Find out what the authors learned from their research


https://azhin.org/nau/EGR-186-Homework-Fall-2015 answering specific questions below

1. Notice that the article you are reading is divided into these sections: Title, Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusion, and References. Most research articles are divided into these same sections. The Introduction section of an article will describe the research problem that the authors investigated. Look over the Introduction and summarize the research problem that the author's investigated:

2. Notice that the authors cite a lot of other research articles in the introduction, before they start describing the research that they investigated. It is typical for authors to do this in the Introduction section. Why do you think authors do this? What purpose does it serve?

3. Which section of the article provides a short summary of the entire article?

4. To find out what the authors learned from their research project, you can skip to the Discussion and Conclusions sections of the article. Take a look at those sections. Were the authors successful in solving their research problem? Explain your answer.

5. Why do you think the authors of this article took to the time to write it and get it published?

6. Imagine that you are the owner of a private engineering company and you want to manufacture and sell high-quality, long-lasting, ceramic water filters to people at risk from using unsafe water. Would reading this article be useful to you? Explain why or why not.

7. Do you think this article is a reliable source of information? Think about reasons why or why not. List at least two reasons in any mix of categories below.

Reasons I think this article is likely to be reliable:

Reasons why it is hard for me to tell if this article is reliable:

Reasons why I think this article might not be reliable:

8. What type of publication is the citation below? (Pick from: journal article, conference paper, book, or website.)
