Careers In Education

create a 10-15 slide PowerPoint presentation for high school students about the costs and benefits of obtaining a degree in education. Research a job within the field of education in which you would be interested. The PowerPoint presentation should include the following:

A description of this job in education including the qualifications and expected salary.
An explanation of the reasons you have chosen this particular job.
A summary of your educational costs over the course of your program and how it compares with the salary you identified.
A summary from the readings that will help you take control of your finances.
List one budgeting strategy you will incorporate, now or in the future.
Options for funding higher education aside from student loans.
Include a title slide and a reference slide (title and reference slides do not count in slide total) that contains 2-3 resources from the required readings, GCU Library, or other credible resources.

To begin we gathered 3 individual petri dishes with lids and put 15 large and 15 small lima beans in each dish. All lima beans used in this experiment were gathered from the same source. Next, we obtained the beetles from a laboratory container which supplied the class for this experiment. 3 randomly chosen female and 2 randomly chosen male bean beetles were placed in each petri dish. This was done by using an aspirator to suck each beetle into a collecting vial, then releasing the beetle into its prearranged petri dish. Finally, the petri dishes were placed in a room-temperature location for 2 weeks to allow enough time for fertilization and oviposition. After 2 weeks, each individual bean was observed under a microscope and examined for eggs. To calculate our results we used the final measurements. Our ending measurements were obtained by observing, through the microscope, which beans had eggs laid on them. We recorded our observations by numbering how many eggs were found on each bean. After observing all 90 lima beans, we returned the beans back to their original groups to determine group averages. After, all 45 small and 45 large beans were placed together in separate categories. From this we were able to use our findings to calculate mean, standard deviation, and the standard error of the mean. After analyzation, we ran a t-test to determine whether size of the lima bean had any influence on the oviposition of C. maculatus. Results Our results were obtained from observing the amount of eggs laid on each individual lima bean within their groups. For group 1 we found 11 eggs oviposited on the small beans, 5 were on the large. In group 2 there were 29 on small, 13 on large. In group 3, 48 on small, 0 on large. In total, 88 eggs were laid on 45 small beans, whereas only 18 eggs were laid on the 45 large beans. This information was used to calculate group averages, visualized in graph 1.
