High Hopes: Physical Education for At-Risk Preschoolers in Northeast Colorado
Get PDFThe first few years of life have the most developmental impact on a child, therefore instilling the importance of physical activity best promotes healthy lifestyle behaviors especially those that may be at-risk for delays in the future. Studies have also shown that cognitive development in regards to memory, attention and self-regulation are also improved through participating in physical activity, especially in early childhood development. Previous research supports the importance of physical activity during early childhood although the majority of early childhood education systems are far from meeting the recommended daily amounts of physical activity. Research found that children in early childhood education settings in the United States spent an average of 27 minutes in moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) per day when the US national standard is almost five times that at 120 minutes per day. In Northeastern Colorado, does daily structured physical education for at-risk preschoolers help improve critical skill development essential to this age group? Hopes are that physical education intervention will specifically help at-risk preschoolers and allow them to not fall behind in the coming years. Other studies have shown that the introduction of physical education curriculum in preschool may improve gross motor skills which in turn improve fine motor skills. Hopefully similar interventions can be successful in Northeast Colorado where at risk preschoolers range from developmental delays due to drug and alcohol abuse during pregnancy, previous neglect, being on the autistic spectrum as well as other undiagnosed reasons
The transformation of E. coli using the pGLO plasmid
Get PDFThe experiment was based on taking E. coli and transforming those cells using pGLO plasmid. It was questioned whether colonies will grow after genetic modification using GFP and if so, will the colonies present a fluorescent green glow. With the consideration of GFP and pGLO being normally associated with each other, it was hypothesized that the colonies will present a fluorescent green glow after using biotechnology processes. This experimental process undergone various steps to successfully verify the presence of GFP and then transform the E. coli. PCR amplicon via gel electrophoresis, purification of amplicon sequence, and transformation using agar plates were used to collect the results data. There were four agar plates that were used to collect the data and those four plates contained different contents in regards of pGLO and no pGLO. The data that was collected supported the hypothesis with colonies present on agar plates that contained pGLO which also presented the fluorescent green glow. The results were compared to the hypothesized results of the pGLO agar plates that were generated in the beginning of the transformation process of the E. coli cells. This allowed for a broader understanding compared to the agar plates that did not present any growth and those agar plates that only have growth but no fluorescent green glow
