The Plymouth Student Scientist e-journal

Dr Karen Gresty, Dr Ken Kingston, Dr Tim Auburn, Andrew Edwards

This project established an online journal to showcase high class undergraduate research work from the Faculty of Science. As well as providing a platform for publishing and disseminating student research, the journal also aims to offer resources to both students and staff that can utilize content to enhance the pedagogic use of research in teaching and learning.
The journal was created using Open Journal Systems, open source software made freely available to journals worldwide for the purpose of making open access publishing a viable option.
Current features of the journal include:
High quality assessed final year student research projects and literature reviews
Special interest articles maximising the flexibility offered by an electronic journal, such as poster presentations
Links to useful student resources to enhance the learning experience
An online feedback facility to inform evaluation of the journal as a teaching and learning resource

Collision Simulation Project

By Rob Giles for Maggie Hemsworth & Penny Howard Law & Social Science Litigation Module

This project was designed to help students understand the nature of evidence simulation as used in real life scenarios. I decided that an animated 3D representation of the various witness descriptions of the described event would be the most appropriate way to illustrate the process and how I would have depicted the reconstruction for a real life situation. The application was built using Macromedia Flash but the animation was produced using 3D construction software. The resulting application can illustrate and tie together various witness descriptions of the events and help a jury visualise the events effectively. I can also assist the module by being called in as an expert witness for the student's cross-examination.
