Part A Part A The goal of your paper is to provide information about one scientist’s life, work, and contributions to science. Choose a scientist to research and write about from this list: John Dalton J. J. Thomson Marie Curie Ernest Rutherford Henry Moseley Niels Bohr Werner Heisenberg Erwin Schrödinger James Chadwick Your paper should answer questions such as these: What was the scientist’s early life like? What was the scientist’s personality like? Did any world events affect the scientist? If yes, what were those events? Did the scientist have to overcome any obstacles to become a scientist? If yes, what were those obstacles? In what way did the scientist investigate the atom? Did the scientist use an observational study, a controlled experiment, or a mathematical model? What new understanding did the scientist achieve that resulted in an update to the atomic model? Which scientist will you write about? Explain why you made that choice. Part B When writing a scientific paper, look for the most credible sources. Science doesn’t show bias, but we humans tend to show bias. There are sites and articles that provide facts without proper scientific evidence. Avoid using information from such sites. You must be able to identify reliable sites so the data in your paper is credible. Use sources that end in .gov (government sites), such as OSTI.gov. They are reliable sources. You can also use sites ending in .edu. They can be deemed trustworthy, but sometimes the information is written by students rather than scientists. Always find out who the author of the article is before proceeding. Some .org and .com sites are credible, but you need to analyze the contents to verify their authenticity. As you review a source, always try to answer these questions: Who authored the article? Is this person a historian or a scientist? What is the purpose of the article? Does the article state facts that can be proved with evidence? Are there opinions in the article? How old is the article? Do other credible sources support the statements in this article? Find some credible websites, and note the information they contain. To get started, open the resources menu on the left, which has a website for each scientist. Then find other sources on your own. Write down two or three sources you’ll use for your paper, and cite them using MLA (Modern Language Association) citation methods . Write one or two sentences stating how the source will help you. In a separate location, take notes from the sources you’ve identified. The notes will provide details for your paper. While taking notes, you may want to use these reading strategies . Using your notes, summarize the main points about your scientist in the table provided. Include one to three points in each cell. Aspect Main Points Scientist’s name, time period, and place Personality World events Obstacles Investigation method and important discovery Other https://app.edmentum.com/content-delivery//resource/91c7319c-0250-4cab-a6d7-02867682a703 https://app.edmentum.com/content-delivery//resource/609f0a5d-b2ce-40bb-ba7f-fef89bf1b517 Create an outline to organize your paper. Write the outline for your paper in the space provided. A written account of someone’s life usually follows chronological order. Be sure to include an introduction and a works cited page at the end. Remember, you’re just structuring your research paper now. You’re not creating the final paper yet. Part E Images help to convey information that might sometimes be very complex if explained in words.Images also simplify certain explanations. List two to three picture resources that you wish to use in your paper. Write one to two sentences explaining what the image shows and where you obtained it. Part F Using your outline and the materials you’ve gathered, write a 500- to 750-word paper using word processing software. Be sure to proofread and revise your writing to catch any errors in grammar, spelling, logic, or organization. Add a works cited page at the end to give credit to your sources.Submit your completed paper along with this activity to your teacher for evaluation.
