¶ … students' absence. My first hypothesis is that the food was contaminated. I base my evidence on the following: Spikes of absence for band class in all four schools fall generally in the middle of the month and towards the ends of the month with a wide outbreak of the flue occurring during that time as well as evidence indicating that the food was improperly cared for.
For at least three schools (Roosevelt, Truman and Jackson) spokes of absence seem to be highest in the Band class particularly around 5/18 (with Jackson showing 33.3 absences on that day, 23.3 and 17.3 on consequent days until gradual reduction is again achieved. In Roosevelt, there are a similar high number of absences on 5/18 with 25.0. Truman's band class shows a huge number of absence on 5/18...
3 on consequent days. Looking at the information on the school site tells me that problems with food being improperly monitored occurred during that month. I suggest that all three schools in question, where absence was high likely share the same cook, or had a substitute cook during that month, and that food poisoning occurred which led to outbreak of disease and high range of absence.
My hypothesis can be tested in the following way:
1. Was the cook absent during that month
2. Was there a substitute cook
3. Did all absent students have one type of food
4. How was that food cooked
5. If portions of food are left, examine it for food contamination
6. Did any…
If possible, the research could be continued over six years, tracing the graduation rates of three classes in direct relation to the amount of classes missed, studying the trends of missing lectures. Expected Outcomes of the Study It makes reasonable sense to believe that students, more stressed in academia now than ever before, are missing lectures not because of lack of respect for their teachers and learning environments, but instead because

What Factors in Students Training Enhance Retention Post Placement in the Aged Care Sector? Thanks to medical research, better provision of medical assistance and increased lifestyle options, individuals are living longer and in better health than previous generations; however, the Australian population continues to age, largely due to decreasing birth rates and increased life expectancy. Not
This research will fill in a gap that was discovered in the literature review. There have been many, even in an academic setting, that have made comments regarding the effects of email on the student environment. However, there have been no significant studies to substantiate these claims. This study will fill in the existing gap in research and will examine the actual importance of email to the academic setting. Chapter
Management Strategy to Utilize Meta-Analysis Technique for Nuclear Energy and Waste Disposal and Create Social Sustainability This research proposal explores the link between public perceptions of nuclear power, how those perceptions are formed, and what influence those opinions have on energy policy. These issues are important in light of two realities. First, nuclear energy is declining in its share of global energy. Second, nuclear energy offers what might well be
" (Bean, 2006) Bean notes that a "dramatic decline in the influence of father involvement has been shown to be correlated with fathers' maintaining a residence other than that of their children." (2006) According to the work entitled: "Theoretical Models of Juvenile Delinquency" developmental pathways of adolescent delinquency has been examined by researcher "through both longitudinal research and meta-analyses." (Theoretical Models of Juvenile Delinquency, nd) Resulting from these empirical investigations are
This study used quantitative techniques to measure the dependent variables, but the answers obtained have a high level of subjectivity present in them. Confounding Variables Aside from the independent and dependent variables, almost every study has a number of factors present that affect the results obtained in the study and the ability to interpret them. In this study, there are a number of factors that must be addressed in regards to
