When the 10-minute timer rang, all of the teams’ reports were collected and theinstructor facilitated a debriefing discussion about the ethics of data collection, including theprompts shown in Figure 4. The debriefing lasted about 30 minutes, and afterwards studentsworked in their teams to review two case studies on the ethics of data collection drawn fromwork by Branchaw, Pfund and Rediske17 and the National Academies;18 the case study handoutsused in this exercise are included as Appendix B. Approximately 30 minutes was allocated tothis review of the case studies in small groups, with a final 10-minute large group discussion onthe case study scenarios.

This resistance can be exhibitedby a variety of behaviors that can impede the learning of not only the resistant student, but alsoother students in the class. As teaching practitioners and researchers, our goal in conducting this study was topromote active student knowledge construction by exploring how and why students resist anasynchronous, web-based active learning strategy.

However, this issimply an illusion caused by the relationship of the rotation rate and frame rate. Figure 27bshows the actual motion of the wheel. As the wheel rotates clockwise, a frame is taken.However, since the rotation rate is higher than the frame rate, it appears as if the wheel movedcounter clockwise due to the
