step

    Sketch a diagram or a flow chart to explain how does the autonomic nervous system exert its effects on its target tissue and organs. Give a specific example to illustrate your response.

  • “Understanding the Autonomic Nervous System: A Visual Comparison of Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Divisions”

    A one-pager is a way to visually share key ideas and information from what you have learned. When you create a one-pager, you are trying to use both visual symbols and important words to clearly and concisely share your most important takeaways with someone else.
    – compare the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions
    – the roles of the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions – effects of the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions
    – sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions effectors, efferent pathways, and neurotransmitters
    – compare the autonomic nervous system to the somatic nervous system
    Here are a few ideas on how to layout your one-ager:
    – A border or header which somehow represents the key themes from what you have learned
    – An image with a quotation woven into or around it. This image should somehow represent what you consider to be the most important symbol in the unit so far.
    – Images and / or doodles words that represent the key topics from the lessons and notes.
    – Images and / or words that show connections between the key topics and details about them.
    – At least one concept map, data table, graph or sketch that depicts either things you need to know or things that help you understand a topic.
    – Page must be filled; only use one side of the paper.

  • “Debating the Risks and Benefits of a Bioterrorism Research Facility in Boston: Examining the Controversy and Potential Consequences”

    The Boston area is famous worldwide for its cutting-edge research and its leading frontiers in biomedical advances.  Therefore, it is unsurprising that Boston University has received federal government funding and has built a high-security, state-of-the-art Bioterrorism Research Facility right in the heart of Boston.  Many are upset that this laboratory facility is built in the city next to the low socioeconomic neighborhoods, thus putting these neighborhoods at risk if an accident happens.  Others are against it being built at all, saying that biotechnology will get into the hands of the wrong people and promote bioterrorism.  Some do not like the fact that the city and the Mayor of Boston have been so secretive about this project, indicating a possibility that the government is conducting secret genetically engineered organisms/plants to be released into our environment!(?)
    So what do you think?  Should this facility be built somewhere else – maybe in another state?  Was it a mistake to build it at all?  What controls should be placed to guarantee that “mad scientists” don’t genetically modify our food, plants, etc.?  Would you want to work there?  Would you mind living next to that facility?  What happens if a mistake occurs and some experimental organisms somehow get released into the environment?  Should we just slow down biotechnology and keep it out of our food supply and environment just like the organic food farmers say?

  • “Mastering the Basics of [Subject]: A Comprehensive Review and Compilation”

    Essentially this powerpoint is a compilation of all the work we’ve done during the class, I’ve done all the work, and attached all the assignments and pictures used for reference. Some of the pictures, screenshots, and results are in the actual assignments. But everything should be there. I’ve attached the directions directly from the class. I will check this periodically if you have any questions. Also, this teacher has been difficult, so if there are any improvements to my original work being used please feel free to implement.

  • “The Role of Plants in Society: From Agriculture to Medicine”

    this is for my plants and society class. please follow my teacher′s directions, use credible sources, and connect it to the course. I have connected a basic outline and everything I have
