HR Diagram Lab

By Academic Wizard Blog

HR Diagram Lab

Learning Objective:
To become familiar with one of the most commonly used tools for understanding stars, the HR diagram

Prerequisites: Read Chapter 15

Materials Required

Computer and internet access
Digital camera or scanner
HR Diagram Graph: download and print out, or you may create your own graph but using similar axes
Time Required: approximately 3 hours

Exploration Study and Information
Properties of Stars
The Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram, or HR Diagram, is a graph in which a star’s temperature is plotted against its absolute magnitude. From such a diagram, other information about a star’s properties and life cycle can be determined. A simplified HR Diagram appears in your textbook and is shown below for reference. Note that this diagram shows the different categories of types of stars, such as the Main Sequence, Giants, etc.. In this laboratory, you will construct an HR Diagram using data on the 20 stars that are nearest to our Sun and the 20 brightest stars in our sky. Then you will use the finished diagram to describe the properties and life cycle of stars. And then you will use a simulation where you will follow the life stages of our Sun on this diagram.

Image 1. H-R Diagram. Bennett, J., Donahue, M., Schneider, N., & Voit, M. (2019). Cosmic Perspective, The (9th ed.). Pearson.

Part 1 – Creating Your Own HR Diagram. HR Diagram Lab
Instructions
You will be using Table 1 and Table 2 to plot the 20 nearest and 20 brightest stars on the attached HR diagram. The following tips will be helpful when graphing stars;

Temperature is on the horizontal axis, absolute magnitude is on the vertical axis,
Absolute magnitude decreases as the values become more positive,
Notice the graph lines used to plot temperature are unevenly spaced and that the number of Kelvins between each line is not constant. Carefully check a star’s temperature and the value of its graph line before plotting each star.
Use a plus sign (+) to graph each of the nearest stars (listed in Table 1) on the diagram.
Use a circled dot (o) to graph each of the brightest stars as seen from Earth (listed in Table 2) on the diagram. Show stars that appear on both tables using a square (). Please sign you name on your graph and include the date. HR Diagram Lab

What is the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram and what does it show?,
How do you plot stars (nearest and brightest) on the HR diagram?,
What do the plotted positions of stars reveal about their properties?,
How does the HR diagram illustrate the life cycle of stars, including our Sun?,
Why is the HR diagram an important tool for understanding stellar evolution?

Developing a Research Study

By Academic Wizard Blog

Developing a Research Study

This week, we are learning about developing a research study. It is important to operationally define your variables so that you can accurately observe and measure them. Describe a specific research idea and how you would go about studying that idea. Remember to include the variables involved, a potential hypothesis, possible methods, and the statistical tests needed to analyze your data. Find a published article in a research journal to support your idea.

Do you need to find a articles discussed in recent issues of professional peer-reviewed journals?

Developing a Research Study

To identify the journal or journals you browse, you can use “library services” or journal websites to see what recent topics have been discussed in journals.

Some journals you may look at include: American Journal of Psychology, Behavioral and Brain Sciences, British Journal of Psychology, Evolution and Human Behavior, Journal of Abnormal Psychology, Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, Psychology of Addictive Behaviors, Behavior Research and Therapy, Psychopharmacology, Behavioral Pharmacology, European Journal of Neuroscience, Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, Journal of Experimental Psychology, Learning and Memory, Neuropharmacology

Che

Developing a Research Study

What is the specific research idea?,
What are the independent and dependent variables?,
What is the hypothesis of the study?,
What methods can be used to study the idea?,
Which statistical tests would analyze the data and what published research supports the study?

Comprehensive General Answer

Research Idea
A possible research idea is to study the relationship between sleep quality and academic performance in college students. Many students struggle with balancing coursework and sleep, and understanding this relationship could provide insights into mental health and productivity.
Variables

Independent Variable (IV): Sleep quality, measured using a standardized scale (e.g., the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index).
Dependent Variable (DV): Academic performance, measured by GPA or standardized test scores.
Control Variables: Age, gender, study habits, caffeine intake, and class load, to ensure these factors do not confound results.

Hypothesis
“If college students experience higher quality sleep, then their academic performance will be significantly better compared to students with poor sleep quality.”
Methods
Participants would complete a survey on sleep quality and provide consent to access GPA records. Data collection could occur through university emails or psychology courses. The design would be correlational since sleep cannot be fully manipulated ethically. However, an experimental version could involve assigning groups to different sleep schedules under lab conditions.
Statistical Tests and Support
The data would be analyzed using:

Pearson’s correlation to examine the relationship between sleep quality and GPA.
Multiple regression analysis to control for additional variables (e.g., caffeine, study hours).
If an experimental version is used, an independent-samples t-test could compare academic outcomes between a well-rested group and a sleep-deprived group.

Supporting Research:
A study by Gilbert & Weaver (2010), published in the Journal of American College Health, found a strong association between sleep quality and academic performance in college students, supporting the idea that sleep plays a critical role in cognitive functioning and learning outcomes.

Parkland School Shooting Response

By Academic Wizard Blog

Parkland School Shooting Response

Personal crisis: On February 14, 2018, a mass shooting occurred when 19-year-old Nikolas Cruz opened fire on students and staff at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, part of the Miami metropolitan area, Parkland, Florida, killing 17 people and injuring 18 others.

