Is this going to include all different types of students, meaning students taking AP, Honors, or regular classes, or will you you focus in on one particular group?]]> 2020-09-24 16:02:14 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776421626 21madriscoll https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776425125 How will you define and assess cognitive ability? Will you be giving the students a test that assesses their problem-solving ability or something of the sort? If so, how will you study the effect of stress on this? There may be ethical concerns if you plan on attempting to stress them out while taking a test to study this.]]> 2020-09-24 16:02:59 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776425125 21tasabbagh https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776425240 Will this be set up as 2 different studies? For example, will you be looking at cognitive ability in one study and then looking at the impact of stress as something different and then tie them together? If not, do you have a way to assess both of these variables at the same time?]]> 2020-09-24 16:03:01 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776425240 21modifranco https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776427121 I think your question should be cleaned up a little bit. It is kind of hard to understand eactly what you are trying to ask. The overall idea I think I understand from your question is good.

How would your measurement of cognative ability differ from a school's gpa system and how would it be properly measured? Also, would this focus on all students or just high school students?]]> 2020-09-24 16:03:28 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776427371 21resovchen https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776428913 Is your study going to include an underlying assumption that weighted GPA's tell more about an individuals cognitive ability / stress levels than an unweighted GPA?

How will cognitive ability be defined? - what type of test/experiment will be used to draw conclusions about ones 'cognitive ability' ]]> 2020-09-24 16:03:48 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776428913 21modifranco https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776432341 are you assuming that GPA is causing stress on all students? I think if that is the case you need to focus on a specific group of students. There are any types of students ranging from those who do nothing, to those who try hard all the time. A specific group to focus on can make this question I think stronger because results will not vary as much ]]> 2020-09-24 16:04:31 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776432341 21caroscoe https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776433677 How will you determine or measure cognitive ability? Are you focusing on high school as a whole or and individual group?]]> 2020-09-24 16:04:47 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776433677 Will you account for other factors in a high school students life that might cause stress besides GPA 21chhantus https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776480644 2020-09-24 16:14:09 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776480644 Are you looking at only Mayfield High School because different schools have different scales? 21ledaher https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776485260 I think it would be better to look at letter grades and say what class it is instead of using GPA. ]]> 2020-09-24 16:15:07 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776485260 21alochi https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776605302 The topic is interesting for sure, but cognitive ability is something difficult to measure. Even if you created a test (or used one that was already made) to test cognitive ability, it may not be telling, as the test taker could be stronger in other areas.]]> 2020-09-24 16:39:32 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/776605302 I think a GPA can be too broad because that accounts for all your classes. Are you able to focus on each class or assess them separately? ibellasugar https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/779648673 2020-09-25 15:30:16 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/s41wmkby1vvgj6sz/wish/779648673
