This is the link you can start with:
http://www.aps.org/policy/reports/popa-reports/energy/situation.cfm
This is just the starting point to give you an idea about the discussion of energy. You can utilize any online articles, newspapers, scientific journals, etc. as research tools.
I would like the “presentation†to be in power point (if anyone has any problems with that please let me know).The power point should be emailed to me by the due date.Underneath this link on Blackboard with the instructions is a link for Sample Midterm Projects that have been done in the past.

The primary written assignment in this course will be a Persuasive/Argumentative Paper on a topic that demonstrates how Politics/Politicians influence/manipulate or coerce our understanding of Science. The topics are not to be summaries or re-iterations of material from our textbooks or materials utilized in class, but rather original topics that are controversial in nature and allow the student to persuade the reader to consider their point of view. Topics from any field of science may be assigned by the instructor or chosen by the student at the instructor’s discretion. The paper must demonstrate the ability to apply scientific method principles and processes including an understanding of the science, impact of the science through application and demonstration in our daily life and consequences of political interpretation of the science. It is critical that the student develop these skills and knowledge to understand and interpret scientific information and the impact of science on their lives, the environment and society, so that the student is prepared for the 21st century. A research paper outline is due to CANVAS by Mar. 29, 2020
The paper will be 6 pages, double-spaced, 12 point Times New Roman font, and using APA format. You will take a side on an issue and write a paper that attempts to persuade the reader to accept your point of view on the topic.
BELOW: I have put a ROUGH outline of how I thought the paper could go! But whatever direction you believe is best!

This week we watched a short video on how storytelling and the aims of data visualization go hand in hand. The narrator of the video discusses the aims of data visualization. The narrator states that the aims of data visualization is to, “Maximize how quickly and accurately people decode information from graphics.†The narrator also talks about some shortcomings (disadvantage) of the techniques used to create data visualization for storytelling. Select and discuss one of the mentioned shortcomings. Then discuss what we have learned in this course that can assist with overcoming your selected shortcoming. The response must be your own wording and must be from material we have covered in this class only.
Remember your initial post on the main topic should be posted by Wednesday 11:59 PM (EST). Your 2 following posts should be commenting on your classmates’ post on different days by Sunday 11:59 PM (EST). You should end the week with 3 total discussion posts.
A quality post is more than stating, “I agree with you.†Maybe you should state why you agree with your classmate’s post. Additionally, post some examples or find a related topic on the internet or University’s library and comment on it in the discussion post.
