Ethics Pre-Test PART 2    1. What repercussions may there be if Jill challenges Brian’s results to Dr. Brey?            2. The  paper  is  already  published,  so  what  options  are  there  in  terms  of  the  manuscript.  Is there anything they can do?        a. How can Jill find out what the options are?        b. Who is responsible if the results are determined to be false?        3.  If Jill brings up the issue to Dr. Brey and he sides with Brian, what can she do?          4. How may Brian’s lab notebook help with issues encountered in this scenario

This is also in line with practices in other bioengineering departments,where biotransport and thermodynamics are addressed in the core curriculum of all sixdepartments we surveyed (for example, one semester for each topic for Rice University andMIT). Java programming has been replaced by an applied math course that teaches MATLABand numerical analysis techniques (Appendix A and B).We also conducted a comparison of how prepared seniors felt for their intended next steps aftergraduation. Although there is expectedly variation from year to year, the data appear to echo thesentiment conveyed by student alumni regarding

This is comparableto the importance of the final project, which counts for 30% of the final course grade. B. RubricWe developed a rubric (Table 2) to evaluate students’ writing, based on the BioTAP (BiologyThesis Assessment Protocol) rubric used for evaluating the writing of honors theses in biology 8.The rubric was intended to help the students to better understand what was expected of them, andto help the faculty provide effective and timely feedback.

Expecting to learnmore about their research project, they also hoped to try out and improve their Chinese languageskills, explore the Chinese culture, and build their resume. Several of them welcomed an excuseto learn more about the land of their family’s heritage. Most acknowledged the lure of beingpaid to (a) do research and (b) travel to China.All participants were made explicitly aware that they were the subjects in a funded researchproject studying the effects of their participation in CURE.