Purpose

1. To apply principles of community trauma/crisis/disaster assessment in your local community

2. To consider ground-level interventions that a PMHNP can apply in a community emergency/disaster situation

Instructions Parkland School Shooting Response

1. Select a recent crisis/disaster event that occurred in your local area. Briefly describe the event.

The event should be a DSM type of traumatic event that occurred in your local community. This could include, but is not limited to: natural disasters, mass shootings, terrorist attacks, or the death of a local figure that was traumatic to the community (example: murder of J.F.K. would be ok b/c threat to the nation, fear of more attacks, etc. Death of Elvis Presley not ok – upsetting and personally devastating, yes. Traumatic, no.)
Remember that just because something is really difficult does not automatically make it a trauma. Adverse life events are not the same as trauma.
The event must have occurred in your local community and in your lifetime where you were old enough to witness the impact that the event had on the community. If you cannot think of something from your town, move up to something in the next biggest town or something in your state.

2. Use the following questions to reflect on the event:

Reaction – What was the community reaction to the event? Or, did you see strong reactions in individuals?

Source – What was the source of that reaction? Why was it so difficult? – The source of the reaction is often the emotions that are underlying. Are they acting out of fear or rage? Are they caring for the individuals that were harmed because the community is so close and full of love?

Implications – What did this mean for the individual or the community? How was the community changed by this event? What were the outcomes of this event?

3. Let’s say that you were a PMHNP at the time that this event occurred. Develop a plan for intervention. As a PMHNP, what could you do to positively affect this situation, at the individual and community level?

Your plan should include ground-level interventions that the PMHNP could perform in the weeks following the traumatic event. Will you offer therapy or support groups? Education? Is there a specific program that you would start to relieve the immediate needs following the event? Volunteer with disaster relief?
Use the disaster response resources in the module for some initial ideas, but you can expand beyond this if appropriate for your scenario.
This is NOT a work on social issues or policy change. Although these are important issues, the purpose of this work is to focus on the immediate needs after a crisis or disaster. Your plan should not be about advocating for policy change. We’re looking for ground-level interventions that you can do immediately. Parkland School Shooting Response

4. Total assignment should be minimum 2 pgs in essy style with APA format. Cite references as needed, but not required.

What was the community reaction to the Parkland shooting?,
What was the source of these reactions?,
How did the event impact and change the community?,
As a PMHNP what immediate interventions could be implemented for individuals?,
What ground-level community interventions could be applied in the weeks following the event?

1. Human Rights Understanding and Representation
The April 2025 Human Rights Watch report on Panama’s mass expulsion of third-country nationals highlights the tension between state sovereignty and international human rights obligations. The expulsions—often carried out without due process or individual asylum screenings—violate fundamental rights under the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the 1951 Refugee Convention. This event adds to our understanding by underscoring the persistent gap between “official” human rights discourse and on-the-ground realities for migrants.

By Academic Wizard Blog

Activism and Agency Intertwined

Write a 1.5 pages up to 2 pages single-space final essay that brings 3 (you can do more if you wish) weekly themes together around the bigger theme of activism and agency. Make an original argument that ties them all together. To argue for something, you need to first argue against something. Activism is something we all admire (or denigrate) in society, but how is it tied to agency, the ability to shape one’s own life? Do people who have no/little agency have recourse to activism? Does activism deliver or provide much agency? Use themes and materials from the second part of quarter to discuss the activism/agency dyad. In terms of style, your essays are not simple compare papers (they said X and they said y). They are argumentative persuasive essays. You must make an original argument by juxtaposing weekly themes together. You don’t have to compare themes equally; you can prioritize one and use it to discuss the other theme, but the art and skill of writing requires deep analysis and argumentation logic that weaves things together. college-level writing takes practice. Theme 1: racism, sexualiTY, internationalism racism, sexualiTY, internationalism Use the reading “queering the color line within the color” Use lecture slides “lecture week 6 on japan” Theme 2: Palestine, activism, geopolitics Use the reading “spirit in opposition” Use lecture slides “week 8 on palestine” Theme 3: coloniality, authoritarianism, aesthetics Use the reading “Enmeshment aesthetics” Use lecture slides “week 9 on coloniality” Activism and Agency Intertwined

By Academic Wizard Blog

Healthcare Technology for Mr. Jones

Overview

Technology has become an essential part of healthcare. As a nurse, it is important to understand how technologies can impact various aspects of healthcare. To become knowledgeable about

the assorted technologies, you must first be able to identify them and describe their key features. This activity will guide you through the initial steps in choosing and evaluating a technology

for its potential impact on healthcare outcomes.

This assignment will help you with Project One, where you will be required to propose a current healthcare technology solution for a problem.

Scenario

Mr. Jones is a 72-year-old male who lives in a rural area more than an hour away from the nearest healthcare facility. After a motor vehicle accident, he was brought to the emergency

department of a regional hospital by emergency medical services (EMS). Mr. Jones was stabilized and evaluated, and it was determined that he needed to be transferred to the nearest level I

trauma center, where he was admitted for multiple surgeries. He was discharged to a rehab facility to continue his recovery. After his release from the rehab facility, he was scheduled for

several follow-up appointments. Because of the use of an electronic health record (ERH), each of the different medical departments had instant access to real-time information about Mr.

Jones’ personal health information. Consider other healthcare technologies that might have also been used to treat Mr. Jones.

Directions Healthcare Technology for Mr. Jones

Using the Module One Activity Template in the What to Submit section, identify and describe three different information and communication technologies that could have been used in the

scenario. Do not use the EHR as one of your choices. Use at least two scholarly, current (within the last five years) references to support your work. Specifically, you must address the

following rubric criteria:

1. Function: Describe the functions of three different information and communication technologies.

2. Application: Explain how each of the chosen technologies work.

3. Special features: Describe any special features of each of the technologies.

4. Uses: Explain how each technology is used in healthcare.

5. Rationale: Provide a rationale for using each information and communication technology in the scenario.

What to Submit

Submit your completed Module One Activity Template. Your submission should be a 2- to 3-page Word document with a separate reference page that is not part of the page count. Follow

APA Style standards for formatting and citing your sources.
