Proceedings from UWF Course-based Undergraduate Research Experiences (CUREs): Spring 2025 by Emily Harris https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo UWF students who have completed a research project as part of a course can share their work here. en-us 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC 2026-04-16 23:59:58 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f4d8.png This is a General Education course. The majority of the students are Freshmen and Sophomores of all majors. For the online section (10703), the overall objective of their CURE project was to collaborate in small groups on a research project proposal with a literature review with the following objectives: 1) Identifying air quality data and trends at a specific location, and 2) Evaluating potential factors contributing to these air quality trends. eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414015 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414015 To achieve these overarching objectives, students completed the following steps: 1) Formulated a research question, 2.) Completing a literature review, 2) Drafting proposed research methods to address their research question, 3) Submitting a final written report with their literature review and research proposal, and 4.) Presenting their proposed research project summary in a one-slide for public presentation via Padlet and at the 2025 University of West Florida Symposium on April 17. eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414016 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414016 Water Safety and Availability Across the Globe eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414017 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414017 Humidity and Air Quality: A Study For Human Health eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414019 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414019 Air Pollution Poses a Serious Threat eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414020 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414020 Air Quality: Day Time Versus Night Time eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414021 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414021 Understanding Sodium Regulations: Investigating High and Low Tolerance in Organisms eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414022 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414022 Breathing Trouble: Understanding Air Pollution and its Impact eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414023 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414023 Breathing Trouble: Understanding Air Pollution and its Impact eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414024 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414024 Interconnected Impacts: Exploring the Relationship Between COVID-19 and Air Quality eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414026 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414026 Interconnected Impacts: Exploring the Relationship Between COVID-19 and Air Quality eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414027 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414027 Is Air Quality Better in the Rocky Mountains or the Great Smoky Mountains? eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414028 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414028 Breathing Better: Improving AQI in Los Angels eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414029 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414029 The Impact of Population and Industrial Growth On Air Quality in Seattle eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414030 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414030 Impacts of Inversion eharris233 https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414031 2025-04-15 23:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eharris233/nohmhed02zebthoo/wish/3411414031 This is a General Education course.
