Scenario: At the first meeting of an Am
Scenario: At the first meeting of an American History class for new freshmen, the professor identifies 10 students who appear to be the most anxious individuals in the class. Based on their observed behaviors, the professor rates each student’s anxiety level on a 10-point scale. After class, the 10 students are approached and offered an opportunity to participate in a 2-week massage therapy program free of charge. All 10 students accept the offer. At the first class meeting after the massage program, the professor again observes the 10 students and rates each individual’s level of anxiety. The results indicate a significant decrease in anxiety following the 2-week massage therapy program. The professor would like to conclude that the massage program caused a reduction in anxiety.
A.Briefly describe how history might provide an alternative explanation for the reduction in anxiety.
B. Briefly describe how instrumentation might provide an alternative explanation for the reduction in anxiety.
Both “The Adventure of the Speckled Ban
Both “The Adventure of the Speckled Band” and “The Boscombe Valley Mystery” end with Sherlock Holmes solving the case, yet neither story contains an arrest of the guilty party. In “The Adventure of the Speckled Band,” Holmes turns back the swamp adder, which leads to the death of Dr. Roylott. In “The Boscombe Valley Mystery,” Holmes lets Mr. Turner live out the rest of his life in freedom. How does the way Holmes handles the perpetrators of the crimes affect the way you view Holmes? Is he entirely admirable? Is he somehow “above the law”? Is his behavior ethical? Why or why not? Be sure to cite specific examples from each work in your response.

Use the Library, magazine, newspaper, or the Internet to research and find a situation where data have been represented by a visual aid and where you believe the visual aid is being used in a manner that evokes emotion or in a manner that misrepresents these data. Note: Some graphics may not be copied and pasted into the DB thread correctly. Please insert your graphics into a Word document and attach the Word document to your DB post so your classmates are able to see your graphics. Discuss the following:
Explain in detail how you think the data are visually misrepresented or designed to evoke emotions that may cause someone to make an incorrect decision (and be sure to state which emotions).
What types of visual data representations do you find most informative? What about the data representation influences your belief?
What type of visual data representation do you think would best display percentage information? Why do you believe this?
What type of visual data representation do you think would best represent a comparison of similar data from three different companies (e.g., net annual profit for last year)? Choose 3 companies producing similar products, find their net profits for last year, and use your choice of data representation to construct a visual data display to demonstrate your thoughts. Did this visual representation work the way you intended? Explain your answer.
