For example, The PISA framework (Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development 2006, p. 29) emphasizes three dimensions of the scientific competence characterized as the abilities to Identify scientific issues and questions that could lend themselves to answers based on scientific evidence.
The invention and development of the transistor illustrates this interplay between the practical and the scientific that characterized Bell Labs in its heyday.
My dictionary's fifth definition for black, the most scientific, is "characterized by the absence of light, b: reflecting or transmitting little or no light; c: served without milk or cream".
We also present a few practical applications, using a range of scientific codes characterized by different requirements: from single core execution to MPI parallel execution and execution on GPGPUs.
Psychology and many other academic disciplines are working to maintain sure footing amidst a relative crisis of scientific integrity, characterized in part by incidences of fabricated data and influential studies failing replication.
In a protracted moment of postgenomic scientific uncertainty, characterized by accusations of reductionism and the rise of big data approaches to behavior, Nelson provides a fresh view onto the well-trodden terrain of the laboratory to show how epistemic communities grapple with complexity and contingency in their everyday work.
However, these first theories were set in a scientific landscape characterized by a discouraging scarcity of data at least as seen from our time not only about Native American origins but also concerning the origin and evolution of humanity as a whole.
Innovators with medical and engineering backgrounds may bring scientific method (characterized by experiment and requirement for repeatability) and experience of design process (fuzzy and non-linear) in differing degrees.
We face these public health challenges in a scientific era characterized by the emergence of novel technologies and tools that can improve the diagnosis, prevention, treatment and management of disease, and accelerate advances in personalized medicine.
If we interpret these results in light of the bipolar model of the scientific field as described in Figure 1, what becomes apparent from our interviews is that most of the influential figures we identified tend to think of the improvement of medical education research in terms of a movement toward the scientific practices characterized by the production for producers pole (PP Pole).
Further, in this context, the distinction between a homologous position and a nonhomologous character state also fails, by treating evolution as historical independent data points rather than as a scientific process characterized by a statistical model that is supported by a molecular underpinning.
