Remember in the first Harry Potter movie when the new Hogwarts students file to the front of the Great Hall and don a tattered sorting hat to determine what house they will live in? There was tension and excitement in the air as they took their turns in full view of their new school community.

Minus the hats, nearly 100 新加坡六合彩开奖结果 students participating in this summer鈥檚 faculty-student research program went through a kind of sorting exercise on the program鈥檚 first day in late May.

In 新加坡六合彩开奖结果鈥檚 鈥済reat鈥� dining hall, the students gathered at small tables to discuss their research topics. 鈥淟oud conversations, lots of questions, pretty intense and engaged,鈥� reports program director and government professor Bob Turner. Hoping to recreate a little Hogwarts magic, he then threw out categories and asked students to stand if they fit: humanities and social sciences, biology, chemistry; sophomores, juniors, seniors; studying frogs, fish, mice, children, things smaller than a penny. The gathering concluded with a bingo game in which the name of a student went in each square鈥擱NA extractions, Omeka Web-page publishing, and scores of others.

By morning鈥檚 end, just as Turner hoped, the students had a fuller appreciation for the totality of the research program鈥攁ll 85 students and 46 faculty members tackling 62 projects from 16 different disciplines. 

Among other things, they learned that their group is:

鈥� working with zebrafish, algae, fruit flies, brown mice, preschool kids, frog eggs, the Vienna Riding School, the Ho Chi Minh Securities Corporation, and Chaucer鈥檚 Canterbury Tales

鈥� tackling societal problems ranging from fetal alcohol syndrome, malaria, obesity, and neurodegenerative disease to PCBs, data encryption, computer processors, and the role of food in culture

鈥� using some of the latest tools and methods, like intraperitoneal injections, the Python and Mathematica programming languages, RNA incubation, the Regional Ocean Modeling system, 鈥渃ultural geography鈥� theories of movement, paleography and codicology, and 3D printing.

鈥� producing data for journal articles, books, conference presentations , Web pages, honors theses, and new courses

Also an important outcome, says Turner: 鈥淭he students learn research in a discipline, but they also learn how their peers do it in other disciplines. At the dinner table or in the residence halls, I imagine questions such as, 鈥榃hat鈥檚 it like to read Middle English all day long?鈥� 鈥榃hat are the legal aspects of computer languages?鈥� 鈥楬ow do you actually detect malaria?鈥� 鈥榃hat do you do all day, and what are your biggest challenges?鈥欌�� He鈥檚 convinced that 鈥渦nderstanding how students in other disciplines are approaching their research projects can open their mind to new ways of thinking about their own. Creative thought really does matter.鈥�

July 1鈥攖he midway point for many of the research teams鈥攚as another gathering to share progress so far. In small tables that broke up and mixed all the teams, participants talked over issues like: What are the challenges in gathering, measuring, and ensuring the validity of your data? Is it harder or easier than you expected? What are the potential sources for error in your analysis? Is there a creative component of your data collection or analysis?
