Conley (2005) stated, "These data may suggest that some women are reducing their work responsibilities in order to start a family." However, she mentions in the conclusion that "respondents are not asked whether they have ever interrupted their careers for family or other reasons."
Although her research initially seems to suggest that women take different career paths because of family responsibilities, there may be other reasons such as gender barriers or financial burdens that may also affect a woman's career track. The initial findings agree that women often take a different track than men, but they do not answer the question of whether the disruptions in a woman's career are primarily because of familial obligations or if they occur for other reasons.

Clardy, a. (2009, June). Distant, online education: effects, principles and practices. Retrieved May 12, 2010 from ERIC - Research Report (ERIC# ED506172).
In "Distant, Online Education: Effects, Principles and Practices" by Clardy (2009), the purpose of the research was to determine whether online or traditional campus courses were more effective. The researcher evaluated the effectiveness of computer aided instructional models and teaching...
He examined three meta-analyses in particular and determined that there were two points on which they agreed. First, "distance education is as effective (if not slightly more so) than traditional classroom based, face-to-face instruction on many measures of academic performance." Secondly, there is "a large range of variance in both forms of educational delivery" (Clardy, 2009).
Clardy (2009) observes that regardless of the method of delivery, pedagogy is still one of the most important components of the learning experience. He suggests that online educational experiences should be improved by analyzing the teaching methods and delivery and determining "well-established researched-based guidelines for the best pedagogical practices."
His final summary concluded that distance education is equally or more effective than ground-based classes. He noted, however, that there were a number of unanswered questions regarding best practices, such as how traditional practices can be adapted to an online format and if there were specific techniques for teaching online students that might be more effective than others. His findings are reasonable, but more research is…
In "Distant, Online Education: Effects, Principles and Practices" by Clardy (2009), the purpose of the research was to determine whether online or traditional campus courses were more effective. The researcher evaluated the effectiveness of computer aided instructional models and teaching methods for online learning by conducting a literature review. He examined three meta-analyses in particular and determined that there were two points on which they agreed. First, "distance education is as effective (if not slightly more so) than traditional classroom based, face-to-face instruction on many measures of academic performance." Secondly, there is "a large range of variance in both forms of educational delivery" (Clardy, 2009).

His findings are reasonable, but more research is needed on best teaching practices before the results can be generalized.
..While older children and adults understand the inherent bias of advertising, younger children do not, and therefore tend to interpret commercial claims and appeals as accurate and truthful information," said psychologist Dale Kunkel, Ph.D., Professor of Communication at the University of California at Santa Barbara and senior author of the task force's scientific report. (Kunkel, et.al, 2004) The Lego ads, when seen by younger children who "do not understand persuasive intent

S.T.E.M. Article Review Pochran, S. (2011, Sept. 21). What's on your genes? Tiny genetic switches create big differences. Science News Magazine. Retrieved from https://student.societyforscience.org/article/what%E2%80%99s-your-genes. This article shows that scientific advances have allowed researchers to significantly modify the physical appearance of offspring through intervention and modification of the genes of the parents. Instead of what is "in" your genes, Pochran (2011) studies modifications which are "on" the genes. She makes this distinction by
