Hey Caro, on in my Appendix should I have two different Appendices for the different tests means(recall v. Recognition), or should they both fall under one Appendix.

Thanks

Ps.
Do I need to the data of the "correct words" from the recall, and recognition test too.

Thanks, again...
~Micah

Mr. Caro said...

If you put them in the same, be sure to have a sub label such as Appendix 1a and 1b. Otherwise place them into different ones.

Cheers
Caro

Mr. Caro said...

Micah,

I am not sure I follow...

Do I need more then the target word data

Mr. Caro said...

Micah,

For the Results section yes, but not for the Discussion.

Cheers

I know that we have to say "participants" instead of "subjects" for our studies, but when we're talking about the original studies do we still have to change it? Like, would it be okay to say "Roediger & McDermott's subjects"?

Mr. Caro said...

Hey Charlotte!

Yes...sorry.

Cheers
Caro

Was that a "yes, we have to change it," or a "yes, we can say subjects"?

Mr. Caro said...

Sorry Charlotte, I meant yet change all to participants.

Cheers
Caro

Caro, I'm editing my result section and I was wondering what w/c means.

Thanks

Mr. Caro said...

Hmm, it might be u/c = unclear. Does that work?

Cheers!

Hey Mr.Caro!,
Could I come talk to you before school tomorrow about by IA. I was going through and correcting it, and I realized that I don't understand some of the comments.
Thanks!

Mr. Caro said...

Sure! I look forward to it and apologize for my cryptic comments...

Haha, no worries...Oh, and I have a quick question, do I need to define recall and recognition again in the methods section if I alread defined them in the introduction?

Mr. Caro said...

Hey Saraga!

Nope! You're good just defining them once.

Cheers
Caro

Could you give us an approximation of how many words are in each section? I know only the final word count is important, but it'd be nice to stay on track.

Mr. Caro said...

Charlotte,

Hmm, that is not easy. Maybe 500 for the into, 500 for the discussion, and then about 500 between the results and methods?

Does that help?

Cheers!

Thanks! That helps a lot. Carlisle had a suggested word count per section of the history IA and it really helped me on that.

Mr. Caro said...

Charlotte,

Great! The numbers may vary a bit. Hey cast your vote on the two poles on the main blog page!

Cheers

Hey Caro!, for our NHS volunteer hours, do they all have to be through NHS, or can they be outside of it? Because I've been volunteering for the habitat for humanity, and I was wondering if those hours would count.
Thanks!

Mr. Caro said...

Saraga,

Yes they do count! They count as non-club points.

Cheers!

Weird/cool video Caro.
I like how the lead singer is a rebel and wears red to stand out in the bland city life of black and white. And I think the camara has issues with it's visual cortex, the view switches between mayhem and calm every 30 seconds. It might want to get looked at. Hahaha.

Mr. Caro said...

Sam,

Yeah I like it too! The Stills' first album was so good! Their last one was rather flat.

Did you see the other one on the Song of the Week page. There is another Stills video...it is better than this one!

Cheers
Caro

Caro, I cannot believe you actually put that Wham Christmas song on...I have to listen to that song ALL THE TIME at JC Penney (yes-I do have yet ANOTHER job). It's absolutly sickening. I can't listen to Christmas music anymore...that's all I get to hear for 25-30 hours a week. Ha.
