Examination Of High School Students' Understanding Of Geometry, Brantley Grant Pierce
Examination Of High School Students' Understanding Of Geometry, Brantley Grant Pierce
Master's Theses
Not every student learns geometry instruction the same. Inside today’s classroom, one will find a diverse collection of students with different learning styles, background knowledge, and cognitive abilities. Students with high cognitive skills may sit next to those who struggle to maintain the material of a single subject. It is the job of an educator to accept the students as they are and guide them through a successful academic journey. This process is called Differentiated Instruction. Gregory and Chapman, authors of Differentiated Instructional Strategies: One Size Doesn’t Fit All, state that the term differentiation is a philosophy that allows instructors …

A Study In Retention In Fundamental Operations In Algebra, George Adams
A Study In Retention In Fundamental Operations In Algebra, George Adams
Master's Theses
The problem is to discover as nearly as possible, "The retention of sophomores, who the preceding year had taken algebra, in the four fundamental arithmetic operations of positive and negative numbers.” The four fundamental arithmetic operations are namely: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. In making computations with positive and negative numbers there are four possibilities involving cases concerning a positive and a negative, a negative and a positive, two negative, and two positive numbers. Negative numbers are numbers having a minus value and positive numbers are numbers which have a plus value.

A Study Of The Effect Of Home Work On Seventh And Eighth Grade Achievement In Arithmetic, M. Remigia Neder Sr.
Master's Theses
Until rather recent years home study or home work has been an integral part of the school program. Simultaneous with the increase in the complexities of our modern social life, the school curriculum of today has been undergoing a gradual change. Such outstanding social occurrences of modern times as industrialization, urbanization of our people, and newer methods in transportation and communication have been greatly accountable for the transfer of so many of the early responsibilities of the home to the school. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of homework on seventh and eighth grade achievement in …

A Comparison In The Efficiency Of The Teaching Of Arithmetic In Grades Four To Eight, Inclusive, In The Standard And Non-Standard, One-Room Rural Schools Of Western Kansas, Roy Ernest Mohr
Master's Theses
Considerable discussion regarding the effectiveness of the teaching in the one-room rural school versus the standard school has been going on for some time, and it is hoped that the results of this study will throw some light on this subject which appears to be more or less perplexing at the present time. Education has become a science and its accomplishments can be quite definitely measured by the use of standardized tests. Before their time, the task of comparing schools in educational achievement was practically impossible; with age-grade and achievement norms scientifically determined, it became a simple matter to make …
