(Cole, 2001, p. 75) The qualitative scientific theoretical model (Shank, 2006, pp. 97-101) best exemplifies the demands of this theory-based research as qualitative inquiry, i.e. subjective data might not explain the issue, with regard to anything but perception by students and instructors as to the effectiveness of the course. In other words the qualitative scientific theoretical model would best demonstrate an answer to the issue of quality, in a manner than can be generalized. It is accepted that math understanding is the best indicator of how well an individual understands and can work within math concepts, therefore pre-testing through remedial testing and then a comparison of post-testing (a repeat of the progressive computer-based math placement test) would better indicate success and/or failure of the students to grasp math concepts. The results would then allow the two classes, face-to-face vs. online to be compared on an equal footing. The hope would be that at least 100 student participants (from the two courses) could be compared to create a large enough sample to adequately analyze the theory ie. that remedial math education is better served by face-to-face instruction. This thesis will serve to pose questions for further research and will help instructors better understand the pros and cons of online vs. face-to-face teaching.

disregarded domains of learning that are associated with learning science in the classroom. The article's research was premised on the idea that although students may be exposed to other types of learning found within the varying domains, and that most education is focused on high stakes examinations.

IT measurements and the associated processes?

Forensic anthropology is a relatively new field in anthropology. When it was first recognized as a forensic science about thirty years ago, there were only six forensic anthropologists, all of whom knew each other (Guntzel, 2004). The role of forensic anthropology in police work is to give investigators specific information about an unknown individual that they can use to help with identification. When the investigators have such information as age,
