The second system helps GE researchers to develop new plastics by providing a common repository for sharing knowledge about experiments and designing new experiments.
But what does it mean to acquire knowledge about experiments?
In other words, certain features might allow students to call on particular knowledge about experiments in one domain, but they may have trouble transferring what they know to a completely different domain (Chen and Klahr, 1999; Barnett and Ceci, 2002; Sternberg, 2003).
The contents of EMAGE can be abstracted to knowledge about an experiment and its conclusion.
Next, we incorporate into the model gene expression levels and possibly other knowledge about the experiments.
How about "experimenting" with that?
Most students, however, realized that the reading contributed to their knowledge about methods and experiments in the field of cell biology, that it was necessary to identify an interesting and challenging gap to focus their research on, and that it was helpful to evaluate and qualify novel findings that researchers presented.
Chris Kelty argues that the rise of DIY-Bio, along with patient advocacy groups and the open-source software movement, simultaneously changes what it means to be part of the public: "Being in the public is not passive … but aggressively active, and about knowledge, access, experiment and involvement" (Kelty 2010, 8).
Interestingly, sequence knowledge was below the subjective threshold on the sequence awareness questionnaire: participants exhibited little or no knowledge about the target sequence (experiment 2, M rating on the awareness questionnaire = 1.9, S.E.M. = 0.41; experiment 3, M rating on the awareness questionnaire = 1.6, S.E.M. = 0.32; for rating scale, see Methods).
For optimal planning and design of experiments, knowledge about the capabilities and limitations of the imaging system is required.
