Research Mini Lesson
For your research you will need to find two peer reviewed articles about your drug. Today in class we will be walking through the process of looking through Google Scholar and what to look for when researching scientific articles. Resources for Scientific Research Google Scholar - Like regular google, except it only searches for scientific articles. PDF on the side of results means you can just look at it. Many other articles may be paywalled. Denver Public Library - Denver gives library cards for all residents of Colorado (which you are). If you get their card, you can use their databases. Durango Public Library - Durango’s library also has databases to search, so it would behoove you to have one of these cards too. Reed Library at Fort Lewis - If you are over 18 you can get a card from Fort Lewis and access their library resources remotely. If you aren’t and need access to an article, you can walk over after class and connect to their wifi. If they have access, most of the time the website will recognize this and give you access. Find the Assignment on Google Classroom You will need to fill out the assignment on google classroom over the next few days. It will guide you on what information you will need to research to make your project. Research Phase 1: Now, it’s time to start your initial research. By the end of class, you should have found the following things. Stuck? Try this in google: effects of ________ on the brain. Make sure you are keeping a running list of the urls you reference in your research notes!
SHOW GRAYSON! Research Phase 2: Neurotransmission: Draw the neurotransmission process. What does it LOOK like in your brain when this drug is working? Try to represent it visually (hint, go back and look at the diagrams we filled out together!). Use colors, labels, arrows, multiple drawings to make this clear. Studies: Find at least two studies that have been done about this drug. For each of the studies take notes on:
SHOW LORI OR GRAYSON! HOMEWORK- None! We will complete all research in class.
