Simulations and games provide three levels of learning: through participating, debriefing and writing. While taking part in the simulation; the participant experiences different types off acts, emotions, relationships, strategies, and feelings. The participant learns to handle various social situations and experience the excitement of discovery. During the debriefing discussions, the student harnesses the vast information and makes sense out of these experiences by sharing his ideas and listening to other's impressions. The debriefer facilitates the discussion by using the four Es of debriefing: events, emotions, empathy, and explanations. The assumption of oral debriefing is that all participants learn the same things at the same time and in the same manner. Journal writing significantly extends the analytical learning process by requiring each participant to organize the material and debrief on an individual basis. The richness of the journal develops frm the writer weaving his own personal thread through his experiences, through other's encounters, and through theoretical concepts. The writing provides a record of each student's learning experience.
Comparative studies are described of the life histories and gonadal development of three sand-dwelling cumaceans from Kames Bay, Isle of Cumbrae, Scotland. Cumopsis goodsiri, an intertidal species, and Iphinöe trispinosa, a sublittoral species, produce two generations per year. An overwintering generation produces young during May and June which mature rapidly and produce young forming the next overwintering generation in August. Pseudocuma longicornis, also a sublittoral species, breeds continuously throughout the year.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
